Hello,

I have been trying to setup an Latex Document using the Tectonic.toml file and the tectonic -X build command.

This article suggests that you can specify further input files. However when I add this line:
inputs = "main.tex"

I get this error

tectonic -X build --keep-logs
note: "version 2" Tectonic command-line interface activated
error: TOML parse error at line 9, column 1
|
9 | inputs = "main.tex"
| ^^^^^^
unknown field inputs, expected one of name, type, tex_format, preamble, index, postamble, shell_escape, shell_escape_cwd

Is it recommended to add further input files within the index file or should these be added in the index?

This is my full Tectonic.toml file:

[doc]
name = "dissertation"
bundle = "https://data1.fullyjustified.net/tlextras-2022.0r0.tar"

[[output]]
name = "default"
type = "pdf"

inputs = "main.tex"

This is #1217. The docs aren't outdated, they're in the future!

You'll have to use either the latest continuous build or the old-fashioned preamble/main/postamble keys.

@rm-dr, thank for your for elaborating. Is there any schedule when this build will be officially released?

No schedule, but I'm working on it.
