- In anticipation of megaparsec 7, which removes support for stacks of
include files (as far as I can tell)
- Intended for the 'StateT Journal' layer of the parser
- A stack of include files would be better in a 'ReaderT' layer, but I
don't want to add another layer to the parser
- Intended for detecting cycles of include files
- Potential issue: for proper error messages for include file cycles,
we must remember to provide the filepath of the root journal file via
the initial journal state passed to a 'JournalParser'; I imagine
that we may forget to do so because in all other cases it is okay
not to do so.
A bunch of account sorting changes that got intermingled.
First, account codes have been dropped. They can still be parsed and
will be ignored, for now. I don't know if anyone used them.
Instead, account display order is now controlled by the order of account
directives, if any. From the mail list:
I'd like to drop account codes, introduced in hledger 1.9 to control
the display order of accounts. In my experience,
- they are tedious to maintain
- they duplicate/compete with the natural tendency to arrange account
directives to match your mental chart of accounts
- they duplicate/compete with the tree structure created by account
names
and it gets worse if you think about using them more extensively,
eg to classify accounts by type.
Instead, I plan to just let the position (parse order) of account
directives determine the display order of those declared accounts.
Undeclared accounts will be displayed after declared accounts,
sorted alphabetically as usual.
Second, the various account sorting modes have been implemented more
widely and more correctly. All sorting modes (alphabetically, by account
declaration, by amount) should now work correctly in almost all commands
and modes (non-tabular and tabular balance reports, tree and flat modes,
the accounts command). Sorting bugs have been fixed, eg #875.
Only the budget report (balance --budget) does not yet support sorting.
Comprehensive functional tests for sorting in the accounts and balance
commands have been added. If you are confused by some sorting behaviour,
studying these tests is recommended, as sorting gets tricky.
Custom Show instances were obscuring important details in test failure
output again. The best policy seems to be: stick with default derived
Show instances as far as possible, but when necessary customize them
to conform to haskell syntax so pretty-show can do its thing (eg when
they contain Day values, cf https://github.com/haskell/time/issues/101).
This makes skipping/unskipping tests easier, and improves readability
a bit.
Note it's also possible to just write the test name with no preceding
function, when the type is constrained (see Journal.hs).
Amount's default show instance hid important details, making eg test
failures hard to understand. Showing full detail required increasing
the debug level which was inconvenient.
Now it has a single show instance which shows more information, is
fairly compact, and is pretty-printable with pretty-show.
Ellipses (..) in the output indicate where fields are
- not shown in full detail, and/or
- shown in pseudo syntax (double quoted) to work with pretty-show.
ghci> usd 1
OLD:
Amount {acommodity="$", aquantity=1.00, ..}
NEW:
Amount {acommodity = "$", aquantity = 1.00, aprice = NoPrice, astyle = AmountStyle "L False 2 Just '.' Nothing..", amultiplier = False}
MixedAmount's show instance is unchanged, but showMixedAmountDebug
is affected by this change:
ghci> putStrLn $ showMixedAmountDebug $ Mixed [usd 1]
OLD:
Mixed [Amount {acommodity="$", aquantity=1.00, aprice=, astyle=AmountStyle {ascommodityside = L, ascommodityspaced = False, asprecision = 2, asdecimalpoint = Just '.', asdigitgroups = Nothing}}]
NEW:
Mixed [Amount {acommodity="$", aquantity=1.00, aprice=, astyle=AmountStyle "L False 2 Just '.' Nothing.."}]
This removes transactionModifierToFunction's extra query parameter;
the rewrite command sets it in the TransactionModifier instead, which
I think is equivalent. I had to change one functional test, but it
seems correct now, so perhaps it wasn't working right before ?
For Data/Dates.hs in particular:
- Changed `SimpleTextParser` to `TextParser m` for all parsers
- Changed `string` to the case-insensitive `string'` to match the
behaviour of `T.toLower` found in `parsePeriodExpr`
- export `periodexprp` for "direct" use
base-compat-batteries provides the same API across more ghc versions
than base-compat does, at the cost of more dependencies. Eg it exports
Prelude.Compat ((<>)) with ghc 7.10/base 4.8, which we expect.
My belief is that several of our deps already require it so the added
cost is not too great. We should probably go back to base-compat when
possible though, eg when we stop supporting ghc 7.10.
The new version of our package set apparently contains both base-compat and
base-compat-batteries in its transitive closure. This breaks the doctest suite,
which just imports everything into scope when the tests are run, thereby making
module names like Prelude.Compat ambiguous.
It now works slightly differently. Eg:
- <unbudgeted>'s subaccounts are hidden by default
- --show-unbudgeted shows all unbudgeted accounts, including subaccounts of budgeted parents
- --show-unbudgeted doesn't affect the grouping under <unbudgeted>
IMHO it's a nice simplification and increase in consistency, while still meeting the original intent.
A commodity directive that doesn't specify the decimal point character
increases ambiguity and the chance of misparsing numbers, especially
as it overrides all style information inferred from the journal amounts.
In some cases it caused amounts with a decimal point to be parsed as if
with a digit group separator so 1.234 became 1234.
We could augment it with extra info from the journal amounts, when available,
but it would still be possible to be ambiguous, and that won't be obvious.
A commodity directive is what we recommend to nail down the style.
It seems the simple and really only way to do this reliably is to require
an explicit decimal point character. Most folks probably do this already.
Unfortunately, it makes another potential incompatiblity with ledger and
beancount journals. But the error message will be clear and easy to
work around.
Inferred amounts now have the appropriate standard amount style applied.
And when checking for balanced transactions, amount styles declared with
commodity directives are also used (previously only inferred amount styles were).
Now we have:
-- | Sorted unique account names posted to by this journal's transactions.
journalAccountNamesUsed :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names implied by this journal's transactions -
-- accounts posted to and all their implied parent accounts.
journalAccountNamesImplied :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names declared by account directives in this journal.
journalAccountNamesDeclared :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names declared by account directives or posted to
-- by transactions in this journal.
journalAccountNamesDeclaredOrUsed :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names declared by account directives, or posted to
-- or implied as parents by transactions in this journal.
journalAccountNamesDeclaredOrImplied :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Convenience/compatibility alias for journalAccountNamesImpliedOrUsed.
journalAccountNames :: Journal -> [AccountName]
accountsFromPostings is currently doing excessive work when adding up
postings in each account. It sorts (accountName, amount) tuples which
cause amounts in them to be compared. There is no need to look at amount
here at all since subsequent summing up and counting does not depend on
order. It is enough to sort by accountname only.
Went through similar pieces of code, made them all look uniform.
- Simplify doctests for periodexpr.
- Besides consuming leading space consume ending space for periodexpr also.
- Drop implicit option (def, def) behaviour of periodexpr. I.e. disallow
hledger reg -p '' and auto-transaction with heading just '~'.
- Slightly re-factor periodexpr.
- Ensure that reportinginterval doesn't consume trailing space.
Useful if we'll start disallowing periods like "every1stjan2009-".
This is very helpful for periodic transactions, because in budget mode
you need to ensure that no periodic transactions extend past the end
of the journal, and in forecast mode you need to make sure that all
periodic transactions are strictly after the end of the journal.
Some of these demonstrate that runPeriodicTransaction could generate
transactions ouside of requested DateSpan. This happens because
runPeriodicTransaction uses splitSpan internally, and splitSpan always
generates dateSpans that fully cover original DateSpan, extending
beyound left/right boundary if necessary. This is ok if transactions
are generated for budgeting purpose, but during forecasting care should
be taken to check that all generated transactions are happening past
the end of the real journal.
Currently only lower-case account names are supported, both on the
command line, and in the journal (in periodic transactions):
This works:
$ hledger balance -p nov
This does not:
$ hledger balance -p Nov
First transaction will parse, second will not:
```
cat every-month.journal ~/devel/haskell/darcs-get/hledger/examples
~ aug to sep
assets
expenses $1
~ Aug to Sep
assets
expenses $2
```
$../bin/hledger-budget bal -f every-month.journal
hledger-budget: Failed to parse "Aug to Sep": date parse error ()
This commit fixes both cases.
Add "fixed" to the regex used to exclude asset accounts from cashflow
reports. Assumes accounts are set up something like:
assets:fixed assets:equipment
assets:fixed assets:vehicles
assets:fixed assets:buildings
Older megaparsec is still supported.
Also cleans up our custom parser types,
and some text (un)packing is done in different places
(possible performance impact).
The new entry effectively adds a loan which is placed in the checking account.
This loan is then closed by the "pay off" transaction (which was already
present).
This is mainly to be used as a test point for the -H option; to make
sure -H does not show empty accounts.
All previous tests were changed to reflect the new change.
The documentation of the journal module was updated too.
See the issue and linked mail list discussion. Ambiguity between the
uncleared state, and the "not cleared" --uncleared flag causes confusion
and friction. At this point it seems best to break with Ledger and
past hledger, pick a new name and drop --uncleared to put an end to it.
Related to #563, when rendering a transaction, we reserve two more chars
of width so that amounts remain aligned when there are posting flags.
Affects hledger-ui's transaction screen, print, hledger-rewrite etc.
This affects hledger-ui's transaction screen, print, hledger-rewrite etc.
A pending flag on postings is now displayed, just like a cleared flag.
Also there will now be a space between flag and account name.
And it's slightly better at aligning amounts, due to now considering
virtual posting parentheses/brackets or something.
When generating a new posting as a multiple of an existing posting,
support conversion to a different commodity. For example, postings in
hours can be used to generate postings in USD.
Automatic transactions generated from rewrite rules use the commodity,
amount style, and transaction price if the rewrite defines a commodity.
The balance command now shows negative amounts in red, when it thinks
ANSI codes are supported, ie when TERM is not "dumb" and stdout is not
being redirected or piped somewhere.
* added showMarketPrice and Hledger.Data.MarketPrice module
* showMarketPrice implemented using showDate
* attempted to add tests to Hledger.Data.MarketPrice
* moved MarketPrice test to Hledger.Read.JournalReader; fixed documentation on MarketPrice; added MarketPrice module to package.yaml
* cli: fix bug in pivot for postings without tag
Without this fix for postings without tag query checked effective
account which is always empty text ("").
* rewrite: inherit dates, change application order
For budgeting it is important to inherit actual date of posting if it
differs from date of transaction. These dates will be added
as a separate line of comment.
More natural order of rewrites is when result of first defined one is
available for all next rewrites.
* rewrite: factor out Hledger.Data.AutoTransaction
* rewrite: add diff output
With this option you can modify your original files without loosing
inter-transaction comments etc. I.e. you can run:
hledger-rewrite --diff Agency \
--add-posting 'Expenses:Taxes *0.17' \
| patch
As result multiple files should be updated.
Also it is nice to review your changes using colordiff instead of
patch.
* lib: track source lines range for journal
* doc: auto entries and diff output for rewrite
* bin: ignore chart and dupes addons
* lib: fix txnTieKnot
Ensure that postings refers to their transaction rather than original
one.
This should allow compiler perform destructive update and/or allow
garbage collecting old transaction.
This assumes a "PAYEE | NOTE" convention in the description field,
similar to Beancount's journal syntax. If the description has no pipe
character, payee and note are the same as the full description.
* Add implicit tags code/desc/payee for --pivot
Additionally allow using of transaction inherited tags.
* Use original posting in query by account name
To be able to query on individual postings and by account name it is
useful to have access to original account name (before pivot).
Especially this is useful when all postings within transaction gets
the same pivot name due.
As a side effect we'll match by alias.
Note: to query on amt it usually expected to see matches with inferred
amounts.
* Remember original postings during infer and pivot
This includes such functions like:
- inferFromAssignment
- inferBalancingAmount
- inferBalancingPrices
- pivotPosting
* Use original postings for hledger print
- Introduce "--explicit" option for "print" command which brings back
old behavior when every inferred number being printed.
- Make "print" by default print original postings without inferred
amounts. But use effective account name to have effect from aliases.
- Instruct shell tests with an new expected output or to use
--explicit option when inferred amounts are checked.
Resolvessimonmichael/hledger#442
* Changed behavior of `readJournalFiles` to be identical to `readJournalFile` for singleton lists
* Balance Assertions have to be simple Amounts
* Add 'isAssignment' and 'assignmentPostings' to Hledger.Data.Posting and Transaction
* Implemented 'balanceTransactionUpdate', a more general version of 'balanceTransaction' that takes an update function
* Fixed test cases.
* Implemented balance assignment ("resetting a balance")
* Add assertions to show function
* updated the comments
* numbering is not needed in journalCheckBalanceAssertions
* remove prices before balance checks
* rename functions
ie, when viewing a "current" period (the current day/week/month/quarter/year),
it will be moved to enclose the current date, if needed, whenever the system date changes.
When we don't know a file's format, instead of choosing a subset of
readers based on content sniffing, now we just try them all.
Also, LedgerReader is now used only as a last resort,
as it's not yet competitive with JournalReader.
Transactions are now numbered consistently during journal finalisation,
rather than just in the journal reader. Also transaction knot-tying has been
moved out of journalBalanceTransactions.
* Replace Parsec with Megaparsec (see #289)
This builds upon PR #289 by @rasendubi
* Revert renaming of parseWithState to parseWithCtx
* Fix doctests
* Update for Megaparsec 5
* Specialize parser to improve performance
* Pretty print errors
* Swap StateT and ParsecT
This is necessary to get the correct backtracking behavior, i.e. discard
state changes if the parsing fails.
With --debug=2, better information about assertions is printed.
Balance assertion errors now have a more standard and parseable layout.
The asserted balance is now shown with the diff, let's see if that's better.
There is a limitation/bug: disabling real mode in the transaction screen
won't show the non-real postings if it was entered from a real-mode
register screen.
The journal/timeclock/timedot parsers, instead of constructing (opaque)
journal update functions which are later applied to build the journal,
now construct the journal directly (by modifying the parser state). This
is easier to understand and debug. It also removes any possibility of
the journal updates being a space leak. (They weren't, in fact memory
usage is now slightly higher, but that will be addressed in other ways.)
Also:
Journal data and journal parse info have been merged into one type (for
now), and field names are more consistent.
The ParsedJournal type alias has been added to distinguish being-parsed
and finalised journals.
Journal is now a monoid.
stats: fixed an issue with ordering of include files
journal: fixed an issue with ordering of included same-date transactions
timeclock: sessions can no longer span file boundaries (unclocked-out
sessions will be auto-closed at the end of the file).
expandPath now throws a proper IO error (and requires the IO monad).
The commodity directive's format subdirective can now be used to
override the inferred style for a commodity, eg to increase or decrease
the precision. This doesn't fix the root cause of #295 but is at least a
good workaround.
Bracketed posting dates were fragile; they worked only if you wrote full
10-character dates. Also some semantics were a bit unclear. Now they
should be robust, and have been documented more clearly. This is a
legacy undocumented Ledger syntax, but it improves compatibility and
might be preferable to the more verbose "date:" tags if you write
posting dates often (as I do).
Internally, bracketed posting dates are no longer considered to be tags.
Journal comment, tag, and posting date parsers have been reworked, all
with doctests. Also the journal parser types generally have been
tightened up and clarified, making it much easier to know how to combine
and run them. There's now
-- | A parser of strings with generic user state, monad and return type.
type StringParser u m a = ParsecT String u m a
-- | A string parser with journal-parsing state.
type JournalParser m a = StringParser JournalContext m a
-- | A journal parser that runs in IO and can throw an error mid-parse.
type ErroringJournalParser a = JournalParser (ExceptT String IO) a
and corresponding convenience functions (and short aliases) for running them.
We now parse account directives, like Ledger's. We don't do anything
with them yet. The default parent account feature must now be spelled
"apply account"/"end apply account".
