Can one tangle only the current blocks under header ?

Can one tangle only the current blocks under header ?

Hi all

can one tangle only the current blocks under header or  can you only tangle
the whole file?
the issue is again for dotfiles managed by org that these files are not
proper org babel languages and look like this:

#+BEGIN_SRC conf :mkdirp yes :tangle ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf
softvol-max=600
#+END_SRC

the manual (http://orgmode.org/manual/Extracting-source-code.html) only
shows how to tangle the whole file

any ideas?

thx!

If you read the help for org-babel-tangle:
With one universal prefix argument, only tangle the block at point.When two universal prefix arguments, only tangle blocks for thetangle file of the block at point.
So if you do c-u first before org-babel-tangle, it will only tangle the code block at point.I use this a lot so I have the following in my init file:
(defun org-babel-tangle-block()  (interactive)  (let ((current-prefix-arg '(4)))     (call-interactively 'org-babel-tangle)))
(eval-after-load "org"  '(progn     (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c b") 'org-babel-tangle-block)))
So I can just do C-c b and it will just tangle the code block at point.
And I agree with you I with the manual (http://orgmode.org/manual/Extracting-source-code.html) has this information.
Hope this helps,Joon

You can `:tangle no' on the source block to exclude it from tangling.

You can even tangle one source block to a different or as many files
as you like during tangling.

thx so much

Joon: thx this is great. one last question. suppose i have multiple code
blocks under  header like this:

**** main i3 conf
     :PROPERTIES:
     :ID:       f17b5518-2695-4484-a958-2fc7b8aa2479
     :tangle:   /home/zeltak/.i3/config
     :END:



is there a way to issue a tangle just for all below the header blocks?

best

Again if you read the help: 
    When two universal prefix arguments, only tangle blocks for the tangle file of the block at point.
So if you give two universal prefix arguments and issue org-babel-tangle while you are at a code block with the tangle file /home/zeltak/.i3/config, it will only tangle code blocks with that particular code block. I think that is what you want. I'm sure you can modify the code I showed you to implement this.
Another way to do this is just `org-narrow-to-subtree` to narrow down to that subtree and and then just tangle the whole thing.
