bibcite: A JavaScript repository from bacor

BibCite

BibCite let's you cite from your BibTeX files using a markdown-like syntax. It depends on jQuery and Underscore.js. More information and a demo can be found on the project's page

Installation

bower install bacor/bibcite

Usage

<script src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="underscore-min.js"></script>
<script src="bibcite.min.js"></script>
<script>
    B = new BibCite('path/to/my/bib/file.bib', { /* options */ })
    B.replace();
    B.references('.bibliography')
</script>

Parenthesized citations are very common @(Lazaridou2016).
You can add a tooltip showing the full reference just
as easily @@(Lazaridou2016). Alternatively, cite in the
running text, just like @@Descartes2006. If you prefer
footnotes @^Lazaridou2016 that is also fine. Or cite
without showing the reference @!Banerjee2015; or get the
full reference: @@Lazaridou2016

# References
<div class="bibliography"></div>

A working demo and more examples can be found on [the project's page] (https://bacor.github.io/bibcite)

Syntax

The citation syntax follows the general pattern [@ or @@][mode][citation key]{[before]}{[after]}. Each part is explained below.

[@ or @@]. A single @ results in a plain text citation, double @@ results in an interacte citation with a full reference in a tooltip.
[mode]. There are currently five citation modes; they are summarized in the following table.

Syntax	Meaning	Example	Method
`@key`	Default inline citation	@Descartes2006	`citet`
`@(key)`	Bracketed citation	@(Descartes2006)	`citep`
`@^key`	Footnote citation	@^Descartes2006	`footcite`
`@*key`	Full reference	@*Descartes2006	`fullcite`
`@!key`	Show in references only	@!Descartes2006	`nocite`

[citation key]. The citation key from the BibTeX file. Note that this is case _in_sensitive.
{[before]}. The text [before] is inserted before the citation
{[after]}. The text [after] is inserted after the citation. Note that before and after can contain HTML elements (or initially, markdown), as long as it contains no curly brackets.

Options

The BibCite object takes various options. These are always passed along internally and you can overwrite them in, e.g. individual citations MyBibCite.pcite(myCitation, myOptions).

defaultMode The default citation mode; defaults to "t" (i.e. citet)
selector CSS selector for the elements in which to look for citations; defaults to "p, li".
