|
* Introduction
|
|
|
|
The Library of Babel is an extensible collection of ready-made and
|
|
easily-shortcut-callable source-code blocks for handling common tasks.
|
|
Org-babel comes pre-populated with the source-code blocks located in
|
|
this file. It is possible to add source-code blocks from any org-mode
|
|
file to the library by calling =(org-babel-lob-ingest
|
|
"path/to/file.org")=.
|
|
|
|
This file is included in worg mainly less for viewing through the web
|
|
interface, and more for contribution through the worg git repository.
|
|
If you have code snippets that you think others may find useful please
|
|
add them to this file and [[file:~/src/worg/worg-git.org::contribute-to-worg][contribute them]] to worg.
|
|
|
|
The raw Org-mode text of this file can be downloaded at
|
|
[[repofile:contrib/babel/library-of-babel.org][library-of-babel.org]]
|
|
|
|
* Simple
|
|
|
|
A collection of simple utility functions:
|
|
|
|
#+name: echo
|
|
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var input="echo'd"
|
|
input
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
* File I/O
|
|
|
|
** Reading and writing files
|
|
|
|
Read the contents of the file at =file=. The =:results vector= and
|
|
=:results scalar= header arguments can be used to read the contents of
|
|
file as either a table or a string.
|
|
|
|
#+name: read
|
|
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var file="" :var format=""
|
|
(if (string= format "csv")
|
|
(with-temp-buffer
|
|
(org-table-import (expand-file-name file) nil)
|
|
(org-table-to-lisp))
|
|
(with-temp-buffer
|
|
(insert-file-contents (expand-file-name file))
|
|
(buffer-string)))
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
Write =data= to a file at =file=. If =data= is a list, then write it
|
|
as a table in traditional Org-mode table syntax.
|
|
|
|
#+name: write
|
|
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var data="" :var file="" :var ext='()
|
|
(flet ((echo (r) (if (stringp r) r (format "%S" r))))
|
|
(with-temp-file file
|
|
(case (and (listp data)
|
|
(or ext (intern (file-name-extension file))))
|
|
('tsv (insert (orgtbl-to-tsv data '(:fmt echo))))
|
|
('csv (insert (orgtbl-to-csv data '(:fmt echo))))
|
|
(t (org-babel-insert-result data)))))
|
|
nil
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
** Remote files
|
|
|
|
*** json
|
|
|
|
Read local or remote file in [[http://www.json.org/][json]] format into emacs-lisp objects.
|
|
|
|
#+name: json
|
|
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var file='() :var url='()
|
|
(require 'json)
|
|
(cond
|
|
(file
|
|
(with-temp-filebuffer file
|
|
(goto-char (point-min))
|
|
(json-read)))
|
|
(url
|
|
(require 'w3m)
|
|
(with-temp-buffer
|
|
(w3m-retrieve url)
|
|
(goto-char (point-min))
|
|
(json-read))))
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
*** Google docs
|
|
|
|
The following code blocks make use of the [[http://code.google.com/p/googlecl/][googlecl]] Google command line
|
|
tool. This tool provides functionality for accessing Google services
|
|
from the command line, and the following code blocks use /googlecl/
|
|
for reading from and writing to Google docs with Org-mode code blocks.
|
|
|
|
**** Read a document from Google docs
|
|
|
|
The =google= command seems to be throwing "Moved Temporarily" errors
|
|
when trying to download textual documents, but this is working fine
|
|
for spreadsheets.
|
|
|
|
#+name: gdoc-read
|
|
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var title="example" :var format="csv"
|
|
(let* ((file (concat title "." format))
|
|
(cmd (format "google docs get --format %S --title %S" format title)))
|
|
(message cmd) (message (shell-command-to-string cmd))
|
|
(prog1 (if (string= format "csv")
|
|
(with-temp-buffer
|
|
(org-table-import (shell-quote-argument file) '(4))
|
|
(org-table-to-lisp))
|
|
(with-temp-buffer
|
|
(insert-file-contents (shell-quote-argument file))
|
|
(buffer-string)))
|
|
(delete-file file)))
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
For example, a line like the following can be used to read the
|
|
contents of a spreadsheet named =num-cells= into a table.
|
|
: #+call: gdoc-read(title="num-cells"")
|
|
|
|
A line like the following can be used to read the contents of a
|
|
document as a string.
|
|
|
|
: #+call: gdoc-read(title="loremi", :format "txt")
|
|
|
|
**** Write a document to a Google docs
|
|
|
|
Write =data= to a google document named =title=. If =data= is tabular
|
|
it will be saved to a spreadsheet, otherwise it will be saved as a
|
|
normal document.
|
|
|
|
#+name: gdoc-write
|
|
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var title="babel-upload" :var data=fibs(n=10) :results silent
|
|
(let* ((format (if (listp data) "csv" "txt"))
|
|
(tmp-file (make-temp-file "org-babel-google-doc" nil (concat "." format)))
|
|
(cmd (format "google docs upload --title %S %S" title tmp-file)))
|
|
(with-temp-file tmp-file
|
|
(insert
|
|
(if (listp data)
|
|
(orgtbl-to-csv
|
|
data '(:fmt (lambda (el) (if (stringp el) el (format "%S" el)))))
|
|
(if (stringp data) data (format "%S" data)))))
|
|
(message cmd)
|
|
(prog1 (shell-command-to-string cmd) (delete-file tmp-file)))
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
example usage

|

|

|

|

|
|
* Tables
|
|
|
|
** LaTeX Table Export
|
|
|
|
*** booktabs
|
|
|
|
This source block can be used to wrap a table in the latex =booktabs=
|
|
environment. The source block adds a =toprule= and =bottomrule= (so
|
|
don't use =hline= at the top or bottom of the table). The =hline=
|
|
after the header is replaced with a =midrule=.
|
|
|
|
Note that this function bypasses the Org-mode LaTeX exporter and calls
|
|
=orgtbl-to-generic= to create the output table. This means that the
|
|
entries in the table are not translated from Org-mode to LaTeX.
|
|
|
|
It takes the following arguments -- all but the first two are
|
|
optional.
|
