NAME

org-to-html - Export Org document to HTML

VERSION

This document describes version 0.16 of org-to-html (from Perl distribution Org-To-HTML), released on 2015-09-03.

SYNOPSIS

Usage:

 % org-to-html [options]

DESCRIPTION

This is the non-OO interface. For more customization, consider subclassing Org::To::HTML.

OPTIONS

* marks required options.

Configuration options

--config-path=filename

Set path to configuration file.

Can be specified multiple times.

--config-profile=s

Set configuration profile to use.

--no-config

Do not use any configuration file.

Environment options

--no-env

Do not read environment for default options.

Output options

--format=s

Choose output format, e.g. json, text.

Default value:

 undef

--json

Set output format to json.

--naked-res

When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.

Default value:

 0

By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:

    [200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]

The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use `--naked-res` so you just get:

    [1,2,3]

Other options

--css-url=s

Add a link to CSS document.

--exclude-tags-json=s

Exclude trees that carry one of these tags (JSON-encoded).

See --exclude-tags.

--exclude-tags=s@

Exclude trees that carry one of these tags.

If the whole document doesn't have any of these tags, then the whole document will be exported. Otherwise, trees that do not carry one of these tags will be excluded. If a selected tree is a subtree, the heading hierarchy above it will also be selected for export, but not the text below those headings.

exclude_tags is evaluated after include_tags.

Can be specified multiple times.

--help, -h, -?

Display help message and exit.

--html-title=s

HTML document title, defaults to source_file.

--include-tags-json=s

Include trees that carry one of these tags (JSON-encoded).

See --include-tags.

--include-tags=s@

Include trees that carry one of these tags.

Works like Org's 'org-export-select-tags' variable. If the whole document doesn't have any of these tags, then the whole document will be exported. Otherwise, trees that do not carry one of these tags will be excluded. If a selected tree is a subtree, the heading hierarchy above it will also be selected for export, but not the text below those headings.

Can be specified multiple times.

--naked

Don't wrap exported HTML with HTML/HEAD/BODY elements.

--source-file=s

Source Org file to export.

--source-str=s

Alternatively you can specify Org string directly.

--target-file=s

HTML file to write to.

If not specified, HTML string will be returned.

--version, -v

Display program's version and exit.

COMPLETION

This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.

bash

To activate bash completion for this script, put:

 complete -C org-to-html org-to-html

in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is recommended, however, that you install shcompgen which allows you to activate completion scripts for several kinds of scripts on multiple shells. Some CPAN distributions (those that are built with Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GenShellCompletion) will even automatically enable shell completion for their included scripts (using shcompgen) at installation time, so you can immadiately have tab completion.

tcsh

To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:

 complete org-to-html 'p/*/`org-to-html`/'

in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).

other shells

For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.

ENVIRONMENT

ORG_TO_HTML_OPT => str

Specify additional command-line options

CONFIGURATION FILE

This script can read configuration file, which by default is searched at ~/.config/org-to-html.conf, ~/org-to-html.conf or /etc/org-to-html.conf (can be changed by specifying --config-path). All found files will be read and merged.

To disable searching for configuration files, pass --no-config.

Configuration file is in the format of IOD, which is basically INI with some extra features.

You can put multiple profiles in a single file by using section names like [profile=SOMENAME]. Those sections will only be read if you specify the matching --config-profile SOMENAME.

List of available configuration parameters:

 css_url (see --css-url)
 exclude_tags (see --exclude-tags)
 format (see --format)
 html_title (see --html-title)
 include_tags (see --include-tags)
 naked (see --naked)
 naked_res (see --naked-res)
 source_file (see --source-file)
