25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; This file implements globally unique identifiers for Org-mode entries.
28 ;; Identifiers are stored in the entry as an :ID: property. Functions
29 ;; are provided that create and retrieve such identifiers, and that find
30 ;; entries based on the identifier.
32 ;; Identifiers consist of a prefix (default "Org" given by the variable
33 ;; `org-id-prefix') and a unique part that can be created by a number
34 ;; of different methods, see the variable `org-id-method'.
35 ;; Org has a builtin method that uses a compact encoding of the creation
36 ;; time of the ID, with microsecond accuracy. This virtually
37 ;; guarantees globally unique identifiers, even if several people are
38 ;; creating IDs at the same time in files that will eventually be used
39 ;; together.
41 ;; By default Org uses UUIDs as global unique identifiers.
43 ;; This file defines the following API:
45 ;; org-id-get-create
46 ;; Create an ID for the entry at point if it does not yet have one.
47 ;; Returns the ID (old or new). This function can be used
48 ;; interactively, with prefix argument the creation of a new ID is
49 ;; forced, even if there was an old one.
51 ;; org-id-get
52 ;; Get the ID property of an entry. Using appropriate arguments
53 ;; to the function, it can also create the ID for this entry.
55 ;; org-id-goto
56 ;; Command to go to a specific ID, this command can be used
57 ;; interactively.
59 ;; org-id-get-with-outline-path-completion
60 ;; Retrieve the ID of an entry, using outline path completion.
61 ;; This function can work for multiple files.
63 ;; org-id-get-with-outline-drilling
64 ;; Retrieve the ID of an entry, using outline path completion.
65 ;; This function only works for the current file.
67 ;; org-id-find
68 ;; Find the location of an entry with specific id.
