# unitn-bimrep
A LaTeX class for the Bimonthly report for the University of Trento. The class formats the document in order to
obtain the typical aspect required by the bimonthly report.
## Installation
If you want to use it for now, you have to put `unitn-bimrep.cls` and `unitn-bimrep.jpg` in the same directory
of your main LaTeX file.
## Usage
There are some very simple step to complete a document:
1. Use `unitn-bimrep` as your `\documentclass`
1. In the preamble:
* Define the `\author` (your name)
* Define the `\advisor` (name of your advisor, or comma separated list of advisors)
* Define the `\title` (the title of your thesis)
* Define the `\cycle` (your school cycle)
3. In your document (exactly in this order):
1. Insert the `research` (or `research*`) environment
2. Insert the `school` (or `school*`) environment
3. Insert the `production` (or `production*`) environment
If one of the above element is missing, the class will raise an error.
### Environments
#### Research
The `research` enviroment should contain a sequence of `\item` that describe your work. Inside the environment you can use directly the `\item` macro,
that is interpreted as in a `itemize`. The environment can also be empty.
If you prefer to write a small paragraph, you should use the `research*` environment instead.
`research` (or in alterntive `research*`) can be used **only once**.
#### School
The `school` enviroment should contain a sequence of `\item` that describe the courses you have attended. Inside the environment you can use directly the `\item` macro,
that it is slightly different with respect to the standard one. This `\item` can take upto 3 arguments:
```latex
\item{Title of the course}{Teacher or Organization}{Duration in hours or ECTS credit}
```
If you prefer to write a small paragraph, you should use the `school*` environment instead.
`school` (or in alterntive `school*`) can be used **only once**, after the `research` environment.
#### Production
The `production` enviroment should contain a sequence of `\item` that describe The course you have attended. Inside the environment you can use directly the `\item` macro,
that it is slightly different with respect to the standard one. This `\item` can take upto 3 arguments:
```latex
\item{List of Authors}{Title of the publication}{More information about the paper}
```
If you prefer to write a small paragraph, you should use the `production*` environment instead. This opens tothe usage of more advanced function, such as list of publication generated by `bibtex`.
`production` (or in alterntive `production*`) can be used **only once**, after the `research` and `school` environments.
### Examples
#### Normal Mode
The code:
```latex
\documentclass{unitn-bimrep}
\author{Student Name Surname}
\title{An awesome thesis for a PhD student}
\advisor{Advisor Name Surname}
\cycle{XXX}
\begin{document}
\begin{research*}
For my ctivities I usually prefer to write a small paragraph. Since I used the
\texttt{research*} environment, I cannot use the \texttt{research} after.
\end{research*}
\begin{school}
\item{Interesting course}{A. Einstein}{20h}
\end{school}
\begin{production}
\item{Student Name Surname, Advisor Name Surname}{An awesome publication}{Awesome journal (in review)}
\end{production}
\end{document}
```
produces:
#### With Biblatex
The code:
```latex
\documentclass[bib]{unitn-bimrep}
\addbibresource{ref.bib} % Define here the bibliography file to use
\author{Student Name Surname}
\title{An awesome thesis for a PhD student}
\advisor{Advisor Name Surname}
\cycle{XXX}
\begin{document}
\begin{research*}
For my ctivities I usually prefer to write a small paragraph. Since I used the
\texttt{research*} environment, I cannot use the \texttt{research} after.
\end{research*}
\begin{school}
\item{Interesting course}{A. Einstein}{20h}
\end{school}
\begin{production*}
\nocite{ref:1,ref:2} % Import the citations with \nocite
\printbibliography % and print the bibliography.
\end{production*}
\end{document}
```
