Bib2gls

[Martin-2019]

Dear Maintainer!

How to use bib2gls with the llmk program, with options, just like for the arara program (sequence), eg.:

% arara: lualatex: { shell: yes, synctex: yes } % arara: bib2gls: { group: on , recordcount: on , breakspace: on } % arara: lualatex: { shell: yes, synctex: yes } % arara: bib2gls: { group: on , recordcount: on , breakspace: on } % arara: lualatex: { shell: yes, synctex: yes } % arara: biber % arara: lualatex: { shell: yes, synctex: yes } % arara: lualatex: { shell: yes, synctex: yes }

Is this possible? If so, it might be worth adding to the manual - as an example.

Regards

You can configure several general features, including that specifies command-line options (opts), to treat any kind of program in the programs table. Please see Section 3.4 of the reference manual.

I'm not familiar with bib2gls. Is there anything special for the invocation of bib2gls? Maybe you need to run the latex program as its postprocess?

[programs.bib2gls]
command = "bib2gls"
target = "%B.aux"  # is this correct?
opts = ["<any option you want>"]
postprocess = "latex"

If there are standard (or recommended) options for general users, then I can add the setting to the default programs table and indeed write it down in the manual accordingly.

Dear Maintainer!

Unfortunately, it does not work.

What did you tried and what happened? Please provide more details.

I was working on attached files - the arara commands works, unfortunately.

Sorry but only "the arara commands works" does not explain what you expect from our program. I will close this issue unless the reporter provides a more detailed and concrete request.

[Martin-2019]

Thank you very much for your time and I apologise for the lack of communication, probably due to a lack of IT skills.

Yours sincerely
