Using org-publish to publish org project

To publish an org project first create publish.el with contents like:

(require 'org)
(require 'ox-publish)
;(load-file "./elisp/htmlize.el")

(defvar *src-dir* "./")
(defvar *docs-dir* "../docs")

(setq org-docs
`("org-docs"
 :base-directory ,*src-dir*
 :base-extension "org"
 :publishing-directory ,*docs-dir*
 :recursive t
 :publishing-function org-html-publish-to-html
 :headline-levels 4             ; Just the default for this project.
 :auto-preamble t
 :auto-sitemap t
  ))

(setq org-static `("org-static"
  :base-directory ,*src-dir*
  :base-extension "css\\|js\\|png\\|ico\\|jpg\\|png\\|gif\\|mp3\\|ogg\\|swf\\|emacs\\|sh\\|py\\|pdf\\|tex\\|css\\|ss\\|rkt\\|flv\\|tgz"
  :publishing-directory ,*docs-dir*
  :recursive t
  :publishing-function org-publish-attachment
  ))


(setq myproject1
      '("myproject1" :components ("org-docs" "org-static")))

(setq org-publish-project-alist
      (list org-docs org-static myproject1))

(org-publish-project
 myproject1  ; project name
 t ; force
 )

Then use command 'emacs --script publish.el' to build the project. Here it is assumed that publish.el is in the folder where all the org-files are present. Further it is assumed that documentation (HTML export) is desired in ../docs folder.

Also refer to http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/551/how-to-have-org-publish-automatically-publish-generated-images By adding everything except last call to org-publish-project in .emacs, it would be possible to publish default set of projects from running emacs using org-publish-project command without requiring the shell command.
