export outside of emacs

export outside of emacs

[Luca Ferrari]

Hi all,
how can I run emacs to export org-mode files from outside of Emacs? I
would like to provide  a Makefile or a script to automatically build
PDFs (LaTeX and Beamer) out of my org file repository.

Thanks,
Luca

You just run with --batch. That starts "emacs -Q" in batch mode. If you
need to load some elisp at that point to make your export work, you can
pack all that in an elisp file and pass that to the --eval switch. Finally
use -f switch to specify which function to run to do the export.

Here's one example[1] (look at the "emacs-batch" target in there.
