`hledger bal Расходы` doesn't work under Cygwin

[artkpv]

Hi, Thank you for the great tool!

How can I fix this to make hledger filter bal report using cyrillic charaters?

1. Given Cygwin, mintty 2.6.2 (x86_64), hledger 1.1

2. $ locale
   LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8
   LC_CTYPE="ru_RU.UTF-8"
   LC_NUMERIC="ru_RU.UTF-8"
   LC_TIME="ru_RU.UTF-8"
   LC_COLLATE="ru_RU.UTF-8"
   LC_MONETARY="ru_RU.UTF-8"
   LC_MESSAGES="ru_RU.UTF-8"
   LC_ALL=

3. This: $ hledger.exe -f main.ledger bal Расходы Outputs:

   --------------------
                   0

You're welcome!

I don't have a windows machine accessible at the moment, but what is the output with --debug=9 added ?

[artkpv]

@simonmichael With --debug=9 it is has a lot of output. It reads the chars as '\1056\1072\1089\1093\1086\1076\1099'

Here is for --debug=2:

Also for this, when '-' used, it gets the report.

[simonmichael]

That debug output is all as it should be. What about the example in https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/blob/master/tests/i18n/unicode-account-matching.test#L3-L5 (extract it to a file and run hledger -f - register τράπ --debug 9) ?

[artkpv]

[simonmichael]

Yours is parsing the command line correctly, but not the journal file. Eg руб is parsed as "\9572\1040\9572\1043\9576\9618" when it should be "\1088\1091\1073".

How did you install this hledger ? Built it yourself in this same Cygwin environment, or downloaded an exe... ?

[artkpv]

@simonmichael Thank you for your quick answers! Downloaded exe. Not in cygwin. At first I've installed Haskell Platform, then uninstalled it and followed steps at http://hledger.org/download.html using Powershell. It looks I better reinstall it to use under cygwin

[simonmichael]

Yes probably that will solve it. The exes which used to be linked from /download were non-cygwin builds created by https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/blob/master/appveyor.yml. If we ever link those again, there should be a note about this issue.

[artkpv]

@simonmichael I run git clone and stack install in the dir, in Cygwin under Administrator. While stack and GHC already installed (not cygwin). It broke with:

Not familiar with this. Thanks for any help or any hints/links. Trying again later.

[simonmichael]

This looks like https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2617 https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2617, a known problem with stack/ghc on windows. Until GHC 8.2 the workaround seems to be try it again until it succeeds or add -j1.

[artkpv]

@simonmichael What am I doing wrong here? I've run stack install hledger-lib hledger without errors eventually. It now works under powershell. Unicode is used for filtration. But under Cygwin it doesn't.

This is a binary you built in the cygwin environment, right ?

Sorry, but I don't have enough cygwin/windows expertise to know the answer. Is there a cygwin development community you can ask ?

Thanks for the report. Can you open this as a separate issue, and I'll reply there.

I have lost track of what's going here. I think filtering via non-ascii command-line argument wasn't working for a non-cygwin build in a cygwin shell, or vice versa. @w1ld could you summarise the latest status ? Any progress ?

[artkpv]

@simonmichael Thank you for your interest in fixing it. Lost track also. I think we can close it so far. I'll reinstall hledger and test again next.

The point is hledger does not work with Unicode symbols in my installation under Cygwin. Now it works under Powershell (see below). But does not work under Cygwin.

Cygwin:

I think the remaining action for this is to document somewhere that non-cygwin builds like the ones at http://hledger.org/download.html may have this kind of issue when run in cygwin, and perhaps vice versa.
