TexCreate From MKProjects

TexCreate provides users to easily create projects by using a config.toml file to set metadata and templates.

Version 2 Beta

Currently TexCreate is on Version 2 beta, and is recommended to stay in 1.2.0 until a stable release is out. In this current beta, not everything is stable, and there is still some "broken" code. Here are some of the following issues:

• Edit, Doc and Web are still being developed
  • Edit expected for beta 2
  • Doc will come along with texcreate.mkproj.com
  • Web will come along with zip command
• Basic, Math and Code templates are only available
  • Other templates are still being developed with tex-rs backend

Changes

New config.toml format: toml author = 'Author' title = 'Title' date = 'Date' project_name = 'Project' template = 'Basic' paper_size = 'letterpaper' document_class = 'article' font_size = 12 packages = [] only-files = false

New project structure: shell out/ Project.pdf src/ Project.tex structure.tex README.md texcreate.toml

Along with the new compile command, you can define your TeX Compiler in texcreate.toml, and it will compile into the out directory.

New Commands

• compile:
  • Allows user to compile their project
• migrate:
  • Allows user to turn their config.toml from v1 to v2

Note: More information and proper documentation will be provided in TeXCreate website that is still being developed.

Disclaimer: This release is still considered very beta and it's main purpose is to allow people to start migrating their projects, however for production uses continue to use v1.2.0
