org-export: Allow user to explicitely ignore parts of parse tree
* contrib/lisp/org-export.el (org-export-collect-tree-properties):
Do not overwrite any user's ignore list.
* testing/contrib/lisp/test-org-export.el: Add test.
A good way to populate `:ignore-list' is through the use of
`org-export-filter-parse-tree-functions', with the help of
`org-element-map' and `org-export-ignore-element'. As an example, the
following code will skip every headline containing the word "note"
in its title during a LaTeX export:
(defun user-skip-note-headlines (data backend info)
;; For now LaTeX back-end is called `e-latex'.
(when (eq backend 'test)
;; Traverse the parse tree, adding to ignore list any headline
;; matching criteria.
(org-element-map
data 'headline
(lambda (headline)
(when (string-match "\\<note\\>"
(org-element-property :raw-value headline))
(org-export-ignore-element headline info)))
info))
;; Return original DATA.
data)
Then install it in parse-tree filters:
(add-to-list 'user-skip-note-headlines org-export-filter-parse-tree-functions)
Back-end delevopers will install it via `org-BACKEND-filters-alist'
where BACKEND stands for the name of the back-end considered. Se
`org-export-filters-alist' for more information.
