Hi list, I have an org file that I am tangling into multiple files, and exporting to html. What I would like to do is to label each source block in the exported html with the filename used for tangling this specific block. I don't have a strong opinion about the actual appearance of the label (adding a comment at the top of the source block, hover in the code textarea, other?).
I couldn't find any option to do that, so I initially though of using `org-export-filter-src-block-functions' (following http://orgmode.org/manual/Advanced-configuration.html). I was not able to get the org-element object for the current block from the parameter received by the filter. It looks like the third parameter (`info') may have more information but I currently don't see how to get (1) the current source block, and (2) the tangling filename. I then tried to define a derived backend with custom handling of source blocks as described in the documentation. I currently have the following, where I try to get the tangle filename using `org-babel-get-src-block-info', and later insert it into the html content using an ugly regexp. (defun my-html-src-block (src-block contents info) "Transcode a SRC-BLOCK element from Org to HTML. CONTENTS is nil. INFO is a plist used as a communication channel." (let* ((lang (org-element-property :language src-block)) (src-info (org-babel-get-src-block-info t src-block)) (tang (cdr (assq :tangle (nth 2 src-info)))) (export-out (org-export-with-backend 'html src-block contents info)) ) (if (and (string= lang "lua") (and tang (> (length tang) 0))) (progn (let ((src-start-pat "\\(<pre class=\"src src-lua\" id=\"[^\"]+*\">\\)")) (replace-regexp-in-string src-start-pat (concat "\\1" "\n-- [" tang "]\n\n") export-out) ) ) export-out ) ) ) (org-export-define-derived-backend 'my-html 'html :translate-alist '((src-block . my-html-src-block))) Besides feeling wrong, this always gets the tangle name from the top level org option ("#+PROPERTY: tangle main-file" at the top of the file) instead of the one overridden by individual blocks "#+BEGIN_SRC :tangle other-file". Moreover the added comment is not syntax highlighted and this feels really wrong. Does anybody have any idea on how to achieve this? Thanks in advance. thibault
