I'm trying to implement an org-link :export function for the "yeetube" package that:
1. Starts with a [[yt-video:ID][Link Title]] link. 2. Exports an "https://youtube.com/..."; link in a backend-appropriate format. I looked at how, e.g., ol-man does this for inspiration and it specializes per-backend. I'd like to avoid that if possible. What I'd _like_ to do is to: 1. Transform my "yt-video" link into an "https" link. 2. Let the current backend decide how it wants to handle the transformed link. Currently I have: (defun org-export-link-delegate (backend info link &optional desc) (org-export-with-backend backend (car (org-element-parse-secondary-string (org-link-make-string link desc) '(link))) desc info)) Which I use as follows: (defun yeetube--org-export-link (path desc backend info) (pcase-let ((rx bos (let type (seq (not ":"))) ":" (let id (+ any)) eos) path) (pcase scheme ("yt-video" (org-export-link-delegate backend info (concat yeetube-video-url id) desc)) ("yt-playlist" (org-export-link-delegate backend info (concat yeetube-playlist-url id) desc)) ((error "unsupported yeetube link type %s" type))))) This seems to work, but I'm wondering if there's a better way and/or a good reason not to do it this way.
