NAME

App::org2wp - Publish Org document to WordPress as blog post

VERSION

This document describes version 0.003 of App::org2wp (from Perl distribution App-org2wp), released on 2016-12-14.

FUNCTIONS

org2wp(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Publish Org document to WordPress as blog post.

This is originally a quick hack because I couldn't make Lhttps://github.com/punchagan/org2blog on my Emacs installation to work after some update. org2wp uses the same format as org2blog, but instead of being an Emacs package, it is a CLI script written in Perl.

First, create ~/org2wp.conf containing the API credentials, e.g.:

 proxy=https://YOURBLOGNAME.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php
 username=YOURUSERNAME
 password=YOURPASSWORD

You can also put multiple credentials in the configuration file using profile sections, e.g.:

 [profile=blog1]
 proxy=https://YOURBLOG1NAME.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php
 username=YOURUSERNAME
 password=YOURPASSWORD
 
 [profile=blog2]
 proxy=https://YOURBLOG2NAME.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php
 username=YOURUSERNAME
 password=YOURPASSWORD

and specify which profile you want using command-line option e.g. --config-profile blog1.

To create a blog post, write your Org document (e.g. in post1.org) using this format:

 #+TITLE: Blog post title
 #+CATEGORY: cat1, cat2
 #+TAGS: tag1,tag2,tag3
 
 Text of your post ...
 ...

then:

 % org2wp post1.org

this will create a draft post. To publish directly:

 % org2wp --publish post1.org

Note that this will also modify your Org file and insert this line at the top:

 #+POSTID: 1234

where 1234 is the post ID retrieved from the server when creating the post.

After the post is created, you can update using the same command:

 % org2wp post1.org

You can use --publish to publish the post, or --no-publish to revert it to draft.

To set more attributes:

 % org2wp post1.org --comment-status open \
     --extra-attr ping_status=closed --extra-attr sticky=1

This function is not exported.

This function supports dry-run operation.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

• comment_status => str (default: "closed")

  Whether to allow comments (open) or not (closed).

• extra_attrs => hash

  Set extra post attributes, e.g. ping_status, post_format, etc.

• filename* => filename

  Path to Org document to publish.

• password* => str

• proxy* => str

  Example: Chttps://YOURBLOGNAME.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php.

• publish => bool

  Whether to publish post or make it a draft.

• username* => str

Special arguments:

• -dry_run => bool

  Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)
