I use the "org-agenda-custom-commands" variable and define a command
with a filter (this is the recommended way of creating different
agendas and todo lists in org). For example, to get an agenda view
with only my tasks, which I identfy with the tag "MH" I use (this is
my normal agenda view):
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
(list
(list
"a" "Agenda with (only) my tasks (those that have my tag and a date)"
'((agenda
""
((org-agenda-skip-function '(my-skip-by-tags-mytag "MH"))
(org-agenda-overriding-header
"Agenda -- with (only) my tasks (those that have my tag and a
date)")
))))))
(defun my-skip-by-tags-mytag (tag)
"Skip tasks except those that contain tag (with inheritance!)."
(let ((line-end (save-excursion (progn (end-of-line) (point))))) ;; return pos
(if (or
(member tag (org-get-local-tags)) ;; check first if only local (speed)
(member tag (org-get-tags-at (point))) ;; rest include inherited tags
)
nil ; do not skip
line-end))) ; skip, continue after that
The issue here is that the filter is a function that checks for
inherited tags. I am not sure this can be done with
org-agenda-get-day-entries. This is why I was suggesting perhaps
using a modified version of org-agenda that would feed data to calfw
instead of (or, perhaps even better, in addition to) generating the
org agenda views. Or perhaps org-agenda-get-day-entries can be made to
call a filter function like the one above?
