Shortcut in Atom for compiling main.tex from other .tex-file

I use Atom and have a main.tex file and use input to add text, which I write in separate .tex document, e.g. input{sections/introduction.tex} occurs in the main.tex-file. If I am writing in a section, say introduction.tex and want to compile, then I need to open main.tex and build.



However, I would like to use a shortcut, such that I can compile from a section, e.g. introduction.tex, without changing to main.tex.

  • Welcome to the site! Is it an option to use arara? If so, perhaps tex.stackexchange.com/questions/100585/… might be helpful?

One can add the following at the top of the .tex-file one wish to compile from:
% !TEX root = ../main.tex
