Re: [O] Export each top level heading to separate file

2014-01-05 Thread John Kitchin
Try this:


(org-map-entries
 (lambda ()
   (let ((level (nth 1 (org-heading-components)))
 (title (nth 4 (org-heading-components
 (if (= level 1)
 (org-entry-put (point) :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: title
 nil nil)

It seems to do what you want.

hmm.. I don't know if it was a bug, I ran the code on my system before
sending it, and it worked for me ;) I am glad you figured it out on your
system.

you could avoid the double if statements like this:

(defun my-exp-headings-to-markdown ()
  Export each top-level heading to markdown.
  (interactive)
  (org-map-entries
   (lambda ()
 (let ((level (nth 1 (org-heading-components)))

   (when (= level 1)
 (org-entry-put (point) EXPORT_FILE_NAME title)
 (org-md-export-to-markdown nil 1 nil)
   nil nil))


The when macro is like an if macro, with no else body.

   :EXPORT_OPTIONS: num:nil toc:nil
   :END:

 Thanks, gets me half the way there. Setting properties as you
 described and exporting each sub-tree works properly. Now how can I do
 this for all the top-level headings in a file?

Sorry, that's beyond my pay grade :-). I would also be interested in
knowing the answer.

Cheers,
Alan

 If I understood your question properly.
