+ +02:03.920 --> 00:02:05.759 +There are three components + +00:02:05.759 --> 00:02:07.352 +to an executable Org file + +00:02:07.352 --> 00:02:08.560 +that all need to be present + +00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:10.080 +in order for this to work. + +02:10.080 --> 02:11.920 +Starting from the top of the file, + +02:11.920 --> 02:14.239 +we have a shebang block. + +02:14.239 --> 00:02:16.640 +Next we have an Org Babel block + +00:02:16.640 --> 00:02:17.760 +written in Emacs Lisp, + +00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:20.000 +which is what we actually saw executing, + +00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:20.959 +and then there are some + +00:02:20.959 --> 00:02:23.520 +eval local variables or Elvs + +02:23.520 --> 02:25.200 +that are involved in making this + +02:25.200 --> 02:26.800 +actually executable. + +02:26.800 --> 02:29.760 +Let's start with the shebang block. + +02:29.760 --> 00:02:33.280 +Org syntax does not have support + +00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:34.959 +for shebang lines. + +02:34.959 --> 02:37.120 +However, it supports the shebang block. + +02:37.120 --> 02:39.440 +This is because Org comments, blocks, + +02:39.440 --> 00:02:41.760 +keywords, etc. that start with the + +00:02:41.760 --> 00:02:43.920 +sharp sign have the same syntax as + +00:02:43.920 --> 00:02:46.720 +comments in POSIX and PowerShell. + +02:46.720 --> 00:02:53.280 +This block is in fact valid + +02:53.280 --> 00:02:55.040 +Bash, Dash, Zsh, PowerShell, + +00:02:55.040 --> 00:02:57.280 +and maybe some other shells as well. + +02:57.280 --> 00:03:02.480 +In essence what it does is, + +03:02.480 --> 00:03:03.440 +perform some setup + +00:03:03.440 --> 00:03:06.080 +to avoid polluting standard output, + +00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:07.516 +and then it runs Emacs + +00:03:07.516 --> 00:03:08.959 +to load the file itself. + +00:03:08.959 --> 00:03:12.640 +The Elisp that is passed on the command line + +00:03:12.640 --> 00:03:14.959 +is explicated over here on the right, + +03:14.959 --> 00:03:17.920 +and in essence what it does is, + +00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:20.480 +to keep the startup time minimal + +00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:21.760 +and as low as possible, + +00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:24.080 +it loads the absolute bare minimum + +00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:25.120 +needed for Babel, + +00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.519 +and then it calls hack-local-variables + +00:03:27.519 --> 00:03:31.680 +triggering the eval-local-variables. + +03:31.680 --> 00:03:33.614 +What do the eval-local-variables do, + +00:03:33.614 --> 00:03:34.799 +and how those work? + +00:03:34.799 --> 00:03:36.319 +The essence of the approach is to + +00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:38.720 +use org-confirm-babel-evaluate + +00:03:38.720 --> 00:03:40.480 +to allow Babel execution. + +00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:43.360 +We can't set it to nil because that is + +00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:45.308 +an arbitrary code execution vector, + +00:03:45.308 --> 00:03:48.000 +which we don't want if we're sharing files. + +03:48.000 --> 00:03:49.555 +Instead what we do is, + +00:03:49.555 --> 00:03:52.000 +we use the fact that it can be a function, + +00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.280 +and we normalize the block of code, + +00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:57.320 +we checksum it, and then we check + +00:03:57.320 --> 00:03:59.280 +that it matches this checksum up here + +00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:00.400 +at the top of the file, + +00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:02.640 +and then sort of inside there, + +04:02.640 --> 00:04:04.159 +inside of org-sbe, + +00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.560 +which is Org source block evaluate, + +04:06.560 --> 04:08.959 +we call the block. + +04:08.959 --> 00:04:11.120 +The actual implementation of this + +00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:12.497 +is somewhat more complicated. + +00:04:12.497 --> 00:04:14.799 +However, it's small enough to fit in + +00:04:14.799 --> 00:04:17.519 +the local variables at the end of the file. + +04:17.519 --> 00:04:19.040 +One thing to note is that + +00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:20.799 +if you are using PowerShell, + +00:04:20.799 --> 00:04:23.919 +PowerShell parses the whole file + +00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:25.040 +which means that + +00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:27.759 +for any normal Org content, + +00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:28.639 +you need to put it in + +04:28.639 --> 00:04:30.240 +a multi-line PowerShell comment, + +00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:31.199 +and close it. + +00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:32.371 +So, once we hit + +00:04:32.371 --> 00:04:34.160 +hack-local-variables at the end, + +00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:37.120 +we run the eval-local-variables block, + +00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:40.880 +then we enter this Elisp block, + +04:40.880 --> 00:04:42.720 +and you can write whatever you want. + +00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:44.160 +All the power of Org Babel is + +00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:45.360 +now at your fingertips + +00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:47.199 +in order to do what you need + +04:47.199 --> 04:48.800 +for this file. + +04:48.800 --> 00:04:50.320 +Finally, let's do a quick demo + +00:04:50.320 --> 00:04:52.453 +of how to use this to make + +00:04:52.453 --> 00:04:54.800 +your own Org files executable. + +04:54.800 --> 00:05:01.840 +Orgstrap is available on MELPA as mentioned, + +05:01.840 --> 00:05:06.080 +and it can be installed using package.el + +00:05:06.080 --> 00:05:11.280 +by calling package-install orgstrap. + +05:11.280 --> 05:13.520 +It will download, and it will install. + +05:13.520 --> 00:05:18.720 +Then you can open an existing file + +05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.919 +or a new file. In this case, + +00:05:21.919 --> 00:05:25.199 +let me open a file called example.org. + +05:25.199 --> 00:05:26.996 +And then orgstrap provides + +00:05:26.996 --> 00:05:29.360 +command called orgstrap-init. + +05:29.360 --> 00:05:30.953 +What orgstrap-init does is, + +00:05:30.953 --> 00:05:33.759 +it populates a file with the machinery + +05:33.759 --> 00:05:36.639 +needed to run an orgstrap block. + +00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:38.560 +We're just going to do a message + +05:38.560 --> 05:43.440 +"hello orgstrap!". + +05:43.440 --> 00:05:46.160 +If you look up at the top, + +00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:47.386 +you will see that the + +00:05:47.386 --> 00:05:50.320 +orgstrap-block-checksum will change + +05:50.320 --> 00:05:51.520 +when I save the file. + +00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:53.840 +This makes it much easier to author files + +00:05:53.840 --> 00:05:55.120 +with orgstrap blocks. + +00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:56.560 +And then we need one last piece + +00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:57.876 +of machinery, + +00:05:57.876 --> 00:06:00.400 +which is the shebang block. + +00:06:00.400 --> 00:06:01.520 +I am just going to steal + +00:06:01.520 --> 00:06:02.560 +the shebang block from + +00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.080 +this other file over here + +06:06.080 --> 00:06:07.039 +since it is available. + +00:06:07.039 --> 00:06:08.880 +You can also get it from shebang.org, + +00:06:08.880 --> 00:06:10.800 +and I have plans to add a command + +00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:12.560 +to insert this into the file directly, + +00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.600 +which may actually be done by the time + +00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:19.520 +this video is actually posted and visible. + +06:19.520 --> 00:06:21.120 +There's one last step, + +00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:24.160 +which is that we need to run dired + +06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.520 +in order to… There we go. + +06:27.520 --> 06:31.039 +So, we use Shift m, capital m, + +06:31.039 --> 00:06:32.800 +in order to make our + +00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:35.520 +example file executable, + +06:35.520 --> 00:06:42.140 +and then if we come back to here, + +00:06:42.140 --> 00:06:47.360 +we see that example.org is now executable, + +00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:48.000 +and we can run it. + +06:48.000 --> 06:50.560 +"hello orgstrap!", and we're done. + +06:50.560 --> 06:52.639 +So, that's the basic workflow + +06:52.639 --> 06:54.880 +for getting orgstrap files + +06:54.880 --> 00:06:56.240 +to be executable. + +00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.960 +I will be around to answer questions live, + +00:06:58.960 --> 00:07:00.800 +and I will be also available in + +00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.280 +the #emacsconf IRC channel all day. + +00:07:03.280 --> 00:07:04.960 +I hope you have found this useful, + +00:07:04.960 --> 00:07:08.160 +and thank you very much for watching. + +00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:09.160 +[captions by bhavin192 (Bhavin Gandhi)] diff --git a/2021/captions/exec.md b/2021/captions/exec.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..0363771c --- /dev/null +++ b/2021/captions/exec.md @@ -0,0 +1,186 @@ +<a name="transcript"></a> +# Transcript + +[[!template text="Hello all!
