in https://github.com/rstudio/bookdown. I find that in ./inst/example, makeindex is much usefull for my book. I want to add Chinese index in my book, but makeindex cannot work as expected for Chinese index.
I can compile index use zhmakeindex instead of makeindex without change the tex file, like the example in https://github.com/leo-liu/zhmakeindex.
as http://www.ituring.com.cn/article/207412 told.
bash
xelatex -interaction=batchmode zhmakeindex.tex
bibtex zhmakeindex
zhmakeindex zhmakeindex
xelatex -interaction=batchmode zhmakeindex.tex
xelatex -interaction=batchmode zhmakeindex.tex
How can I use zhmakeindex instead of makeindex in bookdown? I cannot find where to write makeindex or zhmakeindex command. Thank you.
With the current development version of the tinytex package, you can set the global option tinytex.makeindex in your .Rprofile or an R code chunk in your book:
devtools::install_github('yihui/tinytex')
options(tinytex.makeindex= 'zhmakeindex')
Further command-line options can be passed via the global option tinytex.makeindex.args, e.g.,
options(tinytex.makeindex.args = c('-z', 'pinyin'))
