How to captrue project note info in two step like this?

[coppercu]

Hi,
I'd like to add an org file to echo of projects, like "note.org"

Show projects in minibuffer when call a command like org-projectile-project-todo-completing-read

[org-projectile] Record TODO for project: {org-projectile | emacs | ...}

After select project, A new buffer to show and select template like org-capture

Select a capture template
=========================

[t] Task
[n] Note
[i] Idaa

Anyone have any idea on how to do this?

(defun org-projectile-select-capture-template ()
  (interactive)
  (occ-capture
   (make-instance 'occ-context
                  :category (projectile-completing-read
                             "Record TODO for project: "
                             (occ-get-categories org-projectile-strategy))
                  :template (org-capture-select-template)
                  :strategy org-projectile-strategy
                  :options nil)))

This almost works, except that the return value for (org-capture-select-template) is not correct. This is because what is expected here is actually a string template rather than an actual capture template which is a lisp value. Capture template in all of their generality are not really supported by org-projectile, since org-projectile is doing a lot of the work (selecting where to put things) that the capture template would do.

Basically to fix this, just replace (org-capture-select-template) with a function tha prompts for and actually returns string capture templates for whatever you want to do.

Thank you for your reply !

I am add this code to org-projectile.el and call this command in emacs, All is works well until enter keyword [n], and report error in minibuffer like this

org-capture-put: Wrong type argument: char-or-string-p, ("n" "Note" entry (file+olp+datetree "~/note/note.org") "* %?
 %U
 %i
  %a")

Just like you reminded before.

I am try to write a funciton to do this, Because elisp is too hard for me, it will take a long time。

if you paste string versions of the capture templates you want here i can show you.

Thank you very much!

My org-capture-templates is set like this

(setq org-capture-templates
	  '(("t" "Task" entry (file+olp "~/note/note.org" "Task")
		 "* %?\n %U\n %i\n  %a")
		("n" "Note" entry (file+olp "~/note/note.org" "Note")
		 "* %?\n %U\n %i\n  %a")
		("g" "Gate" entry (file+olp "~/note/note.org" "Gate")
		 "* %?\n %U\n %i\n  %a")
		))

and "~/note/note.org" is record like this

* Note
** test note
  [2020-04-16 Thursday 14:05]
* Gate
** test gate
  [2020-04-16 Thursday 14:05]
* Task
** test task
  [2020-04-16 Thursday 14:05]

And what i expect now is the note.org file is not only in one "~/note/note.org" but in every project's root note.org file

I found a way to implement config as mentioned before, which is ugry, but what just i need

(setq org-capture-templates
	  '(("t" "Task" entry (file+headline (lambda ()
										   (concat (org-projectile-location-for-project
													(projectile-completing-read "Capture task for project:"
																				(occ-get-categories org-projectile-strategy))) "note/note.org")) "Tasks")
		 "* TODO %?\n %U\n %i\n  %a")
		("n" "Note" entry (file+headline (lambda ()
										   (concat (org-projectile-location-for-project
													(projectile-completing-read "Capture note for project:"
																				(occ-get-categories org-projectile-strategy))) "note/note.org")) "Notes")
		 "* %?\n %U\n %i\n  %a")
		("g" "Gate" entry (file+headline (lambda ()
										   (concat (org-projectile-location-for-project
													(projectile-completing-read "Capture gate for project:"
																				(occ-get-categories org-projectile-strategy))) "note/note.org")) "Gates")
		 "* %?\n %U\n %i\n  %a")))
