Is there a good way to use org as blog system?

Is there a good way to use org as blog system?

[Water Lin]

I want to mantain a local static html blog system on my local
computer. I think org is good enough to organise the stuff.

Is there any special function for me to use org as blog system?

I need a reference to start......

Thanks

For "static html" using the built in publishing features of Org-mode is
probably sufficient (see [1]).  If you want to get more sophisticated
(and complicated) you could also take a look at blorg [2] or blorgit
[3].

        With the following Ikiwiki plugin, I have been using org as my
 Ikiwiki input mechanism (so I write all my blog posts as org-mode
 files, and Ikiwiki transforms tehm into html and rss.

I'm not sure what you mean here. Could you please clarify how Worg would
help one set up local, static html blog?

Perhaps you mean org-publish? Worg is just a website generated from a
set of org files edited by org users.

Yes, that's what I was hinting at.  Referred to worg as an example of
static HTML generated from org files.  Which uses org-publish.

Re: Re: Is there a good way to use org as blog system?

org offers multiple ways of solving problems.  worg, blorg, and
Manoj's perl script, and I am sure there will be others.  I am  now
thinking on the following idea:

Using the new features (babel) added in the fresh release of org, it
is indeed possible to provide a minor mode in gnowsys-mode (see the
other thread posted on 30th October) to publish the notes with
relations and attributes (tagging, categorizing) etc.  in Plone
(gnowsys currently uses Zope/Plone for webservices).

It is high time that we should work on a emacs-engine (as a
webservice) that performs elisp functions so that several of the org
functions can be used independently.  This will proliferate org's use
beyond imagination.

Doesn't such an emacs-engine already exist?  Couldn't we use emacs in
batchmode to achieve this?  Any guidance is welcome.

I started down this path some months ago and generated the following as
a sort of tentative exploration

http://github.com/eschulte/simple-server

which makes use of

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsEchoServer

and httpd.el at http://emarsden.chez.com/downloads/

It is certainly possible to go further...

it is currently possible to hand single elisp statements to Emacs in
batch mode, however startup time (starting Emacs, loading all elisp
files, and implementing any .emacs customization) is an issue.  To the
best of my knowledge there is nothing like an elisp REPL currently
implemented, although it would be possible and there has been scattered
discussion on this topic

Hi,

You might be interested in Jekkyl, a Ruby program that is a  blog-aware,
static  web sites generator. It basically generates HTML out of tex,haml,
textile files.

check it out: http://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/
Example sites: http://wiki.github.com/mojombo/jekyll/sites

So what does it have to do with Org? well, some guy developed a nice way of
using the power of Jekky with Org. It uses org as a backed to generate the
html, he prepoceses it and then generates the site using Jekyll.

You might want to check it out:

http://github.com/Chrononaut/happyblogger

I am not using it myself right now,  but I plan to.  One of the good things
is that you can use the color-theme when exporting to html and put the code
sampel just like you see it in your Emacs.

I hope it helps.

Thanks Eric.  We will try to use them and get back to you.

yes, using batchmode will have high latency.  I will give a serious
attempt to further this line of work.  It is useful for us.

Thanks for this great plugin. I had a couple of problems with UTF8 
encodings not working. I have patched the plugin to fix this (code 
below). Warning I am not a Perl programmer, don't blame me if the patch

This looks like it could be really good, but I can't access the
happyblogger repository nor any of Chrononaut's other git repo's on
github.  Has the account been deleted or is github just down again?

I'm looking for an org-mode based static blogging solution that's more
robust than blorg, so I'm hoping this is available somewhere.

Writing an online journal from Org mode is on my list of things to do,
but I haven't got around to investigating ‘blorg’. What about it is
insufficiently robust?

        Thanks for the patch. I have applied it, with one minor tweak: I
 used
  binmode (OUTPUT, ":encoding(utf8)");
 for the output streams, so that the perl strings are actually checked
 for correct encoding.

        I'll send the (rebased) branch upstream, and see if it sticks
 this time (since emacs 23 has entered Debian)

The primary problems I have experienced are that it is has some rather
serious problems unresolved problems with html export, specifically
link generation.  Everything seems ok with org-mode links rendered
correctly as HTML, but then non-deterministically an export from what
as far as I can tell is the same state as before results in broken
links with them rendered in the html org-mode style, i.e.
[[foo][http://foobar.com/]].

It is also currently without a maintainer as Bastien believes it needs
a complete rewrite to use org-publish... IIRC.

I did spend a short while trying to debug the link generation issue,
but never got to the bottom of it, as I'm largely unfamiliar with
elisp.

Do you or does anyone else know if there is a clone of this repo anywhere?

Not exactly, but http://github.com/bmaland/chrononaut.github.com/ is a 
clone of his website. At first glance this should be enough to get started.

Re: Is there a good way to use org as blog system?

[Eric Schulte]

Would someone be willing to generate a worg page to address using org as
blogging system?

This questions seems to be appear on list every month or two, and there
have been a wealth of interesting tools and solutions proposed.  It
would be great to have them collected with links and feedback (maybe
pointers to instance of their use) on a single worg page rather than
scattered through the mailing list archives.

I know, I know, I should just do this my-self rather than asking someone
else to do it for me, but I haven't been following the recent rounds of
these discussions and feel like I'm out of this particular loop...

Just a thought, Thanks -- Eric

GNOWSYS emacs web services (was: Re: Is there a good way to use org as blog system?)

[Sandro Giessl]

Hi Nagarjuna,

I happily discovered that a student was assigned to this project [1] in
this year's GSoC:

  GNOWSYS emacs web services for The GNU Project

  Abstract:   Idea is to develop an emacs like editor with the org
  specific semantics for the purpose of note taking & authoring. Applying
  the rules of Org notations, it can also be extended to incorporate
  gnowsys-mode as it currently works in emacs. Export like features of
  Org-mode will be made possible in this editor by communicating through
  local emacs server. All the gnowsys-mode specific commands will pass on
  the request to the GNOWSYS server via local emacs daemon.

So this sounds like it's going to be generic enough to be useful for
orgmode as well.  I imagine smartphone+orgmode users will profit from
this, because the web browser would be a nice interface in addition to
using emacs' gui/terminal interface.

Enough of showing my appreciation, and good luck to Divya S (the
student who's in charge)!

Regards,
Sandro

Thanks for your interest and appreciation!

Yes, indeed.  It is going to be generic and initially we would want
the orgmode macros to work. Since gnowsys-mode is developed on top of
orgmode, gnowsys specific macros would work as well.  We indent to use
it mainly for rendering org buffer into html.  Ultimate objective is
to save web documents on the server side in pure text, not even html.

We will update this list when we begin to get some results.  The
student just started her work recently.  If you or any others on this
list would like to contribute in terms of ideas, that will be great.
