Publish Org Mode file to Write.as

Logo Emacs

Recently, I discovered WriteFreely.el, an Emacs extension to publish and update Org-mode files as posts on any WriteFreely instance (such as Write.as, as the default instance).

So I decided to give it a try and I added those lines to my Emacs configuration file :

(setq epa-pinentry-mode 'loopback)
(use-package writefreely
  :ensure t
  :hook org-mode
  :config (load (expand-file-name "writefreely-auth-token.el.gpg" user-emacs-directory)))

The writefreely-auth-token.el.gpg file contains the token which allows writefreely.el to publish on my behalf. Here is its content :

;;; -*- epa-file-encrypt-to: ("e-mail address used to generate the key") -*-

(setq writefreely-auth-token "my-token-I-should-keep-secret")

I encrypted this file thanks to instructions found on masteringemacs.org. (It was the opportunity to generate my GnuPG key!)

Disclamer : this article was originally written in Org Mode with Emacs ;–)
