# Rob Brown's Curriculum Vitae (Résumé)



  

    

    

  



A concise (2 page) summary of my work history.  It contains links to my [Github Pages Portfolio](https://robert-will-brown.github.io) which adds more detail than the limited space allows.  

The source is written in LaTeX and an automated Github Action generates a PDF which is uploaded to a public S3 bucket.

 - Published CV

# How It Works

### On Push to a New Branch (Tests)

If `rb-cv.tex` is updated a GitHub action `tests.yml` is triggered which runs the following tests:

 1. Uses `hunspell` to check the correctness of spellings (add out-of-dictionary words to `/dict/words`).

 1. Checks the PDF can be complied from the LaTeX file.

 1. Use `pdfinfo` to compile the `rb-cv.tex` LaTeX file into a PDF and then check how many pages it spans.  It fails the pipeline if the resultant PDF spans more than two pages.

### On Creating a Tagged Release (Produce & Publish)

Runs `produce-pdf.yml` which produces and publishes the CV to S3.

 1. Updates the string _"with X years experience"_ with the correct number of years I've been working.

 1. Replaces tokens in `rb-cv.tex` with the date, branch and git hash to identify the version of the file.

 1. Generates a PDF from the LaTeX file.

 1. Generates a Thumbnails from the PDF.

 1. Uploads the PDF and Thumbnails to a public S3 bucket (click on the thumbnails above to see the resultant PDF).
