Reading from Files

You can also read resume content from files and generate the resume:

from resume_generator import ResumeGenerator

def read_file_content(filename):
    with open(filename, 'r') as file:
        return file.read().strip()

def create_resume():
    # Create a resume generator instance
    generator = ResumeGenerator(add_h1b_header=True)

    # Read candidate details
    details = read_file_content('resume_content/candidate_details.txt')
    lines = details.split('\n')
    name = lines[0].replace('Name: ', '').strip()
    email = lines[1].replace('Email: ', '').strip()
    phone = lines[2].replace('Phone: ', '').strip()
    location = lines[3].replace('Location: ', '').strip()
    linkedin = lines[4].replace('LinkedIn: ', '').strip() if len(lines) > 4 else None

    # Add candidate details
    generator.add_candidate_details(
        name=name,
        email=email,
        phone=phone,
        location=location,
        linkedin=linkedin
    )

    # Add professional summary
    summary = read_file_content('resume_content/summary.txt')
    generator.add_summary(summary)

    # Add education
    education = read_file_content('resume_content/education.txt')
    degree = ''
    university = ''
    graduation_year = ''
    for line in education.split('\n'):
        if line.startswith('Education Degree:'):
            degree = line.replace('Education Degree:', '').strip()
        elif line.startswith('University Name:'):
            university = line.replace('University Name:', '').strip()
        elif line.startswith('Graduation Year:'):
            graduation_year = line.replace('Graduation Year:', '').strip()

    generator.add_education(
        degree=degree,
        university=university,
        graduation_year=graduation_year
    )

    # Add skills
    skills = read_file_content('resume_content/skills.txt')
    skills_dict = {}
    for line in skills.split('\n'):
        if ':' in line:
            category, details = line.split(':', 1)
            skills_dict[category.strip()] = details.strip()
    generator.add_skills(skills_dict)

    # Add experience
    experience = read_file_content('resume_content/experience.txt')
    experience_entries = []
    current_entry = {}
    
    for line in experience.split('\n'):
        if line.startswith('Company:'):
            if current_entry:
                experience_entries.append(current_entry)
                current_entry = {}
            current_entry['company'] = line.replace('Company:', '').strip()
        elif line.startswith('Location:'):
            current_entry['location'] = line.replace('Location:', '').strip()
        elif line.startswith('Duration:'):
            current_entry['duration'] = line.replace('Duration:', '').strip()
        elif line.startswith('Position:'):
            current_entry['position'] = line.replace('Position:', '').strip()
        elif line.startswith('Description:'):
            current_entry['description'] = []
        elif line.startswith('-') and 'description' in current_entry:
            current_entry['description'].append(line.lstrip('-').strip())
        elif line.startswith('Skills:'):
            current_entry['skills'] = line.replace('Skills:', '').strip()

    if current_entry:
        experience_entries.append(current_entry)

    generator.add_experience(experience_entries)
