Q: add contents of a property to LaTeX export?

Q: add contents of a property to LaTeX export?

[Julius Dittmar]

Hi folks,

I would like the org export to add a line containing one property entry
(ID for example) to the LaTeX export for every heading.

Ideally I'd like this to be added to the org-latex-classes
configuration. I'd like to call a macro \mysection{..content of ID
property..}{..heading line content..} there (instead of
\section{..heading line content..}.

Alternatively something like \renewcommand{\ID}{...contents of ID
property...} immediately before or after the sectioning command would
work, too.

My elisp skills are still near to non-existent, so I would not even know
where to start looking for something like that.

Any pointers?

Thanks in advance,
Julius

I would do something like this in a block like this. This hook runs on a
copy of the buffer. You can change  (org-id-get-create) to org-entry-get if
you want.


* build
 :noexport:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(let ((org-export-before-processing-hook
       '((lambda (_backend)
  (org-map-entries (lambda ()
     (org-end-of-meta-data)
     (insert (format "\nID: %s\n" (org-id-get-create)))))))))

  (org-open-file (org-latex-export-to-pdf)))

#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
John
