Wednesday, we give a presentation, with some friends, about the CouchDB
|
|
Database, to [the Toulouse local LUG](http://www.toulibre.org). Thanks a
|
|
lot to all the presents for being there, it was a pleasure to talk about
|
|
this topic with you. Too bad the season is over now an I quit Toulouse
|
|
next year.
|
|
|
|
During our brainstorming about the topic, we used some paper, and we
|
|
wanted to make a presentation the simpler way. First thing that come to
|
|
my mind was using [restructured
|
|
text](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html), so I've wrote a simple
|
|
file containing our different bullet points. In fact, there is quite
|
|
nothing to do then, to have a working presentation.
|
|
|
|
So far, I've used [the rst2pdf
|
|
program](http://code.google.com/p/rst2pdf/), and a simple template, to
|
|
generate output. It's probably simple to have similar results using
|
|
latex + beamer, I'll try this next time, but as I'm not familiar with
|
|
latex syntax, restructured text was a great option.
|
|
|
|
Here are [the final PDF
|
|
output](http://files.lolnet.org/alexis/rst-presentations/couchdb/couchdb.pdf),
|
|
[Rhe ReST
|
|
source](http://files.lolnet.org/alexis/rst-presentations/couchdb/couchdb.rst),
|
|
[the theme
|
|
used](http://files.lolnet.org/alexis/rst-presentations/slides.style),
|
|
and the command line to generate the PDF:
|
|
|
|
rst2pdf couchdb.rst -b1 -s ../slides.style
