## Dependencies

- Wagtail-metadata
- It uses wagtail-metadata for all meta & SEO fields.
- Wagtail-markdown
- Weasyprint
- Uses Weasyprint to generate a PDF from the HTML page.

## Installation

Install wagtail-resume with pip:

`pip install wagtail-resume`

Add the application and dependencies to installed Django applications:

```py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
"wagtailmetadata",
"wagtailmarkdown",
"wagtail_resume",
...
]
```

Add the urls for generating a pdf using Weasyprint:

```py
path("resume/", include("wagtail_resume.urls")),
```

Run the migrations.

## Getting started

Import and extend the BaseResumePage:

```python
# home/models.py
from wagtail_resume.models import BaseResumePage

class ResumePage(BaseResumePage):
pass
```

After adding the model you'll need to make a migration

```
python manage.py makemigrations
```

... and then apply it

```
python manage.py migrate
```

Head over to the Wagtail admin and create your resume!

Weasyprint generates PDFs using the absolute URL of a resume which consists of the hostname, port and path. Therefore don't forget to configure your site's host and path in the Wagtail admin interface which is located in settings -> sites. E.g when running the server locally the host should be localhost and the port should be 8000 (or whichever port you develop locally with).

## Default Fields

Default resume fields:

- Role
- Profile picture
- Social links
- About
- Work Experience
- Contributions (Opensource/projects)
- Writing (internal Wagtail pages or external URLs)
- Education (Degrees/Courses/Certificates)

## Customization

Wagtail-resume currently supports 4 customizations:

- Heading for a section
- Icon for a section (Fontawesome)
- Font style
- Background color
- PDF generation button visibility (public, authenticated, disabled)

The background-color should be specified in hex (e.g #FFFFFF) or [css supported colors](https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.asp) and the font should be available on Google fonts. The fonts supported are only the ones from [Google Fonts](https://fonts.google.com/) so make sure to check what fonts are available.
