New issue 274: allow single document option to span multiple per-year directories https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/issues/274/allow-single-document-option-to-span
Stefano Zacchiroli: As suggested by the documentation, it is handy to split documents like bank statements into per-year sub-directories. To support all of them, one currently needs to specify the document option multiple times, e.g. (real-example from my own beancount file): ``` #!beancount option "documents" "documents/2018" option "documents" "documents/2017" option "documents" "documents/2016" option "documents" "documents/2015" option "documents" "documents/2014" option "documents" "documents/2013" option "documents" "documents/2012" option "documents" "documents/2011" option "documents" "documents/2010" option "documents" "documents/2009" ``` Having to maintain this list is tiresome and bloated. Given how popular this arrangement is, it would be nice if beancount would look for both DOCUMENT_DIR/ACCOUNT_NAME/YYYY-MM-DD.file.pdf and DOCUMENT_DIR/YYYY/ACCOUNT_NAME/YYYY-MM-DD.file.pdf . With that, it will become possible to specify a single document option, like this: ``` #!beancount option "documents" "documents" ``` -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
