📄 Description

Fixes #6031

Allow mobile new transaction page to be prefilled via HTTP GET parameters. To test, use this branch and visit:

http://localhost:3001/transactions/new?category=Food&amount=23.42&account=HSBC&date=2025-10-31&cleared=true&payee=Kroger&notes=Das+ist+eine+Notiz.+Sie+ist+nicht+sehr+lang!

All input fields should be filled in with the content specified in the URL.

I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to include accounts, categories and payees in the effect dependencies. Would that work with a fresh empty budget? As stated in the issue, I have no experience whatsoever with React, so please point me to a better way if so.

Note

New mobile transaction form now auto-fills fields from HTTP GET parameters (amount, payee, category, account, date, cleared, notes).

  • Mobile UI (TransactionEdit.tsx):
    • Read URL search params via useSearchParams to prepopulate date, payee, account, category, amount, cleared, and notes when creating a new transaction.
    • Map account, category, payee names to IDs; validate date; fallback to last transaction/current day and route state when params missing.
    • Remove makeTemporaryTransactions helper and inline new temp transaction creation logic.
  • E2E Tests:
    • Add test verifying form is prefilled from URL params in e2e/transactions.mobile.test.ts.
  • Release Notes:
    • Add entry announcing URL-based prefilling for mobile new transaction page.
