# parxiv
a simple script to assist in making a clean directory to upload to arxiv
*formerly* `clean-latex-to-arxiv`
### Installation
```
pip install -U git+https://github.com/lukeolson/parxiv
```
### Usage
parxiv file.tex
this will make `arxiv-somelongdatestring` with
- file_strip.tex (where includegraphics paths and comments are stripped)
- file_strip.bbl (you should have the .bbl file already -- if not, it will attempt to generate)
- all figures
- local `.bst`, `.cls`, and `.sty` files
- extra files listed in extra.txt
For example, this will take
```
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 60K Jun 3 08:01:49 2021 amsart.cls
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 9B Jun 3 08:51:21 2021 extra.txt
drwxr-xr-x 3 501 20 96B Jun 3 08:21:08 2021 figs1/
drwxr-xr-x 3 501 20 96B Jun 3 08:22:07 2021 figs2/
drwxr-xr-x 3 501 20 96B Jun 3 08:37:08 2021 figs3/
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 11B Jun 3 08:50:40 2021 notes.md
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 677B Jun 3 09:53:40 2021 paper.tex
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 236B Jun 3 09:54:25 2021 refs.bib
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 88B Jun 3 09:08:16 2021 section.tex
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 100B Jun 3 09:05:50 2021 subsection.tex
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 86B Jun 3 09:01:32 2021 subsubsection.tex
```
and make a new directory `arxiv-Sun-Jun--3-15-38-51-2021` with:
```
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 60K Jun 3 08:01:49 2021 amsart.cls
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 4.1K Jun 3 08:21:08 2021 fig1.pdf
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 4.3K Jun 3 08:22:07 2021 fig2.pdf
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 4.4K Jun 3 08:37:08 2021 fig3.pdf
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 11B Jun 3 08:50:40 2021 notes.md
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 49B Jun 3 15:38:52 2021 paper_strip.bbl
-rw-r--r-- 1 501 20 705B Jun 3 15:38:51 2021 paper_strip.tex
```
The structure is flat. Then
```
tar cvfz arxiv-Sun-Jun--3-15-38-51-2021.tgz arxiv-Sun-Jun--3-15-38-51-2021`
```
and you're ready to upload the `.tgz` file.
### what may go wrong
- The `.bbl` file may not be generated. Pre-generate this.
- Arxiv may need an extra file; put this (local) file into extra.txt
