# moderncv

|
## A modern curriculum vitae class for LaTeX
|
|
|
|
`moderncv` provides a documentclass for typesetting applications (curricula vitae and cover letters) in various styles. `moderncv` aims to be both straightforward to use and customizable, providing five ready-made styles (classic, casual, banking, oldstyle and fancy) and allowing one to define his own by modifying colors, fonts, icons, etc.
|
|
|
|
### Getting started
|
|
Once you clone this repo have a look at some examples and build the manual to see if this package suits your needs.
|
|
This can be done by issuing
|
|
```make
|
|
make userguide
|
|
```
|
|
in a terminal. After completion of the compilation precompiled versions of the template in all styles can be found in the folder `examples` and
|
|
the user guide in the folder `manual`.
|
|
Alternatively get the tar ball from [CTAN](https://ctan.org/pkg/moderncv?lang=de). The examples as well as the documentation are already prebuilt in that tarball.
|
|
|
|
To start working on your own application use and modify the template file `template.tex`.
|
|
The user guide can be found in the folder `manual` and contains additional information on what the document class offers.
|
|
|
|
### Makefile
|
|
The `Makefile` supports the following rules.
|
|
|
|
#### Rules intended for regular use
|
|
* `template:` Build the default `moderncv` template `template.tex` with `LuaLaTeX`.
|
|
|
|
* `templates:` Build the template `template.tex` with LuaLaTeX for _all moderncv styles_ and move resulting `pdf` files to the folder `examples/`.
|
|
|
|
* `userguide:` Build the user manual `manual/moderncv_userguide.tex` with `LuaLaTeX`. This rule calls the rule `templates` before compiling the documentation.
|
|
|
|
* `clean:` Clean the clutter created by compiling of the documents.
|
|
|
|
* `delete:`Delete `template.pdf` and `manual/moderncv_userguide.pdf`.
|
|
|
|
* `deleteexamples:` Delete `examples/` folder and remaining template example `pdf` files in folder `manual/`.
|
|
|
|
* `force:` Force rebuilding the user guide by running the rules `delete` `deleteexamples` `userguide` and clean `clean
|
|
|
|
#### Rules intended for package maintainers
|
|
* `version:` Update the version information (version number and date) of all `moderncv` files (*.sty, moderncv.cls, *.tex). This rule can be called in two different ways. Note, however, that it is intended to be called by the rule `release` and usually does not need to be called explicitly.
|
|
* `make version:` Called in this way the version number is obtained through `git describe --tags`. If this information is newer all `moderncv` files get updated.
|
|
* `make version NEW=<version number>:` Optionally, the desired version number `<version number>` can be specified.
|
|
|
|
* `tarball:` Create a new release tarball suitable for upload to CTAN. If the `example/` folder is present, it gets included in the tar archive. Similary, all `pdf` files in the `manual/` folder get included aswell. This rule is intended to be called by the rule `release` and usually does not need to be called explicitly.
|
|
|
|
* `release:`Update the version information, rebuild examples as well as the user guide and create a releasable tarball including everything. In this way the tarball on CTAN contains ready made pdf files.
