    internalMetadata: Record<string, unknown> = {}

    Internal metadata key-value pairs associated with this entry. These can be anything, are not used in the output, and are meant to be used to allow your pipeline to keep track of an internal property

    type: "blankline" = ...

    The type of this entry (e.g., 'open', 'close', 'transaction', 'comment', 'blankline')

    Methods

    • Transforms JSON data before creating an Entry instance. Default implementation returns the input unchanged. Subclasses can override this to handle custom deserialization logic (e.g., converting nested objects, handling dates, etc.).

      Parameters

      • json: Record<string, unknown>

        The JSON data to transform

      Returns Record<string, unknown>

      The transformed data ready for the constructor

    • Converts this entry to a formatted string with aligned columns. Default implementation delegates to toString(). Subclasses can override for custom formatting.

      Parameters

      • _formatOptions: FormatOptions = defaultFormatOptions

        Formatting options (unused in base implementation)

      Returns string

      The formatted string representation of this entry

    • Creates an Entry instance from JSON data. Calls fromJSONData to allow subclasses to transform the data before construction.

      Type Parameters

      Parameters

      • this: new (obj: any) => T
      • jsonString: string

        JSON data representing an entry

      Returns T
