Hello!
I do some elisp code to download the latest RSS feeds from some resource:
(setq debug-on-error t)
(org-mode)
(org-feed-update
'("arxiv"
"http://export.arxiv.org/rss/astro-ph"
(concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org"))
"arXiv.org"
)
)
The goal is to get an unique Org file for feeds per day. However, the error is rising:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp (concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org")))
expand-file-name((concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org")))
find-file-noselect((concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org")) nil nil nil)
find-file((concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org")))
org-feed-goto-inbox-internal((concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org")) "arXiv.org")
byte-code("\306 \"\307\n\"\310\311
\"\211\312+\211,\203]
When I hardcode a string instead of (concat ...) everything is ok. The subject is also not in format-time-string, it is exactly in concat. The type returned by concat is the stringp, so the situation is very strange. I also tried to use org-feed-alist, and local variable instead of calling concat, nothing helps.
Regards,
Evgeny

The quote in front of ("arxiv"
> '("arxiv"
"quotes" the following list, i.e. Emacs does not evaluate the Lisp
expressions inside the list but processes it as pure data.
To calculate the file name each time you call `org-feed-update' either
leave out the quotes like:
(org-feed-update (list "arxiv" "http://export.arxiv.org/rss/astro-ph" (concat … )))
-or-
Use backquotes:
http://www.gnu.org/s/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Backquote.html
(org-feed-update
`("arxiv"
"http://export.arxiv.org/rss/astro-ph"
,(concat "~/org/arxiv-" (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d.org"))
"arXiv.org"
)
)
The ` means: The following structure is data except the parts with the
backquote ,.
