exporting clock-in and clock-out times

exporting clock-in and clock-out times

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 396 bytes --]

I'm exporting to HTML and trying to get my clock-in and clock-out times to
export as well, but it's not working.

My org file looks like this:

* foo

  CLOCK: [2012-11-09 Fri 03:58]--[2012-11-09 Fri 03:59] =>  0:01

  foo.

  #+OPTIONS:   d:t timestamp:t

---

But the clock-in and clock-out times do not appear—nor does the calculated
time in between.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

FIRST : always, please, always. Please, always,
          did I already say always? 

please always send: 

Org-version,
Emacs version
Operatig System

and in this case, dealing with the exporter, if you used the new or the old exporter.

Here:
Org-mode version 7.9.2 (854ddf6 @ c:/Users/ridolfi/programs/emacs-o/org/lisp/)
GNU Emacs 24.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2012-06-10 on MARVIN


1. I can  export the clock line *IF* I have a property drawer:

#+OPTIONS:   d:t timestamp:t
* foo   
  CLOCK: [2012-11-09 Fri 03:58]--[2012-11-09 Fri 03:59] =>  0:01
:PROPERTIES:
:END:
  foo.
-+--------------------------------HTML------------
1 foo
CLOCK:  11/09/12 ven 03:58– 11/09/12 ven 03:59 =>  0:01 
PROPERTIES 
foo. 
2 bye    ARCHIVE
-+----------------------------


so this is a quick and dirty solution.


2. Otherwise  I cannot get the clock line in the HTML file:
- without (i.e. commenting out) the :PROPERTIES: drawer

- with the new exporter 

  (with or without propertiies)



cheers,
Giovanni

You may want to use `org-export-with-clocks', or the c:t OPTION item.

Thanks! The c:t OPTION worked like a charm!

Is there a way to get clock items to display in 12-hour format? At least in
the HTML export?

You could use `org-display-custom-times' variable, with
`org-time-stamp-custom-formats' set accordingly.

Note that if you don't want to toggle the custom time display globally,
you still can trigger it during export with bind keyword:

  #+BIND: org-display-custom-times t

Great! And how should I specify org-time-stamp-custom-formats in order to
display 12-hour times?

Default is this, which displays 24-hour times:

("<%m/%d/%y %a>" . "<%m/%d/%y %a %H:%M>")

According to `format-time-string' docstring, something like:

  ("<%m/%d/%y %a>" . "<%m/%d/%y %a %I:%M %p>")

Wait, I was wrong—adding the c:t OPTION actually did not solve the problem.
I forgot I had converted my clock-in and clock-out to plain text in an
attempt to work around the problem, so it appeared to work only because it
was plain text. Apologies.

So. I still have the same problem, namely:

How to get my clock-in and clock-out times to appear in HTML export?

My specs:

GNU Emacs 23.3.50.1 (i386-apple-darwin9.8.0, NS apple-appkit-949.54) of
2011-10-25 on braeburn.aquamacs.org - Aquamacs Distribution 2.4

Org-mode version 7.9.2 (7.9.2-dist @ /Users/peter/elisp/org-7.9.2/lisp/)

OS X 10.8.2

Thanks!

I was talking about the new exporter, where it should work.

Oh cool. How do I install the new exporter? I don't use git.

You can use package.el, for example and install org-plus-contrib package
(new exporter is in contrib/ directory). See:

  http://orgmode.org/elpa.html

OK, I see a folder called contrib, but the documentation doesn't say
anything about a new exporter.

Inside contrib is a folder called elisp, which has org-export.el and
export-export-generic.el. Is that the new exporter? How do I install it?

Aloha Peter,

In general, make sure contrib/lisp is on your load path, require the
back-end you want to use, and (optionally) define a key stroke sequence
to launch org-export-dispatch.  You might have this in .emacs:

(setq load-path (cons "~/.emacs.d/src/org-mode/lisp" load-path))
(setq load-path (cons "~/.emacs.d/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp" load-path))
(require 'org-e-texinfo)
(define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c e") 'org-export-dispatch)

This is set up to use the texinfo back-end, but you might want
org-e-latex, org-e-html, or one of the others.

Then, when you want to export your Org document, use C-c e to see the
menu choices available from the back-ends you've required.

In my (limited) experience, and speaking generally, the back-ends are
already quite good. 

All the best,
Tom
