Export from org-mode to latex from the commandline

Export from org-mode to latex from the commandline

When you build the documentation from the org-mode git repository,
something is calling emacs to build the documents in the background, but
what? Where can I find that command please, because I want to try and
use it to export org-mode to latex and then build a pdf file in the
background, all from the commandline.

Seeing the thread 'RE: Unable to get current or via use-package',
Malcolm Cook suggests to use 'emacs -Q -batch -eval "(progn (require
'package) (package-initialize) (package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'org))"'.

Could this be customised to export from org-mode to latex, and then
subsequently I build the pdf file from the already converted latex using
my program 'pdfbuild'?

Thanks
    Sharon.

I'm not sure how helpful this is, but I have a small "project" that I
include with other projects that use git for version control.  This
contains a shell script (used as a git-post-commit hook, in my case)
as well as an elisp script called under --batch mode. Together, these
export README.org into README.{md, pdf, txt} each time I check in a
give project that uses them.  I suspect these might not be too
difficult to adapt to your use-case.
