💖 NAME 💖

addtrans - interactively add transactions to a ledger file 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

addtrans [options]

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Okay so addtrans is a graphical app that lets you quickly add brand new transactions to a ledger file, and it's giving main character energy 💅✨

Bestie, there's a tutorial for it with screenshots, and it lives at /usr/share/doc/ledgerhelpers/addtrans.html 🧚 Go peek!

The program needs to know where your ledger and price database files are. Each file's location gets figured out independently, and it checks these mechanisms in this exact order. The first one that gives an answer wins, no cap 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -h, --help — Pulls up the help message and then bounces. 🫶
• --file FILE — Tells it which ledger file to work with. 📒
• --price-db PRICEDB — Tells it which ledger price database to work with. 💜
• --debug — Turns on debugging output. It's lowkey useful if you're a developer 🙈

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

These environment variables are recognized by the program, so you can set them and vibe:

• LEDGER_FILE — The path to the ledger file to work with. 🦋
• LEDGER_PRICE_DB — The path to the ledger price database to work with. 🍓

📁 FILES 📁

The config file for ledger(1), which is .ledgerrc in your home directory, gets scanned for these options:

• --file FILE — The path to the ledger file to work with. 🌸
• --price-db PRICEDB — The path to the ledger price database to work with. ✨

👯 SEE ALSO 👯

Your squad to check out: ledger(1), cleartrans-cli(1), sellstock-cli(1), sorttrans-cli(1), and withdraw-cli(1) 🫶

And again, the tutorial with screenshots lives at /usr/share/doc/ledgerhelpers/addtrans.html 🧚
