# The document template

The document template is for turning a simple mardown file into a PDF via LaTeX automatically in GitLab. This can be done in any repository.

## Using the template


1. Create a mardown document in the repository. For example `file.md` in directory `documents`
1. Create a file called `.gitlab-ci.yml` in the root of the repository.
1. Copy the following code to `.gitlab-ci.yml`
```yaml
stages:
  - build

#This job uses the template below. Modify this job to add files
compile:
  extends: .compile
  script:
    - cd documents
    - pandoc file.md -o flie.pdf -M documentclass=otfndoc

##### TEMPLATE STARTS
# Standard template for OTFN document jobs. Don't edit this here except to if the standard template updates
.compile:
  image:
    name: pandoc/latex
    entrypoint: ["/bin/sh", "-c"]
  stage: build

    - apk add git
    - git clone https://gitlab.fabcity.hamburg/OTFN/design.git
    - echo "TEXMFHOME = $(pwd)/design/texroot" >> $(kpsewhich texmf.cnf)
