Purpose

In this this R project I my CV/resume following Mitchell O'Hara-Wild's R package vitae ("awesome"" template define in LATEX in awesome-cv.cls )

I have 4 versions:

• Long, in Italian 🇮🇹
• Long, in English 🇺🇸
• Short, in Italian 🇮🇹 (2 versions)
• Short, in English 🇺🇸

NOTES

• ✅ lang: "it" for Italian in bibliography ☑️ but footer stays ni EN "June 2023"
• ✅ A major "gotcha" 🤯 was the possibility to insert Publications & Talks exploiting my Zotero collections in the ....bib format that can be entered directly via the function vitae::bibliography_entries.
  • (*) when exporting from Zotero better to select BetterBibLaTeX
• ✅ Most other information is saved in ./data/*.csvwhich get loaded via data/cv_data_ENG_ITA.R, except for Competences (Personal, Software, Language) which are defined in *.Rmd files
  • ⚠️ see notes in the .Rmd files on how to deal with csv -> latex formatting nightmare (
  • ☑️ fixing .*csv files directly from Excel or R will have different implications on "" rendering via latex
• ❓ the language tables (copied from Lorena Abad) use knitr::kable() with latex_options... this implicated downloading of LaTeX packages (float, xcolor, colortbl?)...which have been giving issues with compiling
• ✅ The best way to deal with "ANONIMIZATION" (i.e. Eutalia) is directly on PDFreader by redacting the PDF

TO DOs

• ☑️ revise and write instructions to be consistent adding rows to .*csv files in terms of quotes/links etc

• ☑️ Current version of vitae does not print footer anymore...fixed by dev version

• ❓apa6-cv.csl seems OK except hyperlink exceed page width.... must check other formatting

RECURRENT FIXES

• ☑️ The vitae pckg relies on LaTeX "if you're encountering issues, please check that LaTeX is installed. The tinytex package makes it easy to setup LaTeX within R:

      install.packages('tinytex')
      tinytex::install_tinytex()
      ```
  -   See <https://yihui.org/tinytex/r/#debugging> for debugging tips.
  -   Check LaTeX packgs installed ( or not installed)
  ``` r
  tinytex::tl_pkgs(only_installed = T)
  tinytex::check_installed('xcolor') #TRUE
  tinytex::parse_packages('awesome_longCV_ENG.log')

  • Find the root directory of the installation v

  tinytex::tinytex_root()
  [1] "/Users/luisamimmi/Library/TinyTeX"

  • Change PDF engine Rstudio --> Preferences --> Sweave

Acknowledgements

• Mitchell O'Hara-Wild R package vitae, along with:
  • Youtube video by Bryan Jenks on vitae Free Code Camp Talk: Making A Data Driven CV With RMarkdown
  • Some variations on the above seen in Lorena Abad Crespo's version shared here. To make this version, I had to modify the awesome-cv.cls file

      % Add fontawesome5 package 
      \RequirePackage{fontawesome5}
      \RequirePackage[default,opentype]{sourcesanspro}

• Future attempt could be this Github action to develop resume!
