Subject: Export Org files to TWiki format
Date: Thu, 07 May 2009 21:05:05 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bycfxfgme8e.fsf@muchbodyking-lm.corp.yahoo.com> (raw)
Hi,
Recently I wrote an XSL stylesheet that converts DocBook documents to
TWiki (http://www.twiki.org/) format, and it can be used to convert Org
files to TWiki format using DocBook exporter as a bridge. I have used
it to generate some of my recent TWiki documents at work from Org mode
files, and it worked pretty well. Now Org-mode can be used as a TWiki
editor.
If you are interested, you can get the stylesheet from
http://docbook2twiki.googlecode.com
The following Elisp function can be used to export Org file to TWiki
using this stylesheet (the only external tool that you need is
``xsltproc''):
(defun org-export-as-twiki ()
"Export Org file to TWiki."
(interactive)
(message "Exporting to TWiki...")
(let* ((wconfig (current-window-configuration))
(docbook-buf (org-export-as-docbook))
(filename (buffer-file-name docbook-buf))
(base (file-name-sans-extension filename))
(twiki-file (concat base ".twiki")))
(and (file-exists-p twiki-file) (delete-file twiki-file))
(message "Processing DocBook XML file...")
(shell-command
(format "xsltproc --output %s /Users/bcui/docbook2twiki/docbook2twiki.xsl %s"
twiki-file (shell-quote-argument filename)))
(message "Processing DocBook file...done")
(if (not (file-exists-p twiki-file))
(error "TWiki file was not produced")
(set-window-configuration wconfig)
(message "Exporting to TWiki...done")
twiki-file)))
Originally I started with writing Org-to-TWiki exporter in Elisp, but
realized that I had to duplicate a lot of code from the DocBook exporter
after 99% of the work was done. Writing the stylesheet is little harder
for me, but it proves that DocBook exporter can be helpful in some
case. ;-)
Please let me know if you have any comments.
Thanks,
Baoqiu
