Best way to generate textile from orgmode ?

[Marc-Oliver Ihm]

Hello list,

i would like to convert orgmode to textile (which is used within confluence wiki).

What is the best way to do this ?

New exporter already or external programs ?

Thanx and best regards,
Marc

The best way would be to write a textile exporter.

For this you need to define a new derived exporter from 'ascii.

Get a fresh clone of Org and see how this is done in ox-md.el,
which create a MarkDown exporter by deriving it from the ascii
one.

Also note there is contrib/lisp/ox-confluence.el by Sébastien
Delafond which can be used for Confluence Wiki.

Hope that helps,

I agree that this would be for the benefit of everyone. But you could
also just export to md and use pandoc to convert to textile.

Actually ox-md derives from ox-html.  It was not clear to me why that is
the case though.  I would have thought ox-ascii is the obvious choice.
Only reason I could think of was referencing/linking is more natural
with ox-html.

Simple. Markdown syntax supports raw HTML. So anything not supported by
Markdown can be written as HTML.

Simple indeed!  I did not know that bit of information.

I was hoping that someone's gonna beat me to it. but hey, it's much
fun to write elisp than textile (it's redmine in my case ;-p).

https://github.com/yashi/org-textile

Only some basic formats are supported right now, but quite useful for
me, at least.  Hope it is as well for you.

It's also in melpa, thanks to @purcell.

Best,
