Hello,
To get a list of tasks which I've completed today, I guess we must have:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-log-done t) ; default
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I mean: I guess it's more dangerous to try and play with the "state
changes" information stored in the LOGBOOK drawer as people can easily
modify them (see `org-log-note-headings').
Under the above assumption, the request becomes:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
'("." "Completed today"
((todo "DONE|CANX"
((org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'notregexp "CLOSED: \\[2014-02-13"))
(org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(priority-down)))))) t)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
... for today.
But how can I include today's date in a programmatic way (so that it
continues to work tomorrow ;-))?
Best regards,
Seb

That one is solved by doing this:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
'("." "Completed today"
((todo ""
((org-agenda-skip-function
'(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'notregexp (format-time-string "CLOSED: \\[%Y-%m-%d")))))
(org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(priority-down)))))) t)
#+end_src

Seb

I don't really understand the lisp, but I'm guessing that %Y, %m, and %d
hold the current year, month, and day, respectively, so I can see how
the regex could be modified to deal with "last year" and "last month".
However, more useful to me would be "last week", so what approach should
I take for that?
Cheers,
Loris

Note that the above DOES NOT WORK if you don't specify TODO states such as:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
((todo "DONE|CANX"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I have the impression this is a bug.
Moreover, you should even add active states such as "TODO" for
repeatable actions which do go back to the "TODO" state; hence, it
becomes:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
((todo "TODO|DONE|CANX"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I guess you should begin playing with things such as:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(time-add (current-time) (seconds-to-time -86400))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
to point to yesterday, etc.
But I'm not sure this is the right approach...
Best regards,
Seb

I get pretty decent mileage out of this command (note that it's a
tags search, not a todo keyword search.) (add-to-list
'org-agenda-custom-commands '("." "Closed this week." tags
"CLOSED>\"<-1w>\"" ((org-agenda-sorting-strategy
'(priority-down))))) Though now I've got a related question.
One thing I'd like to do is run a function over every item that
was closed this past week. For sake of example, let's say I've
added a property ":mood: 5" to several closed items and I'd like
to delete it (but only from the closed items; I'm not necessarily
deleting the property globally.)
To do this I tried pulling all the closed items, visiting them in
turn, and calling (org-delete-property "mood"). But I got stuck
pulling all the closed items, because `org-tags-view' and friends
all build an agenda as a side effect.
Is my best bet simply re-implementing the parts of `org-tags-view'
that I need?
Or is there a more common way to use the org machinery to work
with items in lisp code?
Thanks!

Boo, reflowed text or some nonsense. Let's see if this works
better:
(add-to-list 'org-agenda-custom-commands
'("." "Closed this week."
tags "CLOSED>\"<-1w>\""
((org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(priority-down)))))

You should be able to do this with the mapping and property APIs:
(info "(org) Using the mapping API")
(info "(org) Using the property API")
