Subject: How to programmatically use/edit data provided on capture
Date: Sun, 03 Aug 2014 03:03:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <53DD8A4E.5090504@neutrico-themes.pl> (raw)
Hi all!
I got capture template with prompts to collect some properties:
#+BEGIN_SRC
* TODO %\1 / Some task description
:PROPERTIES:
:NAME: %^{NAME}
:END:
#+END_SRC
My question is: How to get information on user input data to transform
this data before capture finalize.
For example: I got variable NAME and would like to use function like
(s-dashed-words string) from s.el to make sure that my NAME is valid and
converted to dashed syntax.
Let's say that my input is: New random project
I would like to have:
#+begin_src
* TODO new-random-project / Some task description
:PROPERTIES:
:NAME: "New random project"
:END:
#+end_src
While currently I got:
#+begin_src
* TODO New random project / Some task description
:PROPERTIES:
:NAME: "New random project"
:END:
#+end_src
I have been trying:
#+BEGIN_SRC
* TODO %(custom-dashify-function %\1) / Some task description
:PROPERTIES:
:NAME: %^{NAME}
:END:
#+END_SRC
or
#+BEGIN_SRC
* TODO %(custom-dashify-function %\\1) / Some task description
:PROPERTIES:
:NAME: %^{NAME}
:END:
#+END_SRC
But apparently function is executed before %\1 is replaced by my data
and it dodesn't work.
Could someone help me to write function that would get data I provided
for property NAME, convert using s-dashed-words and return to template
before finalize?
Marcin
