Market prices are now shown using one line each,
the known prices are listed (forward / forward+reverse),
and the status of --infer-market-prices is shown.
- These special hidden tags, used internally, have been renamed:
- `_modified` -> `_modified-transaction`
- `_cost-matched` -> `_cost-posting`
- `_conversion-matched` -> `_conversion-posting`
- All special hidden tags now have a similarly-named visible tag,
and `--verbose-tags` now shows those more often, which is useful
when troubleshooting `--infer-equity`, `--infer-costs`,
or the matching of redundant costs and conversion postings.
- The `generated-posting:` tag added by `--infer-equity` is now valueless.
- The `modified-transaction:` tag added by `--auto` now appears on its own line.
The equity:conversion account, and its variations equity:trade(s) and equity:trading,
normally detected as V/Conversion type, now become ordinary E/Equity accounts
if some other account is declared as V/Conversion type.
This is motivated by the next commit, in which `check accounts` will
stop warning about conversion accounts and their subaccounts,
which means all of the above names and their subaccounts would remain
always exempt from strict account checking.
Now, if the user declares their own conversion account, those default
accounts will become controllable by account checking again.
Which at least reduces the allowlist a bit.
Hopefully this won't cause hassles.
Older ghc versions should also still build cleanly (tested with 9.8 so far).
I don't like enabling CPP in so many modules but it's easier that
figuring out how to do it with base-compat; hopefully no noticeable
compilation impact.
Tags and types declared in account directives in sibling files or
included files are now combined more carefully.
In particular, when merging two Journals into one,
- jdeclaredaccounttags and jdeclaredaccounttypes no longer lose information;
any duplicated/conflicting tag/type values are preserved.
- jaccounttypes now prefers the last type declared in case of
conflict, not the first.
When processing costs and equity postings in transactions during
journal finalisation, we now pass just the conversion account name(s)
rather than the entire map of account types. This slowdown was severe
for some users/data/machines.
This and the preceding commits were "work in progress" that got out of control.
There's more to do, but this one brings these precision-related improvements
(at least):
When "infinite decimals" arise, they are now generally shown with
8 decimal digits rather than 255.
print and prices no longer add trailing decimal zeros unnecessarily.
Some code has been refactored or given more debug output.
All tests have been updated to match the recent changes.
I found at least one user for whom this would be a breaking change
(they generate forecast txns, and have auto posting rules, but don't
want the latter applied to the former). I guess it's better to keep
things as they were for now: if you need auto postings on your
forecast txns you must use two flags, --forecast --auto.
Previously, similarity completely outweighed recency, so a
slightly-more-similar transaction would always be selected no matter
how old it was. Now similarity and recency are more balanced,
and it should produce the desired transaction more often.
There is also new debug output (at debug level 1) for
troubleshooting.
Hledger.Utils.Debug's "trace or log" functions are now controlled as
follows: to enable logging, append ",logging" to the program name at
startup (using withProgName). This also works when running in GHCI.
And they log to PROGNAME.log, not debug.log.
All (hopefully) debug logging in the hledger packages is now "trace or
log" capable.
This means that hledger-ui should now log all debug output to
./hledger-ui.log, with none of it appearing on the console.
This replaces the old journal*AccountQuery with the new Type query. This
enables uniform treatment of account type, and fixes a subtle bug
(#1921).
Note that cbcsubreportquery no longer takes Journal as an argument.
