cp example.tex your-invoice-101.tex
# make some changes to your-invoice-101.tex
make your-invoice-101.pdf
Your invoice will be created as your-invoice-101.pdf
cp example.tex your-invoice-101.tex
vagrant up # this may take a while the first time
vagrant ssh -c 'cd /vagrant; make REPORT=your-invoice-101 watch'
Now whenever you make changes to your-invoice-101.tex on your host machine,
the watcher inside the VM will automatically build your-invoice-101.pdf,
which will be saved back to the host machine.
When finished editing, input Control-C to stop the watcher, then run:
vagrant halt
Use Docker Hub's blang/latex image that comes with a matching .sh file.
When you first run this .sh file, it will pull the docker image that includes
all of the latex dependencies.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blang/latex-docker/master/latexdockercmd.sh
chmod +x latexdockercmd.sh
./latexdockercmd.sh # will pull down image on first use
Then, you can use the .sh file as you would xelatex:
cp example.tex your-invoice-101.tex
latexdockercmd.sh xelatex [options] your-invoice-101.tex
You invoice will be created as your-invoice-101.pdf
See example.tex and dapper-invoice.cls for details.
I am not a designer. Inspiration for the design comes from borrowing design ideas from good looking invoices people have published on the net. The resulting design is not even in the same league, but I think it gets the job done.
I am also not a LaTeX author. The code borrows heavily from the moderncv package (which I can't recommend enough), as well as numerous other packages.
The code I have written I release under the MIT license.
Two different font packages are included in the repo for convenience:
- OpenSans (Apache License v2.00)
- Font Awesome (SIL OFL 1.1)
