;;; Commentary:

;; This library implements a generic export engine for Org, built on
;; its syntactical parser: Org Elements.

;; Besides that parser, the generic exporter is made of three distinct
;; parts:

;; - The communication channel consists in a property list, which is
;;   created and updated during the process.  Its use is to offer
;;   every piece of information, would it be export options or
;;   contextual data, all in a single place.  The exhaustive list of
;;   properties is given in "The Communication Channel" section of
;;   this file.

;; - The transcoder walks the parse tree, ignores or treat as plain
;;   text elements and objects according to export options, and
;;   eventually calls back-end specific functions to do the real
;;   transcoding, concatenating their return value along the way.

;; - The filter system is activated at the very beginning and the very
;;   end of the export process, and each time an element or an object
;;   has been converted.  It is the entry point to fine-tune standard
;;   output from back-end transcoders.

;; The core function is `org-export-as'.  It returns the transcoded
;; buffer as a string.

;; In order to derive an exporter out of this generic implementation,
;; one can define a transcode function for each element or object.
;; Such function should return a string for the corresponding element,
;; without any trailing space, or nil.  It must accept three
;; arguments:
;; 1. the element or object itself,
;; 2. its contents, or nil when it isn't recursive,
;; 3. the property list used as a communication channel.

;; If no such function is found, that element or object type will
;; simply be ignored, along with any separating blank line.  The same
;; will happen if the function returns the nil value.  If that
;; function returns the empty string, the type will be ignored, but
;; the blank lines will be kept.

;; Contents, when not nil, are stripped from any global indentation
;; (although the relative one is preserved).  They also always end
;; with a single newline character.

;; These functions must follow a strict naming convention:
;; `org-BACKEND-TYPE' where, obviously, BACKEND is the name of the
;; export back-end and TYPE the type of the element or object handled.

;; Moreover, two additional functions can be defined.  On the one
;; hand, `org-BACKEND-template' returns the final transcoded string,
;; and can be used to add a preamble and a postamble to document's
;; body.  It must accept two arguments: the transcoded string and the
;; property list containing export options.  On the other hand,
;; `org-BACKEND-plain-text', when defined, is to be called on every
;; text not recognized as an element or an object.  It must accept two
;; arguments: the text string and the information channel.

;; Any back-end can define its own variables.  Among them, those
;; customizables should belong to the `org-export-BACKEND' group.
;; Also, a special variable, `org-BACKEND-option-alist', allows to
;; define buffer keywords and "#+options:" items specific to that
;; back-end.  See `org-export-option-alist' for supported defaults and
;; syntax.

;; Tools for common tasks across back-ends are implemented in the
;; penultimate part of this file.  A dispatcher for standard back-ends
;; is provided in the last one.

;;; Code:
(eval-when-compile (require 'cl))
(require 'org-element)


;;; Internal Variables

;; Among internal variables, the most important is
;; `org-export-option-alist'.  This variable define the global export
;; options, shared between every exporter, and how they are acquired.

KEYWORD is a string representing a buffer keyword, or nil.
OPTION is a string that could be found in an #+OPTIONS: line.
DEFAULT is the default value for the property.
BEHAVIOUR determine how Org should handle multiple keywords for
the same property.  It is a symbol among:
  nil       Keep old value and discard the new one.
  t         Replace old value with the new one.
  `space'   Concatenate the values, separating them with a space.
  `newline' Concatenate the values, separating them with
	    a newline.
  `split'   Split values at white spaces, and cons them to the
	    previous list.

KEYWORD and OPTION have precedence over DEFAULT.

All these properties should be back-end agnostic.  For back-end
specific properties, define a similar variable named
`org-BACKEND-option-alist', replacing BACKEND with the name of
the appropriate back-end.  You can also redefine properties
there, as they have precedence over these.")

normally not needed.  For example, the following things will be
parsed as single sub- or superscripts.

 10^24   or   10^tau     several digits will be considered 1 item.
 10^-12  or   10^-tau    a leading sign with digits or a word

Still, ambiguity is possible - so when in doubt use {} to enclose
the sub/superscript.  If you set this variable to the symbol
`{}', the braces are *required* in order to trigger
interpretations as sub/superscript.  This can be helpful in
documents that need \"_\" frequently in plain text.

;;; The Communication Channel

;; During export process, every function has access to a number of
;; properties.  They are of three types:

;; 1. Export options are collected once at the very beginning of the
;;    process, out of the original buffer and environment.  The task
;;    is handled by `org-export-collect-options' function.
;;
;;    All export options are defined through the
;;    `org-export-option-alist' variable.
;;
;; 2. Persistent properties are stored in
;;    `org-export-persistent-properties' and available at every level
;;    of recursion. Their value is extracted directly from the parsed
;;    tree, and depends on export options (whole trees may be filtered
;;    out of the export process).
;;
;;    Properties belonging to that type are defined in the
;;    `org-export-persistent-properties-list' variable.
;;
;; 3. Every other property is considered local, and available at
;;    a precise level of recursion and below.

;; Managing properties during transcode process is mainly done with
;; `org-export-update-info'.  Even though they come from different
;; sources, the function transparently concatenates them in a single
;; property list passed as an argument to each transcode function.
;; Thus, during export, all necessary information is available through
;; that single property list, and the element or object itself.
;; Though, modifying a property will still require some special care,
;; and should be done with `org-export-set-property' instead of plain
;; `plist-put'.

;; Here is the full list of properties available during transcode
;; process, with their category (option, persistent or local), their
;; value type and the function updating them, when appropriate.

;; + `author' :: Author's name.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: string

;; + `back-end' :: Current back-end used for transcoding.
;;   - category :: persistent
;;   - type :: symbol

;; + `code-refs' :: Association list between reference name and real
;;                  labels in source code.  It is used to properly
;;                  resolve links inside source blocks.
;;   - category :: persistent
;;   - type :: alist (INT-OR-STRING . STRING)
;;   - update :: `org-export-handle-code'

;; + `creator' :: String to write as creation information.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: string

;; + `date' :: String to use as date.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: string

;; + `description' :: Description text for the current data.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: string

;; + `email' :: Author's email.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: string

;; + `exclude-tags' :: Tags for exclusion of subtrees from export
;;      process.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: list of strings

;; + `footnote-definition-alist' :: Alist between footnote labels and
;;     their definition, as parsed data.  Only non-inlined footnotes
;;     are represented in this alist.  Also, every definition isn't
;;     guaranteed to be referenced in the parse tree.  The purpose of
;;     this property is to preserve definitions from oblivion
;;     (i.e. when the parse tree comes from a part of the original
;;     buffer), it isn't meant for direct use in a back-end.  To
;;     retrieve a definition relative to a reference, use
;;     `org-export-get-footnote-definition' instead.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: alist (STRING . LIST)

;; + `footnote-seen-labels' :: List of already transcoded footnote
;;      labels.  It is used to know when a reference appears for the
;;      first time. (cf. `org-export-footnote-first-reference-p').
;;   - category :: persistent
;;   - type :: list of strings
;;   - update :: `org-export-update-info'

;; + `genealogy' :: Flat list of current object or element's parents
;;      from closest to farthest.
;;   - category :: local
;;   - type :: list of elements and objects
;;   - update :: `org-export-update-info'

;; + `headline-alist' :: Alist between headlines raw name and their
;;      boundaries.  It is used to resolve "fuzzy" links
;;      (cf. `org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link').
;;   - category :: persistent
;;   - type :: alist (STRING INTEGER INTEGER)

;; + `headline-levels' :: Maximum level being exported as an
;;      headline.  Comparison is done with the relative level of
;;      headlines in the parse tree, not necessarily with their
;;      actual level.
;;   - category :: option
;;   - type :: integer

;; + `headline-offset' :: Difference between relative and real level
;;      of headlines in the parse tree.  For example, a value of -1
;;      means a level 2 headline should be considered as level
;;      1 (cf. `org-export-get-relative-level').
;;   - category :: persistent
;;   - type :: integer

;; + `headline-numbering' :: Alist between headlines' beginning
;;      position and their numbering, as a list of numbers
;;      (cf. `org-export-get-headline-number').
;;   - category :: persistent
;;   - type :: alist (INTEGER . LIST)

;; + `included-files' :: List of files, with full path, included in
;;      the current buffer, through the "#+include:" keyword.  It is
;;      mainly used to verify that no infinite recursive inclusion
;;      happens.
;;   - category :: local
;;   - type :: list of strings

;; + `keywords' :: List of keywords attached to data.

;;;; Export Options

;; Export options come from five sources, in increasing precedence

;; - Global variables,
;; - External options provided at export time,
;; - Options keyword symbols,
;; - Buffer keywords,
;; - Subtree properties.

;; The central internal function with regards to export options is
;; `org-export-collect-options'.  It updates global variables with
;; "#+BIND:" keywords, then retrieve and prioritize properties from
;; the different sources.

;;  The internal functions doing the retrieval are:
;;  `org-export-parse-option-keyword' ,
;;  `org-export-get-subtree-options' ,
;;  `org-export-get-inbuffer-options' and
;;  `org-export-get-global-options'.
;;
;;  Some properties do not rely on the previous sources but still
;;  depend on the original buffer are taken care of in
;;  `org-export-initial-options'.

;; Also, `org-export-confirm-letbind' and `org-export-install-letbind'
;; take care of the part relative to "#+BIND:" keywords.

;;; The Transcoder

;; Though, this function is inapropriate for secondary strings, which
;; require a fresh copy of the plist passed as INFO argument.  Thus,

;; Internally, three functions handle the filtering of objects and
;; elements during the export.  More precisely, `org-export-skip-p'
;; determines if the considered object or element should be ignored
;; altogether, `org-export-interpret-p' tells which elements or

;;; The Filter System

;; Filters allow end-users to tweak easily the transcoded output.
;; They are the functional counterpart of hooks, as every filter in
;; a set is applied to the return value of the previous one.

;; Every set is back-end agnostic.  Although, a filter is always
;; called, in addition to the string it applies to, with the back-end
;; used as argument, so it's easy enough for the end-user to add
;; back-end specific filters in the set.

;; Filters sets are defined below. There are of four types:

;; - `org-export-filter-parse-tree-functions' applies directly on the
;;   complete parsed tree.  It's the only filters set that doesn't
;;   apply to a string.
;; - `org-export-filter-final-output-functions' applies to the final
;;   transcoded string.
;; - `org-export-filter-plain-text-functions' applies to any string
;;   not recognized as Org syntax.
;; - `org-export-filter-TYPE-functions' applies on the string returned
;;   after an element or object of type TYPE has been transcoded.

;; All filters sets are applied through
;; `org-export-filter-apply-functions' function.  Filters in a set are
;; applied in reverse order, that is in the order of consing.  It
;; allows developers to be reasonably sure that their filters will be
;; applied first.
