Hello,
It is possible to run a function at the end of capture? I would like to
call org-board-archive (that downloads a web page according to some
properties) before finishing the capture?
Thanks,
Alan

There are three hooks that are run from org-capture-finalize:
- org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook
- org-capture-before-finalize-hook
- org-capture-after-finalize-hook
Check their documentation for when they are run and what the context is.
One of them should be good enough for what you want to do.

Alan: once you have your org-board and capture setting finalized , i would
be very interested to get more details on your setup and work flow, this
looks really interesting!
thx

Thanks, this was most helpful. org-capture-prepare-finalize-hook worked
great.

Here is how I did it:
- on Firefox side, I installed Org-capture for Firefox
http://chadok.info/firefox-org-capture/. Alternatively, you can do it
manually by following http://weblog.zamazal.org/org-mode-firefox/ (in
the “The advanced way” section)
- I "(require 'org-protocol)" and have installed the "org-board"
package.
- I setup a capture template like this:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq as/org-board-capture-file "my-org-board.org")
(setq org-capture-templates
`(...
("c" "capture through org protocol" entry
(file+headline ,as/org-board-capture-file "Unsorted")
"* %?%:description\n:PROPERTIES:\n:URL: %:link\n:END:\n\n Added %U")
...))
#+end_src
- I added a hook to org-capture-after-finalize-hook
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun as/do-org-board-dl-hook ()
(when (equal (buffer-name) (concat "CAPTURE-" as/org-board-capture-file))
(org-board-archive)))
(add-hook 'org-capture-before-finalize-hook 'as/do-org-board-dl-hook)
#+end_src
(Note: I mistakenly said that the "prepare" hook worked, but that would
download the file even when cancelling, which was wrong)
I think this is it.
Best,
Alan

Make up your mind, will you? :-)

As you can guess, I was testing as I was editing the message. As always,
the code is the truth™.
For the record, here is what I discovered:
- the prepare hook is run even when cancelling
- the before hook is run with the buffer widened, but the point is still
in the same position as when confirming pointer
- when the after hook is run, I did not get access to the captured data
(I may have done it wrong, but since the before hook worked, I did not
look further)
Best,
Alan
