Keep in mind in the responses below that - bean-web is deprecated and new features will not be supported, - bean-bake is implemented mainly using bean-web, - Fava should be used instead whenever possible. > > 1.

After making the fixes I wrote down below, it seems to work, i was able to get a 2019-04 to 2020-04 year. (Note: You need to follow the link to the index file in the archive.

If Fava doesn't support baking files for sharing, I'd like to suggest someone should build a tool that is purely focused on that (and does all kinds of special things just for sharing). All future built-in support for Beancount reporting will be done via SQL client. If there's a web front end in the future, it'll just be rendering the output of SQL statements and adding some whizbang. The current web app will be removed, and bean-bake will go eventually. > > Thank you! > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Beancount" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to beancount+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/beancount/44cbaae0-ef8b-4ea6-a2f8-aa4f6c8f1998%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/beancount/44cbaae0-ef8b-4ea6-a2f8-aa4f6c8f1998%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
