Generate PDF resume from command-line

You can generate your pdf resume by running:

uv run python main.py resumes/resume.platf.yaml -o resume

Optionally you can anonymize your PDF by supplying a second argument:

uv run python main.py resumes/resume.platf.yaml -o resume -a path/to/anon_data.yaml

Where anon_data.yaml is a dictionary where the keys are sensitive information you want to replace and the values are generic text to replace them with e.g.

    "Arash Outadi": "First Last" 
    "arash.out@gmail.com": "first.last@gmail.com"
    UBC: UA
    "University of British Columbia": "University of Anons"

    London: UKCity
    Vancouver: CADCity
    BC: CADProv

    Ravelin: Fintech Startup
    Andritz: Pulp & Paper
    "Canadian Logistics": "Logistics Company"
