| ;; This package is inspired by a blog post I published about a year | ||||
| ;; before I decided to write this package [1], which in turn is | ||||
| ;; largely inspired by another blog post [2]. | ||||
| ;; org-unique-id is a utility package for org-mode users that are | ||||
| ;; tired dealing with random org IDs for their headers’ anchor that | ||||
| ;; change on each org to HTML exports among others.  This package | ||||
| ;; creates meaningful custom IDs for org headers that won’t change | ||||
| ;; unless the user modifies or removes them manually. | ||||
| ;; | ||||
| ;; It will generate a unique ID for each headers in an org file based | ||||
| ;; on the headers’ name plus a random short string in order to be sure | ||||
| ;; to make it unique.  This ID will be inserted in each header’s | ||||
| ;; properties as a custom ID. | ||||
| ;; In order to be enabled, this package’s `org-unique-id-maybe' | ||||
| ;; function must be hooked to `before-save-hook', and the string | ||||
| ;; \\='auto-id:t\\=' must be present in an \\='#+OPTIONS:\\=' line in | ||||
| ;; the buffer. | ||||

| ;; [1] https://blog.phundrak.com/better-custom-ids-orgmode/ | ||||
| ;; [2] https://writequit.org/articles/emacs-org-mode-generate-ids.html | ||||
| ;; If the \\='auto-id:t\\=' string is found, then it will create a | ||||
| ;; slug of the current header (and if there are, its parent headers) | ||||
| ;; and it will add a unique string suffix generated with a UUID | ||||
| ;; generator to ensure all IDs are unique. | ||||
| ;; | ||||
| ;; Here is an example of an org-mode file without the | ||||
| ;; \\='auto-id:t\\=' option after save: | ||||
| ;; | ||||
| ;;     #+title: Test file | ||||
| ;;     * Test level 1 | ||||
| ;;     ** Test level 2 | ||||
| ;;     * Test level 1 | ||||
| ;; | ||||
| ;; And here is the same org-mode file but with the option atop its | ||||
| ;; content: | ||||
| ;; | ||||
| ;;     ,#+title: Test file | ||||
| ;;     ,#+options: unique-id:t | ||||
| ;;     ,* Test level 1 | ||||
| ;;     :PROPERTIES: | ||||
| ;;     :CUSTOM_ID: Test-level-1-zmb40t305kj0 | ||||
| ;;     :END: | ||||
| ;;     ,** Test level 2 | ||||
| ;;     :PROPERTIES: | ||||
| ;;     :CUSTOM_ID: Test-level-1-Test-level-2-spn40t305kj0 | ||||
| ;;     :END: | ||||
| ;;     ,* Test level 1 | ||||
| ;;     :PROPERTIES: | ||||
| ;;     :CUSTOM_ID: Test-level-1-1nx40t305kj0 | ||||
| ;;     :END: | ||||
| ;; | ||||
| ;; Of course the last part of the custom ID might differ for you, but | ||||
| ;; once it is generated, org-unique-id will not modify it or | ||||
| ;; regenerate it unless you delete it yourself, hence ensuring a | ||||
| ;; constant ID for your org exports. | ||||
