Starter Kit G-Client

This is part of the Emacs Starter Kit.

G-Client is part of T.V. Raman’s emacspeak package which provides for interaction with Google services (e.g., google-docs, google-calendar) from within Emacs.

Installation

  1. Grab the latest version of G-Client by running the following in this directory.
    cd src/
    svn co http://emacspeak.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/lisp/g-client/
        
  2. The in the g-client directory run the following commands to build the package.
    cd src/g-client
    make
        
  3. Add the g-client directory to the load path, and load the package
    (add-to-list 'load-path
                 (expand-file-name
                  "g-client"
                  (expand-file-name
                   "src"
                   (file-name-directory
                    (or load-file-name (buffer-file-name))))))
    (load-library "g")
        
  4. Finally, in the current version of g-client one small change to the code is required. In the definition `gdocs-publish-from-org’ the call to the `org-export-region-as-html’ function should be changed from
    (org-export-region-as-html (point-min) (point-max)
                               nil g-scratch-buffer)
        

    to

    (org-export-region-as-html (point-min) (point-max)
                               'body-only g-scratch-buffer)
        

    so that the exported html only includes the body of the html document. The header information generated by Org-mode seems to confuse google documents.

Usage

Usage is as simple as
  1. add g-client to your load path
    (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name
                             "g-client" (expand-file-name "src" starter-kit-dir)))
        
  2. load g-client
    (load-library "g")
        
  3. sign into google documents with M-x gdocs-sign-in
  4. open an Emacs buffer which you would like to post to google docs
  5. publish the buffer with `gdocs-publish-from-text’
