[babel] Commenting out src blocks for tangling

[babel] Commenting out src blocks for tangling

[Eric S Fraga]

Hello,

I finally bit the bullet and converted by rather convoluted and long
emacs startup code to an org file with emacs-lisp code blocks.  I then
tangle these into the actual code which is loaded by emacs at
startup.  So far, so good, and it does make it easier for me to navigate
around my customisations.

However, it has highlighted a feature which is missing (I think) but
which would be great.  I tangle all the code blocks to the same
file.  It would be great if I could have the =org-babel-tangle= command
skip sections that are COMMENTed out (i.e. headline with COMMENT, as
produced by =org-toggle-comment=).

Alternatively, a :nobabel: or :notangle: tag to mark subtrees that
should be excluded would be fine.

If I have missed a way of doing this, please do let me know (politely
;-).  If not, any suggestions on how to achieve this would be great.

Thanks,
eric

You should be able to set the “tangle” property of the headline to “no”
to achieve this effect: see the following section of the manual:
(org) Header arguments in Org mode properties

It isn’t as easy to manipulate as a tag, perhaps.

Thanks.  This does work and is relatively straightforward.  However, it
provides no visual indication of excluded sections from my customisation
file which is rather unfortunate.  That's why I would prefer to be able
to COMMENT or tag excluded sub-trees.  I guess I can use column view to
see what is excluded...

In any case, I can manage what I want for the moment.

Thanks again,
eric

G'day Eric,

If I understand your problem correctly, doesn't the property :tangle: do
what you want?

Yes, thanks; Aaron Ecay has also pointed out to me.  It works and does
exactly what I said I needed.  And you have both been very polite :-)

Re: [babel] Commenting out src blocks for tangling

[Darlan Cavalcante Moreira]

I also converted my Emacs configuration to an org-mode file a long time ago
and I hit the same spot you did. As you, I initially assumed (wished) that
the COMMENT marker would disable tangling of blocks in that subtree. After
that I found out the tangle property, which solves the problem but has no
visual indication as you mentioned.

Nowadays I use both approaches. Whenever I set the tangle property to "no"
I also set the COMMENT mark and vice-verse. It is just a very minor
annoyance to do both things and I'm used to it now.

I agree - COMMENTing a subtree should automatically disable tangling of code blocks in the
subtree. Would this something which could be introduced easily, as it seems there are quite a few
who assumed that it would be doing it?

Does it work as well for the `:noexport:' tag?

I don't think it should. Tangling is something different to export, so there should not be ay
interactions between the two in this respect. On the other hand, COMMENT is generic - it is a
COMMENT and does not concern anything. So it is applicable for tangling as well.

I would actually say it would be counterintuitive if :noexport: would influence tangling as it is
governed by a completely different approach in org as well as in what I am doing with the org file.

I've always used :noexport: instead of COMMENT (as I hate the visual clutter
of that wide keyword). So, for me, they were equivalent.

You must be right, though, that they aren't: COMMENT seems more generic than
just export. So, dismiss my request.

  Seb

Follow up: would it be possible to have the same mechanism for tangling, i.e. a tag :notangle:?
functioning would be equivalent to property tangle: no but more visible and consistent with the
:noexport:? One could also define properties to be tangled and not tangled for different scenarios?

One approach could be to use export filters here.

I'd rather let (or someone else) find out if this approach is
easy enough before considering adding a new keyword like :notangle:.
But if you (or someone else) come up with a patch implementing the
:notangle: approach, of course we might consider it too.

Why not use the new exporter, rather than org-babel-tangle?

Below, there is a minimal backend called R-src-blocks that only exports
src-blocks for language "R" and the headline titles as comments. 

R-src-blocks backend is just an illustration - I don't intend that anyone
actually use it.

I guess I am suggesting that tangling is just exporting code; with full access
to all the export machinery (like exclude_tags and backend specific options), it
might be better to head toward backends that yield code than to elaborate
org-babel-tangle.

No.

:noexport: is meaningful in the context of exporting, 
not in the context of tangling.

Does this ONLY affect tangling or also other code?  For instance I
often keep LATEX_HEADER, Emacs lisp and the like in a COMMENTed
headline. 

This should still be processed.

I just tried it with my init file and it did not work. Here is a
minimal example. Save this as "test.org":

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Testing

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "hello world")
#+END_SRC

* COMMENT Commenting

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "Salut le monde 2")
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Then do a "M-x org-babel-load-file" giving "test.org" as file name.

If you look at *Messages*, or at the generated test.el, you will see the
second block has been tangled.

Am I missing something with this feature, or is this a bug? (I tried
with "emacs -Q" and loading a current org, and the same happens.)

Thanks,

Alan

I can't reproduce, both manual tangling and tangling through
org-babel-load-file only tangle the first block for me.  Maybe you
aren't using a current version of Org-mode.

I'm on.

Org-mode version 8.2.1 (release_8.2.1-99-g2eef1b @ /home/eschulte/src/org-mode/lisp/)

Thanks, my version was a couple weeks old and the current version does
work with this example. However I could not make it work with this
slightly bigger example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Testing

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "hello world")
#+END_SRC

* COMMENT Commenting

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "Salut le monde 2")
#+END_SRC

** Testing sub tree

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "hello subtree")
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I see that "hello subtree" is tangled. Does it mean that to comment a
whole tree I need to comment every subtree (recursively)?

Thanks,

Alan

I'm sorry, but I think there is a bug with the fix. When I tangle a
file, I get an error:

org-babel-under-commented-heading-p: Symbol's function definition is void: org-babel-under-commented-headline-p

I also see a failure with the tests:

1 unexpected results:
   FAILED  ob-tangle/continued-code-blocks-w-noweb-ref

I just did a git pull before trying this.

This should be fixed now, thanks for pointing it out.
