Hi,
This change in org-babel-python-var-to-python makes python code blocks
accept a string with text properties (as one gets when referring another
code block). I guess there should be something similar for other languages.

I don't understand why properties would be a problem here.
Can you elaborate a bit on this?
Thanks,

With format "%S" prints an s-expression via prin1, not a string. So
either the format should be "%s" or the properties need to be stripped
unless one really wants to interpret the result via read again.

Achim.

I think this is a simple typo and s/%S/%s would do.
I'll have a closer look and fix this later today.

The problem is that formatting as s-expression puts them into python code.
Here is what I want to do.
First edit a query string:
#+RESULTS: query
#+BEGIN_SRC sparql
select *
where { ?x rdf:label "x\\r"@en }
#+END_SRC
(The trick of naming this block with #+results: is so that:
1. org-edit-src-code uses the right mode
2. the code block is not evaluated
3. its body is passed as a string to other code blocks.
For lack of a better idea...)
Use the query string verbatim in another language:
#+NAME: py
#+BEGIN_SRC python :var q=query
# return some_graph.query(q)
return q
#+END_SRC
But now calling py() or tangling would give a syntax error because
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :var q=query
(org-babel-python-var-to-python q)
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
: ""#("select *
: where { ?x rdf:label \"x\\\\r\"@en }
: " 0 9 (face org-block font-lock-multiline t wrap-prefix #(" " 0 2
(face org-indent)) line-prefix nil font-lock-fontified t fontified t) 9
30 (face org-block font-lock-multiline t wrap-prefix #(" " 0 2 (face
org-indent)) line-prefix nil font-lock-fontified t fontified t) 30 35
(face org-block font-lock-multiline t font-lock-fontified t wrap-prefix
#(" " 0 2 (face org-indent)) line-prefix nil fontified t) 35 40 (face
org-block font-lock-multiline t font-lock-fontified t wrap-prefix #(" "
0 2 (face org-indent)) line-prefix nil fontified t) 40 41 (face
org-block font-lock-multiline t wrap-prefix #(" " 0 2 (face
org-indent)) line-prefix nil font-lock-fontified t fontified t) 41 42
(face org-block font-lock-multiline t wrap-prefix #(" " 0 2 (face
org-indent)) line-prefix nil font-lock-fontified t fontified t))""
If org-babel-python-var-to-python does
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :var q=query
(format "%S" (substring-no-properties q))
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
: "select *
: where { ?x rdf:label \"x\\\\r\"@en }
: "
then both evaluation and tangling work fine:
#+CALL: py()
#+RESULTS:
: select *
: where { ?x rdf:label "x\\r"@en }
Best,
Daniel

I've now fixed this by using %s instead of %S, let me know if this
works correctly for you.

Not quite. I thought %S was not a typo because it escapes characters
more nicely. E.g. with %s the buffer should contain \"\"\" to mean """
in python.
Also, one quote is missing
- (if (and (stringp var) (string-match "[\n\r]" var)) "\"\"%s\"\""
"%s")
+ (if (and (stringp var) (string-match "[\n\r]" var))
"\"\"\"%s\"\"\"" "\"%s\"")

I reverted my change -- can you resubmit a proper patch,
i.e. one with an Emacs changelog and using git format-patch?
Thanks!

If that's the intention, then %S is arguably a latent bug, since the
escaping it applies can only by accident be compatible with the targeted
language. I don't know if something like shell-quote arguments exists
for arbitrary programming languages.

Achim.

Maybe we should simply use %s (downcase) and escape quotes manually.
If feels less random to me.
What do you think?

I think using %S with strip-properties will address the great majority
of cases, and is certainly a better interim solution than the current
use of %s with no escaping. I find string escaping is *normally* very
consistent between languages.
Then if someone wants to read the python spec, and implement custom
string escaping that would be useful, but it isn't immediately required.
Alternately maybe python's long-form """ strings should be used in all
cases?

Okay, that's now the case in maint.

Indeed.
