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

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 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

Thanks. 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. regards, Oleh ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

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. > 3.
