export of .org file from within a different .org file

export of .org file from within a different .org file

Hi

I have an org file (report.org) which creates a report.

Now I want to do a few things with the resulting report, before I create
it to run a simulation, and afterwards copy it into a directory with a
name linked to some parameter of the simulation. I am now using a
seperate .org file (sim.org) which essentially looks as follow:

- ----------------------
* Simulate
#+begin_src R
  ...
#+end_src

* Create Report
#+begin_src sh :exports results
  emacs --batch --visit=rep.sim.org
- --execute='(org-export-as-html-and-open nil)'
#+end_src

* Do some copying
#+begin_src sh
  cp rep.sim.html DifferentName.html
  ...
#+end_src
- ----------------------

As you can see, I am using sh to do a task in emacs - which is quite
ridiculous, but I don't know how to do it in elisp. So:

how can I translate
emacs --batch --visit=rep.sim.org
- --execute='(org-export-as-html-and-open nil)'

into elisp?
The (org-export-as-html-and-open nil) is clear - but the visit= ??

Thanks,

Rainer

Found the solution:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (switch-to-buffer (find-file-noselect "report.org"))
  (org-export-as-html-and-open nil)
#+end_src

Cheers,

Could be done better maybe, but this works:

(let ((buf (find-file-noselect "~/path/to/file.org")))
  (with-current-buffer buf
    (org-export-as-html-and-open nil)
    (kill-buffer buf)))

Thanks - the kill-buffer is definitely a good idea
