Hi,

Given a todo list in an org file, is there already a function, that
converts this list to an elisp list, that contains at least heading,
deadline and properties?

Example input:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* TODO todo-test
  DEADLINE: <2012-04-19 Thu 13:33>
   :PROPERTIES:
   :notify:   notify-test
   :END:
* TODO todo-test2
  DEADLINE: <2012-05-20 Sun 16:66>
   :PROPERTIES:
   :notify:   notify-test2
   :END:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Example output:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
((file "test.org" heading "TODO todo-test" deadline (111 222 333)
       properties (notify notify-test))
 (file "test.org" heading "TODO todo-test2" deadline (123 456 789)
       properties (notify notify-test2)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Or are there functions, that could help me, to do it myself?
(I've tried with `org-agenda-get-day-entries', but without success...)

TIA for any help!

Hi,

If you load org-element.el from contrib/, I think the function
`org-element-parse-buffer' does what you want (and probably a whole lot
more).

Create the following interactive function. This functions exports Org
file to a *pretty* lisp file.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-export-as-lisp ()
  (interactive)
  (or (featurep 'pp) (require 'pp))
  (let ((out-file
	 (concat (file-name-sans-extension (buffer-file-name)) ".el")))
    (pp-display-expression (org-element-parse-buffer) "*Org Data*")
    (with-current-buffer "*Org Data*"
      (write-file out-file nil))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---



I am attaching sample todo.org and and the todo.el file created by the
above command.

Nice example.

Also, the OP may replace (org-element-parse-buffer) with
(org-element-parse-buffer 'headline) for quicker results, since parsed
headlines already contain all the required information.
