org-babel: insert named source block

org-babel: insert named source block

[Deepak Cherian]

Has anyone here managed to configure ivy or helm to show a list of named 
source blocks that org knows about?

I am imagining this workflow:
1. M-x org-babel-insert-named-source-block (imaginary function)
2. List of named source blocks pops up
3. Hit enter and "#+call: name-of-source-block()" is inserted at point.

Thanks,

Deepak

org has its own function for listing  named src-blocks.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (defun my-insert-named-src-block
      ( &optional template )
    (interactive)
    (let ((template (or template "#+call: %s()\n"))
	  (src-block
	   (completing-read "Enter src block name[or TAB or ENTER]: " (org-babel-src-block-names))))
      (unless (string-equal "" src-block)
	(insert (format template src-block)))))
#+END_SRC

M-x my-insert-named-src-block TAB <click on name>

HTH,

Thanks. That works well, but only shows named source blocks in the 
particular file.

Is there a way to make it show library of babel blocks too?

Sure. `org-babel-library-of-babel' is an association list whose keys are the names.  Add those to the collection arg of `completing-read'.
