Windows: the preprocess and construct scripts are not executed
mwesten opened this issue · 1 comments
Describe the bug
When using hledger-flow on windows the preprocess and construct scripts that are called from src\CSVImports.hs (line 70/71) cannot be called.
On Windows executable files or scripts need a file-extension, not just only an executable attribute, hence windows doesn't know what to do with the preprocess and construct scripts.
You could for example try to find a preprocess.bat and construct.bat of preprocess.py and construct.py to get these scripts to execute.
Version and Runtime Information
$ hledger-flow --version
hledger-flow 0.13.2.0 mingw32 x86_64 ghc 8.8
This is the last git version I'm running (just updated)
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS: Windows10 Pro
- Version 1909
Hi @mwesten, thanks for these reports. I do not personally have a Windows system available.
I would be happy to accept a pull request that fixes these issues if you are interested in doing it.
About this specific issue - what happens if you just name the script preprocess.bat? Will it then run the batch script on Windows even though it is called without naming an extension?
