[Haskell-cafe] ANN: hledger 0.17

[Simon Michael]

Happy new year all. hledger and hledger-web 0.17 are released. Not quite as planned, this release mainly fixes bugs and updates dependencies. Also the hledger-vty and hledger-chart packages have been demoted to "unmaintained extras" for now to save time.

hledger is a library, command-line tool, and web app for reporting on financial transactions stored in a text file. It is a haskell port and friendly fork of John Wiegley's Ledger. Home: http://hledger.org

To install: cabal update, then cabal install hledger (or cabal-install hledger-web). If you have any trouble, please let me know, or watch the mail list/bug tracker for updates. (Ready to run binaries are provided on request to project donors, a great way to support the project - see http://hledger.org/DOWNLOAD.html.)

Release notes for 0.17:

  * support HP 2011.4.0.0

  * support and require cmdargs 0.9

  * allow non-threaded builds, supporting more debian architectures

  * parsing: give a clearer error when journal file path contains ~

  * parsing: -B/--cost now ignores P historical prices, like ledger

  * parsing: inferred amounts now use the cost commodity if known, like ledger (#69)

  * balance: report differently-priced lots in an account as a single amount, like ledger

  * web: support and require yesod >= 0.9.4

  * web: use the main aeson package again

  * web: fix a regression with dollar signs in hamlet templates

  * web: add form allowed blank account names (#81)

  * chart, vty: hledger-chart and hledger-vty demoted to non-maintained extras for now


Best,
-Simon
