The Repo method (short for repository and report) is the first method of a
rivt file which specifies document configuration settings.
The first line of any method is the heading line, which starts a new
document section. If the section heading is preceded by two dashes (--) it
becomes a section reference and a new section is not started. The toc
parameter specifies whether a document table of contents is generated (not
to be confused with a report table of contents). The page number is the
starting page number for the doc when processed as a stand alone document.
The init command specifies the name of the configuration file which is read
from the rivt-doc folder. Report formatting can be easily modified by
specifying a different init file.
||init | rivt01.ini
The text command inserts text from an external file. Text files may be
plain text or include rivt tags.

The append command attaches PDF files to the end of the doc.
|| append | append/report1.pdf
|| append | append/report2.pdf

rv.I("""The Insert method | default
The Insert method formats static information e.g. images and text. The
color command specifies a background color for the section.
The text command inserts and formats text from external files into the
rivt file. Text files may be plain text or text with rivt tags.
||text | data0101/describe.txt | rivt
The table command inserts and formats tabular data from csv or xls files.
The _[t] tag formats and autonumbers table titles.
A table title _[t]
|| table | data0101/file.csv | 60,r
The image command inserts and formats image data from png or jpg files.
The _[f] tag formats and autonumbers figures.
A figure caption _[f]
|| image | data0101/f1.png | 50
Two images may be placed side by side as follows:
The first figure caption _[f]
The second figure caption _[f]
|| image | private/image/f2.png, private/image/f3.png | 45,35
The tags _[x] and _[s] format LaTeX and sympy equations:
\gamma = \frac{5}{x+y} + 3 _[x]
x = 32 + (y/2) _[s]

rv.V("""The Values method | sub; nosub
The Values method assigns values to variables and evaluates equations. The
sub; nosub setting specifies whether the equations are printed a second
time with substituted numerical values.
A table tag provides a table title and number.
The equal tag declares a value. A sequence of declared values terminated
with a blank line are formatted as a table.
Example of assignment list _[t]
f1 = 10.1 * LBF | N | a force
d1 = 12.1 * IN | CM | a length
An equation tag provides an equation description and number. A colon-equal
tag assigns a value and specifies the result units and printed output
decimal places in the result and equation.
Example equation - Area of circle _[e]
a1 := 3.14(d1/2)^2 | IN^2, CM^2 | 1,2
|| declare | data0102/values0102.csv
The declare command imports values from a csv file written by rivt when
processing assigned and declared values from another doc in the same
project.

Search Tips#
The GitHub search interface is here.
GitHub README searches only index the root directory README. The rivt function
rv.readme()writes every README in a project into the root README so rivt projects on GitHub can be fully searched.The rivt search box automatically adds the rivt search term.
