Configuration File

The configuration file mirrors largely mirrors parameters available on the command line.

There are two notable exceptions:

  • report.macros This section defines macros for the report (set of operations) that can be used on the command line arguments or by other macros. This is how complex reports can be built up.

  • importdefs. Defining a new importdefs will create a sub-command under import that has all of the command line parameters and the import configuration pre-configured. This allows you to create an import definition per CSV file (or other format) that you download.

  • register.accounts List of accounts that shell-completion will match if used. This is to make it easier to use the CLI.

Starter configuration file:


#
# Main defaults
#
#ledger =  "default_ledger_file"
#baseccy = "£"

#
# Defaults for the report command
#
[report]
combineby = "all"
type =      "Ansi"
sum =       true
convert =   true
credit =    "^(Income|Trading|Liability|Equity)(:.*)?$"

[report.macros]
macroA = [
	"book operation A",
	"book operation B",
]

#
# Defaults for the register command
#

[register]
accounts = [
  "Asset:Default",
]
count = -100
asc = true

[importdefs.bankformat]
description = "Bank Format"
configtype = "csv"
account = "Asset:BankDefaultAccount"
counteraccount = "Expense:DefaultExpenseAccount"
dedup = true
reclassify = true

[importdefs.bankformat.params]
ccy = "£"
date = "0"
amount = "2"
payee = "1"
