This isn't really a question, so please accept my apologies if non-questions are unwelcome here.
I am using sage with latex, but I am the kind of person who doesn't like leaving the notebook, so I tried to automate the process. You can see my code below. Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.
Also, if you think you will find this or a similar setup useful, please say so, because people who like staying within the notebook are probably underrepresented among the developers.
def load_cache(f): # so that we don't recompute for every latex change
try:f.cache=load(DATA+"/cache/"+f.f.func_name)
except IOError:pass
def export_code (list_of_functions, folder): # copy code to our latex folder
for func in list_of_functions:
try:
save(func.cache,DATA+"/cache/"+func.f.func_name)
func=func.f
except AttributeError:pass # in case the function isn't cached
sh.eval("cp " + func.func_code.co_filename + " " + folder + "/" + func.func_name + ".py")
def runsagelatex(latexfile):
def evalindir(cmd,path): # otherwise the output appears in the current directory
sh.eval("( cd "+os.path.dirname(path)+" ; "+cmd+" )")
evalindir("pdflatex --file-line-error "+latexfile,latexfile)
evalindir("sage "+os.path.splitext(latexfile)[0]+".sagetex.sage",latexfile)
evalindir("pdflatex --file-line-error "+latexfile,latexfile)
def sagelatex(name="project",export=[],cmd=""):
html(r'<div class="notruncate">') # for the output of pdflatex
try:os.mkdir(DATA+"/cache/")
except OSError:pass
try:os.mkdir(DATA+"/sagelatex/")
except OSError:pass
try:os.mkdir(DATA+"/sagelatex/sagenb-export/")
except OSError:pass
export_code(export,DATA+"/sagelatex/sagenb-export/")
f=open(DATA+"/sagelatex/"+name+".tex","wb")
f.write(cmd)
f.close()
runsagelatex(DATA+"/sagelatex/"+name+".tex")
html(r'</div>')
Example usage:
def f1(a,b):
return a+b
@cached_function
def f2(a):
return a^2
load_cache(f2)
And in a new cell (and change DATA below):
sagelatex(name="myproject",export=[f1,f2,load_cache],cmd=\
r"""
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{sagetex}
\begin{document}
\begin{sagesilent}
DATA="/.../.sage/sage_notebook.sagenb/home/user/123/data/" # make it match the worksheet's DATA constant
execfile("sagenb-export/load_cache.py")
execfile("sagenb-export/f1.py")
execfile("sagenb-export/f2.py")
\end{sagesilent}
$\sage{f1(1,2)+f2(10)}$
\end{document}
""")
This should produce a pdf file in your DATA/sagelatex folder.
