* Need help on org-exp-blocks and dot

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 621 bytes --]

Hello. Trying to use org-exp-blocks with dot to export a graphic in
generated html file. Works on linux box.

However, on a mac box everything except the graph is generated. Instead of
pulling in the graphic, it just prints dot_somehashednumber.png. As far as I
can tell, that png is not generated anywhere and left in a file system
either.

Dot works standalone from a terminal window. Paths seem to be right and
emacs isn't complaining about loading org-exp-blocks.

The emacs version on the mac is 23.1.1. I have (require 'org-exp-blocks) in
the .emacs file.

Any suggestions on what to look for next?

Thanks,

Bryan

  Hi Bryan,
  
  For generating dot graphics from Org-mode it is now suggested to use a
  normal code block rather than org-exp-blocks, for example the following
  should generate a graph when pressing C-c C-c on the block, and on
  export should include the resulting graph rather than the code block.
  
  from http://www.graphviz.org/Gallery/directed/fsm.gv.txt
  #+begin_src dot :file fsa.png :exports results
    digraph finite_state_machine {
            rankdir=LR;
            size="8,5"
            node [shape = doublecircle]; LR_0 LR_3 LR_4 LR_8;
            node [shape = circle];
            LR_0 -> LR_2 [ label = "SS(B)" ];
            LR_0 -> LR_1 [ label = "SS(S)" ];
            LR_1 -> LR_3 [ label = "S($end)" ];
            LR_2 -> LR_6 [ label = "SS(b)" ];
            LR_2 -> LR_5 [ label = "SS(a)" ];
            LR_2 -> LR_4 [ label = "S(A)" ];
            LR_5 -> LR_7 [ label = "S(b)" ];
            LR_5 -> LR_5 [ label = "S(a)" ];
            LR_6 -> LR_6 [ label = "S(b)" ];
            LR_6 -> LR_5 [ label = "S(a)" ];
            LR_7 -> LR_8 [ label = "S(b)" ];
            LR_7 -> LR_5 [ label = "S(a)" ];
            LR_8 -> LR_6 [ label = "S(b)" ];
            LR_8 -> LR_5 [ label = "S(a)" ];
    }
  #+end_src
  
  Cheers -- Eric

    Hi,
    
    Now getting an error message: /bin/bash: dot: command not found
    
    Hmm. Pathname issue?
    
    On the mac, dot is in /opt/local/bin/dot
    My .emacs file has: (setq load-path (cons "/opt/local/bin" load-path))
    
    I can certainly just open a terminal window and run dot from the command
    line.
    
    Thanks for any further suggestions.
    
    Bryan,

      Absolutely.

      That won't add anything to your shell's path, it's just where Emacs
      looks for code to load.

      Can you grep your shell startup files and find out which one adds
      /opt/local/bin to the path?

        .profile has:

          /usr/local/bin is also in /etc/paths

            How are you echoing path, starting up a terminal, or within
            Emacs M-x shell?
            
            What if you try M-x getenv <RET> PATH <RET> in Emacs?

              back when I had to use a mac, I would just symlink paths into standard
              locations, e.g.
              
                ln -s /opt/local/bin/dot /usr/bin/dot
              
              Maybe not the most elegant solution, but it works reliably
              
              To do this the *right* way you can update the PATH environment variable
              *within* Emacs by doing something like the following
              
              (setenv "PATH" (concat "/opt/local/bin/:" (getenv "PATH")))
              
              Cheers -- Eric

                Thank you Eric and Erik for the incredibly quick troubleshooting. I updated
                .emacs with the setenv command suggested by Eric, restarted emacs and
                everything now works as expected.
                
                Bryan
