PyLaTeX

PyLaTeX is a Python library for creating LaTeX files. The goal of this library
is being an easy, but extensible interface between Python and LaTeX.
PyLaTeX is a Python library for creating and compiling LaTeX files. The goal of
this library is being an easy, but extensible interface between Python and
LaTeX.
Features
~~~~~~~~
The library contains some basic features I have had the need for so far.
Currently those are:
--------
- Document generation and compilation
- Section, table, math and package classes
- Section, table, math, figure and package classes
- A matrix class that can compile NumPy ndarrays and matrices to LaTeX
- An escape function
- Bold and italic functions
- Every class has a dump method, which writes the output to a filepointer
- Very exstensible base classes that you can use to easily add new features
- Contextmanager style class hierarchy
- Functionality to escape special LaTeX characters
- Bold, italic and verbatim functions
- Every class has a dump method, which writes the output to a filepointer this way you can use snippets in in normal LaTeX files using \\input
Everything else you want you can still add to the document by adding LaTeX
formatted strings instead of classes or regular strings.
formatted strings to the container class you want it to be in.
Dependencies
~~~~~~~~~~~~
------------
- Python 3.x or Python 2.7
- ordered-set
Optional dependencies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- pdflatex (only if you want to compile the tex file)
- NumPy (only if you want to convert it's matrixes)
- ordered-set
- awkwardduet (only if you want to compile to python 2 source code yourself)
Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
------------
::
pip install pylatex

Future development
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
------------------
I will keep adding functionality I need to this library, an interface for
graphics and math will probably be added in a future version.

If you add a feature yourself, or fix a bug, please send a pull request.
If you add a feature yourself, or fix a bug, please send a pull request. The
code is not very difficult and mostly speaks for itself. If you have a question
just let me know.
You can submit issues, but it will not be my priority to fix them. My job and
education are a bit higher on the priority list.
You can submit issues and I will probably respond quite quick. However, it might
take a lot more time for me to fix something. I also have a job, education and a
personal life to worry about. If you want something done try to fix it yourself
as well. Accepting pull requests costs way less time.
Support
~~~~~~~
-------
This library is being developed in and for Python 3. Because of a conversion
script the current version also works in Python 2.7. For futere versions, no
such promise will be made. Uncompatible Python 3 features will not be headed to
keep supporting Python 2.7.
script the current version also works in Python 2.7. For future versions, no
such promise will be made. Python 3 features that are useful but incompatible
with Python 2 will be used. If you find a bug for Python 2 and it is fixable
without ugly hacks feel free to send a pull request.
The platform this library is developed for is Linux. I have no intention to
write fixes or test for platform specific bugs. Pull requests that fix those
are always welcome though.
