* conditional export based on babel result

Hi all,

is there a possibility to exclude (or include) parts of the document
based on some babel source block result?

First some use case:
Say, I am doing a statistical test.  And only if the test turns out to be
significant, a follow-up analysis is carried out.

Is that possible?

One thinkable and ugly option would be to allow lisp-generated tags like
in this dummy example:

#+begin_org

* The Test
#+name: sometest
#+begin_src R
  test_result <- 0.03
#+end_src


** export maybe (if (< (string-to-number (sbe sometest)) 0.05) ":export:" ":noexport:")
The follow-up

#+end_org


Regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,

Perhaps you could generate the conditional parts of the document from
source code blocks?  Pass in your test result and either export "" or
#+begin_latex ... #+end_latex?

All the best,
Tom

Hi Andreas,

When doing something this complex you may just want to write your own
function which could say... take a subtree ID and a boolean flag as
arguments and then set the export flag on that subtree as appropriate.

The org-id-goto and org-toggle-comment functions may help in
implementing this function.

Best,

Hi Tom,

thanks for the suggestion.  I have indeed done that already but I will
avoid such things in the future.  It (a) feels wrong and (b) is ugly code
when I write (parts of) my document using print() and cat() functions.

Regards,
Andreas

Hi Eric,

in my opinion, there are more complex things in org-mode already ;-)

I agree, that such functionality doesn't need to be provided in org
itself.
Thanks a lot for the pointers to possible entry-points for an
implementation.  I hope, I'll find time to to go for it.  Would be good
for my elisp, anyway...

Regards,
Andreas

I am a bit late to the thread, but two possibilities come to mind:

1) write a brew template as

#+name: brewtemp
#+begin_src latex 
   ... 
#end_src block

then call it as 

#+begin_src R :noweb yes :results output latex
 brew(text=
   <<brewtemp>>
     )
#+end_src
 
Brew allows loops and conditionals over both markup and code, which
allows you to choose or skip a sub-document as the R code dictates. If
the sub-document is of modest size and complexity, this is reasonably
easy and the brew markup will be easy to read.

2) Use ravel (at https://github.com/chasberry/orgmode-accessories/) to
export an org subtree as a knitr parent document in Rnw format (akin to
Sweave) and another org subtree as a knitr child document. The parent
document must call the child from within a code block to allow loops and
conditionals. Then run knitr. For more complicated sub-documents, this
might work better than building brew templates in latex src blocks as
editting the org structure and retooling R src blocks is easier (for me
at least) than re-organizing a lengthy latex src block with embedded
brew calls.

HTH,

Chuck
