Hello,
I am a long time org-mode user, this my first time posting to the email list,
and before I ask my question I first want to say thanks to all those who are
helping maintain and grow this terrific software.
I maintain a single org-mode file with half my life in it. It
contains my journal, my task list, contacts, and notes on various projects. I
use tags to indicate what content is associated to what content.
What I would like to do is publish multiple html exports of this file, filtered
by tag. A file that comprises of journal entries that are tagged for
work. Another with journal entries that are tagged as personal highlights I want
to take special note of.
This file's path is at ~/notes/org/index.org. I'd like to export the filtered
version of this file to ~/notes/export/index.html
~/notes/export/index_[tagname].html and to change each filtered export's title.
So far in my reading of the docs, this does not seem possible. It seems you
cannot indicate the export result file name. But I can indicate path. So
following is a sample org-publish-project-alist that that filters by tag and
puts the result in different publishing directories. But I still can't figure
out how to change the title on those exported pages. Can anyone provide me with
any pointers?
(setq org-publish-project-alist
'(
("highlights"
:base-directory "~/notes/org/"
:base-extension "org"
:publishing-directory "~/notes/export"
:publishing-function org-publish-org-to-html
:select-tags ("highlight")
:include ("index.org")
)
("work"
:base-directory "~/notes/org/"
:base-extension "org"
:publishing-directory "~/notes/export/work/"
:publishing-function org-publish-org-to-html
:select-tags ("@WORK")
:include ("index.org")
:exclude "\\.org$"
)
("home"
:base-directory "~/notes/org/"
:base-extension "org"
:publishing-directory "~/notes/export/home/"
:publishing-function org-publish-org-to-html
:select-tags ("@HOME")
:include ("index.org")
:exclude "\\.org$"
:link-up
)
))
I am using org-version 6.33f and Emacs 23.1.9 on OS-X.
Thank you in advance,
Karl

I hope I described how this is similar to that but different. I a have content spread across subtrees I want to gather by tag and export using similar variables to these. I *could* reorganize my file to use seperate subtrees, but it seems a shame to do so since having an internal blog-like structure for my journal that I can filter by tag just maps real well to how I work and think.

The issue with #+TITLE in the buffer is that it is the same file I am exporting various times, just with different tag filters, and the title then remains the same for each export, where I want it to reflect the subset of the file, ie Karl's Work Journal, or Karl's Home Journal. A workaround that just occurred to me: I could write a method that would change the #+TITLE value in the buffer, then org-reload, before exporting the component in the list. That should work. But am I missing something? Thanks again, org-mode is fantastic and has helped me wrangle a lot of complexity into something portable and easy to use. It's been a lifesaver for me :) Thanks, Karl >> (setq org-publish-project-alist >> '( >> ("highlights" >> :base-directory "~/notes/org/" >> :base-extension "org" >> :publishing-directory "~/notes/export" >> :publishing-function org-publish-org-to-html >> :select-tags ("highlight") >> :include ("index.org") > > I have not tried it, but if you do not have #+TITLE in the buffer, > then > :title "This is my title" > > in the publishing plist might work.

If called from an org-mode file, it will try to export each subtree, respecting the values of EXPORT_FILE_NAME and EXPORT_TITLE. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (defun org-export-parts () (interactive) (org-map-entries (lambda () (outline-mark-subtree) (org-export-as-html nil)))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- it shouldn't be difficult to augment the above to set exporting options based on the values of subtree tags. If this isn't sufficient, and you want really powerful templating of different classes of html files you could try out jekyll [1], and some of the org-jekyll solutions [2].

Eric, thanks for the tip as well.

Dye @ 2010-05-23 18:49 UTC (permalink / raw) To: kmartino; +Cc: emacs-orgmode, carsten.dominik Aloha all, Karl's setup specified keyword arguments for :select-tags but not for :exclude-tags. When I tried this setup with only :select-tags it worked as expected for the select tag that occurs first in the Org- mode file, but the publishing project defined for the select tag that occurs second in the Org-mode file did not work as expected. In this case, trees with both select tags appear in the output file. I solved my problem by also specifying exclude tags. Here is the setup that worked for me. -------- .emacs fragment ---------- (add-to-list 'org-publish-project-alist '("work" :base-directory "~/org/temp/" :base-extension "org" :publishing-directory "~/org/temp/publish-work/" :publishing-function org-publish-org-to-latex :select-tags ("@WORK") :exclude-tags ("@HOME") :title "Work Notes" :include ("index.org") :exclude "\\.org$" )) (add-to-list 'org-publish-project-alist '("home" :base-directory "~/org/temp/" :base-extension "org" :publishing-directory "~/org/temp/publish-home/" :publishing-function org-publish-org-to-latex :select-tags ("@HOME") :exclude-tags ("@WORK") :title "Home Phone" :include ("index.org") :exclude "\\.org$" )) -------- .emacs fragment ---------- -------- org-mode file ---------- * Work notes :@WORK: This should end up in publish-work. * Home notes :@HOME: This should end up in publish-home. -------- org-mode file ---------- I'm wondering, is it really possible to get the expected results specifying only select tags and not exclude tags?

I get different export results depending on where I specify the select tag. Given the following org-mode file, specifying the select tag in the file header with #+EXPORT_SELECT_TAGS: @WORK exports only the tree tagged with @WORK, but specifying the select tag in the publishing setup with :select-tags ("@WORK"), and without any specification in the file header, exports two trees, the first untagged tree and the tree tagged with @WORK. Is this the expected behavior? ---------- org file ------------- * Untagged notes before tags Where do these go? * Work notes :@WORK: This should end up somewhere. * Home notes :@HOME: This should end up somewhere else. ---------- org file ------------- All the best, Tom On May 23, 2010, at 10:57 AM, Carsten Dominik wrote: > > On May 23, 2010, at 8:49 PM, Thomas S.

Of course not. And I cannot reproduce it either. Maybe you need to make me an exact test case, with minimal .emacs, and both testcase files.

I'm trying to document the different ways to export part of an org file to LaTeX in the hope of augmenting the tutorial on Worg. I thought I understood the tag selection logic, so the results I got puzzled me. Now that I know the expected behavior, I'll look more closely to see why I'm not getting it. Hopefully, I'll be able to puzzle it through myself and won't have to pester you and the list with my idea of a minimal .emacs, etc. I appreciate your offer to take another look if I'm not successful.

Dye @ 2010-05-25 3:38 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Carsten Dominik; +Cc: kmartino, emacs-orgmode Aloha Carsten, I think I need to know what is meant by "minimal .emacs." I've poked around quite a bit now and have discovered two things: 1) Two lines in Karl's org-publish-project-alist triggered the unexpected behavior. These are the lines with the :include and :exclude keywords. 2) The unexpected behavior only occurs when org-publish-project-alist also contains a project of the form ("project-name" :components ("project-name" "project-name" ...)). Here, I've only checked the situation where the offending project involves sub-projects that are not Karl's. I have two reservations about putting together a "minimal .emacs": 1) I'm using Eric Schulte's literate emacs starter kit, so my initialization files are split up into many parts, only two of which I fiddle with. I'm happily ignorant of what goes on before my two org configuration files get processed by Eric's code. 2) The org-publish-project-alist variable in my configuration contains paths that are (probably) unique to my system. That said, if a minimal .emacs is required, please give me some direction and I'll do what I can.

Two questions: 1) Do programmers have a name for this situation, where custom settings seemed to work perfectly for a long time but then failed noticeably with the introduction of new, correct code into the .emacs? 2) Is there a useful strategy for finding the minimal .emacs that illustrates the failure? I might have 100 customizations in the various starter kit configuration files. If combinations of customizations are a possibility, I'm looking at quite a bit of random experimentation without some kind of strategy.

I have a single .emacs that's (mostly) a sequence of (conditional) loads/requires of individual package config files. I just comment out the whole thing, verify correct operation, and then uncomment out the first/second half and try again. With 100 packages, 7 cycles will get you down to a single package and then you just do the same thing within the package config file.

After much semi-informed tinkering, I think I've isolated one problem. As background, this problem cropped up for me when I incorporated Karl Martino's setup for exporting parts of an org file to different targets. With the following minimal .emacs, org-publish-get-project-from- filename reports (wrong-type-argument stringp ("index.org")). This function is called when I select [P] publish current project from *Org Export/Publishing Help*. I've included a backtrace below. I discovered this behavior after I incorporated Karl's publication project into my lengthy org-publish-projects-alist. Then, I was unable to publish any of my projects using [P] publish current project. They all returned the same error-- (wrong-type-argument stringp ("index.org")).

When I tried :include "index.org" I got this: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument sequencep 105) concat("~/org/temp/" 105) (expand-file-name (concat base-dir f)) ... I'm not going to pretend I know what I'm talking about here, but AFAICT the variable i in the following code needs some attention before it goes to string-match. According to the documentation, plist- get just returns the value assigned to a property (or nil) without doing anything to it, so i should be a list when it is passed to string-match. string-match wants REGEXP here, apparently not as a list. I couldn't persuade emacs to cough up the definition of REGEXP, but my brief forays into the emacs and org-mode source code lead me to believe it is probably a string. > (defun org-publish-get-project-from-filename (filename &optional up) > "Return the project FILENAME belongs." > (let* ((filename (expand-file-name filename)) > project-name) > > (catch 'p-found > (dolist (prj org-publish-project-alist) > (unless (plist-get (cdr prj) :components) > ;; [[info:org:Selecting%20files]] shows how this is supposed to > work: > (let* ((r (plist-get (cdr prj) :recursive)) > (b (expand-file-name (plist-get (cdr prj) :base-directory))) > (x (plist-get (cdr prj) :base-extension)) > (e (plist-get (cdr prj) :exclude)) > (i (plist-get (cdr prj) :include)) > (xm (concat "^" b (if r ".+" "[^/]+") "\\.\\(" x "\\)$"))) > (when (or > (and i (string-match i filename)) All the best, Tom [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 7401 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 201 bytes --] _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
