Thanks for sharing. I looked over the other solution and it looks a little convoluted to me. I tried to maintain as much of the "normal" R Markdown workflow as possible. The knitr::write_bib()
function basically does exactly what the citeR()
function does, so I don't see too much added value. I am also less familiar with lua filters, but I guess if it works, it works.
@mattwarkentin do you know if it is possible to use csl
files with your solution? I tried to put csl: somestyle.csl
in the YAML but it seems that the style specified in header.tex
overrules the csl
style and I can't find a way to easily use the csl
file with biblatex
.
This solution supports any biblio-style
supported by the biblatex
package. CSL
files are used by pandoc-citeproc
, which is pandoc
's system for cross-document handling of bibliographies. This solution relies on using specific functions (\DeclareBibliographyCategory
, \addtocategory
) from the biblatex
package, and so it forces the use of biblatex
over pandoc-citeproc
.
Here are some of the supported styles. Many more styles are downloadable.
I created a GitHub repository here that is an updated version of the files I shared here previously. I restructured the documents so the header file is no longer necessary. Everything is handled straight from the RMarkdown
document, to make the workflow easier. Consider using these files instead.
@mattwarkentin okay I understand, thanks for summarizing your solution with your GitHub repo. Small review:
- your solution is made in line with the
R Markdown
workflow but prevents the use ofcsl
files - the solution provided on SO is more complex to understand but allows the use of
csl
files.
Both of these solutions might have other drawbacks but I didn't use them enough to detect them.
Thanks again for your help
No problem, happy to help.
I am not sure if the StackOverflow solution still supports csl
, but if the bibliographies are handled by pandoc-citeproc
then csl
is probably still supported.
