Doublecount

A double entry accounting system/library for Rust.

This project is very much inspired by beancount, however it currently presents a much simpler model. It has been designed to embed within other applications for the purpose of running accounting calculations.

Commodities within the system are represented using the primitives provided by the commodity library, which is in turn backed by rust_decimal.

This library is under active development, however it should already be usable for some simple purposes. There's likely to be some API changes in the future to allow transactions/actions to be streamed into the system, and also to support parallel computations of transactions to allow large programs to efficiently executed on multi-core computers.

Optional Features

The following features can be enabled to provide extra functionality:

• serde-support
  • Enables support for serialization/de-serialization via serde

Usage

    AccountStatus, EditAccountStatus, Account, Program, Action,
    ProgramState, Transaction, TransactionElement, BalanceAssertion,
    ActionTypeValue,
};
use commodity::{CommodityType, Commodity};

// Create a couple of accounts
let account1 = Rc::from(Account::new_with_id(Some("Account 1"), aud.id, None));
let account2 = Rc::from(Account::new_with_id(Some("Account 2"), aud.id, None));

// create a new program state, with accounts starting Closed
let mut program_state = ProgramState::new(
