I've fixed the implementation of
`org-export--prepare-file-contents` so
that links are relative to the included file. A patch is attached.
I've also created two org files in the test examples directory:
"includer-with-links.org" and "subdir/includee-with-links.org". My
goal
was to add a test in "test-ox.el" `test-org-export/expand-include`
that
checks whether, after exporting the "includer-with-links.org" file
to
Org, the headings *Source and *Target are the same.
I did not figure out how to do this cleanly, so any help
implementing
the test itself would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Daniel

Hello,
Daniel P Gomez <gomez.d...@gmail.com> writes:
I noticed that (buffer-file-name (buffer-base-buffer)) will
always
return nil because `org-export--prepare-file-contents` is
called in
`org-export-include-keyword` after a call to
`with-temp-buffer`. Two
possible solutions to this issue would be either 1. passing the
includer-file as an extra parameter to
`org-export--prepare-file-contents` and then using
`file-relative-name` to generate a relative path, or
alternatively 2 .
passing the matched string that points to the file to be
included.
Example:
#+INCLUDE: "directory/file.org"
Here, if file.org contains a link [[other/image.png]], then all
one
has to do is append the (file-name-directory matched) to the
old-path.
In this example this would result in directory/other/image.png.
This second solution does not require a call to
(buffer-file-name
(buffer-base-buffer)), but seems hackish in the sense that we
would
pass 2 redundant arguments to
`org-export-prepare-file-contents`: both
the expanded and the non-expanded include-file filename.
Perhaps I'm missing a simpler 3rd solution?
I think solution 1 is fine.
If we opt for solution 1 then new-path could be made relative
here
;; (org-element-put-property new :path
new-path)
(org-element-put-property
new :path
(if includer-file
(file-relative-name
new-path (file-name-directory includer-file))
new-path))
Indeed. However, the (if includer-file ...) should be integrated
in
new-path binding, IMO.
I will attempt to write them once the implementation is
completed.
Great. Thank you!
