A tiny utility to copy a bibtex file and enrich it with DOI references.
This small utility takes an existing bibtex file and outputs a copy of that file, with additional Digital Object Identifier (DOI) references.
You can pip-install directly using the github link:
pip install -e git+https://github.com/sharkovsky/[email protected]#egg=doi4bib-0.1.10
Or clone this repository and navigate to it. Then run:
python setup.py install
Note: it requires Python 3.
doi4bib [-h] [-o OUT_FILE] [--version] [-v] [-vv] bib_file
where bib_file is a bibtex file that you want to enrich with DOI references.
It will output a copy of that file, in which each entry has been endowed with
the DOI reference to that article.
The DOI reference is obtained by contacting the Crossref REST API
Note that doi4bib is (so far) the only entry point to this package, and
that the module is not callable.
The DOI references are obtained by contacting the Crossref API. The code to contact the API was shamelessly copied from the OpenAPC DOI Importer by the OpenAPC initiave to whom I owe a lot of gratitude.
I am using aclement's biblib to parse bibtex files, to whom I also owe a lot of gratitude.
This project has been set up using PyScaffold 3.2.1. For details and usage information on PyScaffold see https://pyscaffold.org/.
