@yagebu what should I do to make the graph work?

Red S

@redstreet

Extension: the included example in fava has (None, None) hardcoded for begin and end params. This is a bit confusing (why include params if they're going to be hardcoded by the caller?). I'd recommend removing it. What do you think?

@yagebu on the chart issue: can you add a chart to the example portfolio_list extension included with fava please?

Red S

@redstreet

That would be super helpful and might encourage other extension writers too

Jakob Schnitzer

@yagebu

@laurahki: You need to collapse the row by clicking in the box surrounding the account name. Fava only shows the aggregated balances and budgets directly if that account has no balance or budget of its own so that you can distinguish the balance/budget and the aggregated balance/budget.

@redstreet: Including <script type="application/json" id="chart-data">{{ charts.chart_data|tojson|safe }}</script> in your extension template could work. But please do note that this might break, I consider the charts an internal implementation detail and want to keep the freedom to modify how they work.

Jakob Schnitzer

@yagebu

A PR to improve the portfolio_list extension would be welcome of course :)

@redstreet

PR is out :)

@yagebu thanks a bunch for the chart pointers; i got the chart for asset allocation working in the extension! With a custom data structure instead for asset class percentages too.

Fair point on charts being an internal implementation detail.

@adamgibbins

that looks awesome

@redstreet

👍 the sunburst chart works really well for this case since asset allocation is hierarchical.

@yagebu hello! currently I am working on an beancount app for Android and I found out your tree-sitter parser here https://github.com/yagebu/tree-sitter-beancount

have you considered relaxing some lexing rules for Beancount? Like for example support Unicode Account names, tags, and currencies. I think the original syntax for Beancount has a lot of restrictions because it's a lex-then-parse parser. but TreeSitter have context-aware-lexing

Jakob Schnitzer

@yagebu

@molikto: That parser is only used in an experimental branch of Fava so far. I don't have any concrete plans to submit it to Beancount - the Beancount parser is still a bit faster for single parsing runs, however in Fava with caching the tree-sitter parser could be faster. Beancount already supports Unicode in account names and I probably also prefer a stricter syntax for tags and currencies, so I didn't consider any changes there.

oh hi. Is this where beancount chatters hang out ? I'm usually in freenode #beancount

similar size, but this room seems a lot more active

oh, excuse me. This one is for fava.

Hi Beancounters,
I am looking for a way to brake expenses that I pay yearly so that it shows in the report as monthly expenses.

For e.g. I am paying my gym membership yearly and I want to see how much that cost me monthly, if you know what I mean. Is there any way to do this in either fava or the beancount file?

Hey Beancounters, I have been experementing with the Querey option in fava and now I have a list of commands that I don't really need.

*Query

is there any option to delete them ?

Adam Gibbins

@adamgibbins

Everything fava does is manipulate your beancount files, your queries are in there, you can just delete them

oh you mean on the query screen the remembered queries you've run? That's in your browsers local storage, you can just clear that

m20a

@m20a_gitlab

uh cool I thought it is storing it somewhere. Stupid me didn't try to clear my browser

thanks for that

Hi everyone. I occur an error when I run fava on pythoneverywhere. What can I do to fix it?

Jakob Schnitzer

@yagebu

You need to set app.config['BEANCOUNT_FILES'] to contain the paths to the files you want to load

@VegetaPn

@yagebu Thank you.

Hey... newbie here to fava and beancount. I'm in a bit of a pickle. I need to prepare tax returns for my business. Issue is my business uses Cryptocurrency for my foreign clients. Basically they pay me in crypto, and then I use that crypto by either converting back to GBP and then paying salary, or just using the crypto debit card directly.

I've entered all my transactions for the year, and even included weekly historical prices using the "price" directive

but I cannot find a way to report the "Realized capital gains"

(or loss)

2019-06-26 * "EE Top Up"
      Assets:GB:Coinbase:ETH                 -0.04020595 ETH {{10.00 GBP}}
      Expenses:Communications:Mobile               10.00 GBP

That is how I enter my transactions. Am I missing anything related to reporting the realized capital gains/loss?

matrixbot

@matrixbot

PotterScholar Yeah, you need a line to calculate the gain/loss, let me show you what I'm doing

PotterScholar ;ethereum purchases
2017-07-14 * "Coinbase" "Crypto: Ethereum Purchase"
Assets:Cryptocurrency:Ethereum 0.51772979 ETH {193.15 USD}
Expenses:Fees 2.99 USD
Assets:Checking

;ethereum sales
2017-12-07 ! "<person>" "Crypto: Ethereum Sale"
Assets:Cryptocurrency:Ethereum -2.55155802 ETH {} @ 427.10 USD
Expenses:Fees 16.24 USD
Assets:Checking 1089.77 USD
Income:Other:Investment-Income

PotterScholar The gains/losses are in Income:Other:Investment-Income, the basis is maintained in Assets:Crypto:Eth, and the gross profits are in the cash account
