A simple use of the CLI tool kissmyresume for local building my own CV in to multiple formats by using a Json Resume theme as input. Also includes hosting in Github Pages.
Clone the repo and install the NPM dependencies with:
npm install
You can build my included CV into different formats with:
npm run build
Start a local server with live reloading:
npm start
Create or publish an index.html in the /docs directory for making it
available through Github Pages.
npm run publish
You can test a themes and save each version in a folder with the same
name as theme (inside /test folder):
theme=<theme-name> npm run test
If the below commands doesn't work for you, try to install kissmyresume globally:
npm install -g kiss-my-resume
And after that, you will need to restart your terminal.
If you want to make your own CV, feel free to fork this repo and edit the input JSON file with your own info.
The default input file is /resume/base.json, but you can create a new empty
Json Resume file with the all the posible fields with
the following command:
kissmyresume new <your-resume-name>
If you run npm run publish, a /docs folder will be created with an
index.html with your CV. Just configure your repo following this
guide
to point to your docs folders. And that's it! Now you have your new and shiny
resume available in https://<your-github-username>.github.io/<your-cv-repo>/.
You can use any of the dozens of compatible JSON Resume themes.
And you can specify which one use with the local variables described below, or direct executing the kissmyresume commands.
Inside the package.json, in the config section, you can change the variables
for the following things:
- resumefile: The input JSON Resume file.
- themepath: Path of the theme to use in building, local serve, etc.
- buildpath:: The desired path for generated output files.
- publishpath:: The desired path to contain the index.html file of the CV. The default one is one recognized by Github Pages, so you don't need to create a special branch just for hosting your CV.
