Hi All,
When setting the 'DIR' property for attachments for a whole file with
=#+PROPERTY: DIR ...=, 'org-lint' will issue a deprecation warning and
recommend the use "header-args" instead. Of course, 'org-lint' means
here babel blocks, but as far as I understand, setting the 'DIR'
property for attachments for the whole file this way is a legitimate use
case, and is the only way to do so for org-attach. If this is the case,
the warning issued by 'org-lint' might be misleading. I'm admittedly
not well acquainted with 'org-lint', but thought it worth to bring the
case to your attention, for your consideration.
To generate such a warning, starting with =emacs -Q=, set load-path to
get the proper version of Org (as your case may be):
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20200608")
#+end_src
Then visit an Org file with following contents:
#+begin_src org
,#+property: DIR attachments
,* entry1
,* entry2
#+end_src
'org-lint' will return:
#+begin_example
1 low Deprecated syntax for "DIR". Use header-args instead
#+end_example
This was tested with "Org mode version 9.3.7 (9.3.7-2-g706970-elpaplus @
/home/gustavo/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20200608/)" and "GNU Emacs
27.0.91 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.30, cairo
version 1.15.10) of 2020-05-20".
Best,
Gustavo.
