arara – Automation of LaTeX compilation

Arara is com­pa­ra­ble with other well-known com­pi­la­tion tools like la­texmk and rub­ber. The key dif­fer­ence is that that arara de­ter­mines its ac­tions from meta­data in the source code, rather than re­ly­ing on in­di­rect re­sources, such as log file anal­y­sis.
