This plugin is written to enable easy, clean exports from Roam to LaTeX. It aims to fully support all of Roam's markup, while augmenting it with special syntax and capabilities such as:
- referencing tables, figures, and equations in-text
- extracting citekeys, following the pattern
[[@citekey]]
- (optional) generating a bibliography, if zoteroRoam is also installed
The plugin is written to be installed via Roam Depot. It is not currently published, but in the meantime you can install it manually by following these steps:
- go to the Releases page
- download the
.zip
file for the latest release, and unzip it to the folder of your choice - in your Roam settings, enable developer mode for Roam Depot, and load the plugin locally by selecting the folder from the step above
The plugin offers a one-click export to Overleaf, a free online collaborative LaTeX editor. Note that any figures or bibliography files will then have to be uploaded to Overleaf separately, as this currently cannot be done automatically via the API.
If the plugin detects a compatible version of zoteroRoam in your Roam graph, it will connect to it and generate a .bib
file if any citekeys are present in the page or block you're exporting.
