Currently I maintain a datetree journal capture using a template so
,----
| ("j" "journal" entry (file+datetree "journal.org")
| "* %?\n\t:PROPERTIES:\n\t:DateCreated: %T\n\t:Link: %a\n\t:END:\n")
`----
I also use j rockways' eproject set up that allows a hook to be run when
a file is opened inside a "project". e.g
,----
| (add-hook 'web-project-file-visit-hook '(lambda ()
| (ignore-errors
| (message "Web Project : %s" eproject-root)
| )))
`----
where "web-project" is created this:-
,----
| (define-project-type web (generic)
| (look-for "plan.org")
| :relevant-files ("\\.php$" "\\.js$" "\\.org$" "\\.sql$" "\\.css$" "authinfo" "vhost"))
`----
So whenever I open a file in a directory hierarchy which contains a
plan.org matching those types then my web-project-file-visit-hook is run.
What is the best emacs/elisp approach to setting a capture file
destination specific to a particular project? THe main point being that
the default capture template above should only be replaced if I am
actually in a "project" : any capture done in a file NOT contained
within a project should default to the capture template above. Is it
someting to do with buffer-locals perhaps or is there a
better/alternative way? e.g Perhaps "journal.org" becomes a variable and
this is overwritten (or whatever the elisp jargon is) in the project
hook as a buffer local?
Hope was clear!
regards
r.

Have a look at https://github.com/thisirs/org-context : Context agenda and
capture for Org-mode
It dynamically adds templates depending on the buffer you are currently
editing. New templates are available with the key "c" or merged if there is
no conflict with existing ones.
Hope this helps,
Sylvain.

I *love* it! This would be a great addition to contrib/lisp/ --
doors are open, just ring the bell.
One possible enhancement: allow using only the capture/agenda
template instead of the full template in `org-context-capture-alist'
and `org-context-agenda-alist'.
For example, it would be easy to read/write
(setq org-context-capture-alist
'(("*el" . ("a" "b"))
("*org" . ("c" "d"))))
`a' and `b' being templates (triggered in *el files) already
defined in `org-capture-templates'.
I guess this would speed up adoption of org-context... but again,
thanks for this!

Of course, this should read:

Good idea! Adding it to my todo list with org-context ;-)
If you think this addon deserves to be added to the contrib directory, feel
free to add it!

Hi,
I'm not sure if the error (?!) is mine or on your side - possibly error
is the wrong word. See this img here
http://i.imgur.com/Tvdgx.png
When I hit C-c c I then hit c for my customised "j" template its
recreating shamrock/barwebs.org (see status line) as opposed to using
the existing barwebs.com which I have referenced via org-agenda-files
'("~/.orgfiles" "~/webs/.orgfiles").
Can you advise further? (Looks great regardless btw!)

It is an org-capture issue. You have to specify the full path of the org
file in the template even if this file is an agenda file. Otherwise
org-capture assumes that the file is located in `org-directory'.

Thank you, building on Bastien's suggestion I'm working on a "stealing"
feature, that steals templates from `org-capture-templates' and changes the
target.

Actually I love your idea so much I just implemented it in core.
See these new options:
org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
org-capture-templates-contexts
The basic idea is the same than yours, except you only need to
define rules for the agenda/capture keys. It's also extending
the notion of context by allowing to check against modes, not
only files.
Please let me know what do you think. And thanks again for this
simple and beautiful idea.

Hi Sylvain and Bastien,
this is an interesting idea!
I am wondering if the following feature would be useful as well: Context sensitivity sounds most interesting to me if the same key would do different things in different contexts. I am not sure if this is possible with the current implementation? For example, I might want to have a bug recording key which creates an entry in a bug tracker file, but the file is different for different source files, and also the template and target type definitions might be different in different contexts.
That would require a setup which defines a selection letter, and then an a list of (sets of) conditions and the corresponding template definition.
Or am I going overboard here?

May be dir local variables could be used?

I implemented this, relying on the existing contexts options.
Please have a go with the attached patch. I copy the comment
from the commit log:
In the setup below, X is not a real capture template, it is just
an alias to templates A and B in .txt and .el files. A and B are
deactivated by default in all files.
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("X" "Nothing but an alias")
("A" "AAAA" entry (file+headline [...]))
("B" "BBBB" entry (file+headline [...]))))
(setq org-capture-templates-contexts
'(("A" "A" ((not-in-file . ".*")))
("B" "B" ((not-in-file . ".*")))
("X" "A" ((in-file . "\\.txt")))
("X" "B" ((in-file . "\\.el")))))
I find this quite handy... let me know what you think!

Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 17:04:43 +0200
Subject: [PATCH] Implement key replacement depending on the contexts.
* org.el (org-contextualize-agenda-or-capture): Handle key
replacement depending on the contexts.
* org-capture.el (org-capture-templates-contexts): Allow to
use the context as a way to replace one capture template by
another one.
* org-agenda.el (org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts): Allow
to use the context as a way to replace one agenda custom
command by another one.
* org.texi (Templates in contexts): Document the new structure
of the variables `org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts' and
`org-capture-templates-contexts'.
In the setup below, X is not a real capture template, it is just
an alias to templates A and B in .txt and .el files. A and B are
deactivated by default in all files.
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("X" "Nothing but an alias")
("A" "AAAA" entry (file+headline [...]))
("B" "BBBB" entry (file+headline [...]))))
(setq org-capture-templates-contexts
'(("A" "A" ((not-in-file . ".*")))
("B" "B" ((not-in-file . ".*")))
("X" "A" ((in-file . "\\.txt")))
("X" "B" ((in-file . "\\.el")))))
Thanks to Carsten for suggesting this "key-replacement" idea!

> I am wondering if the following feature would be useful as well: Context sensitivity sounds most interesting to me if the same key would do different things in different contexts. I am not sure if this is possible with the current implementation? For example, I might want to have a bug recording key which creates an entry in a bug tracker file, but the file is different for different source files, and also the template and target type definitions might be different in different contexts.
For what it's worth I have pushed changes to github implementing this
and offering the choice to override templates or put them in a submenu
as well as a "stealing" mechanism to modify existing templates'
target.
I do not have access to Bastien's changes yet but from what I
understood we might run out of letters to identify templates. For
example, if we have 10 projects with 3 different templates each, we
already have 30 items in `org-capture-templates'... Or did I miss
something?
Anyway, I'm glad to see that this feature will be in a future org release!
Sylvain.

with no path to use the "existing one" would be a real boon and
certainly works for the original journal template capture. I dont know
about the implementation details but "no path == loaded file" would make
sense with the user wanting specific files then hard code it.
I see Bastien and Carsten are in on the thread too, I'll step back and
see in what direction this now goes ;) Thanks again for the great
feature!

This is how it works right now.
For each agenda custom command or capture template, you can define
a context where it will be accessible.
E.g. you have these custom commands:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("A" "AAAA" ...)
("B" "BBBB" ...)))
But you don't need "B" in .txt files:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
'(("B" ((not-in-file . "\.txt")))))
That's it.
Or maybe you want "B" to be accessible with the "A" key (and
don't want the "A" key):
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
'(("A" "B" ((not-in-file . "\.txt")))))
Or maybe you want "B" to be accessible only in your first two
hours of using Emacs...
(defun less-than-nhours-of-emacs-uptime (&optional n)
(interactive "P")
(let ((n (or n 2)))
(< (time-to-seconds (time-subtract (current-time) before-init-time))
(* n 3600))))
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands-contexts
'(("B" (less-then-nhours-of-emacs-uptime))))
Enjoy,

Hi, my head isnt really in org "mode" (oops!) at the moment, how would I
then implement the template for "files under this directory" as
originally mentioned? ALso it would be really really nice if it would
use the existing org file if that file is on the agenda list and I dont
specify a path component on the destination file variable in the
template.
THanks!

The in-file and not-in-file conditions use regexp and expanded file
names. You can use your directory as the regexp, it will be okay.

Mhh... can't parse this, sorry :/
Can you re-explain again what you want?

If you see my initial reply about which file is used to add the
capture, its explained there - does this make sense?

The reply is that I should hard code the path but I'm really averse to
this.
