Installation

Installation of `uni-titlepage

Installation of the prerequisites

Since uni-titlepage is a LaTeX package, a TeX distribution is of course required. Usually you have the choice between MiKTeX and TeX Live or MacTeX.

In addition uni-titlepage needs the KOMA-Script package scrbase. This should be installed via the package manager of the used TeX distribution. For MiKTeX the package manager can be found in the MiKTeX Console. If MiKTeX is configured to install packages via an online connection when used for the first time, it is theoretically sufficient to load the package in a document with

\usepackage{scrbase}

so that KOMA-Script is installed. But you can also install the package koma-script yourself in the MiKTeX Console.

With TeX Live, KOMA-Script is of course also installed in the default full installation. If you have only a minimal LaTeX installed, you have to install the package koma-script yourself. In the meantime there are several graphical administration tools with integrated package manager in TeX Live. But you can also start the installation of KOMA-Script simply via

tlmgr install koma-script

or

sudo tlmgr install koma-script

from a terminal.

For MacTeX the same generally applies as for TeX Live, because it is a TeX Live with special adaptations for OSX.

Installation of uni-titlepage itself

Theoretically, the same applies to the installation of uni-titlepage as to the installation of prerequisites. Unfortunately, these methods currently still fail because the TeX distributions do not yet include uni-titepage. As long as this is the case, I recommend using l3build.

Installation of l3build

First you have to install the package l3build. This is done in the same way as the installation of prerequisites. Of course, koma-script has to be replaced by l3build.

Installing gh or git

Before the sources of uni-titlepage can be cloned from GitHub, you need either gh or git.

On Windows you can first install gh.

For the Mac you also have to install gh or git. The latter is best done via Xcode.

On Linux you can install either gh or git via the package manager of the Linux distribution. For Debian based Linux distributions this can be done with:

sudo apt-get install git

For openSuSE you use instead:

sudo zypper install git

Cloning uni-titlepage

To clone uni-titlepage with gh, enter the following command in a terminal or the Windows command prompt

gh repo clone komascript/uni-titlepage

and wait for the successful cloning. When using git the corresponding command is:

git clone https://github.com/komascript/uni-titlepage.git

In both cases, a new directory uni-titlepage is created with the source code of the package.

Building and installing the package and building the manual

With

cd uni-titlepage

you change to the directory of uni-titlepage. Afterwards the installation is done with

l3build install

Finally one creates with

the manual and the PDFs of the example files. The example files can be found in the subdirectory build/unpacked (or build\unpacked for Windows).
