Org-icalendar-export-to-ics doesn't, but works from the assumption that you're in a buffer visiting a file. So your elisp function might perhaps first copy the src block into a buffer, unescape the escaped lines, and save the file somewhere, before calling org-icalendar-export-to-ics from that buffer. Is that what you're doing?
Thank you Christian! As usual your feedback helped me understand what I wanted to do. In short, I don't think it's worth the effort, there's no function in icalendar.el like `(org-icalendar-export-string-to-ics SRC_STR DST_STR)`. I just wanted to write in a tutorial the following:
#+BEGIN_SRC org ,* Meeting with friends :PROPERTIES: :LOCATION: At Stacy's :DESCRIPTION: Be on time :END: <2025-05-28 Wed 20:00-22:00> #+END_SRC Here is the result: #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE BEGIN:VCALENDAR VERSION:2.0 X-WR-CALNAME:orgmode_tutorial PRODID:-//jman//Emacs with Org mode//EN X-WR-TIMEZONE:CEST X-WR-CALDESC:Some Orgmode file CALSCALE:GREGORIAN BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250616T204032Z UID:TS1-5c65d2f4-ab93-4256-8981-f6d5548772e5 DTSTART:20250528T200000 DTEND:20250528T220000 SUMMARY:Meeting with friends LOCATION:At Stacy's DESCRIPTION:Be on time CATEGORIES:orgmode_tutorial END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR #+END_EXAMPLE Since it's just a one-time thing, I'll just copy&paste the generated .ics file content. Thanks again!
