unified-latex-ctan

What is this?

Macro/environment definitions and utilities for specific LaTeX packages from CTAN.

Note: basic LaTeX macro/environment definitions come from the latex2e package, even though this is technically not a CTAN "package".

When should I use this?

If you want information about special functions/macros from particular CTAN packages, or you need to parse special environments.

Notes

By default all macros/environments that are exported get processed. If multiple packages export a macro with the same name, then the later-exported one takes precedence. If two packages export a macro/environment of the same name but with conflicting argument signatures, this can cause issues when another unified-latex package processes arguments positionally. For example, by default \textbf takes one argument, but the beamer version of \textbf takes two arguments. During HTML conversion, if arguments are referenced positionally, this may cause previously-working code to fail with when beamer macro signatures are used. A workaround is provided: _renderInfo.namedArguments. If _renderInfo.namedArguments is specified on both the original macro/environment definition and the conflicting one, other unified-latex commands can reference arguments by name instead of by position.

Install

npm install @unified-latex/unified-latex-ctan

This package contains both esm and commonjs exports. To explicitly access the esm export, import the .js file. To explicitly access the commonjs export, import the .cjs file.
