Dear all,
Does anyone get org-download.el to work under Mac OSX? I'm struggling to
get it work, but it seems to help a lot, empowering org to handle images a
lot easier.
I believe I've installed org-download.el correctly, but when I'm dragging
and drop the image into an org buffer, all I get is the link address
inserted into the buffer, no downloading events trigger.
I double checked a few things before coming here:
- My system has both curl and download.
- I've set the download image dir to ~/Downloads/Foo
- The value of dnd-protocol-alist contains
("^\\(https?\\|ftp\\|file\\|nfs\\)://" . org-download-dnd)
The emacs I'm using is "GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS
apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2013-03-13 on bob.porkrind.org"
Is there any thought what I should check?
Best,
Chao

either that, or they are not in the path used in emacs (are they
installed via e.. homebrew?).
Depending on how you set the paths, the emacs process might have
different paths.

Thanks for the advice, but I've wget and curl installed through Mac ports.
$ which crul => /usr/texbin/curl
$ which wget => /usr/texbin/wget
And the value of my exec-path is:
("/usr/bin" "/bin" "/usr/sbin" "/sbin"
"/Applications/Documents/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/libexec"
"/Applications/Documents/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin"
"/Applications/Mathematics/MATLAB_R2014a.app/bin"
"/Applications/Documents/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin" "*/usr/texbin*"
"/opt/local/bin" "/usr/local/bin")
which has included /usr/texbin
Any thoughts? Thanks.

I'm the org-download author. I've mentioned these things on the tracker,
but there's no harm to posting here additionally.
I don't have OSX, so I can't test it. However, it should work in
theory, since all tools used are portable.
Try using `org-download-yank' first: this one does everything except
drag-and-drop. Just right click and copy the image url in the browser,
and call `org-download-yank' in Emacs. If it doesn't work, the issue is
with dnd, otherwise it's with the downloading itself.
The default `org-download-backend 'uses `url-retrieve', which is a part of
Emacs, so if it doesn't work then it's an Emacs bug.
regards,
Oleh

Hi Oleh,
Thanks for the detailed instruction. I just checked following your advice,
by copying the address of the image (and by looking at the browser-ring, I
can make sure the address has been there), then M-x org-download-yank,
returns error: "if: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, nil".
Also I tried (org-download-yank "the-address-to-the-image"), which does not
work either.
Do you have any insight? Thanks.
Best,
Chao

Alright, we're getting somewhere now.
1. Have you made any customizations to `org-download`? It's easier for
me to proceed with the defaults.
2. As I'm testing now, I can get a "Wrong type argument:
number-or-marker-p, nil" error if the org-mode file in question is
empty or the cursor is before the first heading. Is this the case for you?
I'll fix this case soon anyway.
3. If this doesn't work, try the following simplified function:
(defun org-download-yank-1 ()
(interactive)
(let ((filename "./foo.png"))
(org-download--image
"https://www.google.nl/images/srpr/logo11w.png"
filename)
(insert (format "[[%s]]" filename))
(org-display-inline-images)))
If this one doesn't work as well, I can proceed from there.

Oleh

Hi all,
I've made a blog post regarding today's improvements to org-download
at http://oremacs.com/2015/01/18/sprucing-up-org-download/.
The post also links to a video demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAojpHR-6Uo

Hi Oleh,
Thanks a lot for the detailed instruction again, and the screencast is a
good job as well! I just did the testing. Please see below.
1. Have you made any customizations to `org-download`? It's easier for
me to proceed with the defaults.
*-- No, all I did is (require 'org-download)*
2. As I'm testing now, I can get a "Wrong type argument:
number-or-marker-p, nil" error if the org-mode file in question is
empty or the cursor is before the first heading. Is this the case for
you?
I'll fix this case soon anyway.
-- *Not really, I made a test.org <http://test.org> then insert some
heading, then tried (org-download-yank) with the web address on top of
kill-ring, which did not trig the download events as well.*
3. If this doesn't work, try the following simplified function:
(defun org-download-yank-1 ()
(interactive)
(let ((filename "./foo.png"))
(org-download--image
"https://www.google.nl/images/srpr/logo11w.png"
filename)
(insert (format "[[%s]]" filename))
(org-display-inline-images)))
*-- This one works! The google logo gets into my test.org <http://test.org>
buffer, which is a good signal~*
Please let me know if there's any further instruction. And thanks for the
help~~
Best,
Chao

It is important that the point should be not before the first
heading. Is this the case? Also, are you using the Github version? I
haven't yet propagated the changes to the org-contrib version.

OK, this means that at least `org-download-yank` can be fixed very soon.
And, as I recall, the dnd works for some OSX users.
Let's not bother the nice org-people and continue the discussion here:
