Introduction
The Library of Babel is an extensible collection of ready-made and
easily-shortcut-callable source-code blocks for handling common tasks.
Org-babel comes pre-populated with the source-code blocks located in this
file. It is possible to add source-code blocks from any org-mode file to
the library by calling (org-babel-lob-ingest "path/to/file.org")
.
This file is included in worg mainly less for viewing through the web interface, and more for contribution through the worg git repository. If you have code snippets that you think others may find useful please add them to this file and contribute them to worg.
The raw Org-mode text of this file can be downloaded at library-of-babel.org
Simple
A collection of simple utility functions:
input
File I/O
Reading and writing files
Read the contents of the file at file
. The :results vector
and
:results scalar
header arguments can be used to read the contents of
file as either a table or a string.
(if (string= format "csv")
(with-temp-buffer
(org-table-import (expand-file-name file) nil)
(org-table-to-lisp))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert-file-contents (expand-file-name file))
(buffer-string)))
Write data
to a file at file
. If data
is a list, then write it
as a table in traditional Org-mode table syntax.
(flet ((echo (r) (if (stringp r) r (format "%S" r))))
(with-temp-file file
(case (and (listp data)
(or ext (intern (file-name-extension file))))
('tsv (insert (orgtbl-to-tsv data '(:fmt echo))))
('csv (insert (orgtbl-to-csv data '(:fmt echo))))
(t (org-babel-insert-result data)))))
nil
Remote files
json
Read local or remote file in json format into emacs-lisp objects.
(require 'json)
(cond
(file
(with-temp-filebuffer file
(goto-char (point-min))
(json-read)))
(url
(require 'w3m)
(with-temp-buffer
(w3m-retrieve url)
(goto-char (point-min))
(json-read))))
Google docs
The following code blocks make use of the googlecl Google command line tool. This tool provides functionality for accessing Google services from the command line, and the following code blocks use googlecl for reading from and writing to Google docs with Org-mode code blocks.
The google
command seems to be throwing "Moved Temporarily" errors
when trying to download textual documents, but this is working fine
for spreadsheets.
(let* ((file (concat title "." format))
(cmd (format "google docs get --format %S --title %S" format title)))
(message cmd) (message (shell-command-to-string cmd))
(prog1 (if (string= format "csv")
(with-temp-buffer
(org-table-import (shell-quote-argument file) '(4))
(org-table-to-lisp))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert-file-contents (shell-quote-argument file))
(buffer-string)))
(delete-file file)))
For example, a line like the following can be used to read the
contents of a spreadsheet named num-cells
into a table.
#+call: gdoc-read(title="num-cells"")
A line like the following can be used to read the contents of a document as a string.
#+call: gdoc-read(title="loremi", :format "txt")
Write data
to a google document named title
. If data
is tabular
it will be saved to a spreadsheet, otherwise it will be saved as a
normal document.
(let* ((format (if (listp data) "csv" "txt"))
(tmp-file (make-temp-file "org-babel-google-doc" nil (concat "." format)))
(cmd (format "google docs upload --title %S %S" title tmp-file)))
(with-temp-file tmp-file
(insert
(if (listp data)
(orgtbl-to-csv
data '(:fmt (lambda (el) (if (stringp el) el (format "%S" el)))))
(if (stringp data) data (format "%S" data)))))
(message cmd)
(prog1 (shell-command-to-string cmd) (delete-file tmp-file)))
example usage
#+source: fibs #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var n=8 (flet ((fib (m) (if (< m 2) 1 (+ (fib (- m 1)) (fib (- m 2)))))) (mapcar (lambda (el) (list el (fib el))) (number-sequence 0 (- n 1)))) #+end_src #+call: gdoc-write(title="fibs", data=fibs(n=10))

Tables
LaTeX Table Export
booktabs
This source block can be used to wrap a table in the latex booktabs
environment. The source block adds a toprule
and bottomrule
(so
don't use hline
at the top or bottom of the table). The hline
after the header is replaced with a midrule
.
Note that this function bypasses the Org-mode LaTeX exporter and calls
orgtbl-to-generic
to create the output table. This means that the
entries in the table are not translated from Org-mode to LaTeX.
It takes the following arguments – all but the first two are optional.
arg | description |
---|---|
table | a reference to the table |
align | alignment string |
env | optional environment, default to "tabular" |
width | optional width specification string |

(if (equal 'hline (second table))
(concat (to-tab (list (first table)))
"\n\\midrule\n"
(to-tab (cddr table)))
(to-tab table))))))
longtable
This block can be used to wrap a table in the latex longtable
environment, it takes the following arguments – all but the first two
are optional.
arg | description |
---|---|
table | a reference to the table |
align | optional alignment string |
width | optional width specification string |
hline | the string to use as hline separator, defaults to "\\hline" |

(cons "head" (if head (concat head "\n\\endhead\n") ""))
(cons "foot" (if foot (concat foot "\n\\endfoot\n") ""))

(mapcar (lambda (el)

booktabs-notes
This source block builds on /tec/org-mode/src/commit/7e93b90f8816346a16ad49cee22870b17c05b211/contrib/babel/booktabs. It accepts two additional arguments, both of which are optional.
arg | description |
---|---|
notes | an org-mode table with footnotes |
lspace | if non-nil, insert addlinespace after bottomrule |
An example footnote to the arguments
table specifies the column
span. Note the use of LaTeX, rather than Org-mode, markup.

File-specific Version Control logging
This function will attempt to retrieve the entire commit log for the file associated with the current buffer and insert this log into the export. The function uses the Emacs VC commands to interface to the local version control system, but has only been tested to work with Git. 'limit' is currently unsupported.
