cannot batch export agenda

cannot batch export agenda

[Rainer Stengele]

Hi!

Trying to export an agenda view by command line I get this error:


No buffer named *Org Agenda*


How can I track the reason on the comand line?
I use sticky agenda views.


The command is here:
emacs -batch -l ~/.emacs -eval '(org-batch-agenda "01")'


The agenda view config looks like this:

	("01" "agenda - prio A,B todos - sorted prio up - today"  ;;
	 (

	  ;; show ONGOING todos first, but only if unscheduled, skip if scheduled
	  (tags-todo "ONGOING"
		     ((org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'scheduled))
		      (org-agenda-overriding-header "ONGOING todos: ")))
	  (agenda "todays agenda"
		  (
		   (org-agenda-span 'day)
		   (org-agenda-start-with-log-mode t)
		   (org-agenda-start-with-clockreport-mode t)

		   (org-agenda-overriding-header "Today's Agenda")))

	  (alltodo "todos Prio A+B - skip ONGOING todos"
		   (
		    (org-agenda-skip-function (lambda nil
						(or (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote notregexp) "\\=.*\\[#A\\|#B\\]")
						    (org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'regexp ":ONGOING:")
						    (org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'scheduled 'deadline ))))
		    (org-agenda-overriding-header "All todos prio A+B - skip ONGOING todos: ")
		    )))
	 ((org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(time-up priority-down todo-state-up))))todo-state-up))))


Thanks, Rainer

I found this:

(setq org-agenda-sticky nil)

to be working, which might indicate a bug in the batch export when using sticky agenda views.

So this does what I want:
emacs -batch -l ~/.emacs -eval ' (progn (setq org-agenda-sticky nil)(org-batch-agenda "0w"))'

Indeed!  `org-batch-agenda' uses `org-agenda-buffer-name' which only
make sense when `org-agenda-sticky' is nil.  This should be fixed now,
thanks for reporting this.
