A CV with the design in LaTeX and the data stored in an easy to read/modify YAML file. This repository requires pandoc and pdflatex, which is included with tex live.

• data.md = CV data in YAML format
• refs.bib = bib file for publications
• Makefile = compiles the the CV using pandoc

Modify data.md and refs.bib and then build your CV:

make pdf

This will create the build directory with your compiled CV stored in /build/pdf/cv.pdf.

To clean the build directory

make clean-pdf

a Docker image with all the necessary software installed is included. This provides a convenient way to use YAML-CV without having to worry about installing all the necessary packages. Here are the steps using Docker.

1. Clone the GitHub repo:

git clone https://github.com/lgloege/YAML-CV.git

2. Pull the image (this image is a little hefty at 2.7 GB)

docker pull ghcr.io/lgloege/pandoc-pdflatex:1.0

3. Run the image and connect the a host volume. If you use the command below make you are starting base directory and not /Docker

docker run -it -v $(pwd):/root ghcr.io/lgloege/pandoc-pdflatex:1.0

4. Manipulate the data files and build your CV.

make pdf

5. your CV will be in /build/pdf/cv.pdf. You may not be able to open it from the container. But don't worry, if you have a connected volume then the changes will persist.

This directory contains CV templates. This currently only has templates to create a PDF.

• cv-class.cls = cv class
• cv-template.tex = cv latex template

Thid directory is created after running make. It contains all the compiled material to create your CV

• cv-class.cls = CV class copied from /templates
• refs.bib = bibtex file copied from base directory
• cv.tex = compiled LaTeX file
• cv.pdf = PDF created using pdflatex

Since input is in YAML, you may have to escape some characters, such as :

Currently this only compiles to PDF. additions are include compilation to other formats such as HTML
