Simple reference manager in Python. Uses folders instead of a database, storing bibliographic information in bibtex. Generates a website to browse papers.
Website generated from bibliography stored in demo/
:
$ pip install papers
In addition, ImageMagick needs to be installed in order to generate PDF previews. Note that you may need to grant special permissions for ImageMagick to read PDF files on Linux.
Import papers from arXiv using an identifier, or import PDFs using URLs:
$ papers-import --path ~/Papers arxiv ID
$ papers-import --path ~/Papers pdf URL --title ...
See papers-import --help
for full list of options.
The bibliography can be exported to a single bib-file, or a website containing the full index:
$ papers-export --path ~/Papers bib
$ papers-export --path ~/Papers web
See papers-export --help
for full list of options.
Previews inspired by Andrej Karpathy's Arxiv Sanity Preserver.
