This is a simple Nautilus extension for basic LaTex usage such as compiling and deleting temporary files.
To install the extension run
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install
If needed, adapt the installation paths in the CMakeLists.txt file.
By default, the extension is installed to ~/.local/share/nautilus-python/extensions
and the supporting files to ~/.local/share/nautilus-latex.
To adapt the build process, by default this runs pdflatex and biber, change the src/config.ini file before installation or update the installation by calling make install.
The Python bindings for the Nautilus extension uses the nautilus-python package of the GNOME project which should be available through your distro's package manager, e.g. the python-nautilus package for Arch Linux.
Additional to the Nautilus extension, there is a simple CLI for cleaning up temporary LaTex files. To install, simply run
sudo ./install_cli
from within the repository folder. For usage, see
latex-cleanup --help
To uninstall, run
make uninstall
from within the build folder.
