runtexfile – Automate the process of compiling (La)TeX documents with index, bibliography,…
This package provides a small script like latexmk to run a TeX or LaTeX document controlled from within the document itself. The commands have to be defined at the beginning of the document, e.g.:
%! HV lualatex --shell-escape
%! HV biber
%! HV lualatex --shell-escape
%! HV xindex
%! HV xindex --config DIN2 -l DE -o test2.vwd <test2.vwx>
%! HV xindex --config DIN2 -l DE -o test2.dbd <test2.dbx>
%! HV lualatex --shell-escape
%! HV lualatex --shell-escape
\documentclass[...]{...}
...
The script itself does not parse the log file.
