texbot - npm explorer

![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/dvdfreitag/texbot)

Texbot is a Slack bot that generates LaTeX rendered images using the QuickLaTeX site.

Usage

Once invited to a room, texbot listens for the command !tex. For example, the following command:

``latex !tex \begin{eqnarray} y &=& x^4 + 4 \nonumber \\ &=& (x^2+2)^2 -4x^2 \nonumber \\ &\le&(x^2+2)^2 \end{eqnarray}`

Produces the following render:

!Equation

`Token`


In order for texbot to function properly, you must first add a bot to the list of custom configurations. Once you have a bot, you must replace

in bin/texbot.js with the API Token for that bot.

Please note: Be careful when using GitHub and API Tokens. These are sensitive values that should not be pushed to public repositories. If you plan to use texbot in a repository you should use the fs npm module and store this token in a file that does not get pushed to the public repository.

`Packages`


texbot includes the following LaTeX packages by default:
- amsmath
- amsfonts
- amssymb
- graphicx
- mhchem

But you can easily change which packages are included by editing the preamble inside of bin/texbot.js`. Keep in mind that QuickLaTeX does not support all packages.
