Error on org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point after recent org-mode update

[thomaslaich]

When invoking org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point, I get the following error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp [org-element-deferred org-element--headline-raw-value (3 69) nil])

  org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point()
  funcall-interactively(org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point)
  command-execute(org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point)

it seems like org-mode made changes to the org-element-property function after 9.7 releases, so the following code does not work anymore:

(defun org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point ()
  "Open an org-habit-stats buffer for the habit at point in a file."
  (interactive)
  (let ((habit-name (org-element-property :raw-value
                                          (save-excursion
                                            (when (not (eq (car (org-element-at-point)) 'headline))
                                              (outline-previous-heading))
                                            (org-element-at-point))))
        (habit-data (org-habit-stats-parse-todo (point)))
        (habit-description (org-entry-get (point) "DESCRIPTION")))
    (org-habit-stats-create-habit-buffer habit-data habit-name habit-description 'file)))

Without having spent a ton of time investigating it, it seems to be a similar underlying issue as this:

Here are the org-mode changes:

I hope I'm not completely off in this analysis.

My systems (happens on both my machines):

MacOS

OS: MacOS Sonoma 14.5
Emacs: 29.3 (PGTK version) (also tried 30.0.50)
org-version: 9.7.3

NixOS

OS: NixOS 24.11 (Vicuña)
Emacs: 29.3 (PGTK version) (also tried 30.0.50)
org-version: 9.7.3

I was getting this exact error around the same time as you and stopped using org-habit-stats (still installed, just never invoking org-habit-stats-view-habit-at-point-agenda) : however in the past week I tried it again for whatever reason and something seems to have fixed the problem, or at least I no longer see the error. Have upgraded emacs multiple times since I saw the error, currently on:

Emacs version: 31.0.50 (built from master on 2025-02-17)
Org version: 9.7.23-ec7267
