ResumeCraftr v0.6.0-beta2

ResumeCraftr v0.6.0-beta2

Highlights

• Executive & Minimal templates rebuilt with embedded fonts, structured sidebars, and refined hero blocks for cleaner export options.
• export-pdf gains --translate <lang>: translates sections via LangChain with per-section progress, caches JSON translations, and names PDFs using initiallast_template_lang_job.pdf.
• Marketing sample surfaced on the docs landing page as a CLI-generated Principal Engineer PDF.

Details

• Executive template now uses Playfair Display + Source Sans 3 with gradient sidebar, publications block, and language column.
• Minimal template uses Inter, summary-first header, better spacing, and translation-friendly typography.
• Export flow now slugifies candidate/job names, ensures deterministic filenames, and shows translation progress with caching.
• Docs updated with the new sample CTA style and README instructions for running the marketing example script.

Installation

pipx install git+https://github.com/raestrada/ResumeCraftr.git@v0.6.0-beta2

ResumeCraftr v0.5.0-beta1

v0.5.0-beta1

Highlights

• LangChain-first runtime: Shell commands now route through a shared LangChain/LangGraph stack (LLM factory, Chroma retriever, tailoring graph). All CLI flows (tailor-cv, parse-cv, etc.) reuse the singleton runtime instead of the old OpenAI SDK code.
• HTML-based PDF engine: Added a PyMuPDF HTML renderer with bundled templates (modern, minimal, executive) plus a workspace override folder (cv-workspace/templates/pdf/). Pick templates via --template or customize them locally.
• Updated CLI workflow: setup provisions cv-workspace/templates/pdf/ and copies modern.html. export-pdf prompts for sections/templates when omitted, and add-job/tailor-cv align with the new graph pipeline.
• Docs & example refresh: README, Getting Started, and the modernization plan describe the LangChain stack, template customization, and the end-to-end flow. The example script seeds a realistic CV/job, runs tailoring, and demonstrates the new exporter.

Breaking Changes

• Removed deprecated Pandoc/PyPDF/OpenAI helpers (extract_pdf, pdf, prompts/pdf.py, and the sample PDF). Scripts relying on them need to switch to tailor-cv + export-pdf.

Upgrade Notes

1. Pull the release and run poetry install (or update your environment) for the new LangChain/Chroma/PyMuPDF deps.
2. Rerun resumecraftr setup per workspace to regenerate cv-workspace, copy modern.html, and refresh resumecraftr.json.
3. Tailor and export using the new commands, e.g.:

   resumecraftr tailor-cv
   resumecraftr export-pdf --template modern

Customize layouts by editing cv-workspace/templates/pdf/modern.html (installed automatically) or adding new .html files and calling --template my_template.
Enjoy the modernized ResumeCraftr pipeline!
