Installation

Requirements

Python >= 3.5
The only tested version of python so far.

For Generating PDFs

One of the following tools should be sufficient to actually generate PDFs:

docker
Provides full texlive installation for the sake of producing PDF output in tests. In the future there will be a pyresume create pdf command that uses this image to generate PDFs directly for users.
texlive (or some other LaTeX tool)
A relatively minimal installation should take care of most resume-generating needs.

Installation steps for either of these will vary depending on the operating system (ie windows, mac, linux, etc); in the case of linux, your OS’s package management tool (yum, apt, nix, pacman, emerge, etc); and on your OS version. However, I would recommend trying docker first since that will open up other avenues of computer usage for you.

Stable release

To install PyResume Builder, run this command in your terminal:

$ pip install pyresume

This is the preferred method to install PyResume Builder, as it will always install the most recent stable release.

If you don’t have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide you through the process.

From sources

The sources for PyResume Builder can be downloaded from the Github repo.

You can either clone the public repository:

$ git clone git://github.com/waynr/pyresume

Or download the tarball:

$ curl  -OL https://github.com/waynr/pyresume/tarball/master

Once you have a copy of the source, you can install it with:

$ python setup.py install
