This is a Python3 package used to create a CV much in the style of BibTex. This was created because the author was sick of maintaining three separate CV files (Long form, short form and HTML). 

Files:

base_create.py ->   Contains the base classes used for constructing the CV. It currently defaults to creating the CV in LaTeX, it will need to be updated to be more dynamic (including HTML).

                    Additionally, the sections and order are currently hard coded. It won't include any fields that aren't present in "self.sections". However, it shouldn't break if they aren't present in the fields document (but it might). Eventually, this can be made more dynamic by taking fields and order from "cv_formatting.txt". 

                    It's safe to run this file, it will return a long form CV with all fields that do not have the flag "show=False".


cv_formatting.py -> This should be relatively set and shouldn't need improvement. It contains methods to load the fields and formatting data.

field.py ->         The container class for a field. The DataEntry is the base class that is generic, most fields belong in this class. There are a couple of specialized classes that may no longer be necessary. This class also contains order information.

cv_formatting.txt-> This contains the individual fields that make up how the CV looks. The format string "{  }" denotes keywords and '  ' denotes optional entries. 

header.txt,footer.txt -> The header and footer of the CV tex file. Change to modify appearance of your CV.

cv_data.txt ->      All the data of your CV. Each entry should be in {} with semicolons at the end of lines.
