I've taken Sacha's excellent work on the port of Planner to Muse and
hacked it up a bit. Yann Hodique's patch was merged. I merged the
patches from planner-dev--1.0 up through patch-396, with some
exceptions.

Please refer to Sacha's planner--muse announcement at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.wiki.general/2195 to see what is
known to be working, her example setup, archive, and tarball.

Archive name: mwolson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Location: http://www.mwolson.org/archives/2005
Branch: planner-muse--mwolson--1.0
Tarball: http://www.mwolson.org/static/dist/planner-muse-latest.tar.gz

Setup
-----

In order to get it to work, you will need to do the following in your
.emacs file.

- Immediately after the (require 'planner) line, you need the
following code.

(unless (fboundp 'planner-update-wiki-project)
(defun planner-update-wiki-project ()
;; do nothing
)
(defvar planner-markup-tags nil))

I haven't figured out yet what should be done about this function and
variable, but things seem to work (for now) without them. The
"(unless ...)" wrapper ensures that the function and variable will not
be overwritten (i.e. when you use the normal version of Planner).

- After loading Muse, customize the `muse-project-alist' variable as
follows. If you already have Muse projects, this section can be
appended to the existing sections without trouble.

(setq muse-project-alist
'(("WikiPlanner" ;; use value of `planner-project'
("~/Plans" ;; where your Planner pages are located
:default "TaskPool" ;; use value of `planner-default-page'
:major-mode planner-mode
:visit-link planner-visit-link)

;; This next part is for specifying where Planner pages
;; should be published and what Muse publishing style to
;; use. In this example, we will use the XHTML publishing
;; style.

(:base "xhtml"
;; value of `planner-publishing-directory'
:path "~/public_html/Plans"))))

Here's an (untested) example of a multiple directory, multiple
publishing style entry.

(setq muse-project-alist
'(("Plans"
("~/Plans/near-term"
"~/Plans/far-term"
"~/Plans/older"
:default "index"
:major-mode planner-mode
:visit-link planner-visit-link)

;; pages from near-term and far-term get published to the
;; same directory (~/public_html/plans/) in XHTML form
(:base "xhtml"
:path "~/public_html/plans/"

;; this is a regexp that is matched against the path
;; to a Planner page
:include "/\((near\\|far\\)-term/"))

;; we could have also written:
;; :exclude "/older/"

;; pages from the older directory get published here with
;; HTML style
(:base "html"
:path "~/public_html/plans/older/"
:include "/older/"))))

What works
----------

- Task lists publish as lists.
- Buffer fontification seems to work.
- New tasks seem to create clickable links to other Planner pages.

What doesn't work
-----------------

- Note publishing
- Index generation
- Bare WikiNames (fontification or publishing)
- ".html" gets appended to the visible names of some links

Future plans for the port
-------------------------

I would like to keep committing changes to this port. I'm not sure if
I want it to be considered the official place for the Muse port of
Planner. It would be nice to co-maintain this, and I hope that it is
useful to Sacha in her effort to port Planner.

I've attached the relevant ChangeLog entries since it describes the
progress of the port somewhat and lists the patches that did not go
through.

I hope to do more research on what it would take to get Wiki support
for Muse. In particular, I wonder if an emacs-wiki minor mode would
be useful, or if I should just port the publishing code of emacs-wiki
to Muse.

2005-05-22 06:02:41 GMT Michael Olson <mwolson@xxxxxxx> patch-5

Summary:
Make generated lists publish correctly.
Revision:
planner-muse--mwolson--1.0--patch-5

* planner.el (planner-notes-tag, planner-markup-task): Print space before
the dash when composing a list entry.

modified files:
ChangeLog planner.el


2005-05-22 01:00:43 GMT Michael Olson <mwolson@xxxxxxx> patch-4

Summary:
Cause task IDs to be colored.
Revision:
planner-muse--mwolson--1.0--patch-4

* planner-id.el (planner-id-setup): Since we append values to
`muse-colors-buffer-hook' in the `planner-setup-highlighting' function,
do so here as well. Otherwise `planner-id-markup' never gets called.
I think the `run-hook-with-args' function in Emacs CVS may have a bug.

* planner-appt.el (planner-appt-font-setup): Ditto.

ChangeLog planner-appt.el planner-id.el


2005-05-21 04:54:07 GMT Michael Olson <mwolson@xxxxxxx> patch-3

Summary:
Merge massively from sacha/367 to sacha/396, with some omissions.
Revision:
planner-muse--mwolson--1.0--patch-3

I ran "tla changes emacs-wiki--dev--1.0--patch-366" while in the
directory containing the emacs-wiki--dev--1.0 tree so that I could get a
cumulative patch of all the changes from patch-366 to the present. I
merged in as much as I could.

It seemed that the file permissions changed to 644 recently for files in
the planner archive, so I followed suit.

It is hoped that this effort will help Sacha keep the Muse port of
Planner current :^) . I haven't yet tested these changes; I should do
that soon.

Patches that did not (fully) apply:

* patch-384 [Improve support for putting files in subdirectories]:
(planner-list-daily-files): This version was significantly different
in the Muse version, so I wasn't sure whether or not the fix was
applicable.

(planner-extract-tasks): Ditto.

(planner-search-notes-internal): Ditto.

(planner-past-notes-tag): This one applied cleanly.

* patch-392, patch-393, patch-394, patch-395: I applied the
documentation fixes.

(planner-list-unfinished-tasks, planner-file-alist,
planner-search-internal, planner-list-tasks-with-status): The
cumulative patch did not apply cleanly, so these functions were left
unaltered.

(planner-past-notes-tag): The changes for this applied correctly.
