textle
is software to automate the use of typesetting and their support tools, like LaTeX
and pandoc
.
For more information, see the full documentation on read the docs, or in the docs/
folder.
$ # textle is python3 only
$ pip3 install textle
Alternatively, install from source by cloning this repo and using
$ python3 setup.py install
To build the documentation to the site
folder,
$ mkdocs build
This tool was created as I often create small one-off TeX (sometimes from markdown through pandoc
) projects that need to be formatted in similar ways, and that I like building quickly.
textle
aims to solve these problems: it makes it easy to not only build a project to a PDF once, but even to do it live; and it makes simple the definition of the project. All one has to
do is either use the CLI, which was designed to be powerful and simple, or write a Textlefile
. The project also aimed to be lightweight, both binary-wise and filesystem-wise, the idea being to
not pollute a VCS with random files.
The Usage section demonstrates my common use cases.
