Subject: org-roam to HTML: My needs are unusual?
Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2022 12:03:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <197a9b8ca3c07860f8023bda719df048@posteo.de> (raw)

Hello together,

this post is not about a technical problem but I need your advice and 
opinion as experienced org(roam) users and developers. I am a bit 
frustrated.

Some of you have noticed that I tried to generate HTML files out of my 
org-roam notes. In the current state I am failed. On one side because of 
technical problems/bugs and on the other side because of tools not 
fitting my needs.

At the end I would subscribe my need like that:
I want all my org-roam-v2 notes (means org file with ID-links) 
transformed to HTML-files which I can use via file:// protocol (means 
without a server).

Sounds simple to me but the reality looks different. And I wonder if my 
use case is not so usual as I thought. Am I the only person experience 
that problems?

I tried ox-publish but there are problems (and known bugs [1]) with 
creating correct links/urls between the HTML-files based on the 
org-roam-v2-ID-links. I do not understand the technical details and I am 
not able to surly reproduce the problems. But I heard from many sides 
that I am not the only person with that problem.

ox-hugo with hugo is often mentioned in the context. But ox-hugo is not 
able to export everything out-of-the-box [2]. And the HTML files 
generated by hugo are not usable via the file:// protocol without some 
hacks [3].

My wish would be that the ox-publish would work. I prefer in-build 
things. But I am not sure how the result would look like if it work.

Currently I think about creating a Python tool parsing the org files by 
itself and doing all the needed stuff. But I do not want to waste my 
time here when the ox-publish problem is solved in the next months.

Thanks in advance
Christian
