I'm trying to prepare a ledger report by including a ledger file with babel:

#+begin_src ledger :cmdline print
!include ledger.lgr
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:

And each time I try and eval the buffer, the results come back blank.
 org-confirm-babel-evaluate works perfectly fine with other blocks, like
sh, and it works for ledger blocks embedded in org source blocks (described
in the tutorial), but I can't get !include to load an external file.

I'm trying to include some ledger content copied from
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/weaving-a-budget.html , and the
'print' option in ledger should always emit some output.

Is this a known issue that hasn't been updated in that tutorial?  Is there
some other way to include external ledger files into org-babel?

This is in org version 8.2.6-14-g063c8b-elpa.

Thanks,

-- Adam

I would suggest you try specifying the full path to the ledger file,
i.e. one starting with / (assuming you're using Linux, say).  Babel
executes in another directory potentially and this could be the source
of the problem.

I've tried that, and that doesn't fix the problem.

I'm testing it now on another system, and this actually works (ledger.lgr
and the org file are in the same directory):

#+begin_src ledger :cmdline -f .ledger.lgr print
#+end_src

It seems like there's some issue with ledger not loading properly, and the
error appears to be eaten by org-babel.  Is there any way to debug what
org-babel is seeing here?

Also, I prefer using hledger over ledger. Is that a customizable option in
ob-ledger?

Thanks,

if ledger does not work, you can use sh.  i do.

Thanks everyone.  I never saw C-c C-v C-v before, so that pointed me in the
right direction.

Most of the issue was with my inexperience debugging elisp.  The messages
buffer pointed me in the right direction; ledger wasn't emitting any output
because was throwing warning messages.  I traced it down to ledger
complaining about a missing newline after the !include line inside the src
block.

And the !include'd file needs to have the full path, as expected.

Thanks again,

-- Adam
