Added

  • GitHub Actions configuration (b847c85)

    This is supposed to replace the GitLab config.

Changed

  • GitLab references to point to GitHub instead (7a33ee3)

  • Updated Python test suite from 3.7 to 3.10 (0733c83)

  • Simplified polyglossia language loading (053b87d)

  • Switched VSCode Remote Containers config from building to downloading image (4efd364).

    When new users first use this template, it is extremely frustrating for them to have to build the entire Docker image from scratch themselves, which can take very long.
    Simply download the existing one from DockerHub, which is much faster.

Removed

  • GitLab-specific content (config files, documentation, ...) (7a33ee3)
  • Deprecated chemmacros usechemmodule macro (0909097)
  • Profanity check in PDF test (0733c83)

Added

  • Option to suppress printing of pages list in the glossaries (b75d3d1)
  • GitLab description templates (7038798)

  • Syntax highlighting now uses minted instead of listings, a backwards-incompatible change (19fbd87)

Removed

  • Previous, custom-made listings language definitions; these are covered much better by pygments, aka minted (19fbd87)

Added

  • Python-based tests for the produced PDFs (1746e4e).
    This allows the user to automatically run a test suite against the produced PDFs,
    for example checking for page count, metadata and much more.
  • Makefiles for the root and tests directories, while
    also swapping all CI routines over to use make (b4a9881).
    This allows for local as well as CI use using the same commands, and reduces coupling
    with the CI engine.
  • Caching of files in CI, for much faster pipelines (while introducing some issues) (28aea76).
  • Showcase and fixing of \abs macro for absolute values (4d0c6ff, bb11b72).

Changed

  • Git metadata display in the colophon (7c59cbe).

Changed

    modern fontawesome5 (8df784e)
  • Insertion of git metadata into the document (PDF metadata or into the printed text
    directly): now based on Lua (6d0cd7e)
