The following script makes it a no-brainer:
% NEXT_YEAR=2015; ag -l 'Copyright.*Wiegley' \
| xargs sed -i '' -e "s/\(Copyright.*\)-20[0-9]\{2\}/\1-${NEXT_YEAR}/"
For `-f /dev/stdin`, the `pathname` of the parsing context will be empty
as for any other streamed input.
`instance_t::include_directive` did not work as expected for `-f /dev/stdin`
and relative file names. One would expect them to be relative to the current
directory rather than `/dev`.
This will lead to `While parsing file ""` messages. This could be
adjusted to read `While parsing standard input`, but maybe it's not
worth the special cases.
This commit also fixes bug 788: behaviour of source_context for '-f -'
`session_t::read_data` did not set context.pathname to `/dev/stdin`
for the special case `-f -`. I chose to adjust `source_context` too
as there is no sensible context if no file name is provided.
The --time-colon option will display the value for a seconds
based commodity as real hours and minutes.
For example 8100 seconds by default will be displayed as 2.25
whereas with the --time-colon option they will be displayed
as 2:15.
For example, just the word "account" returns the name of the current
posting's account, but account("Expenses:Food") returns the actual
account object, so that it's total may be accessed.
This fits better with the --amount and --total options, which both
change the amount and total used for calculation. Same with --account:
it happens after filtering, but before calculation so that balance
reports look as you'd expect.
The different namespaces are:
Function Value expression functions, which receive a "context"
Option Command-line options
Precommand Commands which are invoked before reading the journal
Command Commands which are invoked after reading the journal
Directive Directives that occur at column 0 in a data file
This greatly eases the ability for Python uses to add intercept hooks to
change how the basic Ledger module functions. An example of what should
be possible soon:
import ledger
def my_foo_handler(value):
print "--foo received:", value
ledger.add_handler(ledger.Option, "foo=", my_foo_handler)
