Re: [O] Using Pandoc for export to EPub and Mediawiki Re: Bug: Status of the org-mediawiki.el [7.8.11]

2013-01-07 Thread Christopher Witte
For a quick work around, Pandoc can read in HTML, so perhaps you can export
org to HTML and then process it with Pandoc.
You can even use the following script so you can pipe it from the command
line.

#!/usr/bin/emacs --script
;read stdin into a temp buffer
;go into org-mode
;output the buffer as a string and pipe to stdout
(with-temp-buffer
  (progn
(condition-case nil
(let (line)
  (while (setq line (read-from-minibuffer ))
(insert line)
(insert \n)))
  (error nil))
(org-mode)
(princ (org-export-as-html nil nil nil 'string))
))

 Yes.  If you can motivate someone either from this list or from Pandoc
 community to write an Org mode reader, that'd be nice.  Even when we
 finally have a mediawiki exporter.

 May question: Is the support for Mediawiki-export abandoned?
 
 For now, yes.  
 
 But I think it would be a nice format to export to.

Just one question: does this HAVE to be implemented in org-mode/elisp
itself? I just stumbled on Pandoc
http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/README.html which can export from
several markup-languages to for instance MediaWiki (what I think is
weird is that it accepts org-mode as an output, but not as an input). So
one only has to write  an org-reader and get the project to accept it
and then there would be a number of output-formats (including ePub which
would be VERY cool) available for free (some duplicate existing formats).

I know that the only part is the hard thing. But there seems to be
somebody working on this already https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/476

If nobody is actively working on these export filters (Mediawiki) then
maybe outsourcing this conversion to pandoc and only integrating the
call into the export menu would be an interesting way to go

Bernhard

 
 If yes: I'd suggest to remove the reference to it from
 http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/
 
 Done, thanks!
