Subject: Conditionally export certain sections based on predefined types
Date: Thu, 04 Dec 2014 10:59:39 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87iohrb5r8.fsf@enterprise.sectorq.net> (raw)

Not a great title, but I'm not sure how to explain what I want
succinctly. 

I'm trying to write a resume, and I'd like to be able to export
different versions of it for different things. For instance, I don't
necessarily want to include my hourly job experience when applying for a
programming job, and I'd like to exclude my programming and other
technical experience for certain job applications. 

I'm thinking something like this

* Work experience
** Some hourly job
   :PROPERTIES:
   :export-exclude: programming
   :END:

* Programming languages
  :PROPERTIES:
  :export-exclude: hourly
  :END:

Obviously it doesn't have to be properties, but I thought that was the
most clear way to explain what I'm looking for. So I'd like to be able
to export a specific type of resume, like a "programming" resume which
excludes hourly jobs or an "hourly" resume which excludes programming
language proficiency.

Is there a way to do this already? Is there a canonical way to create
this functionality? I'd rather not start hacking without a good idea of
how more knowledgeable users might tackle this.
