hledger is a haskell port and friendly fork of John Wiegley's ledger. It
|
|
is a robust command-line accounting tool with a simple human-editable data
|
|
format. Given a plain text file describing transactions, of money or any
|
|
other commodity, hledger will print the chart of accounts, account
|
|
balances, or transactions you're interested in. It can also help you
|
|
record transactions, or convert CSV data from your bank. There are also
|
|
curses and web interfaces. The project aims to provide a reliable,
|
|
practical day-to-day financial reporting tool, and also a useful library
|
|
for building financial apps in haskell.
|
|
|
|
Since hledger's last HCAR entry in 2009, hledger became cabalised, had 10
|
|
non-bugfix releases on hackage, split into multiple packages, acquired a
|
|
public mailing list, bug tracker, fairly comprehensive manual,
|
|
cross-platform binaries, and has grown to 5k lines of code and 15
|
|
committers. 0.14 has just been released, with 5 code committers.
|
|
|
|
The project is available under the GNU GPLv3 or later, at http://hledger.org .
|
|
|
|
Current plans are to continue development at a steady pace, to attract
|
|
more developers, and to become more useful to a wider range of users, eg
|
|
by building in more awareness of standard accounting procedures and by
|
|
improving the web and other interfaces.
