I've added a small new feature to org-publish.el version 1.77, available from http://dto.freeshell.org/e/org-publish.el
There is a new project keyword called :preparation-function. Its value should be a function with no arguments, which will be called to "prepare" a project for publishing. An example usage is to call GNU Make to update files that need processing, before publishing the resultant files. I use this to publish tarballs on my website. Here is the project definition I use to make that happen: > '("packages" > :base-directory "~/packages/" > :base-extension "gz" > :publishing-directory "/ssh:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/html/packages/" > :publishing-function org-publish-attachment > :preparation-function (lambda () > (call-process "make" nil nil nil > "--makefile" > "/home/dto/packages/Makefile"))) This causes the *.gz to be updated when neccessary (according to the makefile) and then any updated *.gz are uploaded to the web server. -- David O'Toole [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dto.freeshell.org/notebook/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
