Re: [O] [PATCH] Allow passing post-process to org-publish-org-to for use by org-export-to
Hello, Erik Hetzner e...@e6h.org writes: I have been looking at publishing to HTML using pandoc. Because pandoc requires post-processing to transform the org-mode markdown output to other formats, it is necessary to use the post-process parameter of org-export-to-file. I think this patch makes sense; let me know what you think. Thanks for your patch. Though, it is not necessary. `post-process' is meant for processing after an asynchronous export (e.g., prepare a buffer in the current process). You're looking after a filter.

See (info (org) Advanced configuration) for more information. Hi Nicholas, Thanks very much for your response (and ox.el)! I looked at filters, but concluded they were not appropriate, because pandoc operates on the file as a whole, and writes to a file, and can return binary content (for example, if it is generating PDFs). It seemed equivalent to the way that the latex exporter uses pdflatex to generate a PDF, and the latex exported uses a post-process function. I could be wrong, though. It would also be convenient to have access to the info plist; in fact, I was going to write another email about having access to the info plist in a post-process filter. Is there a way to define a filter that operates on the entire content, is guaranteed to run after everything else, and can handle binary content? Thanks. best, Erik -- Sent from my free software system http://fsf.org/.

Then you're correct: filters won't help. It seemed equivalent to the way that the latex exporter uses pdflatex to generate a PDF, and the latex exported uses a post-process function. Not really. If you look at `org-latex-publish-to-pdf' you will see that publishing is done differently: the binary file is generated, then published as an attachment. I could be wrong, though.

Is there a way to define a filter that operates on the entire content, is guaranteed to run after everything else, and can handle binary content? Thanks. Sort of. `org-export-filter-final-output-functions' will get you the final string, along with the info plist. You can use it to apply modifications and generate the binary file. The original output can then be discarded. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou

[O] [PATCH] Allow passing post-process to org-publish-org-to for use by org-export-to
Hi, I have been looking at publishing to HTML using pandoc. Because pandoc requires post-processing to transform the org-mode markdown output to other formats, it is necessary to use the post-process parameter of org-export-to-file. Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to pass post-process through to org-export-to-file via org-publish-org-to. The attached patch allows this.
