# Release notes
Based on the
[hledger](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger/changelog),
[hledger-web](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-web/changelog) &
[hledger-lib](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-lib/changelog)
change logs.

## hledger 0.23 (2014/5/1)
[announcement](http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.finance.ledger.hledger/1028)
Changes since 0.22.2:
**Journal format:**
- A # (hash) in column 0 is now also supported for starting a top-level journal comment, like Ledger.
- The "too many missing amounts" error now reminds about the 2-space rule.
- Fix: . (period) is no longer parsed as a valid amount.
- Fix: default commodity directives no longer limit the maximum display precision (#169).
- Fix: + before an amount is no longer parsed as part of the commodity (#181).
**CLI:**
- Command-line help cleanups, layout improvements.
- Descriptions are shown for known add-ons in the command list.
- Command aliases have been simplified.
- Add-ons can now have any of these file extensions:
none, hs, lhs, pl, py, rb, rkt, sh, bat, com, exe.
- Add-ons are displayed without their file extensions when possible.
- Add-ons with the same name as a built-in command or alias are ignored.
- Fix: add-on detection and invocation now works on windows.
- Fix: add-ons with digits in the name are now found.
- Fix: add-on arguments containing a single quote now work.
- Fix: when -- is used to hide add-on options from the main program,
it is no longer passed through as an add-on argument.
**accounts:**
- An accounts command has been added, similar to Ledger's, for listing account names
in flat or hierarchical mode.
**add:**
- Tab completion now works at all prompts, and will insert the default if the input area is empty.
- Account and amount defaults are more robust and useful.
- Transactions may also be completed by the enter key, when there are no more default postings.
- Input prompts are displayed in a different colour when supported.
**balance:**
- Balance reports in flat mode now always show exclusive (subaccount-excluding) balances.
- Balance reports in flat mode with --depth now aggregate deeper accounts at the depth limit instead of excluding them.
- Multicolumn reports in flat mode now support --drop.
- Multicolumn balance reports can now show the account hierarchy with --tree.
- Multicolumn report start/end dates are adjusted to encompass the displayed
report periods, so the first and last periods are "full" and comparable to the others.
- Fix: zero-balance leaf accounts below a non-zero-balance parent are no longer always shown (#170).
- Fix: multicolumn reports now support --date2 (cf #174).
**balancesheet, cashflow, incomestatement:**
- These commands now support --flat and --drop.
**print:**
- Tag queries (tag:) will now match a transaction if any of its postings match.
**register:**
- The --display option has been dropped. To see an accurate running total which
includes the prior starting balance, use --historical/-H (like balance).
- With a report interval, report start/end dates are adjusted to encompass the displayed
periods, so the first and last periods are "full" and comparable to the others.
- Fix: --date2 now works with report intervals (fixes #174).
**Queries:**
- The currency/commodity query prefix (sym:) has been renamed to cur:.
- Currency/commodity queries are applied more strongly in register and
balance reports, filtering out unwanted currencies entirely. Eg
hledger balance cur:'\$' now reports only the dollar amounts even if
there are multi-currency transactions or postings.
- Amount queries like amt:N, amt:<N and amt:>N, where N is not 0, now do an unsigned
comparison of the amount and N. That is, they compare the absolute magnitude.
To do a signed comparison instead, write N with its sign (eg amt:+N, amt:<+N, amt:>-N).
- Fix: amount queries no longer give false positives on multi-commodity amounts.
**Miscellaneous:**
- Default report dates now derive from the secondary dates when --date2 is in effect.
- Default report dates now notice any posting dates outside the transaction dates' span.
- Debug output improvements.
- New add-on example: extra/hledger-rewrite.hs, adds postings to matched entries.
- Compatible with GHC 7.2 (#155) - GHC 7.8, shakespeare 2
## hledger-web 0.23 (2014/5/1)
Changes since 0.22.8:
- The --static-root flag has been renamed to --file-url.
- hledger-web now builds with Cabal's default -O, not -O2,
so may be a little quicker/less memory-hungry to install.
## hledger-web 0.22.8 (2014/4/29)
- allow shakespeare 2.* (#179)
## hledger-web 0.22.7 (2014/4/17)
- add Peter Simons' patch fixing Data.Conduit.Network HostIPv4 error (#171)
## hledger-web 0.22.6 (2014/4/16)
- depend on hledger[-lib] 0.22.2
## hledger 0.22.2 (2014/4/16)
- display years before 1000 with four digits, not three
- avoid pretty-show to build with GHC < 7.4
- allow text 1.1, drop data-pprint to build with GHC 7.8.x
## hledger-web 0.22.5 (2014/4/15)
- allow http-client 0.3.*, fixing cabal install again with GHC <= 7.6 (not yet 7.8)
- use pretty-show only with GHC 7.4+, fixing GHC 7.2 (fixes #155)
- allow warp 2.1, fixing cabal install
## 2014/2/10 hledger-web 0.22.4
* web: include the right unminified version of jquery.url.js (1.1) to avoid js breakage
## 2014/2/10 hledger-web 0.22.3
* web: fix version number reported by --version
## 2014/2/10 hledger-web 0.22.2
New:
* web: new option `--static-root` to set the base url for static files
Improved:
* web: include unminified source of all javascript to help packagers (fixes #161)
* web: work around clang-related build failures with OS X mavericks/XCode 5
* web: allow blaze-html 0.7 (closes #159)
## 2014/1/6 hledger 0.22.1
- require the latest pretty-show so hledger installation no longer
needs an upgraded version of happy, and the docs build on hackage
- require regex-tdfa directly instead of regex-compat-tdfa,
simplifying Debian packaging
## 2013/12/13 hledger 0.22
**New:**
- balance: with a reporting interval (monthly, yearly etc.), the
[balance command](manual.html#balance) will now show a multi-column report, showing either
the per-period changes in balance (by default),
the period ending balances starting from zero (`--cumulative`),
or the actual period ending balances (`--historical`).
A more detailed specification of the balance command's behaviour
has been added to [Hledger.Cli.Balance](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger/docs/Hledger-Cli-Balance.html).
- csv: rules files can now include other rules files, useful for factoring out common rules
- queries: `sym:REGEXP` matches commodity symbols
- register: `--average/-A` shows a running average, like ledger
- in period expressions, `-` (hyphen) can be used as a more compact
synonym for `from` and `to`. Eg: `-p 2012/12/1-2013/2/1` or `date:aug-`.
- the add-on script examples in extra/ have been updated; get the
hledger source and add .../hledger/extra/ to your PATH to make them
available. They include:
- `hledger-accountnames.hs` - print account names
- `hledger-balance-csv.hs` - print a balance report as CSV
- `hledger-equity.hs` - print an entry matching all account balances (like ledger)
- `hledger-print-unique.hs` - print only journal entries unique descriptions
- `hledger-register-csv.hs` - print a register report as CSV
**Improved:**
- balancesheet: now shows just assets and liabilities, not equity
- print: comment positions (same line or next line) are now preserved
- queries: `amt` now uses the = operator by default, eg `amt:50` is
equivalent to `amt:=50`
- command line processing has been overhauled and made more
consistent, and now has tests and debug output. More flags now work
both before and after COMMAND: `-f`, `--rule-file`, `--alias`,
`--help`, `--debug`, `--version`. Command line help, command
aliases, API docs and code have been improved.
- `--debug` now takes an optional numeric argument to set the debug level
higher than 1, for more verbose debug output in a few cases.
**Fixed:**
- csv: CSV data containing non-ascii characters is now supported
- build with latest versions of dependencies (text, warp, http-conduit etc.)
**Release contributors:**
Marko Kocić, Max Bolingbroke, and a big welcome to first-time committer John Wiegley! :)
## 2013/7/10 hledger-web 0.21.3
- drop yesod-platform dependency, it is not worthwhile. The other
yesod dependencies are currently without version ranges, so cabal
install might require --constraint to restrict them in some cases.
## 2013/6/23 hledger 0.21.3
- csv: fix wrong application of multiple assignments in a conditional block
## 2013/6/4 hledger 0.21.2
- web: fix a build failure
## 2013/6/3 hledger 0.21.1
- web: show proper Y-values in register chart (fixes #122)
- web: avoid trailing commas in register chart values, in case of trouble with IE
## 2013/6/1 hledger 0.21
**Bugs fixed:**
- parsing: don't fail when a csv amount has trailing whitespace (fixes #113)
- web: don't show prices in the accounts sidebar (fixes #114)
- web: show one line per commodity in charts. Needs more polish, but fixes #109.
- web: bump yesod-platform dependency to avoid a cabal install failure
**Journal reading:**
- balance assertions are now checked after reading a journal
**web command:**
- web: support/require yesod 1.2
- web: show zero-balance accounts in the sidebar (fixes #106)
- web: use nicer select2 autocomplete widgets in the add form
**Documentation and infrastructure:**
- add basic cabal test suites for hledger-lib and hledger
## 2013/5/4 hledger 0.20.0.1
* web: require at least version 1.1.7 of yesod-core to avoid a potential build error
* Update the bug tracker and source repository links on hackage
## 2013/5/1 hledger 0.20
**Bugs fixed:**
* balance: a 0.19 regression which showed wrong total balance with `--flat` has been fixed (#94)
* register: when `--date2` is used, the register is now sorted by the secondary date
* web: some missing static & template files have been added to the package, fixing cabal-dev and hackage builds (#97, #98)
* web: some hardcoded static urls have been fixed
* Dependencies and code have been updated to support the latest
libraries and GHC versions. For now, hledger requires GHC 7.2+
and hledger-web requires GHC 7.4+.
**Journal reading:**
- DOS-style line-endings are now also supported in journal and rules files.
- `!` is now accepted in the status field as well as `*`, like ledger
- The *actual date* and *effective date* terminology has changed to *primary date* and *secondary date*.
Use `--date2` to select the secondary date for reports. (`--aux-date` or `--effective` are also accepted
for ledger and backwards compatibility).
- Per-posting dates are supported, using hledger tags or ledger's posting date syntax
- Comment and tag handling has been improved
**CSV reading:**
- CSV conversion rules have a simpler, more flexible [syntax](manual.html#csv).
Existing rules files will need to be updated manually:
- the filename is now `FILE.csv.rules` instead of `FILE.rules`
- `FIELD-field N` is now `FIELD %N+1` (or set them all at once with a `fields` rule)
- `base-currency` is now `currency`
- `base-account` is now `account1`
- account-assigning rules:
add `if` before the list of regexps,
add indented `account2 ` before the account name
- parenthesised amounts are parsed as negative
**Querying:**
- Use `code:` to match the transaction code (check number) field
- Use `amt:` followed by `<`, `=` or `>` and a number N to match
amounts by magnitude. Eg `amt:<0` or `amt:=100`. This works only
with single-commodity amounts (multi-commodity amounts are
always matched).
- `tag:` can now match (exact, case sensitive) tag values. Eg `tag:TAG=REGEXP`.
**add comand:**
- Transaction codes and comments (which may contain tags) can now be entered, following a date or amount respectively. (#45)
- The current entry may be restarted by entering `<` at any prompt. (#47)
- Entries are displayed and confirmed before they are written to the journal.
- Default values may be specified for the first entry by providing them as command line arguments.
- Miscellaneous UI cleanups
**register command:**
- The `--related`/`-r` flag shows the other postings in each transaction, like ledger.
- The `--width`/`-w` option increases or sets the output width.
**web command:**
- The web command now also starts a browser, and auto-exits when unused, by default ("local ui mode").
With `--server`, it keeps running and logs requests to the console ("server mode").
- Bootstrap is now used for styling and layout
- A favicon is served
- The search field is wider
- yesod devel is now supported; it uses `$LEDGER_FILE` or `~/.hledger.journal`
- the `blaze_html_0_5` build flag has been reversed and renamed to `blaze_html_0_4`
**Add-ons:**
- The hledger-interest and hledger-irr commands have been released/updated.
- hledger-chart and hledger-vty remain unmaintained and deprecated.
**Documentation and infrastructure:**
- The hledger docs and website have been reorganised and updated
- Manuals for past releases are provided as well as the latest dev version
- hledger has moved from darcs and darcs hub to git and github (!)
- The bug tracker has moved from google code to github
- Feature requests and project planning are now managed on trello
- A build bot builds against multiple GHC versions on each commit
**Release contributors:**
- Sascha Welter commissioned register enhancements (--related and --width)
- David Patrick contributed a bounty for add enhancements
- Joachim Breitner added support for ! in status field
- Xinruo Sun provided hledger-web build fixes
- Peter Simons provided hledger-web build fixes, and a build bot
- Marko Kocić provided hledger-web fixes

[announcement](http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.finance.ledger.hledger/296)
* move web, vty, chart commands into separate hledger-web, hledger-vty,
hledger-chart packages. This both simplifies (no more build flags) and

## 2009/12/11 hledger 0.7
[announcement](http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.finance.ledger.hledger/193)
* price history support (first cut): P directives now work,
though differently from ledger. Each posting amount takes its
fixed unit price from the price history (or
@) when available. This is simple and useful for things like
foreign currency expenses (but not investment tracking). Like
ledger, balance and register don't show amount prices any more, and
don't separate differently-priced amounts. Unlike ledger, print
shows all amount prices, and supports -B.
* --effective option, will use transactions' effective dates if
any
* convert: new rules file format, find/create rules file
automatically, more robust parsing, more useful --debug output
* print: always sort by date, fix long account name truncation,
align amounts, show end of line comments, show all amounts for
clarity (don't elide the final balancing amount)
* ui: use vty 4, fixes non-ascii and gnome terminal problems
(issues \#3, \#4)
* web: allow data entry, react to data file changes, better
layout, help links, remove histogram command and filter fields for
now, fix bad localhost redirect, filter form did not work in eg
firefox (issue \#7), reset link did not work in all browsers
* parsing: require whitespace between date and status code, allow
(and ignore) a time in price records, better error messages,
non-zero exit code on parse failure
* display non-ascii error messages properly (issue \#5)
* fix an arithmetic bug that occasionally rejected valid
transactions
* fix a regex bug in showtree
* don't break if HOME is undefined
* --debug now implies --verbose
* add functional tests like ledger's, use test-framework for
speedy running, release shelltestrunner as a separate package
* many hlint cleanups (Marko Kocić)
* many site and documentation updates
