Browsing to original article in gwene?

Browsing to original article in gwene?

[Haider Rizvi]

I am starting to use gwene using gnus. I am looking for a simple key
binding (like the <ret> key) that will let me open the original
article in a browser. The url is there in the Archived-at
header. 

Looked around the web to see if it was discussed somewhere but didn't
find any relevant discussions.

For the nnrss groups, I have the browse-nnrss-url defined as per the
manual, and bound to <ret> key. Something similar (or may be <ret>
in this context) can be used?

I don't think there's anything set up by default, but it wouldn't be
hard to record a macro to do this.

From a Gwene summary buffer, the sequence would be:

C-u g		(to open the raw article)
s ived-a RET	(to isearch to the Archived-At: header line and leave
		point there)
M-x browse-url

It would also be pretty trivial as a proper Lisp function.

Hope that helped!

Oops, I forgot that RET returns to the summary line, not to the line in
the article, so your macro would need to switch buffers as well...

Something like this?

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-gnus-browse-gwene ()
"Start a browser for current gwene article"
  (interactive)
  (dolist (buf (buffer-list))
    (with-current-buffer buf
      (when (eq major-mode 'gnus-article-mode)
	(gnus-summary-show-article '(4))
	(switch-to-buffer buf)
	(goto-char (point-min))
	(re-search-forward "^Archived-at: <\\(.*\\)>$")
	(browse-url (match-string 1))
	(gnus-summary-show-article)))))
#+end_src

Thanks Memnon and William. I find that "pretty trivial Lisp" for
others turns out to be not so for me :-) The function Memnon provided
works perfectly.

For now, I have mapped browse-nnrss-url and my-gnus-browse-gwene to
separate keys, but really they do the same job for nnrss and
nntp:gwene (and gmane) groups. So I need to find a trivial wrapper
function that'll do that for me, and assing one key to that wrapper.

I modified that function a tiny bit to make sure it doesn't throw an
error if an invalid buffer shows up in the list, and so it doesn't leave
the article unformatted if it can't find the archive-at header. It now
looks like this:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-gnus-browse-gwene ()
"Start a browser for current gwene article"
  (interactive)
  (dolist (buf (buffer-list))
    (when (buffer-live-p buf)
      (with-current-buffer buf
        (when (eq major-mode 'gnus-article-mode)
          (gnus-summary-show-article '(4))
          (switch-to-buffer buf)
          (goto-char (point-min))
          (when (re-search-forward "^Archived-at: <\\(.*\\)>$" (point-max) t)
            (browse-url (match-string 1)))
          (gnus-summary-show-article))))))
#+end_src

I added the following to my gnus-summary-mode-hook to bind ctrl+enter to
run the function in gwene/gmane summary buffers, and unbind it otherwise
(this is not strictly necessary, but I figured I might want to use
ctrl+enter for something else in other buffers at some point...):

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(if (string-match "g\\(we\\|ma\\)ne" (buffer-name))
  (local-set-key [(control return)] 'my-gnus-browse-gwene)
  (local-unset-key [(control return)]))
#+end_src

AFAIK, Archived-at is not specific to Gwene.

This might get the wrong article if `gnus-single-article-buffer' is
nil.

>           (gnus-summary-show-article '(4))

Use `gnus-original-article-buffer' ...

... and `with-current-buffer'.

There is `gnus-fetch-field'.

>           (gnus-summary-show-article))))))
> #+end_src

I'd suggest something like this:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun rs-gnus-browse-archived-at ()
  "Browse \"Archived-at\" URL of the current article."
  (interactive)
  (let (url)
    (with-current-buffer gnus-original-article-buffer
      (setq url (gnus-fetch-field "Archived-at")))
    (if (not (stringp url))
	(gnus-message 1 "No \"Archived-at\" header found.")
      (setq url (gnus-replace-in-string url "^<\\|>$" ""))
      (browse-url url))))
#+end_src

Probably it should be expanded to handle process marked articles etc.

Bye, Reiner.

Note that gnus has this handy macro `gnus-with-article-buffer' that lets
you do away with the whole buffer-list loop:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-gnus-browse-gwene ()
  "Start a browser for current gwene article"
  (interactive)
  (gnus-summary-show-article '(4))
  (let ((url
	 (gnus-with-article-buffer
	   (goto-char (point-min))
	   (when (re-search-forward "^Archived-at: <\\(.*\\)>$" (point-max) 'noerror)
	     (match-string 1)))))
    (gnus-summary-show-article)
    (if url
	(browse-url url)
      (message "Couldn't find any likely url"))))
#+end_src


Of course, if gnus had an even handier macro like

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defmacro gnus-with-raw-article-buffer (&rest forms)
  `(progn
     (gnus-summary-show-article '(4))
     (prog1 (gnus-with-article-buffer ,@forms)
       (gnus-summary-show-article))))
#+end_src

then you could simplify that even further to 

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-gnus-browse-gwene ()
  "Start a browser for current gwene article"
  (interactive)
  (let ((url
	 (gnus-with-raw-article-buffer
	   (goto-char (point-min))
	   (when (re-search-forward "^Archived-at: <\\(.*\\)>$" (point-max) 'noerror)
	     (match-string 1)))))
    (if url
	(browse-url url)
      (message "Couldn't find any likely url"))))
#+end_src

Doh, Reiner Steib found the better solution with
gnus-original-article-buffer :-)

I have only seen it in gmane and gwene newsgroups. May be it exists
elsewhere as well.

Thanks to all for the helpful hints / code. I have now set a key ';'
to the following defun, which takes me to the original article in any
of nnrss, gwene and gmane groups, exactly what I wanted: 

(defun my-gnus-browse (arg)
  (interactive "p")
;  (cond ((string-match ":\(gwene\|gmane\)\." (car gnus-article-current))
  (cond ((string-match ":gwene\." (car gnus-article-current))
	  (rs-gnus-browse-archived-at))
        ((string-match ":gmane\." (car gnus-article-current))
         (rs-gnus-browse-archived-at))
	((string-match "^nnrss\." (car gnus-article-current))
	  (browse-nnrss-url arg))))

The above commented regexp is a mystery to me, it seems correct and
matches when I run it manually on (car gnus-article-current).

Never mind, it just needed some more backslashes.

  (cond ((string-match ":\\(gwene\\|gmane\\)\\." (car gnus-article-current))
