LaTex Boilerplate

This is a simple preconfigured boilerplate for medium-sized LaTex projects including continuous integration for GitLab CI. It's based on the scrbook document class and currently layed out for german scientiefic documents.

Getting Started

To use this template in a new project, either download the ZIP directly from GitLab or clone it using Git:

git@gitlab.com:fastexitlane/latex-boilerplate.git
# now set up your own Git workspace:
git remote remove origin
git remote add origin git@your-own-gitlab.host:path/to/repo.git
git push origin master

If you already have set up an empty Git workspace for your project, add it as additional remote and then fetch and pull:

git remote add boilerplate git@gitlab.com:fastexitlane/latex-boilerplate.git
git fetch boilerplate
git pull boilerplate master
# if you don't want to keep the remote for pulling future updates, remove it:
git remote remove boilerplate

In order to use the preconfigured continuous integration, make sure your GitLab CI meets the Basic Requirements.

If you know what you're doing, simply start adding your content files in chapter/ as LaTex \chapters and \input them into main.tex. If you do not know what you're doing or get into trouble, you may want to consider the wiki ;-)
