# Texas
## Purpose
This crate does not, in any way, even remotely cover the vast variety of things you can do with latex. Instead, it attempts to provide a friendly API
for some of the most basic functions. Furthermore, it does not catch most latex errors.
It's also my first foray into the open-source world, so constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated. https://github.com/Abhay478/Texas/issues
## Basics
- The primary type is `Document`, which you populate per your whims and fancies. This can be written to a file like so:
```rust
let mut q = File::create("file.tex")?;
// let doc = Document::new(DocumentClass::new("book"));
let doc = document!("book");
write!(q, "{}", doc.to_string())?
```
- The document can be filled with `Component`s, `Package`s and `Command`s. They can be created using both functions and macros.
- `Component` is an enum, with each variant containing a separate struct. If a component `impl`s the `Populate` trait, you can fill it with more `Component`s, then install it in the `Document` like so:
```rust
let mut p1 = Part::new("one");
p1.attach(Component::Chapter(Chapter::new("c1")))?
.attach(Component::Chapter(Chapter::new("c2")))?;
p1.attach_vec(vec![chapter!("c3"); 2])?;
doc.new_component(Component::Part(p1));
```
- `Command`s can be created and installed like so:
```rust
doc.new_command(Command::new("brak", 1, "\\ensuremath{\\left(#1\\right)}"));
```
- And commands can be called in-text like so:
```rust
let mut p1 = section!("one");
p1.attach(Component::Command(
doc.get_command("brak")?.call(vec!["hello"])?,
))?;
p1.attach(command!(doc, "brak", "there"))?;
```
- Will add ability to generate stuff like `ensuremath` from code eventually.
- Packages can be created and installed like so:
```rust
let mut p1 = package!("parskip", "parfill");
doc.new_package(p1);
```
- Also has trait `Opt`, which allows for adding options to a command (like `usepackage` and `documentclass`, for now).
## Log
- ### 0.1.7
- `package!` macro wasn't working, fixed that.
- Moved the modules to the front (re-imported them in `lib.rs`) for convenience.
- ### 0.1.8
- Small whoops. Latex errors due to `Line` code.
- ### 0.1.9
- Brought structs into scope.
## Future
- Add subsubsections
- Add new componnt variant for `description` lists
- Maybe some handy mathy shortcuts (like the aforementioned `ensuremath`)
