** TODO [#A] Add ~:auto~ keyword to ~(planning)~ predicate
It should act like ~(or (deadline auto) (scheduled :to today))~.
** TODO [#A] Document sorters
Note that the built-in sorting only works on Org elements, which is the default ~:action~. So if a different action is used, sorting will not work. In that case, the action should be mapped across the Org element results from outside the ~org-ql~ form.
** TODO [#A] Org block to insert results of queries with links to entries
[2020-01-16 Thu 06:20] This idea just came to me when I was thinking about using the search-based paradigm vs. outline-based. This would allow both, e.g. some kind of =#+BEGIN_QUERY= block that would update when =C-c C-c= is pressed on it.
** TODO [#A] Change ~(deadline)~'s ~auto~ argument to ~:auto~ and/or ~:auto t~
For consistency, because plain ~auto~ looks like a variable, and even though it's in a quoted form, it could be confusing.
** TODO [#A] Save views to dynamic blocks
[2020-11-10 Tue 04:31] A command would save users from having to write out the dynamic block manually.
** TODO [#A] Consider how to "secure" searches from links and dynamic blocks
Theoretically one could put a sexp-based query into a link that would run arbitrary code to do something evil. Like:
[[org-ql-search:(message "AHA")]]
That's very unlikely to be abused, but it would be good to protect against it. Two possibilities:
1. For sexp-based queries in links and dynamic blocks, prompt for confirmation before running.
2. Use a special variable to control whether lambdas and arbitrary sexps are allowed in queries, and disable it for links and dynamic blocks. (That might be difficult to do, since they could be buried in an ~and~ or something. A whitelist approach might be needed.)
** TODO [#B] Outline path in buffers-files arg
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: 6935361a-9e1d-48ec-8d17-876a90b90f50
:END:
e.g.
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(org-ql (olp "~/org/inbox.org" "Emacs" "Ideas")
(todo "NEXT"))
#+END_SRC
Also, should support an ~id~ one.
** TODO [#B] Add more sorters?
+ [ ] =category=
+ [ ] Any date :: e.g. it would search for timestamps (active/inactive?) anywhere in an entry
** TODO [#B] Default sort
Would probably be useful to have a default sort option.
** TODO [#B] Partial match for property queries
e.g. something like [[https://200ok.ch/posts/2020-02-09_creating_org_mode_sparse_trees_in_emacs_and_organice.html][Organice has now]].
[2020-02-13 Thu 00:42] Something is needed to help search property values by partial matches. For example:
#+BEGIN_SRC org
,* [[https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes][org-html-themes: Framework including two themes, Bigblow and ReadTheOrg]]
:PROPERTIES:
:author: Fabrice Niessen
:END:
#+END_SRC
Searching that with a query like =property:author=Fabrice= returns nothing; the full value must be used, like ~property:author="Fabrice Niessen"~. It should be possible to do something like ~property:author=~Fabrice~ to search for partial matches.
** TODO [#C] [[https://github.com/magit/transient/issues/76][New Transient transient-lisp-variable class]]
[2020-10-19 Mon 00:23] Should try to use this instead of whatever bespoke code is currently used.
** TODO [#C] Normalize queries
[2019-07-16 Tue 11:49] This serves two purposes:
1. Equivalent queries will return the same results from the cache.
2. The selectors that can be converted to the fastest preamble regexps will be sorted first, so the fastest preamble will be used. Although this may not always be straightforward. For example, in a file with only a few =TODO= items, the ~(todo "TODO")~ selector would convert to a preamble that would quickly search through the file. But if there were a thousand =TODO= items, it wouldn't be as much of a benefit, and a ~(regexp "something")~ selector's preamble might be much faster, depending on how many times =something= appears in the file.
So the second purpose might actually be a drawback, because it would prevent users from optimizing their queries with knowledge of their data. Maybe there should be an option to not normalize queries, so advanced users can order their selectors manually.
** TODO [#C] Update view screenshots
e.g. doesn't currently show the =View= header.
** TODO [#C] ~org-agenda-skip-function~
As discussed [[https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/cnrt2d/orgqlblock_integrates_orgql_into_org_agenda/ewi1q36/][here]], this is a cool feature that allows further integration into existing custom agenda commands. Example:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
;;; lima-0ac22.el --- -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
(defun org-ql-skip-function (query)
"Return a function for `org-agenda-skip-function' for QUERY.
Compared to using QUERY in `org-ql', this effectively turns QUERY
into (not QUERY)."
(let* ((predicate (org-ql--query-predicate '(regexp "ryo-modal"))))
(lambda ()
;; This duplicates the functionality of `org-ql--select'.
(let (orig-fns)
(--each org-ql-predicates
;; Save original function mappings.
(let ((name (plist-get it :name)))
(push (list :name name :fn (symbol-function name)) orig-fns)))
(unwind-protect
(progn
(--each org-ql-predicates
;; Set predicate functions.
(fset (plist-get it :name) (plist-get it :fn)))
;; Run query.
;; FIXME: "If this function returns nil, the current match should not be skipped.
;; Otherwise, the function must return a position from where the search
;; should be continued."
(funcall predicate))
(--each orig-fns
;; Restore original function mappings.
(fset (plist-get it :name) (plist-get it :fn))))))))
(let ((org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("z" "Z"
((tags-todo "PRIORITY=\"A\"+Emacs/!SOMEDAY"))
((org-agenda-skip-function (org-ql-skip-function '(regexp "ryo-modal")))))
((org-agenda-files ("~/org/inbox.org"))))))
(org-agenda nil "z"))
#+END_SRC
I should benchmark it to see how much difference it makes, because all those ~fset~ calls on each heading isn't free. But if a macro were used to rewrite the built-in predicates to their full versions, all of that could be avoided...
** TODO [#C] Test caching
See notes on 1dce9467f25428b5289d3665cd840820969ed65a. It would be good to test the caching explicitly, at least for some queries, because if I were to completely break it again, in such a way that results were stored but retrieval always failed, the tests wouldn't catch it.
** TODO [#C] Update commentary
** UNDERWAY [#A] Tools for saving queries and accessing them [3/4]

[2020-11-08 Sun 22:59] Let's try a very simple implementation so I could write a link like this to search the current buffer:
#+BEGIN_SRC org

#+END_SRC
[2020-11-08 Sun 23:22] Seems to work!
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp :results silent

(defun org-ql-search--link-store ()
"Store a link to current Org QL query."
;; TODO: When we have an org-ql-view-mode, test it here instead of org-ql-view-query.

:link (concat "org-ql-search:" (org-ql-view--format-query org-ql-view-query))
:description org-ql-view-title)
t))
#+END_SRC

** UNDERWAY [#A] Outline path predicate
[2019-10-07 Mon 11:15] There are two potential types of matching on outline paths: matching on any part of the outline path, and matching a specific path. For example, with this file:
#+BEGIN_SRC org
,* Food
,** Fruits
,*** Blueberries
,*** Grapes
,** Vegetables
,*** Carrots
,*** Potatoes
#+END_SRC
Matching could work like this:
+ ~(outline "Food")~ :: Would return all nodes.
+ ~(outline "Fruits")~ :: Would return all fruits.
Matching at a specific path would be something like:
+ ~(outline-path "Food" "Fruits")~ :: Would return all fruits. But if there were another =Fruits= heading somewhere in the file, under a different outline path, it would not return its nodes.
I'm not sure the second type of matching belongs in predicates, but rather in [[id:6935361a-9e1d-48ec-8d17-876a90b90f50][this]].
To implement this with good performance probably needs an outline-path cache. I can probably repurpose the tags caching, but maybe it should be generalized.
[2019-10-07 Mon 13:09] This is basically done with =be2bf6df316b96b3ed56851b8ffe0e227796b621= and =be2bf6df316b96b3ed56851b8ffe0e227796b621=, but not the specific-path matching. I left a =MAYBE= in the code about "anchored" path matching, which would accomplish that.
** UNDERWAY [#B] Recursive queries
For lack of a better term. A way to query for certain headings, and then gather results of a different query at each result of the first query, displaying all results in a single view.
This works pretty well. It needs polishing, and some refactoring so items can be indented completely (rather than leaving the keyword unindented, as it is now).

[2019-09-26 Thu 21:28] Would probably make sense to implement this using the view-sections someday.
** UNDERWAY [#B] "Node" caching
[2019-09-05 Thu 12:30] At each node checked by a predicate, make a struct that stores attributes we can query for, as well as parent node position. This would let us speed up ancestor-based queries, like =(ancestor (todo "WAITING"))=. Ideally it would also serve as the tag hierarchy cache.
It would probably be an all-encompassing system, because predicates would need to refer to the cached node when available. So maybe the struct should be like =ts-defstruct=, with lazy, caching accessors, which would move some of the predicates' code into the accessors.
Maybe a good improvement to make later, after the project is more developed.
[2019-10-07 Mon 13:08] This has basically been implemented in =be2bf6df316b96b3ed56851b8ffe0e227796b621=, but as functions and values rather than with structs. It remains to be seen how this works with =ancestor= queries, but I suspect it will help a lot.
*** Struct PoC code
This works okay (except the priority accessor needs to be fixed, because Org priorities are awkward to get). I'm guessing all the extra function calls would make it undesirable in cases of returning many results, but it's a flexible concept that makes sorting easy.

Also, unless NO-AND is non-nil (interactively, with prefix), all

because a query must be a sexp, so when typing multiple clauses,
either (and) or (or) would be required around them, and (and) is
typically more useful, because it narrows down results.
For example, this raw input:

** UNDERWAY [#B] Implement view with tabulated-list-mode or magit-section
[2019-09-02 Mon 05:20] Especially with some of the new packages that make =tabulated-list-mode= easier to use, like =navigel=. However, it would probably break grouping, or require some kind of adapter or extension to do grouping, so I don't know if that would work. Something like =magit-section= would be more flexible, and could be recursively grouped, like in =magit-todos=.
[2019-09-08 Sun 10:06] Came up with a prototype yesterday, in branch =wip/view-section=. Seems to work pretty well.
One of the things in that branch is =org-ql-item=, which is a struct used to carry data for query results. It seems to work well.
Another idea for it is to simply store the element from =org-element-headline-parser= in one of its slots, and populate all of the other slots lazily, like =ts=. It already does that for a couple of slots, but I think it makes sense to do it for all of them, to reduce the overhead of making the struct for every query result.
*** MAYBE [#C] Experiment with =widget=
The code that powers the customization UI. Has collapsible and customizable widgets. Might be perfect. Might even enable editing items in the list, with functions to make the changes in the source buffers.
*** Code idea
Inserting items into a view could look something like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(org-ql-view--insert-items
:header (ts-format "%Y-%m-%d" (ts-now))
:items (org-ql-query
:select #'org-ql-current-item
:from (org-agenda-files)
:where '(or (deadline auto)
(scheduled :on today)
(ts-active :on today)))
:group-by '(org-ql-item-priority
org-ql-item-todo))
#+END_SRC
Items would be structs, and the =group-by= argument would be a list of accessors, like how =magit-todos= works. Arbitrary functions could also be passed to =group-by=, as whatever value the function returns is used to group them. =org-ql-current-item= would be a function that turns the result of =org-element-headline-parser= into the struct.
Not sure if it should automatically add the number of items to the header, or if that should be done manually.
*** Prior art
**** [[https://github.com/m2ym/direx-el][GitHub - m2ym/direx-el: Directory Explorer for GNU Emacs]]
Appears to be another implementation of magit-section-like expandable sections. Not sure which came first. Its code seems like it may be helpful.
**** magit-section
** MAYBE [#C] Overlay-based caching inspired by org-num-mode
[2019-12-30 Mon 22:42] Newer versions of Org have =org-num-mode=, which uses =font-lock= and =after-change-functions= to update overlays in the buffer with outline numbering. Maybe a similar approach could be used to cache arbitrary values for headings in a buffer without having to discard the whole buffer's cache when the buffer changes.
[2020-11-09 Mon 01:51] I feel like that's probably unlikely to work well. I imagine it would require storing the query at every heading, which would be very wasteful. As well, adding more overlays to an Org buffer is probably not a good idea, because there are already enough of those.
However, there might still be a useful idea here somewhere...
** MAYBE [#C] Alternative parsing libraries
+ e.g. Bovine and Wisent come with Emacs, which would allow us to drop the =peg= dependency (which doesn't use lexical binding).
+ [[https://github.com/cute-jumper/parsec.el][parsec]] is third-party, but looks powerful
** MAYBE [#C] Fancier searching for inherited tags
When tag inheritance is enabled, and the given tags aren't file-level tags, we could search directly to headings containing the matching tags, and then only do per-heading matching on the subtrees. Sometimes that would be much faster. However, that might make the logic special-cased and complicated. Might need a redesign of the whole matching/predicate system to do cleanly.

[2020-11-09 Mon 17:57] Well, the performance difference seems smaller than I expected. For single iterations, it ought to be unnoticeable. Although I'm still a bit skeptical about this benchmark: I feel like it ought to have more of an impact than that, but maybe I'm wrong--and that would be great!
Next steps:
+ [X] Post benchmark code on PR and ask Panagiotis to verify
+ [X] Also ask him to run benchmark actually using group tags (since I don't actually have any, even though the boolean is t)
+ [X] Discuss caching of group tag expansion. It seems like we ought to cache the expansions as well, because sibling headings (especially at level 1) ought to get their group tags re-expanded individually, even when we've already expanded them for another heading.

[2019-09-12 Thu 12:56] Lisp is so much easier to deal with, but some people don't like parentheses. So I'm trying to add a non-Lisp-style query syntax. It gets complicated. The =peg= library helps, but its documentation is sparse and incomplete. This seems to work fairly well for single-token queries, but I'm not sure if I can or should cram it all into one parser, or use separate ones for certain keywords.

I don't know where the =t= is coming from.
The next step is to make it work with multi-token queries. It needs to handle all of the tokens in one parser so it can handle quoted phrases (if we split on spaces, it would split quoted phrases). But that makes getting the arguments out of it more difficult. Probably need to do something like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(-let* ((input "todo:check|someday")
(input "tags:universe+space")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"")
(input "")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"+another")
combinator
(parsed (peg-parse-string ((query (+ (or (and predicate `(pred args -- (list :predicate pred :args args)))
(and plain-string `(s -- (list :predicate 'regexp :args s))))
(opt (syntax-class whitespace))))
(plain-string (substring (+ (not (syntax-class whitespace)) (any))))
(predicate (substring keyword) ":" (opt args))
(keyword (or "heading" "tags" "todo" "property"))
(args (+ (and (or quoted-arg unquoted-arg) (opt separator))))
(quoted-arg "\"" unquoted-arg "\"")
(unquoted-arg (substring (+ (not (or separator "\"")) (any))))
(separator (or (and "|" (action (setf combinator 'or)))
(and "+" (action (setf combinator 'and)))
(and ":" (action (setf combinator 'arg))))))
input 'noerror)))
parsed)
#+END_SRC
In which lists are pushed onto the stack and returned, rather than strings. But I don't understand yet exactly how to use the =var= forms to consume input from the "value stack"; I need to study the examples more. I'm also not sure if that will even work with a variable number of arguments.
This seems to work, but we'll have to parse the args again in a separate step:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(-let* ((input "todo:check|someday")
(input "tags:universe+space")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"")
(input "")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"+another")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"+another todo:check")
combinator
(parsed (peg-parse-string ((query (+ (or (and predicate `(pred args -- (list :predicate pred :args args)))
(and plain-string `(s -- (list :predicate 'regexp :args s))))
(opt (+ (syntax-class whitespace) (any)))))
(plain-string (substring (+ (not (syntax-class whitespace)) (any))))
(predicate (substring keyword) ":" (opt args))
(keyword (or "heading" "tags" "todo" "property"))
(args (substring (+ (and (or quoted-arg unquoted-arg) (opt separator)))))
(quoted-arg "\"" (+ (not (or separator "\"")) (any)) "\"")
(unquoted-arg (+ (not (or separator "\"" (syntax-class whitespace))) (any)))
(separator (or (and "|" (action (setf combinator 'or)))
(and "+" (action (setf combinator 'and)))
(and ":" (action (setf combinator 'arg))))))
input 'noerror)))
parsed)
;;=> (t (:predicate "todo" :args "check") (:predicate "heading" :args "\"spaced phrase\"+another"))
#+END_SRC
Well, a bit of fiddling (lots of trial-and-error required) produced this:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(-let* ((input "todo:check|someday")
(input "tags:universe+space")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"")
(input "")
(input "heading:\"spaced phrase\"+another")

** DONE Document/figure out tag inheritance
I think it should probably be enabled in most cases, to avoid missing results that users would expect to find, but it will reduce performance in some cases, so users should be able to turn it off when they don't need it.
[2018-06-12 Tue 14:32] The docstring for ~org-map-entries~ says:
#+BEGIN_QUOTE
If your function needs to retrieve the tags including inherited tags at the *current* entry, you can use the value of the variable org-scanner-tags which will be much faster than getting the value with org-get-tags-at. If your function gets properties with org-entry-properties at the *current* entry, bind org-trust-scanner-tags to t around the call to org-entry-properties to get the same speedup. Note that if your function moves around to retrieve tags and properties at a *different* entry, you cannot use these techniques.
#+END_QUOTE
[2019-09-26 Thu 21:31] Handled with the tag caching recently implemented.
** DONE [#B] Dual matching with regexp and predicates
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: 39972bb5-fdd0-4754-93ba-c85796a67ccf
:END:
/Note: This is underway in the =preamble-re= branch./
Searching and matching could be sped up by constructing a regexp that searches directly to the next possible match, and then matching with predicate functions.
For example, a search like:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(org-ql (org-agenda-files)
(and (regexp "lisp")
(scheduled < today)))
#+END_SRC
Only entries that contain the word =lisp= can be matches, and searching each entry for that word is wasteful. Instead, we could search the buffer for the next occurrence of =lisp=, then check the scheduled date for that entry.
This would require processing the predicate to pull out matchers that can be done as buffer-wide regexps, e.g. =regexp=, =heading-regexp=, =todo=, and possibly =tags=. Org has some regexp-building functions that might make this fairly easy, and then we could probably use ~rx~ to make an optimized version of the regexp. It would also require some refactoring to the searching that would go directly to regexp matches when possible, rather than checking every entry with the predicate.
[2019-07-16 Tue 11:14] Made new branch =preamble-re-new= based on current =master=. Seems to work well. Here's some code for testing and comparing performance (~bench-multi-lets~ is from [[https://github.com/alphapapa/emacs-package-dev-handbook#bench-multi-lets][here]]).
[2019-07-16 Tue 11:56] Going to merge to =master= as 0.2, so marking this as done, even though there's a bit more that can be done from here.

:END:
[2017-12-31 Sun 17:54] I wonder if, instead of parsing the whole buffer with =org-element-parse-buffer=, we could simply work on a list of heading positions, e.g. a loop would search forward to the next heading position, then call whatever predicates it needed at the heading's position, using =save-excursion= around each function call. The predicates would need to be updated to get their data from the buffer, instead of using =org-element-property=, but that wouldn't be hard.
[2018-05-10 Thu 15:01] I already changed to using buffer-parsing predicates instead of =org-element-parse-buffer=.

If I made the =date= selector a macro, I could avoid the need to quote the comparator.
Also, maybe instead of having a single =date= selector, I should have =scheduled=, =deadline=, etc.

** Caching of inherited tags
[2019-09-05 Thu 07:59] Implemented a per-buffer tags cache that seems to significantly speed up tags queries that use tag inheritance. It persists as long as the buffer remains unmodified, and it's usable from any code as a single function that automatically uses caching. It also returns inherited tags and local tags separately, which could be useful for having separate selectors, one for inherited tags, one for local tags, and one for both.

strings.")

** Intersecting query results
An idea that /might/ be helpful for performance in /some/ cases, depending on the query, the data, and whether the query has a preamble. But it looks like it would very rarely be helpful.

"Like `org-ql-agenda', but intersects multiple queries."
(declare (indent defun))

*** Alternative approach
[2019-09-01 Sun 08:17] This is very experimental, but the results are surprising. When the action function returns a fairly simple list, the intersection is very slightly faster. When returning full elements, the intersection is much slower, so that it more than doubles the runtime. I wonder if the element list comparison is short-circuiting, or if it looks at the whole lists, because it seems like it shouldn't take more than 4-5 list elements before it realizes that two lists don't match.
Anyway, looks like this approach isn't viable, at least not without a much more complicated implementation, which probably wouldn't be worth it.

** Using =org-element-parse-buffer=
This basically works, as a very basic kind of agenda view, but we can already see that it's much slower (at least, for single-day views) because =org-element-parse-buffer= is slow compared to the agenda code.
[2018-05-10 Thu 15:03] *Note:* This is the old, much slower code that used =org-element-parse-buffer=.

"Return non-nil if current entry has a timestamp in given period.
If no arguments are specified, return non-nil if entry has any

If FROM, return non-nil if entry has a timestamp on or after
FROM.
If TO, return non-nil if entry has a timestamp on or before TO.

I can think of two possibilities for a future approach (besides a deep dive on profiling the current elisp to improve the speed there). They both involve some substantial coding though, and would probably add dependencies. I am curious what anyone things about these, or if there are other ideas.
One is to use the new dynamic module capability to write an org parser in C, or a dedicated agenda function, which would presumably be faster than in elisp. This seems hard, and for me would certainly be a multiyear project I am sure! The downside of this is the need to compile the module. I don't know how easy it would be to make this work across platforms with the relatively easy install org-mode currently has. This could have a side benefit though of a c-lib that could be used by others to expand where org-mode is used.
The other way that might work is to rely more heavily on a cached version of the files, perhaps in a different format than elisp, that is faster to work with. The approach I have explored in this is to index org files into a sqlite database. The idea then would be to generate the agenda from a sql query. I use something like this already to "find stuff in orgmode anywhere". One of the reasons I wrote this is the org-agenda list of files isn't practical for me because my files are so scattered on my file system. I had a need to be able to find TODOs in research projects in a pretty wide range of locations.
The code I use is at https://github.com/jkitchin/scimax/blob/master/org-db.el, and from one database I can find headlines, contacts, locations, TODO headlines across my file system, all the files that contain a particular link, and my own recent org files. This approach relies on emacsql, and a set of hook functions to update the database whenever a file is changed. It is not robust, e.g. the file could be out of sync with the db if it is modified outside emacs, but this works well enough for me so far. Updated files get reindexed whenever emacs is idle. It was a compromise on walking the file system all the time or daily, or trying to use inotify and you can always run a command to prune/sync all the files any time you want.
sqlite is ok, but with emacsql you cannot put strings in it directly (at least when I wrote the org-db code), which has limited it for full-text search so far. Also with text, the db got up to about 0.5 GB in size, and started slowing down. So it doesn't have text in it for now. It has all the other limitations of sqlite too, limited support for locking, single process....
I am moderately motivated to switch from sqlite to MongoDB, but the support for Mongo in emacs is pretty crummy (I tried writing a few traditional interfaces, but the performance was not that good, and limited since Mongo uses bson, and it is just not the same as json!). Why Mongo? Mostly because the Mongo query language is basically json and easy to generate in Emacs, unlike sql. Also, it is flexible and easy to adapt to new things, e.g. indexing src-blocks or tables or whatever org-element you want. (And I want to use Mongo for something else too ;). Obviously these all add dependencies, and might not be suitable for the core org-mode distribution. But I do think it is important to think about ways to scale org-mode while maintaining compatibility with the core.
The main point of the database was to get a query language, persistence and good performance. I have also used caches to speed up using bibtex files, and my org-contacts with reasonable performance. These have been all elisp, with no additional dependencies. Maybe one could do something similar to keep an agenda cache that is persistent and updated via hook functions.
Thoughts?
John
