Moving my Org post subtree to the 11ty directory

| 11ty, org, emacs, blogging

I sometimes want to move the Org source for my blog posts to the same directory as the 11ty-exported HTML. This should make it easier to update and reexport blog posts in the future. The following code copies or moves the subtree to the 11ty export directory. 

(defun my-org-11ty-copy-subtree (&optional do-cut)
  "Copy the subtree for the current post to the 11ty export directory.
With prefix arg, move the subtree."
  (interactive (list current-prefix-arg))
  (let* ((file-properties
          (org-element-map
              (org-element-parse-buffer)
              'keyword
            (lambda (el)
              (when (string-match "ELEVENTY" (org-element-property :key el))
                (list
                 (org-element-property :key el)
                 (org-element-property :value el)
                 (buffer-substring-no-properties
                  (org-element-property :begin el)
                  (org-element-property :end el)))))))
         (entry-properties (org-entry-properties))
         (filename (expand-file-name
                    "index.org"
                    (expand-file-name
                     (assoc-default "EXPORT_ELEVENTY_FILE_NAME" entry-properties)
                     (car (assoc-default "ELEVENTY_BASE_DIR" file-properties))))))
    (unless (file-directory-p (file-name-directory filename))
      (make-directory (file-name-directory filename) t))
    ;; find the heading that sets the current EXPORT_ELEVENTY_FILE_NAME
    (goto-char
     (org-find-property "EXPORT_ELEVENTY_FILE_NAME" (org-entry-get-with-inheritance "EXPORT_ELEVENTY_FILE_NAME")))
    (org-copy-subtree 1 (if do-cut 'cut))
    (with-temp-file filename
      (org-mode)
      (insert (or
               (mapconcat (lambda (file-prop) (elt file-prop 2))
                          file-properties
                          "")
               "")
              "\n")
      (org-yank))
    (find-file filename)
    (goto-char (point-min))))

Then this adds a link to it: 

(defun my-org-export-filter-body-add-index-link (string backend info)
  (if (and
       (member backend '(11ty html))
       (plist-get info :file-name)
       (plist-get info :base-dir)
       (file-exists-p (expand-file-name
                       "index.org"
                       (expand-file-name
                        (plist-get info :file-name)
                        (plist-get info :base-dir)))))
      (concat string
              (format "<div><a href=\"%sindex.org\">View org source for this post</a></div>"
                      (plist-get info :permalink)))
    string))

(with-eval-after-load 'ox
  (add-to-list 'org-export-filter-body-functions #'my-org-export-filter-body-add-index-link))

Then I want to wrap the whole thing up in an export function: 

(defun my-org-11ty-export (&optional async subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist)
  (let* ((info (org-11ty--get-info subtreep visible-only))
         (file (org-11ty--base-file-name subtreep visible-only)))
    (unless (string= (plist-get info :input-file)
                     (expand-file-name
                      "index.org"
                      (expand-file-name
                       (plist-get info :file-name)
                       (plist-get info :base-dir))))
      (save-window-excursion
        (my-org-11ty-copy-subtree)))
    (org-11ty-export-to-11tydata-and-html async subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist)
    (my-org-11ty-find-file)))

Now to figure out how to override the export menu. Totally messy hack! 

(with-eval-after-load 'ox-11ty
  (map-put (caddr (org-export-backend-menu (org-export-get-backend '11ty)))
           ?o (list "To Org, 11tydata.json, HTML" 'my-org-11ty-export)))
