unified-latex-cli

What is this?

Command line interface to common unified-latex functions.

When should I use this?

If you want to reformat, process, or gather statistic on LaTeX files from the command line.

Examples

Reformat and pretty-print a file

unified-latex input.tex -o output.tex
Copy

List all commands defined via \newcommand and friends (and hide the file output).

unified-latex input.tex --no-stdout --stats
Copy

Expand the definition of the macro \foo{...}, which takes one argument.

unified-latex input.tex -e "\\newcommand{foo}[1]{FOO(#1)}"
Copy

View the parsed AST.

unified-latex input.tex --inspect
Copy

Convert the file to HTML. (Note, you will need to include and configure a library like MathJax or KaTeX to render any math in the resulting HTML. Warnings are provided for macros that aren't recognized by the converter.)

unified-latex input.tex -o output.html --html
Copy

Lint all tex files in the current directory and watch for changes.

unified-latex . --no-stdout --lint-all --watch
Copy

Install

npm install @unified-latex/unified-latex-cli
