asynchronous exporter and babel confirmation

asynchronous exporter and babel confirmation

[Alan Schmitt]

Hello,

Is the asynchronous exporter supposed to work when a request to evaluate
a code block needs to be answered? I was wondering why the exporter was
getting stuck, and found a buffer where the question was asked but I had
no way to answer it.

Thanks,

Alan

Well, no, but its somewhat difficult to prevent it. Besides security
considerations, even if we set `org-confirm-babel-evaluate' to nil
during an asynchronous export, this won't handle the case of the user
explicitly uses a :query keyword in a source block header.

A very ugly hack would be to use:

 (defalias 'yes-or-no-p 'ignore)


Eric, what do you think?

Right.

Ugh.  I hope this won't be necessary.

I've recently refactored the evaluation check so it determines first whether the
code-block should be run and only in the affirmative checks if it should query
the user.  So it should be much easier now to have another dynamic binding for
preventing the question _and_ not run the block (as if the user had answered
"no", which is the only sensible choice when skipping the query).  It already
skips the query when the cached result is not stale (since it doesn't actually
run any code in this case).

I hope too.

From the export framework POV, this variable should be set to an
appropriate value (i.e. so no question is asked) from
`org-export-async-start'.

I can take care of it once the new variable is defined (maybe in
ob-exp.el?).

Hi Nicolas,

I'm still waiting for feedback from Karl Voit over in the other thread,
but here's the amended patch for you to review:

Subject: [PATCH] ob-core: do not ask for confirmation if cached result is
 current
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel-confirm-evaluate): Refactor this internal
  function.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--suppress-confirm-evaluate-answer-no):
  Dynamically scoped variable, if bound non-nil the confirmation
  dialog will not be initiated and it is assumed the user answered
  with "no".
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--check-confirm-evaluate): New macro to
  ensure that the initial let-bindings for `org-babel--check-evaluate´
  and `org-babel--confirm-evaluate´ are consistent.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--check-evaluate): First part of
  `org-babel-confirm-evaluate´, check whether this source block
  evaluation is enabled.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--confirm-evaluate): Second part of
  `org-babel-confirm-evaluate´, let the user confirm evaluation.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel-execute-src-block): Do not ask for
  confirmation if the cached result is current.

  The call to `org-babel--check-evaluate´ will indicate if the block
  should be evaluated.  If yes, determine whether the cached result
  block is current (since `org-babel-process-params´ might trigger
  expensive operations this has to be deferred).  If `cache-current-p´
  is t, evaluate the source block without asking.  In case the cache
  is current the evaluation will not actually do anything but return
  the cached value, so this is safe.  Otherwise ask permission from
  the user by calling `org-babel--confirm-evaluate´ and act depending
  on the answer.

  The new variable `org-babel--suppress-confirm-evaluate-answer-no´
  can be bound to suppress the user interaction as is needed for async
  export, as discussed in

Thanks. I haven't much to say wrt to the internals since the only thing
needed to make use of this patch is to set
`org-babel--suppress-confirm-evaluate-answer-no' to t from
`org-export-async-start'. I would suggest a shorter variable name,
though, as: °org-babel--no-confirm-force-no'. But that doesn't really
matter.

I'll just focus on cosmetics.

You should mention explicitly that you removed this function. This is
not a refactoring.

You should leave 3 semicolons. This is standard elisp library starter.

I've dropped the "suppress-" as it is redundant, but kept the
"confirm-evaluate".

That was an accident.

I wouldn't, it reverses the logic of that function.  Most of the code
was copied from the original function and I had originally intended to
adhere closely to that so Eric has an easier time to tell whether this
is good or not.  Anyway, I've had a go at this, not sure if it is much
better than the original.  The logic in these functions is a bit
convoluted, after all.

  ensure that the initial let-bindings for `org-babel--check-evaluate´
  and `org-babel--confirm-evaluate´ are consistent.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--check-evaluate): First part of the
  original `org-babel-confirm-evaluate´, check whether this source
  block evaluation is enabled.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--confirm-evaluate-answer-no): Dynamically
  scoped variable, if bound non-nil the confirmation dialog will not
  be initiated denial of evaluation is assumed.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel--confirm-evaluate): Second part of the
  original `org-babel-confirm-evaluate´, check if the user needs to be
  queried. If not, affirm evaluation, else check if evaluation should
  be auto-denied and lastly ask the user.
* lisp/ob-core.el (org-babel-execute-src-block): Do not ask for
  confirmation if the cached result is current.

  The call to `org-babel--check-evaluate´ will indicate if the block
  should be evaluated.  If yes, determine whether the cached result
  block is current (since `org-babel-process-params´ might trigger
  expensive operations this has to be deferred).  If `cache-current-p´
  is t, evaluate the source block without asking.  In case the cache
  is current the evaluation will not actually do anything but return
  the cached value, so this is safe.  Otherwise ask permission from
  the user by calling `org-babel--confirm-evaluate´ and act depending
  on the answer.

  The new variable `org-babel--confirm-evaluate-answer-no´ can be
  bound to suppress the user interaction as is needed for async
  export, as discussed in

Yes of course, thanks for catching that.  This also means that the
testsuite isn't picking upon that.

> I will wait for this patch to be committed.

When and if Eric chimes in and Karl confirms that his earlier problem
with this change is solved.

Done in commit 4f7d514f13.  The double hyphens have been omitted based
on a discussion with Eric Schulte.

This sounds reasonable.
