* About
~org-blog~ is a blog exporter for ~org-mode~ written by David
O'Toole in 2006. ~org-mode~ has since then changed a bit and it
seemed that it no longer worked. It also seems to be the only
viable/acceptable pure-org solution for me, so I'm trying to revive
it.
** Why
As stated, it seemed to be out-of-date and packages like [[http://renard.github.com/o-blog/][o-blog]] and
[[http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Blorg][blorg]] didn't work for me, and many others require some external
tool to work.
* Setup
Since I've adapted it to work as a normal publishing function for
org, setting it up is a lot like any other publishing project as
well:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-publish-project-alist
'(("myblog"
:base-directory "~/location/to/org/files/"
:publishing-directory "/place/to/export/to/"
:base-extension "org"
:publishing-function org-publish-org-to-blog
:blog-title "some title"
:blog-description "some description"
:blog-export-rss t
:index-title "oni blog"
:recursive nil
:table-of-contents nil)))
#+END_SRC
Most of these options are very normal project settings and can be
read about in the documentation for the variable
~org-publish-project-alist~. The ~blog-title~, ~blog-description~,
~blog-export-rss~ and ~index-title~, however, are used by
~org-blog~.
- ~blog-title~
This setting is used when exporting RSS. It sets the ~title~ in
the XML output.
- ~blog-description~
This setting is also used when exporting RSS. It sets the
~description~ in the XML output.
- ~blog-export-rss~
Whether or not you would like an RSS feed to be exported.
- ~index-title~
This is used as the title of the blog's index page.
Apart from these there are also 2 other settings that need your
attention:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-blog-directory "~/path/to/blog/org/files/")
(setq org-blog-unfinished-directory "~/path/to/drafts/")
#+END_SRC
These don't have any relevance to the exporting and publishing
functions, but they're used by the ~org-blog-new-post~ and
~org-blog-finish-post~ functions, which help with creating new
posts.
