Expand description
This module contains the high-level interface that ties together the various engines. The main
struct is ProcessingSession
, which knows how to run (and re-run if
necessary) the various engines in the right order.
For an example of how to use this module, see cli_driver.rs
, which contains tectonic’s main
CLI program.
Structs
A summary of the I/O that happened on a file. We record its access
pattern; where it came from, if it was used as an input; the cryptographic
digest of the file when it was last read; and the cryptographic digest of
the file as it was last written.
The IoEvents type implements the IoEventBackend. It is used to figure out when to rerun the TeX
engine, to figure out which files should be written to disk, and to emit Makefile rules.
The ProcessingSession struct runs the whole show when we’re actually
processing a file. It understands, for example, the need to re-run the TeX
engine if the
.aux
file changed.A builder-style interface for creating a
ProcessingSession
.Enums
Different patterns with which files may have been accessed by the
underlying engines. Once a file is marked as ReadThenWritten or
WrittenThenRead, its pattern does not evolve further.
The different types of output files that tectonic knows how to produce.
The different types of “passes” that
ProcessingSession
knows how to run. See
ProcessingSession::run
for more details.
