Since falling in love with Org projects, I've run into one snag that I
don't know how to handle with the current features. I want to be able to
run org-export-project ("\C-c\C-ep") from any file in a directory or
sub-directory. Even if that file is not actually exported. In fact, I'd
like to be able to export from a shell.
For example, assume I have a directory "myproject" with sub-directories
"source", "output", and "tools". The files in "source" are exported to
"output". The files in "tools" and any other files in "myproject" don't
get exported.
Given the above example, I want to be able to run org-export-project
from any file, shell buffer, dired buffer, or whatever, that is in
"myproject"s directory subtree.
New project type definition:
'("myproject-root"
;; While :publishing-directory is must be present to make
;; org-mode work:
;; `:base-directory'
;; `:recursive'
;; `:catch-all-project'
;; are the only ones used. :catch-all-project is a boolean.
;; When non-nil it will tell org-mode to use files in this
;; subtree to trigger exporting of a parent project
:base-directory "~/myproject"
:catch-all-project t
:publishing-directory "~/myproject"
:recursive t
)
Root project definition:
'("myproject" (:components "myproject-source" "myproject-root"))
The only thing that myproject-root does is enable org-mode to identify
that a file is in the myproject meta-project.
Thoughts?
