Dear fellow org-users,

I would like to contribute some a new library into org-mode, which
performs automatic synchronization between tangled files and their
org-mode source blocks via a global minor mode
`org-babel-tangle-sync-mode' which uses the after-save-hook.

Full disclosure:

I created a MELPA package with similar functionality 3 years ago, but
it did not use the existing org libraries much and needlessly
reinvented many wheels:

  https://gitlab.com/mtekman/org-tanglesync.el

This is a complete (and very concise) rewrite that uses the org
framework and that I wish to incorporate into org-mode itself. My
changes to the org-mode main branch can be found here:

  https://gitlab.com/mtekman/org-mode (ob-tangle-sync branch)


A toy example of what this does would be as follows:

- Source =emacs_conf= org-mode file

#+begin_src bash :comments yes :tangle ~/.bashrc
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin
#+end_src

- Tangled =~/.bashrc= file

#+begin_src bash
# [[file:repos/_mtekman/emacs_conf.org::*bashrc][bashrc:1]]
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin
#+end_src

By activating =org-babel-tangle-sync-mode=, I can edit either of those
buffers and every time that I save it would automatically update the
other.  If I add the header argument =:tangle-sync <action>= then I
can specify an action of:
- skip :: do nothing, just save the buffer, even if the sync mode is active
- pull :: only pull changes from =~/.bashrc= into the Emacs_conf org-mode file
- export :: only export changes from Emacs_conf to =~/.bashrc=, even if called
            from =~/.bashrc=
- both :: (default) synchronize freely between tangled file and source block
          (the is also the nil value)

By default, the mode acts on any org-mode source block with =:tangle=
headers and any tangled file with file comments. This can be changed
by setting a list of "sync files" via =org-babel-tangle-sync-files=
which only acts if the source block exists in a file given in that
custom variable.


I'm currently trying to write tests for the library, but I would also
greatly welcome any feedback and comments on the currently written
code (attached as a diff, and also available in the above org-mode
repo)

As this is also my first time submitting directly to GNU Emacs, I, um,
might also need some hand-holding. I think I've followed the main
org-contribute guidelines, but I've likely missed or glossed over a
step or two.

Cheerful regards,

Mehmet

For the sake of consistency, perhaps import and export, rather than pull and

Absolutely - unless the "pull" / "push" crowd wants to chime in!

I'm also not 100% sold on the "both" action keyword. There,
writing "sync" would make more sense, but I'm hesitant to write
a =:tangle-sync sync= in the header.

Great idea!  Some inline comments below.

You only need to say #'expand-file-name instead of the quoted lambda.
Also, you need to set the variable, otherwise the variable
`org-babel-tangle-sync-files' is undefined.

What I have in mind is this:
    :set (lambda (var val) (set var (mapcar #'expand-file-name val)))

Here you don't have to use `progn' because it is implied from `save-excursion'.

Thanks! I've made your changes, and I've also incorporated John
Wiegley's comments about using "import" instead of "pull" as a
tangle-sync action word (small diff attached).

I've also written up my changes in the ~etc/ORG-NEWS~ and
targeted my custom variable for the 9.7 release (diff attached).

> Is there possibility to have a local minor mode (without introducing too
> much code changes)?

I initially tried it this way, but the problem is that an org
source block buffer might be in sync-mode, but it's
corresponding tangle file might not be, making any changes
asymmetric.

Another issue is in order to see the changes in the tangled file,
the tangle buffer needs to be reverted (with user prompt) which
then switches off the sync-mode for that buffer on reload.

One way around this (and it's something I implemented 3 years ago in
my messy org-tanglesync[0] MELPA code) is to set an explicit list of
"sync files", and then for Emacs to parse every =:tangle= header in a
given file when loaded (via =org-src-mode-hook=) to create an alist of
config files and their associated tangled files[1], such as
=((file1.conf . (tanglefile1.txt tanglefile2.txt etc)))=. Then, for
example, when ~tanglefile1.txt~ is loaded, Emacs knows that it should
load the sync-mode too.

This approach works reasonably well when the "sync files" list is
mandatory, but it's also prone to errors if a sync file is edited and
the alist of config files isn't updated, and the user would also lose
the flexibility of having ~ob-tangle-sync~ function everywhere.

I think a global minor mode is really elegant in this regard and I
wish I knew about it 3 years ago!

Best,
Mehmet

Do I understand correctly that your package is adding the following new
features:

1. Automatically manages balanced
   `org-babel-tangle'/`org-babel-detangle' in Org sources and target
   buffers.
2. Attempts to make more fine-grained tangling/detanging functionality
   by controlling tangling behaviour on per-src-block basis (via
   :tangle-sync skip/pull/export/both)

If so, I think that (2) probably belongs to the main babel code
(`org-babel-tangle' and `org-babel-detangle'). Since you are
contributing to Org directly, you are free to modify these functions as
you need.

Note that your current approach with `org-babel-tangle-sync-synchronize'
will give unexpected results when one edits multiple src blocks or the
corresponding tangled source in multiple places - the :tangle-sync value
is only checked at point and `org-babel-tangle'/`org-babel-detange' is
then called for the whole buffer, not just for the current code block.

That's... a really good point. I didn't consider that I'm calling a
tangle or detangle function on an entire file based on the
=:tangle-sync action= of a single block... which might have different
actions in another block for the same file!

I've attached a toy.org file which should explain what the desired
action would be in such a situation, and I fully agree that I will
likely need to modify the current tangle and detangle code so that the
sync direction is on a per-block basis, and not per-file.

I will work on this a bit more and submit a full patch with this in
mind.

Best,
Mehmet

#+TITLE: Sync Many Blocks
#+PROPERTY: header-args  :tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt :comments yes

* Default Tangle

 The =:tangle= target here is given by the ~PROPERTY~ header.  It is
 made up of three parts which synchronize with the tangled destination
 file in 3 different ways as given below: 

** File Contents
 
*** Free Head

#+begin_src conf
  This is some text that can be synced both ways
#+end_src

*** Pull Middle

#+begin_src conf  :tangle-sync import
  The middle text only retrieves from the default tangle file
#+end_src

*** Push tail

#+begin_src conf  :tangle-sync export
  This last piece of text only exports from the source org mode file.
#+end_src

* Desired Function

When =org-babel-tangle= is called, only the [[Free Head]] and [[Push tail]]
sections are tangled. The middle section in the tangled file is
_skipped_.

When =org-babel-detangle= is called, only the [[Pull Middle]] section is
updated here. The other two sections are _skipped_.

* Why skipped?

The functions suffixes explicitly state a direction (=tangle= /
=detangle=), and it's probably important that we retain this
directionality.

If we want to synchronize all blocks (i.e. import the middle section
from the tangled file during =org-babel-tangle=, and export the head
and tail sections during =org-babel-detangle=), then perhaps we set a
specific custom variable =(setq org-babel-tangle-alwayssync t)=?

Or, we create a specific function =org-babel-sync= (for lack of better
name) which tangles/detangles in whatever desired direction the source
block specifies.

Thanks.  Can you make a full patch from the current main branch to your
changes, with a commit message and so on?  This would help reviewers to
look at the full picture of what are modified.  Take a look at the
manpage git-format-patch(1) if you aren't sure how to do it.

For the commit message, take a look at
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#commit-messages for
inspirations.

Thanks for explaining this.  Yes, this sounds like a lot of work with
probably insufficient audience, so I'd wait for more use cases to come
up before thinking about local minor modes.

I'm at the moment patching the =org-babel-tangle= function, to act
appropriately to the =:tangle-sync <action>= requests.

It's harder than I thought, because the way the function currently
works is to populate a temporary buffer with source block contents and
then to overwrite the destination tangle file, i.e. it is unaware of
the tangled files contents during processing.

This is efficient, but works anathema to syncing changes in the
opposite direction, i.e. when a block requests =:tangle-sync import=.

I'm currently doing a small rewrite of the function that populates a
list of comments in the tangled file (restricted to stemming from the
source org file), and then either populates this temporary buffer with
the org mode source block contents or with the already tangled
contents (when "import" is given for that block).

I will submit a full patch with these changes (with properly detailed
commit messages) from the main branch in the next few days.

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1319 bytes --]

Hello again, sorry for the delay - I had some holiday time off
that couldn't wait ;-)

I've modified the ob-tangle.el file for the main tangling and
detangling functions.  Most importantly, both functions can now
exchange information from the source Org mode file to the target
remote tangle file in either direction, depending on whether the
source Org file has `:tangle-sync <action>' in the header.

The action is one of:

- "export" = always transmit information from the source Org mode
             block to the target remote file.
- "import" = always transmit information from the target remote
             file to the source Org mode block.
- "skip" = skip the block.
- "both" = transmit information from source block to target block
           or target block to source, depending on whether the
           tangle or detangle is called from the source buffer or
           the target buffer respectively.

These functions work at the whole buffer and at the per-block
level.  The `org-babel-tangle-sync' functions automate this
process by hooking into the `after-save-hook' and tangling /
detangling the current block.

I feel that I should write what the main motivation for this is:
Dotfiles that are always in sync with the org-mode files they
stem from.

Hope this turns into something big!
Best,

Mehmet

I noticed that you modified argument order of a public function
`org-babel-detangle' -- is it possible that you retain the order of
arguments?

The accumulated change you proposed is this:

-(defun org-babel-detangle (&optional source-code-file)
+(defun org-babel-detangle (&optional arg source-code-file ignore-header)

What I think it should be:

    (defun org-babel-detangle (&optional source-code-file arg ignore-header) ...)

This way, existing (external) users of this function can rest assured
that their code is not broken by your patchset.  Thoughts?

Good catch - I think I changed the order so that it would match
the interactivity of its sister function `org-babel-tangle', and
I think in a previous rendition of ob-tangle-sync.el, I called
`org-babel-detangle' interactively. But I see now that I no
longer directly call it anywhere in my edited code, so I can
easily change it back.

Attached is a patch

(Sorry for the previous top posting.)

One issue that I cannot seem to solve by myself is getting the
`org-babel-tangle-sync-mode' to persist on the `after-save-hook'
after it's been activated.  My understanding of this hook is
that it is global and persists across buffers, but I'm seeing
some inconsistent behaviour that requires me to toggle the mode
on and off again.

Is there something I'm missing?

Any hook can be local.

May it be better to make :tangle header argument compound?
Like ":tangle "file" export". Similar to :results header argument. See
"16.6 Results of Evaluation" section of Org manual.

Also, some general comments on the patches:

1. Please make sure that patches do not leave Org in broken state in the
   middle of the patchset. Your patch #1 adds two `defun's in the middle
   of `org-babel-detangle', which is not right.
   
2. When naming private functions, "--" should be after library prefix:
   org-babel--...
   
3. Please do not use private functions from third-party libraries. I am
   talking about `cl--set-buffer-substring' in particular.

4. Please make sure that docstrings clearly describe what the function
   does, each of its arguments, and the expected return value.
   In the patch, `org-babel-detangle--block-contents', NEAREST is
   ambiguous. The actual meaning is "block at point or previous block".

5. Pay attention to buffer boundaries. In particular, remember that
   buffer may be narrowed when you call a command and that expressions
   like (+ 2 (line-beginning-position)) may resolve beyond
   `point-min'/`point-max'.

6. Avoid using cryptic list functions like `cdadar' when you can use
   something more readable.

7. When naming functions or macros, make sure that the name is roughly
   describing the purpose of the function. In `org-babel-detangle', you
   added `single-block-metrics' local function that does not only do the
   metrics, but also (unexpectedly!) calls
   `org-babel-detangle-single-block'. This is especially important for
   local functions that lack docstring.

8. In `org-babel-tangle', (setq block-counter (+ 1 block-counter))
   appears to be misplaced into outer sexp level after your patch.

9. In commit messages, please mark newly added functions clearly.
   Like "(org-babel-foo): New function. It does this and that."
   Same for commit summaries - "lisp/ob-tangle.el: Detangle a single
   block" is awkward. You should clearly indicate that you added
   something new to the library.

Ah, that solves the problem immediately thank you!

That's a great idea I had not considered, and would definitely reduce
the header bloat, especially since `:tangle-sync' *requires* the
`:tangle' header to be there.

Great!

Thanks, I will rename `org-babel-detangle-single-block--from-source'.

So initially I used `(setf (buffer-substring X Y) new-content)` but I
recieved a warning from Emacs that it was an obsolete generalized
variable.

After some searching I found this entry in an emacs fork used the cl
library:
  https://github.com/emacs-citar/citar/commit/809953a2191d0e3217ffbed9270be9b3cd6abfd2

Since `(require 'cl-lib)' is already imported in ~ob-tangle.el~, I did
not think it was too taboo to use. How does one then set the buffer
substring?

Apologies. I rebased and squashed all my commits into one, and then
selectively staged hunks into seperate commits for the git format-patc
process.  For some reason the diff function decided that the new
functions should exist right in the middle of an existing function and I
was not sure how to resolve it at the time (though I have a better idea
now).

I will take better care with the messages. I tried to look for previous
"[ANN]" postings in the mailing list that I could emulate, but didn't
pay enough attention it seems.

I'm finally using `gnus' as my mail client so I'm slowly getting into a
more streamlined mindset that should be better at submitting and
formatting patches. (To reply to a mailing list, I do a wide reply to
the author and hope that the `Mail-Followup-To' header is used?)

Apropos patches:
Given how broken my current patches are, my next set of changes will be
not contingent on the previous ones. I will start a new set of patches.
I hope that's okay.

Best,
Mehmet

On closer inspection it might actually be unpractical to have the sync
action within the `:tangle' syntax, the main reason being that people
might define the tangle target in the document header for ease of use.

e.g.

#+begin_example

#+TITLE: Sync Many Blocks
#+PROPERTY: header-args  :tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt :comments yes

** File Contents
 
*** Free Head

#+begin_src conf
  This is some text that can be synced both ways by default
#+end_src

*** Import

#+begin_src conf :tangle-sync import
  This is text that can only be imported from the remote, but it still
  refers to the default tangle argument
#+end_src

#+end_example

If we instead encode the sync action in the `:tangle' syntax then users
will have to explicitly type out the tangle file in each block.

Also, tangle-sync wouldn't be the only extra tangle-related property in
a block, since tangle-mode is also a thing.

Is it okay to leave `:tangle-sync' as it is?

This is not a problem.

Try

#+PROPERTY: header-args :results drawer output

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results value
(list 1 2)
#+end_src

#+begin_src bash
echo 1 2
#+end_src

Yup. See https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/87tu5fzu2r.fsf@localhost/
We need to do things manually.

Private functions are a subject of change without notice. That's why we
do not use them, unless they are _our_ private functions we have control
about.

`replace-region-contents'.

Interactive rebase is helpful.
You can also edit, reset files, or apply patches in the middle of
rebasing to do extra adjustments.

Just try to follow what we usually do in commit messages. See

Reply all, or wide reply should be the right way. We do not want to
exclude participants who are not subscribed to the mailing list.

A common approach is changing subject to [PATCH v2] ...
You can also use so-called reroll count when generating patchset from
git (or magit).

I'm having some problems getting:

 `:tangle <tangle/yes/no/<filename>> [import/export/both/skip]'

to work nicely with the existing framework. The main issue lies in the
`:any` keyword in `org-babel-common-header-args-w-values' for the tangle
entry making it difficult to determine where one exclusionary group
begins and where the other ends.

e.g.

(defconst org-babel-common-header-args-w-values
    ...
    (tangle	. ((tangle yes no :any)
     		   (import export skip sync)))
    ...
)

If I remove the :any keyword, these two groups work with the existing
framework in `org-babel-merge-params', but this would then mean that the
first tangle argument can't just be a filename string. I can get around
it by changing `:any' to `file' and then letting users describe their
tangle headers via e.g. `:tangle file import file: /some/file' but this
would be a breaking change.

In the meantime I put together a hacky solution that parses the tangle
header independently (`org-babel--handle-tangle-args') with the aim that
the first argument should ideally define a tangle filename action and
the second argument should ideally define a tangle sync action.

Please see the attached minor patch (diff) and a toy org example file.

And the reason is that tangle function inside `org-babel-merge-params'
does not know how to handle :any in exclusive groups.

We should modify it. For example like the following:

1. We will assume that :any can only occur one time in the exclusive
   groups. (Otherwise, there is no single definite way to parse header
   arguments)
2. Merge function will treat :any specially - when parameter does not
   match any of the argument values from all the groups combined, it is
   considered as :any and replace the previous corresponding values in
   its exclusive group, if any;
   In other words, we will need a special match for :any - "anything not
   equal to other values in all the groups combined".

Makes sense (or we could revamp all header parsing into some kind of
finite state machine… (I joke… for now…))

This is something that I do in my `org-babel--handle-tangle-args', where
the "filename" argument is the result of eliminating all other entries
in the group.

Agreed, and I can try putting together something working in a day or
two. Or, if this is something you can easily implement yourself, please
do let me know.

Best,

Of course! I'm just a little unfamiliar on how one coordinates active

I've modified the `merge' function within `org-babel-merge-params' so
that the main logic now accumulates a list of potential candidates that
could be the :any keyword, and selects the last added candidate as the
match.

The first two patches are very minor, simply adding
tangle-exclusive-groups using the existing code templates. The last
patch is the merge function rewrite.

It all seems to be passing tests, though I would like to add my toy.org
file to the org testing framework at some point.

Best,
Mehmet

Usually, we leave working on the patches to one person - whoever is the
most interested in the patch.

Maintainers and other interested users provide comments and suggestions.

I feel confused when reading the modified code.

I recommend trying various edge cases with your patch.
In particular:

1. Testing exclusive group inheritance when we inherit a header arg
   value that matches :any:

   #+PROPERTIES: header-args :tangle "foo.txt"
   #+begin_src ... :tangle no

   #+PROPERTIES: header-args :tangle no
   #+begin_src ... :tangle "foo.txt"

   #+PROPERTIES: header-args :tangle no
   * Heading
   :PROPERTIES:
   :header-args: :tangle "foo.txt"
   :END:
   #+begin_src ... :tangle yes

2. :tangle "file with spaces.txt"

I feel that the following code is not reliable when we inherit exact and
:any exclusive group members in alternations.

Hello, thanks for the last review and sorry for the lapse in
communication. May is proving to be a very strange month.

Okay, I guess comments are not my strong suit. I will try to remove any
unnecessary comments and use better variable names.

I think before I do any more disastrous changes, I will try to expand
the existing ert test suite to incorporate my toy org file and your
above examples.

That way I'd at least have a consistent framework to validate some of my
work.

Ah, hmm - can you give me an example here? I thought the idea was that
an :any string would only be invokable once for a given header
parameter.

No, comments were useful. They revealed that our understanding of the
expected behaviour might differ.

See the above 3 examples: (1) "foo.txt" shadowed by "no"; (2) "no"
shadowed by "foo.txt"; (3) "no" shadowed by "foo.txt" then shadowed by
"yes".

You can also consider "foo.txt" shadowed by "bar.txt" and other
variations.

I've created a small patch that contains a single ert test function that
checks an example org file I made (based on the above as well as my own
toy file) to try to validate the `org-babel-merge-params' rewrite.

I've attached it below in case you want to test it...

...but there were a few cases where I wasn't entirely sure what the
result of the merge was supposed to be:

For example, a document with:

> #+TITLE: Header tests
> #+PROPERTY: header-args :tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt
> 
> * Inherit tangle header from document
>

I would expect the output of:

    (assoc :tangle (nth 2 (org-babel-get-src-block-info)))

within that block to evaluate to the contents written in that
block. Instead it evaluates to `(:tangle . no)' when run in a vanilla
Emacs. Is this expected?


Another example:

> * Header args overwritten by local header
> :PROPERTIES:
> :header-args: :tangle "foo.txt"
> :END:
> #+begin_src :tangle yes
>    (:tangle . foo.txt)
> #+end_src
>
> ** Inherited header
> 
> #+begin_src :tangle "file with spaces.txt"
>   (:tangle . "file with spaces.txt")
> #+end_src

The first block correctly gives "foo.txt" under vanilla Emacs, but the
second block also gives "foo.txt". Is this expected behaviour?


Best,
Mehmet

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] * testing/examples/header_test.org: New example test file

  Contains several source blocks with document, heading, block header
  arguments

* testing/lisp/test-ob.el (test-ob/merge-params): New test function
for `org-babel-merge-params' validation.

  This function takes a list of all the ID properties for each of the
  blocks in `header_test.org', along with a symbol or list of header
  properties to test against.  The expected value is written within
  the block contents.

Is the patch testing your code?

(Note on the ert tests: we generally prefer `org-test-with-temp-text' -
the old approach with test IDs is not very readable because one needs to
search those IDs manually when debugging test failures.)

You forgot C-c C-c on the PROPERTY line, or re-opening the file.
#+PROPERTY lines are not automatically parsed when you add them. They
are only parsed upon explicit request (C-c C-c) or when opening the
file.

You forgot to specify the source block languages. Org sees your example
as two src blocks of language ":tangle" with no proper header arguments.
(See M-x org-lint)

If you add a language, like 
 #+begin_src conf :tangle yes
    (:tangle . foo.txt)
 #+end_src

The expected result is (:tangle . "yes") for the first block and
(:tangle . "file with spaces.txt") for the second block.

Ah, running `org-lint' and correcting the header line as well as adding
languages to the other blocks fixed the mistakes - thanks for this, I
thought I was losing my mind.

I also think I did not realise what "yes" did until now. I assumed it
defaulted to the last given filename in the hierarchy, but after reading
the manual I see that it just sets it to the name of the org file.

It is, but please ignore it for now. I will rewrite to to conform to the
`org-test-with-temp-text' examples.

Apologies, this patch has been burning in the back of mind for a
while now, but I keep getting distracted with other random side
projects.

I appreciate the wake up call, and I will refocus my efforts next
week in my free time.

Hello again!

General recap of where we are so far with this patch:

 The tangle-sync mode I wished to implement had some ambiguities
 when resolving `:tangle' headers. This turned out to be a
 general problem for any header that had multiple parameters, so
 the merge-params function was re-written. This introduced some
 ambiguities in itself, so we decided to write a better testing
 framework for it.

So I've just rewritten the `merge-params' testing function I
wrote before, this time using the `org-test-with-temp-text'
method/macro.

I seem to be getting 5 failing tests for reasons that I'm not
quite sure why. I've tested it against upstream/main, but still
getting the same errors. Maybe you can try it and see where I'm
going wrong?

The patch does not rely on any previous patches

Best,
Mehmet

Side note: You are re-implementing the already available ERT features
for failed test reporting. Instead of controlling which tests failed
manually, you should better follow the example of all other tests and
simply use a sequence of `should'/`should-not' forms.

If you did that, ERT would by itself report which tests fail and why.

I am getting the following failures:

6 Failed Blocks: (tangle-file-with-spaces override-document-and-heading-tfile-with-yes ignore-document-header-take-last-tfile-and-sync-action inherit-document-tfile-take-only-last-local-sync-action inherit-document-header-with-local-sync-action inherit-document-header-args)

This is failing because of subtlety in `org-test-with-temp-text' that
inserts text after activating org-mode.
PROPERTY lines are only computed when org-mode is activated, unless you
explicitly call `org-set-regexps-and-options' to refresh them.

Your code does not refresh those and PROPERTY line is not being handled
by Org.

Same story for other tests with PROPERTY.

This fails because you did not provide LANG for source block.
override-document-and-heading-tfile-with-yes test is also missing LANG.

P.S. There going to be Emacs meetup this Saturday, July 22
(https://emacs-apac.gitlab.io/announcements/july-2023/). I plan to be
there and, if you need it, we can try to resolve difficulties in more
interactive way.

I am currently travelling this weekend, otherwise I happily would
attend so that this patch could speed forward. Next month maybe?

Okay, it's working as intended now.

Thanks, I thought I fixed this last time you mentioned it but
apparently only in my mind...

Okay, I've re-written this to conform to the `should' macros.  I
*really* wish these macros could be named so that I could debug
failing statements better, but for now numbering them in the
comments and using the `l' binding works well enough for
debugging.

I have two tests that I've set to "should-not" pass for now, but
once the correct merging behaviour has been implemented, I
believe that I will change them to "should" pass statements:

- 9. do-not-tangle-this-block
- 12. tangle-file-with-spaces

Attached is the new diff (travelling makes it hard to write
meaningful commit messages so I did not use git-format-patch),
which should be used against the upstream/main.

Looking forward to further feedback!

Best,
Mehmet

Another meetup is on July 26. https://emacs-berlin.org/
Or we can arrange a jitsi call.

To name them, you can use separate ert-deftest statements.
Also, see the attached modified version of your diff - I made it so that
`should' failures immediately provide some clue about expected result
value, that can help to identify which of the should clauses fails.

The tests are indeed not passing on vanilla Org. I assume that you
tested them with your other patch applied.

Ah nice, much appreciated thank you. I was hesitant to split out the
main testing function (previously called by `funcall') into its own
function out of the same fears as above, but I see now it's not the
only one.

I tested them on upstream/main... or so I thought, though I now
realise that I needed to delete the =~/.emacs.d/straight/build/org=
directory to trigger a rebuild of org-mode for the current branch I
was on. (Live and learn...)

Problem: My testing patch is indeed not working on vanilla Org, but it
         contains tests that will (presumably) work with the new
         merge-params patch.

Question: What is the order of submission of patches?

          Do I submit a testing patch first which works strictly with
          vanilla Org first, and then a new merge-params function, and
          then yet another testing patch that is compliant with the
          new merge-params function?

          Or do I submit the new merge-params function, and then my
          testing patch on top?

Best,
Mehmet

Ok.
There are several talks planned at the beginning, and we may discuss your
patch after those.

That should not normally be necessary. Not sure what happened in your
setup.

Either way is fine. The latter should be easier for you though.

I went with the former way. I just want to get a set of standardized
tests into org-mode that I can base a future branch on to really see
what is working and what is not.

I've adapted this to write a git patch which currently passes with
upstream/main, and contains a few `should-not` statements which are
planned to be `should` statements after the merge function has been
patched for the `:tangle' multi-parameter property.

Best,
Mehmet

I do not like the idea of putting unrelated tests to upsteam. They may
confuse people reading the sources before your follow-up patch is merged.

Is there any specific reason why you want to merge these tests now and
not later, when you submit the full patch?

Convenience on my part, and closure of the many many patch branches
that I have open.

But I think you're right, and tomorrow evening I will just bite the bullet and
submit a merged-params patch. That is:
* An updated merged params function
* New testing suite for the merge params

Till then

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3218 bytes --]

Hello again,

I've attached two patches:

1. Tests for the existing merge parameters function, based on your
   last edits to my previous patch.

2. A rewrite of the entire merge parameters function, with the new
   tangle sync actions.

   It's a big patch mostly, because there were no intermediate commits
   in which the org framework wouldn't be broken. Hope that's okay!

** Brief Explanation of (2)

This attempts to address the problem of having an :any keyword in a
mutually exclusive group such as:

#+begin_src elisp
   '((tangle yes no :any)
     (import export skip sync))
#+end_src

Since every parameter (e.g. "export") is tested against both of these
groups, and since a parameter that matches `:any' could be anything,
then a parameter like "export" will match in both groups.

To get around this, a merge strategy (see: `org-babel--merge-headers')
builds an alist of exclusion groups that a parameter could belong to.

e.g for a header with `:tangle myfile.txt skip' would give an alist of

#+begin_src elisp
  (setq params-alist '(("skip" "tangle" "import")
                       ("myfile.txt" "tangle")))
#+end_src

Note that the exclusion groups are referenced by the first element in
the group, acting as an alist key of sorts. This assumes that each
exclusion group has a unique car.

Parameters with two or more cdr elements are stripped of the exclusion
group that have the `:any' parameter (i.e. "tangle"), resulting in:

#+begin_src elisp
  (setq params-alist '(("skip" "import")
                       ("myfile.txt" "tangle")))
#+end_src

This alist is then inverted so that the group exclusion car becomes
the key, and rearranged so that it follows the order of exclusion
group definition (in this case, "tangle" group first then then
"import" group).

#+begin_src elisp
  (setq group-alist '(("tangle" "myfile.txt")
                      ("import" "skip")))
#+end_src

As the merge parameters function is called repeatedly for the same
header, this builds to hold the whole related hierarchy of the org:

#+begin_src org
  ,#+PROPERTIES: header-args :tangle topfile.txt import

  ,* One
  :PROPERTIES:
  :header-args: :tangle skip
  :END:

  ,#+begin_src bash :tangle myfile.txt

  ,#+end_src
#+end_src

 which would yield:

#+begin_src elisp
  (setq group-alist '(("tangle" "myfile.txt" "no" "topfile.txt")
                      ("import" "skip" "import")))
#+end_src

Assuming the hierarchy is given in the reverse order of this alist,
the correct action is then taken as the car of these groups:

   `:tangle myfile.txt skip'


** Problems

It seems to work well for most tests, except for the "file with
spaces.txt" which I'm not sure how to proceed with. I feel like
patching at the level `org-babel--merge-params' is the wrong way to
go, and that I should patch it further upstream.

That upstream leads to `org-babel-read' which currently chomps the
quotes off anything it gets:

#+begin_src elisp
  (org-babel-read " \"my file with quotes\" ")
#+end_src

I don't know if this is the expected behaviour for quoted strings with
spaces, so before I proceed trying to patch this I thought I would
check in with you and ask whether I should start patching here or not.


Best,
Mehmet

(org-babel-merge-params): merge headers strategy split out into new
dedicated function `--merge-headers'
(org-babel--merge-headers): new function that resolves headers based
on their mutually exclusive groups, with better support for groups
with `:any' keywords.
(org-babel-common-header-args-w-values): Added mutually exclusive
tangle groups relating to desired tangle sync actions

* testing/lisp/test-ob.el: update tests according to new merge
strategy, with emphasis on `:tangle' headers for syncing actions.

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 332 bytes --]

Okay, and now I've patched the related string splitting functions so that
        ("let's get \"ready to rumble\" now")
is split into:
        ("let's" "get" "ready to rumble" "now")

All my tests are passing but a few unrelated ones are failing so I'll need
 to dig more into what's going on there. Attached is the 3rd patch

Best

This is indeed a problem.
Org cannot distinguish between

#+begin_src lang :foo value with spaces
and
#+begin_src lang :foo "value with spaces"

What we can do it make `org-babel-read' assign a text property to the
resulting string when it is a string with quotes:

(org-babel-read "my file with quotes") ; => "my file with quotes"
(org-babel-read "\"my file with quotes\"") ; => #("my file with quotes" 0 19 (org-babel-quote t))

Then, we can later use this information in `org-babel-merge-params'.
We will not call `split-string', when 'org-babel-quote text property is
present.
Also, `split-string' won't work when we have something like

"yes \"my file with quotes\""

Instead, we should use
(mapcar #'org-babel-read (org-babel-balanced-split "yes \"my file with quotes\"" ?\s))

> -    (tangle	. ((tangle yes no :any)))
> +    (tangle	. ((tangle yes no :any)
> +                  (import export skip sync)))

Please update the docstring, following conventions:
1. First line should be a short full sentence explaining what function
does briefly.
2. Each argument should be explained - what it is and what is the
   structure.

Also, RESULT-PARAMS is confusing because it is no longer just used for
:results. Please rename.

Can simply
(push val (alist-get key alist nil nil #'equal))

This is not a "problem" - just something to consider. You can omit

paragraphs.

The expected function parameters should be described in the docstring,
not in a comment.

`cl-find' will be simpler.

Should be
(setq unexplained-params (delete-dups unexplained-params))

`delete-dups' _returns_ the modified list, which may or may not preserve
the initial pointer to the first cons cell.

Thanks for the review!

The help mentions that it stores the result in the list, and it looks
like it works

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(let ((x '(1 2 1 2 3))) (delete-dups x) x)
#+END_SRC

See my next patch, it implements a quote aware string splitting
function which is used just for the tangle headers. Is my
implementation there enough, without having to use text
properties?

This is a big source of confusion for me, since I don't really
know how to implement this extra merging behaviour *without*
first having tangle headers implemented, since no other element
 in `org-babel-common-header-args-w-values' has multiple
 exclusion groups where at least one has `:any'

This is just implementation detail.
As a general good practice, destructive list manipulation commands
should follow (setq foo (command foo)) pattern.

We already have `org-babel-balanced-split'. Your patch will be a code
duplication.

Also, your patch will not handle
#+begin_src lang :tangle "tangle yes file"
vs.
#+begin_src lang :tangle tangle yes file

The new merging behavior does not have be used just yet.
We first implement the capability to handle exclusive groups with :any
and later, in another patch, make use of the new capability.
Does it make sense?

Pre-weekend update: I have a `merge-params' solution, and it's passing tests.

I will need to refactor/cherry pick my branch somehow to make the patch
less "tangle sync"-centric, but I'm sure I can make it work.

Side note: I had one newly added test failing on the latest main. You
may need to rebase your branch and check if tests are still passing.

FYI: Interactive rebasing with magit is a lot easier.

The rebase was fine, but I'm having a problem aligning my patch branch
to work without any tangle involvement.

The first hurdle is that I'm a little bit unsure about the validity of one of
 the tests.

* Under vanilla `org-babel-merge-params', any number of :tangle header
  values are permitted and concatenated together.

  e.g 4:
  __________
  ´
    (should  ;; 4.
override-document-and-parent-header-with-local-tfile-and-action
     (equal '(:tangle "randomfile sync")
            (org-test-with-temp-text
                "\
  #+PROPERTY: header-args :tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt
  * Four
  :PROPERTIES:
  :header-args: :tangle \"newfile.txt\" import
  :END:
  ** A
  #+begin_src conf :tangle randomfile sync
  #+end_src"
              (test-ob/get-src-block-property :tangle))))
  `-----------

  This result of "randomfile sync" for the :tangle header is seen as
  valid.... but it shouldn't, should it? Tangle can only take one value,
  so the action of `:any` should also just output one value?

  From the docstring text:

  > Symbol `:any' in the value list implies that any value is allowed.

  It's not clear to me if this means that `:any' or `:any :any` or
  `":any :any"` is permitted.

  In my rewrite, I very much take the `:any` or `":any :any"` single
  value interpretation when merging the headers together.

* Sometimes the value of another header is caught in the value of
  another

  e.g 8: "wrap" is caught in the output of `:results' despite it not being
         a valid results keyword in `org-babel-common-header-args-w-values'.

   __________
  ´
    (should  ;; 8. test-results-and-exports
     (equal '(:results "wrap file replace" :exports "code")
            (org-test-with-temp-text
                "\
  * Eight
  #+begin_src sh :results file wrap
  #+end_src"
              (test-ob/get-src-block-property '(:results :exports)))))
    (should  ;; 9. do-not-tangle-this-block --
  `-----------

  This test results in "true" for both my rewrite, and the vanilla
  function, but I'm not sure how accurate or value this is.


I've been reordering and splitting commits for a while now, but I think
it's really not easy to seperate the new tangle-sync component from my
merge-params rewrite.

I've attached my patches, including fixes from the last review you gave
- I hope you can make more sense of this than I can.

Best,
Mehmet

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] * lisp/ob-core.el: Rewrite of merge babel headers

(org-babel-merge-params): merge headers strategy split out into new
dedicated function `--merge-headers'
(org-babel--merge-headers): new function that resolves headers based
on their mutually exclusive groups, with better support for groups
with `:any' keywords.

Ignore the patches in that last email, (but please do address some of
the concerns I had about the number of `:any` outputs).

Anyway, I finally did it - I got it to work. Every single patch now
pasts tests.

Please review these patches and *not the patches in the last email*.
(Apologies for the frequency of my emails today)

Best,
Mehmet

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] * lisp/ob-core.el: Rewrite of merge babel headers

(org-babel-merge-params): merge headers strategy split out into new
dedicated function `--merge-headers'
(org-babel--merge-headers): new function that resolves headers based
on their mutually exclusive groups, with better support for groups
with `:any' keywords.

* lisp/test-ob.el (test-ob/merge-params): Very minor test value update
due to rewrite

It is not possible to distinguish between `:any' and `:any any' without
reading the user's mind :)
So, we can choose arbitrarily.

Since the previous version of the code used split-string and
unconditionally split the arguments at whitespace, I am inclined to
prefer `:any :any' over greedy version.

So,

#+begin_src lang :tangle yes foo no bar baz "foo bar"

should yield

'("yes" "foo" "no" "bar" "baz" #("foo bar" 0 7 (org-babel-quote t)))

We will allow using quotes to include whitespace.

This is basically a question about what to do when user supplies
incorrect value of a header arg.

In such scenarios, we still capture this unknown value.
This is useful for some third-party backends that extend standard header
args with new possible values.

Hope the above makes sense.

Okay, I will definitely need to refactor my patches then, but I'm
quite happy with the state of my current patch branch, so it will
be an additional patch instead of a brand new set of patches
I think.

Best,

Consider the following edge case:

#+PROPERTY: header-args :tangle "file name with spaces and no word.txt"

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle sync
#+end_src

With your patch, I got :tangle "file name with spaces and no word.txt sync".

Also, there is actually a big problem across Org where :tangle parameter
is often checked using expressions like (cdr (assq :tangle (nth 2 info)))
No splitting is done, and the assumption is made that the value cannot be
compound.

It looks like we are opening a Pandora box with this feature. And rather
than fixing all the places that use :tangle across Org, we may need to
create a new API to retrieve header argument values uniformly, without
knowing the details about how to split PARAMS string.

We may have to use the approach employed for :results header argument
where in addition to (:results . "string value"), we have
(:result-params "sub-value" "sub-value" ...).

:result-params is now handled by `org-babel-process-params'.
We may need to extend this function to work with all the possible header
arguments that have multiple exclusive groups and do not have a single
allowed value.

Hello, I'm a bit overworked at the moment, sorry for the delay in
response.

Isn't this similar to my `:tangle-sync' parameter, i.e, completely separate
from the `:tangle' header itself but complementary to it?

Why can't we just go back to that?

Best

No worries. We are not in hurry. Take your time as needed and comfortable.

No. :result-params is not an actual header argument. It is
implementation detail - parsing :results header arg internally produces
(:results . "all the values concatenated") and _also_ (:result-params
"val 1" "val 2" ...).

> Why can't we just go back to that?

We can. I did not expect that we would need to go this far into the
rabbit hole. Although, I still think that unifying header argument
parsing is something worth doing, even if I need to implement it myself.

Hmm... what is the benefit if they encode the same
information? (e.g. :tangle "one two \"three and four\"" vs
:tangle-params "one" "two "three and four").

Edit: Oh, I see -- Org parses the action from the `:tangle-params'
and Users can extend tangle as much as they want via `:tangle'

Hah, me either. At the same time, it doesn't make sense to have
`:tangle-sync' present in one release of Org-mode and then deprecated in
the next (after your header rewrite). It would just confuse users.

I'm happy to have another go at a unified header approach, I will
just need to explore the code base a bit more.

No, not really. The main purpose is to avoid calling `split-string'
every time we need to check :results settings.

Thanks! Feel free to ask anything. Babel code is not always easy to read.

It has been a while since the most recent message in this thread.
May I know if you need any further help with the patch?

Hey, thanks for reaching out.

No, I know what to do -- it's just finding the time to do it that is
proving difficult.

I made some small edits a few months ago, to reform the header arguments
so that tangle actions would be encoded in the `:tangle-params' header
and would largely leave the `:tangle' header alone… but when I tested
it, it was failing all tests for reasons I wasn't to sure about.

Here is the current state of my header-reform branch:

If you have any insight into why the tests are failing, I'd greatly
appreciate it.

Do you mean that tests are not running at all?
If yes, it is likely because of

                         ^^^^^^^^^ this

`read-char' tries to read a character input from keyboard. That's why
you get tests not running. Maybe just (setq action "export" file raw-tangle)?

All good, I know how it is, especially the grind towards the end of the
year.

Brilliant, everything seems to at least be working now on this branch. I
think I can springboard off this and try to put together something a bit
more refined, though probably over the winter/holiday period.

Cheers,
Mehmet

Hey Mehmet and Org!

I'd like to ask if I could contribute to this. I have followed the
discussion to a point, but would be more than happy to try and
contribute to this so it gets merged for the next Org major version, as
I've been waiting for this for quite a while now. It solves the major
gripe I had with your original org-tangle-sync.el package, which is the
ability to sync blocks that aren't whole files.

So, what still needs to be done and where is development happening (I
assumed it was on the main Org-mode git repository, but I see no branch
there)?

Cheers,

That's the plan, and I'll happily take any help I can get.

Yep, and the fix for that was really quite trivial. If I knew what I
know now about org source blocks, I would have rewritten that entire
library very differently.

The development is happening chaotically on my own repo
(gitlab.com/mtekman/org-mode) across several incomplete branches.

I've actually been working on it on and off for the last two weeks, but
I've been facing some rebasing issues that I need to tackle first before
I actually push anything to a branch that anyone can work on.

Can you wait until Sunday for me to resolve this, and then we can
discuss?

Best,
Mehmet

Hello João and org!

Okay, I've cleaned up my branches and rebased where I could, and now I
think my code is at a place where you can jump in.

This will be a long email summarizing what's been done so far, where the
pitfalls were, where we are now, and what needs to be done:

So, my code is hosted at =https://gitlab.com/mtekman/org-mode= and with
the exception of the =header-reform= branch, is about 1 year behind
upstream.

* Ancient History

Here we detail what some of ideas and pitfalls were. The main takeaway
message is that we want to keep all sync actions everything within
":tangle", and we want to unify mutual exclusivity and hierarchical
merging with ":results".

You're probably already familiar with all this, but if not, here goes:


*** Initial PR: `:tangle-sync' adds a sync parameter

This was the initial PR that implemented two-way syncing via a new
:tangle-sync header parameter. The work was performed in the
=ob-tangle-sync-2023= branch, specifically the commit range:
=34727abb6...2f0f54d68=, and specifically localized mainly in the file
=ob-tangle-sync.el=.

This :tangle-sync parameter described in what direction a block should
be synced: either "export", "import", "skip", or "sync".

e.g.1 :tangle filename :tangle-sync action

#+begin_src bash :tangle export_this_file.bash :tangle-sync export
  echo file and sync-action as seperate header args
#+end_src

That git branch also reworked the detangle framework in the
=ob-tangle.el= file, allowing it to detangle on a more block basis than
it was doing before.

*** New effort: Rework the existing `:tangle' to take filename and sync parameter

As the code developed and started impacting more of =ob-tangle.el= code
base, it was suggested that instead of creating an entirely new header
argument (which would add to the complexity of the org code base), why
shouldn't we simply compound the sync command to the existing :tangle
header?

e.g.2 :tangle filename sync-action

#+begin_src bash :tangle export_this_file.bash export
  echo file and sync-action under the same banner
#+end_src

with the implication that the last word in the :tangle string would be
a sync keyword.

This now meant that instead of working on the =ob-tangle-sync.el= and
=ob.tangle.el= files, that we would also need to start affecting the
=ob-core.el= code.

This is what commits =4b9d05d8c...HEAD= in the =ob-tangle-sync-2023=
branch attempted to do, by making use of the mutual-exclusive keyword
framework already present for :results

#+begin_src elisp
  ;; see: org-babel-common-header-args-w-values
  '(results	. ((file list vector table scalar verbatim)
    	       (raw html latex org code pp drawer link graphics)
    	       (replace silent none discard append prepend)
    	       (output value)))
  ;;
  (tangle . ((tangle yes no :any)
             (import export skip sync))) ;; added
#+end_src

This way someone can specify mutually exclusive values in headers such
as:

e.g.3 
#+begin_src bash :results file raw replace output
  echo multiple compounding results values which are all valid
#+end_src

or, hopefully, in the case for :tangle, something like:

e.g.4:
#+begin_example
:tangle yes sync   ;; filename inherited 
:tangle no export  ;; nothing should happen
:tangle my_custom_file.sh import   ;; imports specifically from that file
#+end_example

*** New problem: `:results' and `:tangle' mutually exclusive groups are not alike

You may notice that the `:results' mutually exclusive values and the
`:tangle' mutually exclusive values differ on one problematic value:
":any"

#+begin_src elisp
  (tangle . ((tangle yes no :any)
             (import export skip sync)))
#+end_src

This `:any' parameter means that the first argument of the tangle header
could be of any arbitrary length and take on any value… including those
specific values that we need as the sync-action in the second argument.
Oh dear!

e.g.5:
#+begin_example
:tangle filename.sh export   ;; easily resolvable
:tangle import import        ;; uh... we import? and assume the filename comes up the hirarchy
:tangle import export        ;; uh... we assume they are both sync-actions but only last is valid?
#+end_example

And this gets even worse if we have to consider filenames with spaces:

e.g.6: 
#+begin_example
:tangle filename with spaces.sh     ;; filename only, inherit sync action from elsewhere
:tangle filename with spaces sync   ;; Um. We sync, and assume the filename is "filename with spaces"?
#+end_example

*** Solution: Custom splitting tangle function

Okay, so the problems shown in examples 5 and 6 can be fixed quite
easily - you just split the whole tangle header by spaces, and test if
the last word is a valid sync-action or not.

This was implemented in the splitting function
=org-babel--handle-tangle-args= which specifically handles that header.

But once again, we see the code base splitting into custom
header-keyword-specific solutions instead of making one coherent unified
approach for handling mutually exclusive arguments.

That is, ideally, :results and :tangle should be handled by the same
methods, especially in regards to:

1. Processing parameters

   `org-babel-process-params' evaluates header values (I think?), and in
   the case of :results, also splits it into parameters, namely a somewhat
   hidden parameter named `:result-params'.

   This has the benefit that the `:results' header arg is correctly
   split into its component mutually exclusive groups (stored in
   `:result-params'), but that the initial `:results' raw string is
   still kept and widely processed for the majority of cases where the
   value of this parameter is not complex.

2. Merging parameters

   `org-babel-merge-params' merges parameters with the same header
   keyword across hierarchies, so that the final block knows what its
   final parameters are.

   e.g.7:

   #+begin_src org
     ,#+PROPERTY: header-args :tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt

     ,#+begin_src conf :tangle import
       Import text
     ,#+end_src
   #+end_src

   The tangle parameters at the top-level PROPERTY are merged down
   into the source code block, giving a final :tangle result of:

   #+begin_src elisp
     (merge ":tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt export" ;; the export sync-action is implied
            ":tangle nil import")                    ;; the nil filename is somehow inferred
   #+end_src

   which should eventually result in final parameters
   ":tangle /tmp/default_tangle.txt import"  for that block.


*** Unified Merge function

I have several (unimaginatively named) branches like merge-params-first,
merge-params-second, ..., merge-params-fif that attempted to implement a
unified merge strategy for the `:tangle filename sync-action' idea.

The latest (read: cleanest branch) is the `merge-params-fif' branch with
diff =1866c0825= implementing a new =org-babel--merge-headers= function
which tries to act as a unified approach to merging :tangle :results and
:export headers.

It worked (to some degree), but it tripped up on issue of having
"filenames with spaces", so I think this might be dead code at this
point, especially since we pivoted towards `:tangle-params' being a
solution for resolving sync actions.

(Essentially, you can ignore any branch prefixed with "merge-params-*")


* Where we are now

The branch I have most recently worked on (I rebased it earlier this
week) is called =header-reform=. It splits a :tangle header such as

this =:tangle filename with space.txt export=
into =:tangle-params ("filename with space.txt" "export")=

such that it does not interfere with the rest of org headers.

This is where I would greatly need you help, João.

The work still to be done from my perspective:

1. Implement tests  <<- we are here

   We need to know what the desired behaviour of :tangle and
   :tangle-params will be in different contexts.

   I have written 12 test cases as a start, but some contexts are
   still unclear to me and I cannot do this alone.

   Please see the second and third patches attached to this email.
   

2. Unified merge function

   Something that handles tangle-params and result-params, as well
   something that can handle mutually exclusive groups such as tangle
   and results, especially when the :any keyword is involved.

3. Rebase/Edit the tangle-sync changes from the =ob-tangle-sync-2023= branch

   Finally add the two way syncing functionality for tangled blocks.


I've attached the two working patches from the =header-reform= branch to
this mail, and one floating WIP inline patch which should get things
started.

Apologies for the length, I just wanted to summarize the efforts and
show where you could come in.

@Ihor please feel free to clarify anything I've written that sounds not
quite right. (And thanks to all for the infinite patience!)

Thank you for the summary. Albeit long, it was quite important to
understand all of the discussions and decisions so far. I tried keeping
track of every thing on this long, long thread, but couldn't follow up
with everything, so it was incredibly helpful of you to give such a
complete summary.

So, if I understand correctly, =header-reform= is where we're at right
now and after we're done with this overhauling of the parsing of
(mutually exclusive) header params, we'll get back to the actual syncing
logic, which should be mostly done.

Ok I'll start here as I think writing tests could give me some more
insights on the core problems that still need solution.

> 2. Unified merge function

I do have a couple of questions regarding this:

>    Something that handles tangle-params and result-params,

1. So the idea is to continue parsing multi-option header arguments into
   their separate components, but have a common place to, after parsing
   it into their components, handle them all in a single place? I mean,
   what does "handle" mean in this context?

>    as well
>    something that can handle mutually exclusive groups such as tangle
>    and results, especially when the :any keyword is involved.

2. Isn't that the same as the previous point? If we can handle any
   *-params doesn't that solve the problem of handling mutually
   exclusive groups? We can just define a pattern of parsing them into
   individual *-params and handling that in a unified manner.

Are these patches also on the branch (apart from the WIP one)?

As I said in the beginning, I'm actually quite grateful for the
summarizing!

From my point of view, we need some API function to retrieve header
argument values. Instead of the current approach with

  (result-params (cdr (assq :result-params params)))

we need something like

  (org-babel-get-header-arg :results params) ; get parsed parameter
  (org-babel-get-header-arg :results params 'raw) ; get raw parameter

Then, babel backends will not need to know the internal details about
:results parameter being represented in its two forms stored as :results
and as :result-params.

Exactly -- reform the headers first (branch: header-reform) and then
add the sync stuff later (branch: ob-tangle-sync-2023).

Yeah, at least from my side I got really confused with what the expected
actions of some :tangle parameters were. Let me know if you find any
ambiguous cases too.

Hah, good question. I think by "handle" I mean three things:

1. Ensure that :tangle remains as the raw string :tangle so that other
  parts of Org can use it without needing to guess if there is a sync
  action in there or not. I quite like Ihor's suggestion:

2. Ensure that :tangle or :tangle-params can merge both filenames and
  sync-actions down the hierarchy.

  In my last email I talk about "process-params" (splitting the filename
  and sync-action) and "merge-params" (resolve hierarchy) as two
  separate entities, where a :tangle header is first "merged" down to a
  header, then "merged" down to a subheading, then "merged" down to a
  source block, and then finally "processed"...

  ... but now that I think about it, it's quite likely that "merge" and
  "process" are interlinked, and we will need something that is aware of
  what the "filename sync-action" pair is, at EVERY level of the
  hierarchy. As in, it processes a header first, then merges it down, then
  processes the next header, and then merges that down, and so forth.

  Right now, process-params and merge-params are two independent code
  blocks, but I think one might need to start calling the other.

3. Do this in such a way that :results can also benefit from this
  process/merge strategy.

Yes, it's the same point :-)

Creating a unified *-params handler for mutually exclusive groups would
probably fix all 3 problems.

If I'm understanding you correctly, do you mean we leave the normal
header merging and processing alone, and we just treat :tangle-params
and :result-params as their own special group, and handle them
independently of :tangle and :results?

If so, I'm not so sure how easy it is due to my second point above.

> Are these patches also on the branch (apart from the WIP one)?

Yep, those patches as well as the WIP one are also on that branch. My
coding strategy right now is to develop chaotically on =header-reform=
and then do cherry picking/rebasing afterwards.

If you want I can give you push privileges to that branch, or you can
clone it and work in your own tidier manner, or do you prefer working
with email patches?

Best,
Mehmet

It has been over a month since the last email in this thread.
May I know if you need any further help from us?

João, may I know if you are still interested to work on this patch?
