ivoatex

Docker container to build IvoaTex documents.

We recommend you use Podman to run IvoaTex as a rootless-container. The advantage is that the user inside the container is automatically mapped to your uid on the host, avoiding problems with file ownership.

Using Podman to build a document in the current directory:

DOC_PATH=$(pwd)

podman run \
    --rm \
    --tty \
    --interactive \
    --volume "${DOC_PATH:?}:/document:rw,Z" \
    ivoa/ivoatex:latest

Once inside the container, run the following commands to build the document:

make clean
make biblio
make forcetex

To do the same with Docker you need to specify the user uid and gid so that the resulting documents are owned by your account rather than by root.

docker run \
    --rm  \
    --tty \
    --interactive \
    --user "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
    --volume "${DOC_PATH:?}:/document:rw,Z" \
    ivoa/ivoatex:latest
