Hi list,

I have a simple babel file with an Emacs Lisp code block, that looks like
this:

peepopen-config.org:


* Load it
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs_lisp
  (add-to-list 'load-path (concat fullofcaffeine-vendor-dir "/peepopen"))
  (require 'peepopen)
  (textmate-mode)
#+END_SRC

(provide 'peepopen-config)


I'm trying to tangle it with (org-babel-tangle-file "peepopen-config.org"),
but I get the following in the "Messages" buffer:

Tangled 0 code blocks from peepopen-config.org


I'm confused, since the file *does* contain a code block. Am I doing
something wrong?

Thanks in advance,

- Marcelo.

Not really, but you do need to tell Babel you want to tangle this code
block.  See the header argument :tangle, which by default is set to
`no'.  If you add :tangle yes to the code block header, then it should
do what you want.

Hi Thomas,

Stupid me. There was a syntax error in the code block -- "emacs_lisp"
instead of "emacs-lisp".

Thank you for taking your time to answer it, though!

Oh, actually that wasn't the issue.

org-babel-load-file seems to force tangling the file to an .el.
org-babel-tangle-file doesn't. Is there a way to force the output to the
.el file without using the parameter in the code block itself?

Thanks!

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how org-babel-tangle-file works. Isn't it
supposed to create a correspondent .el file for the tangled org file?

Yes, there is.

(org-babel-tangle-file FILE &optional TARGET-FILE LANG)

You should be able set TARGET-FILE with a buffer-wide header argument,
like this:

#+PROPERTY: tangle force-output-to-the.el

Hi Thomas. Thanks again for the reply.

I still don't understand why the TARGET_FILE argument is optional. I would
expect it to create a file of the same name of the org file that is
tangled. Take this code:

(org-babel-tangle-file "~/.emacs.d/config/peepopen-config.org")

Contents:

* Load it
> #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
>   (add-to-list 'load-path (concat fullofcaffeine-vendor-dir "/peepopen"))
>   (require 'peepopen)
>   (textmate-mode)
> (provide 'peepopenconfig)
> #+END_SRC


When I evaluate the (org-babel-tangle-file...) line, I get the following:

Tangled 0 code blocks from peepopen-config.org


I would expect it to tangle 1 block, and create a peepopen-config.el (no
need to define a TARGET_FILE string).

Two questions:

1) Not sure why it's not tangling the BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp block
2) Am I wrong about the .el file creation assumption ?

Cheers!

- Marcelo.

Here is the docstring:

  (org-babel-tangle-file FILE &optional TARGET-FILE LANG)

  Extract the bodies of source code blocks in FILE.
  Source code blocks are extracted with `org-babel-tangle'.
  Optional argument TARGET-FILE can be used to specify a default
  export file for all source blocks.  Optional argument LANG can be
  used to limit the exported source code blocks by language.

I suppose it is optional so you don't have to specify a default export
file for all source blocks.  What if you want to tangle two or more
files from the same Org buffer?

Well, by default :tangle no, so unless you've changed this somewhere I
think Babel will defer to the default value.

Tom
