[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 443 bytes --]

Hi,

I'd quite like to be able to pass a formatting argument to {{{date}}},
much like {{{time(FMT)}}}.  This patch allows this.  I think macros don't
normally have optional arguments, but I find it OK here since it's time
and modification-time works anyway...

On the other hand there might be a good reason that I have overlooked for
why this isn't already accepting a formatting argument.

Any objections?

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] * ox.el: Allow {{{date}}} formatting

* ox.el (org-export-as): Allow {{{date}}} to take formatting-argument.

With optional argument, {{{date(FMT)}}} works like {{{time(FMT)}}} if
\#+DATE is a timestamp.

I have no objection, but please document it in the manual and add
appropriate tests.

I suggest

  (cons "date"
        (format
         "(eval (if (org-string-nw-p \"$1\") %s %S))"
         "(org-export-get-date info \"$1\")"
         (or (org-element-interpret-data (plist-get info :date))
             "")))

instead.

Please scratch that, reference to "info" will prevent us to move to use
lexical binding later. Something like this is required instead:

  (cons "date"
        (let* ((date (plist-get info :date))
               (value (or (org-element-interpret-data date) "")))
          (if (and (null (cdr date))
                   (eq (org-element-type (car date)) 'timestamp))
              (format "(eval (if (org-string-nw-p \"$1\") %s %S))"
                      (format "(org-timestamp-format '%S \"$1\")"
                              ;; Remove parent to avoid
                              ;; read error.
                              `(timestamp
                                ,(org-combine-plists
                                  (nth 1 (car date))
                                  '(:parent nil))))
                      value)
            value)))

I think the later part could use an `org-element-copy' function (to be
implemented).

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the tips.

Pushed as 8f38f03.  I added a org-NEWS entry, but I don't know if it
should be there.  Feel free to let me know or remove it yourself if it
shouldn't.

BTW: when figuring out how the heck macros works I came across two other
undocumented macros, namely {{{input-file}}} and
{{{property(PROPERTY-NAME)}}}.  I also added those to the manual.

Okay, that's cool.  I wasn't aware of %S.

Seems like it.  Perhaps next weekend!

Great.

No worries, I'll take care of it today.
