Tectonic

[153957]

See #30. Building the demo on Travis using tectonic.

Not necessarily the best way to go, this is more a proof of concept.

Does the check fail on the matplotlib plot? I say, let's kill that one and only show Artist.

Thanks for putting in the time, @153957 !

Seems to be working now, it is downloading all the tex requirements. I hope that tectonic actually caches the file where I expect (i.e. $HOME/.cache/Tectonic), because then we can cache them. I was unable to easily find the correct location in the tectonic source code, I got this location from an issue (tectonic-typesetting/tectonic#159).

If you also want automated builds/deploys of the generated docs/demo to gh-pages we will need an artist-bot github account with rights to push to artist (not master branch). You can use your own github token for Travis, but that is less secure, since it gets equal access (push) as you.

Did you set it up as such for HiSPARC repositories? Maybe too much work for now.

Caching would be nice! But we don't actually do anything with that location, right? You just list the contents for checking?

[153957]

Correct, I did not cache it yet, because locally I was not able to find the cached files there, so I wanted to make certain it was the correct location on Travis. Which it appears to be.

[davidfokkema]

Ah, nice!

Indeed I did, the @hisparc-bot has access to specific repos, and not to the master branch in those repos.
