Repository files navigation

This repo contains the source for my CV:

  • generate.py creates a website and PDF from a shared YAML source by using Jinja templates.
  • The publications are rendered from a single BibTeX file. The abstracts are displayed in the website output and the selected publications here are highlighted.
  • The YAML source links to all author websites, which will automatically be added to the publication lists in the website and PDF.
  • GitHub stars are automatically scraped and cached on disk.

Building and running

Dependencies are included in requirements.txt and can be installed using pip with pip3 install -r requirements.txt. make will call generate.py and build the LaTeX documents with latexmk and biber. The Makefile can also:

  1. Stage to my website with make stage,
  2. Start a local jekyll server of my website with updated documents with make jekyll, and
  3. Push updated documents to my website with make push.

What to modify

Change the content in cv.yaml. You should also look through the template files to make sure there isn't any special-case code that needs to be modified. The Makefile can also start a Jekyll server and push the new documents to another repository with make jekyll and make push.

Warnings

  1. Strings in cv.yaml should be LaTeX (though, the actual LaTeX formatting should be in the left in the templates as much as possible).
  2. If you do include any new LaTeX commands, make sure that one of the REPLACEMENTS in generate.py converts them properly.
  3. The LaTeX templates use modified Jinja delimiters to avoid overlaps with normal LaTeX. See generate.py for details.
