# Glossy
|
||||
|
||||
This package provides utilities to manage and render glossaries within
|
||||
documents. It includes functions to define and use glossary terms, track their
|
||||
usage, and generate a glossary list with references to where terms are used in
|
||||
the document.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
Glossy is heavily inspired by
|
||||
[glossarium](https://typst.app/universe/package/glossarium), with a few key
|
||||
different goals:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Provide a simple interface which allows for complete control over glossary
|
||||
display. To do this, `glossy`'s `#glossary()` function accepts a theme
|
||||
parameter. The goal here is to separate presentation and logic.
|
||||
2. Simplify the user interface as much as possible. Glossy has exactly two
|
||||
exports, `init-glossary` and `glossary`.
|
||||
3. Double-down on `glossy`'s excellent `@term` reference approach, completely
|
||||
eliminating the need to make any calls to `gls()` and friends.
|
||||
4. Mimic established patterns and best practices. For example, `glossy`'s
|
||||
`#glossary()` function is intentionally similar (in naming and parameters) to
|
||||
`typst`'s built-in `#bibliography`, to the degree possible.
|
||||
5. Simplify the implementation. The `glossy` code is significantly shorter and
|
||||
easier to understand.
|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
|
||||
- Define glossary terms with short and long forms, descriptions, and grouping
|
||||
- Automatically tracks term usage in the document through `@labels`
|
||||
- Supports modifiers to adjust how terms are displayed (capitalize, pluralize, etc.)
|
||||
- Generates a formatted glossary section with backlinks to term occurrences
|
||||
- Customizable themes for rendering glossary sections, groups, and entries
|
||||
- Automatic pluralization of terms with custom override options
|
||||
- Page number references back to term usage locations
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Import the package
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
#import "@preview/glossy:0.2.2": *
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Defining Glossary Terms
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `init-glossary` function to initialize glossary entries:
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
#let myGlossary = (
|
||||
html: (
|
||||
short: "HTML",
|
||||
long: "Hypertext Markup Language",
|
||||
description: "A standard language for creating web pages",
|
||||
group: "Web"
|
||||
),
|
||||
css: (
|
||||
short: "CSS",
|
||||
long: "Cascading Style Sheets",
|
||||
description: "A stylesheet language used for describing the presentation of a document",
|
||||
group: "Web"
|
||||
),
|
||||
tps: (
|
||||
short: "TPS",
|
||||
long: "test procedure specification",
|
||||
description: "A formal document describing test steps and expected results",
|
||||
// Optional: Override automatic pluralization
|
||||
plural: "TPSes",
|
||||
longplural: "test procedure specifications"
|
||||
)
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
#show: init-glossary.with(myGlossary)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Each glossary entry supports the following fields:
|
||||
|
||||
- `short` (required): Short form of the term
|
||||
- `long` (optional): Long form of the term
|
||||
- `description` (optional): Term description (often a definition)
|
||||
- `group` (optional): Category grouping
|
||||
- `plural` (optional): Override automatic pluralization of short form
|
||||
- `longplural` (optional): Override automatic pluralization of long form
|
||||
|
||||
You can also load glossary entries from a data file using #yaml(), #json(), or similar.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the above glossary could be in this YAML file:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
html:
|
||||
short: HTML
|
||||
long: Hypertext Markup Language
|
||||
description: A standard language for creating web pages
|
||||
group: Web
|
||||
|
||||
css:
|
||||
short: CSS
|
||||
long: Cascading Style Sheets
|
||||
description: A stylesheet language used for describing the presentation of a document
|
||||
group: Web
|
||||
|
||||
tps:
|
||||
short: TPS
|
||||
long: test procedure specification
|
||||
description: A formal document describing test steps and expected results
|
||||
plural: TPSes
|
||||
longplural: test procedure specifications
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And then loaded during initialization as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
#show: init-glossary.with(yaml("glossary.yaml"))
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Glossary Terms
|
||||
|
||||
Reference glossary terms using Typst's `@reference` syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
In modern web development, languages like @html and @css are essential.
|
||||
The @tps:pl need to be submitted by Friday.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Available modifiers:
|
||||
|
||||
- **cap**: Capitalizes the term
|
||||
- **pl**: Uses the plural form
|
||||
- **both**: Shows "Long Form (Short Form)"
|
||||
- **short**: Shows only short form
|
||||
- **long**: Shows only long form
|
||||
- **def** or **desc**: Shows the description
|
||||
|
||||
Modifiers can be combined with colons:
|
||||
|
||||
| **Input** | **Output** |
|
||||
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `@tps` (first use) | "test procedure specification (TPS)" |
|
||||
| `@tps` (subsequent) | "TPS" |
|
||||
| `@tps:short` | "TPS" |
|
||||
| `@tps:long` | "test procedure specification" |
|
||||
| `@tps:both` | "test procedure specification (TPS)" |
|
||||
| `@tps:long:cap` | "Test procedure specification" |
|
||||
| `@tps:long:pl` | "test procedure specifications" |
|
||||
| `@tps:short:pl` | "TPSes" |
|
||||
| `@tps:both:pl:cap` | "Technical procedure specifications (TPSes)" |
|
||||
| `@tps:def` | "A formal document describing test steps and expected results" |
|
||||
|
||||
### Generating the Glossary
|
||||
|
||||
Display the glossary using the `glossary()` function:
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
#glossary(
|
||||
title: "Web Development Glossary", // Optional: defaults to Glossary
|
||||
theme: my-theme, // Optionaal: defaults to theme-twocol
|
||||
ignore-case: false, // Optional: ignore case when sorting terms
|
||||
groups: ("Web") // Optional: Filter to specific groups
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Customizing Term Display
|
||||
|
||||
Control how terms appear in the document by providing a custom `show-term` function:
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
#let emph-term(term-body) = { emph(term-body) }
|
||||
|
||||
#show: init-glossary.with(
|
||||
myGlossary,
|
||||
show-term: emph-term
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Glossary Themes
|
||||
|
||||
#### Included Themes
|
||||
|
||||
Glossy comes with several built-in themes that can be used directly or serve as
|
||||
examples for custom themes:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### Custom Themes
|
||||
|
||||
Customize glossary appearance by defining a theme with three functions:
|
||||
|
||||
```typst
|
||||
#let my-theme = (
|
||||
// Main glossary section
|
||||
section: (title, body) => {
|
||||
heading(level: 1, title)
|
||||
body
|
||||
},
|
||||
|
||||
// Group of related terms
|
||||
group: (name, index, total, body) => {
|
||||
// index = group index, total = total groups
|
||||
if name != "" and total > 1 {
|
||||
heading(level: 2, name)
|
||||
}
|
||||
body
|
||||
},
|
||||
|
||||
// Individual glossary entry
|
||||
entry: (entry, index, total) => {
|
||||
// index = entry index, total = total entries in group
|
||||
let output = [#entry.short]
|
||||
if entry.long != none {
|
||||
output = [#output -- #entry.long]
|
||||
}
|
||||
if entry.description != none {
|
||||
output = [#output: #entry.description]
|
||||
}
|
||||
block(
|
||||
grid(
|
||||
columns: (auto, 1fr, auto),
|
||||
output,
|
||||
repeat([#h(0.25em) . #h(0.25em)]),
|
||||
entry.pages,
|
||||
)
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Entry fields available to themes:
|
||||
|
||||
- `short`: Short form (always present)
|
||||
- `long`: Long form (can be `none`)
|
||||
- `description`: Term description (can be `none`)
|
||||
- `label`: Term's dictionary label
|
||||
- `pages`: Linked page numbers where term appears
