I think you're looking for (require 'ox-slimhtml)
; the first argument to load
is a path, as a string - in the above, does the variable ox-slimhtml
refer to the path of the file itself?
The require
statement should be preceded with call to (and (require 'package) (package-initialize))
in your init file, or otherwise - this sets up the package
environment.
When installing with M-x package-install
, Emacs usually takes care of updating custom.el
for you, and updates load-path
- which, if you're still having problems, is what I would check next.
Personally, I use M-x load-library
to load a packages into the current environment, as required.
from ox-slimhtml.
Yeah, sorry, that was just a typo. I meant(require 'ox-slimhtml)
.
If I install the package manually and add (require 'ox-slimhtml)
to my init-file (all the way after all other packages are installed and after (package-initialize)
), it doesn't load on startup. If I then go and execute (load 'ox-slimhtml)
manually, it works.
If I use use-package
like so
(use-package ox-slimhtml
:ensure t)
then it works in the session right after the installation, but doesn't load on startup either.
I wonder if this is something to do with my config, but other packages load and work as expected...
from ox-slimhtml.
I should clarify: by "doesn't load" I mean the backend is not loaded (?) If I try (org-export-to-buffer 'slimhtml "*slimhtml*")
, I get the error:
Unknown "nil" back-end: Aborting export
So, 'slimhtml
is not defined, and if I do this:
(org-export-define-derived-backend 'custom-html-exporter
'slimhtml ;; org's default exporter is 'html
:translate-alist
'((bold . ox-slimhtml-bold) ;; technically, this is already set
(special-block . org-html-special-block)))
I get this:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Cannot use unknown \"slimhtml\" back-end as a parent")
signal(error ("Cannot use unknown \"slimhtml\" back-end as a parent"))
error("Cannot use unknown \"%s\" back-end as a parent" slimhtml)
org-export-register-backend(#s(org-export-backend :name custom-html-exporter :parent slimhtml :transcoders ((bold . ox-slimhtml-bold) (special-block . org-html-special-block)) :options nil :filters nil :blocks nil :menu nil))
org-export-define-derived-backend(custom-html-exporter slimhtml :translate-alist ((bold . ox-slimhtml-bold) (special-block . org-html-special-block)))
eval((org-export-define-derived-backend 'custom-html-exporter 'slimhtml :translate-alist '((bold . ox-slimhtml-bold) (special-block . org-html-special-block))) nil)

eval-last-sexp(nil)
funcall-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil)
call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)
command-execute(eval-last-sexp)
from ox-slimhtml.
Oh, wait, I completely messed up the order of org-export-define-derived-backend
, my bad.
Let me try to figure this out, the problem is with my load process I think
from ox-slimhtml.
I think the problem is a missing autoload
declaration - hopefully this is as simple as adding one line above the org-export backend definition, but I'll have to test it.
from ox-slimhtml.
I managed to fix this by moving the loading of ox-slimhtml after the custom-file loading (I store it in a separate file). So, I guess, steps to reproduce this bug are potentially as follows:
- Install
ox-slimhtml
- In the config, load
ox-slimhtml
first - Then load the custom file (
(load custom-file 'noerror)
)
from ox-slimhtml.
Geez, how dumb am I... It's totally my problem — I generate custom org backends list in my customize file. So, sorry about all this.
from ox-slimhtml.
I usually run my publishing projects through a separate Emacs daemon, or in batch mode - with a simple require
- so thanks for pointing out this use-case scenario!
Verified, locally, that running (require 'ox-slimhtml)
in a fresh environment loads the slimhtml
exporter definition; one can see the presence of the menu option in Export Dispatcher
, as an example.
from ox-slimhtml.
Yeah, my problem was that I had re-defined the list of backends in my customize file, and that file is loaded last:
'(org-export-backends (quote (ascii html latex md hugo)))
from ox-slimhtml.
