automated&online tex and pdf creation #20

We should try to find a nice solution to generate the files automatically on a server.

perfect solution would feature:

front end website so people trigger generation and download current files
cron jobs to trigger generation in certain intervals (every night?)

With https://github.com/Lodifice/mfnf-pdf-export/commit/4368fba9e0193f7216ee5c001edb18a99a8b63a7 I can regularly upload the current PDF version to my own server. You can find the current PDF and tex-files at https://homepages.physik.uni-muenchen.de/~Stephan.Kulla/mfnf-pdf-export/

For example here is the URL to the current PDF: https://homepages.physik.uni-muenchen.de/~Stephan.Kulla/mfnf-pdf-export/analysis1/analysis1.pdf

Maybe we could have a wiki page where the last build log is uploaded, so authors can see wether there are errors or unparsable elements in their articles they might want to change. This is why 75ddca30b2448bd20a0c75fd2790113d3594e2d2 uses mediawiki syntax.

@vroland I have uploaded the log at https://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/Mathe_f%C3%BCr_Nicht-Freaks:_Projekte/Protokoll_von_Formatierungsfehlern_im_Analysis-Buch

The current implementation is IMHO sufficient for milestone 1...

This can be closed, right?

This is not yet complete, I think. We may still want on-demand generation on smaller books by the authors...
