How do I create a Leo outline from within a Python program? I have a Python program where I want to export into a Leo outline format file.
All the snippets of code I’ve found assumes the code is running within Leo. I want to run outside LEO I tried this: from leo.core import leoGlobals as leo_g from leo.core import leoApp leo_g.app = leoApp.LeoApp() leo_c = leo_g.app.newCommander(‘test.leo’) But I got the exception NoneType object has no attribute ‘globalSettingsDict’ I also tried: from leo.core.loeGlobals import createScratchCommander c = createScratchCommander(‘test.leo’) I got the same error. I found the “mod_read_dir_outline.py” plugin but it seems to be written to work within Leo. I found a post about “web-to-outline script” (https://groups.google.com/g/leo-editor/c/CkS8MLRStsA/m/7xbIowG9BAAJ) but I could not find this script. I also found LeoBridge to interface with an existing instance of Leo but I just want to create an leo outline in another program and then manually open the file with Leo. I don't want to risk corrupting an existing leo file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
