Exporting drawers

Exporting drawers

[Uwe Jochum]

Hi all,

I found the idea of maintaining a contacts list in orgmode intriguing and 
went on to import my old data from kde-kontact into orgmode, using drawers 
as the appropriate tool to store the information, like so:

* Musterfrau, Gerda
%%(diary-anniversary 02 17 1959) Geburtstag: Gerda ist heute \%d Jahre 
alt!
  :ADRESSE:
  :Stadt:    Frankfurt am Main
  :Telephon:   069--7511--2660 (direkt)
  :Telephon:   069--7511--1666 (Sekretärin)
  :E-Post:     mailto:g.musterfrau@web.de
  :END:

* Mustermann, Fritz
  :ADRESSE:
  :Stadt:   Mannheim
  :Straße:  K4, 12
  :Telephon: 0621 / 882255XX
  :END:

In the head of the file I have the line

#+DRAWERS:   ADRESSE 

and in my .emacs there is an entry " '(org-export-
with-drawers t)" to make sure the drawers are included when I am exporting 
the file. But when exporting the file the drawer :ADRESSE: is NOT included; 
I only get the headlines or text outside the drawer.

I cannot figure out what's wrong with my setting. Could someone give me a 
hint?

System: Mandriva-Linux 2010.0, Emacs 23.1.1., orgmode 6.32b

Thanks a lot,

Uwe Jochum

I cannot reproduce this. I created an empty org file, copied your test
items, put #+DRAWERS: ADDRESSE on the head of the file, updated the
file local settings (C-c C-c) and exported to html. The ADRESSE
drawers are there.

Do you maybe have a line

#+OPTIONS: d:nil

in the buffer???

David,

thanks for testing! So it seems that my configuration is o.k., but somehow 
on my machine the export doesn't work properly. I'll switch to orgmode 
6.32trans and see if that helps.

Uwe

Carsten,

no, I haven't. This is what I have:

#+TITLE:     Kontakte
#+AUTHOR:    Uwe Jochum
#+EMAIL:     uwe.jochum@xxx.de
#+DATE:      2009-10-29 Do
#+DRAWERS:   ADRESSE
#+LANGUAGE:  de
#+OPTIONS:   toc:nil  f:t *:t <:t d:t

"d:t" is clearly unnecessary, because I have enabled the export of drawers 
globaly in my .emacs, but anyway...

And here comes something really strange:

David Maus said he copied my example in a fresh file and exported it, and he 
got a correct result. So I too copied my example and inserted it in an emty 
new file --- and it worked, but only once! I tried this now three times: 
Everytime the file is new, the export of drawers works (PDF, html); but 
after the first run every repeated export of drawers fails. And on the first 
run I do not get the nicely formatted drawer display David had (with 
linebreaks after every drawer-line), but a rather cluttered result without 
linebreaks.

If no-one else can reproduce this with orgmode 6.32b, I'll switch to orgmode 
6.32trans.

Schöne Grüße,

Uwe

Hi,



when I first export it to PDF, no drawers are exported.

To HTML => drawers present. OK.

Then export to PDF again gives me:



Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable alt!)
  eval(alt!)
  eval-last-sexp-1(nil)
  eval-last-sexp(nil)
  call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)
  recursive-edit()
  byte-code(.....)
  debug(error (wrong-number-of-arguments (lambda nil "Complete name at point and insert a link.\nNOTE: only the last word preceding point is taken into account for the\nsearch (and thus replaced by the result)!\nThe type of link depends on the setting of `org-bbdb-default-link-type'.\n\nTODO: select the record." (interactive "*P") (let* ... ... ... ...)) 1))
  org-bbdb/complete-name(nil)
  call-interactively(org-bbdb/complete-name nil nil)



Removing the line

   %%(diary-anniversary 02 17 1959) Geburtstag: Gerda ist heute \%d Jahre alt!

helps. I can export again.


In PDF, the drawers are still absent. They are not in the LaTeX sources
either.

Sebastian,

o.k., I removed all the anniversary-lines, and after that html-export 
worked, but the drawers are printed without linebreaks, as before. PDF-
export is still not working: no drawers at all. So I could reproduce all 
your (negative) results. Thanks!

Schne Grüße,

Uwe

I would be curious to know how you do your searches.

Hi Uwe,

there was indeed a bug in drawer export, which is now fixed, I hope.

Also, check out the variable org-export-format-drawer-function
