vim-ledger
|
||
==========
|
||
|
||
This is the ledger filetype for Vim.
|
||
|
||
Usage
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
Copy each file to the corresponding directory in your `~/.vim` directory or
|
||
install using [Pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen).
|
||
|
||
You can also use a modeline like this in every ledger file:
|
||
|
||
vim:filetype=ledger
|
||
|
||
Tips and useful commands
|
||
------------------------
|
||
|
||
* Try account-completion (as explained below)
|
||
|
||
* `:call ledger#transaction_date_set(line('.'), 'auxiliary')`
|
||
|
||
will set today's date as the auxiliary date of the current transaction. You
|
||
can use also `primary` or `unshift` in place of `auxiliary`. When you pass
|
||
"unshift" the old primary date will be set as the auxiliary date and today's
|
||
date will be set as the new primary date.
|
||
To use a different date pass a date measured in seconds since 1st Jan 1970
|
||
as the third argument.
|
||
|
||
* `:call ledger#transaction_state_set(line('.'), '*')`
|
||
|
||
sets the state of the current transaction to '*'. You can use this in custom
|
||
mappings.
|
||
|
||
* `:call ledger#transaction_state_toggle(line('.'), ' *?!')`
|
||
|
||
will toggle through the provided transaction states. You can map this to
|
||
double-clicking for example:
|
||
|
||
noremap <silent><buffer> <2-LeftMouse>\
|
||
:call ledger#transaction_state_toggle(line('.'), ' *?!')<CR>
|
||
|
||
* Align commodities at the decimal point. See `help ledger-tips`.
|
||
|
||
* `:call ledger#entry()`
|
||
|
||
will replace the text on the current line with a new transaction based
|
||
on the replaced text.
|
||
|
||
Configuration
|
||
-------------
|
||
|
||
Include the following let-statements somewhere in your `.vimrc` to modify the
|
||
behaviour of the ledger filetype.
|
||
|
||
* Number of columns that will be used to display the foldtext. Set this when
|
||
you think that the amount is too far off to the right.
|
||
|
||
let g:ledger_maxwidth = 80
|
||
|
||
* String that will be used to fill the space between account name and amount in
|
||
the foldtext. Set this to get some kind of lines or visual aid.
|
||
|
||
let g:ledger_fillstring = ' -'
|
||
|
||
* If you want the account completion to be sorted by level of detail/depth
|
||
instead of alphabetical, include the following line:
|
||
|
||
let g:ledger_detailed_first = 1
|
||
|
||
* By default vim will fold ledger transactions, leaving surrounding blank lines
|
||
unfolded. You can use `g:ledger_fold_blanks` to hide blank lines following a
|
||
transaction.
|
||
|
||
let g:ledger_fold_blanks = 0
|
||
|
||
A value of 0 will disable folding of blank lines, 1 will allow folding of a
|
||
single blank line between transactions; any larger value will enable folding
|
||
undconditionally.
|
||
|
||
Note that only lines containing no trailing spaces are considered for
|
||
folding. You can take advantage of this to disable this feature on a
|
||
case-by-case basis.
|
||
|
||
Completion
|
||
----------
|
||
|
||
Omni completion is currently implemented for account names only.
|
||
|
||
### Accounts
|
||
|
||
Account names are matched by the start of every sub-level. When you
|
||
insert an account name like this:
|
||
|
||
Asse<C-X><C-O>
|
||
|
||
You will get a list of top-level accounts that start like this.
|
||
|
||
Go ahead and try something like:
|
||
|
||
As:Ban:Che<C-X><C-O>
|
||
|
||
When you have an account like this, 'Assets:Bank:Checking' should show up.
|
||
|
||
When you want to complete on a virtual transaction, it's currently best
|
||
to keep the cursor in front of the closing bracket. Of course you can
|
||
insert the closing bracket after calling the completion, too.
