Add bibliographic references to wiki pages

Description

​BibTeX is a system for formatting lists of bibliographic references.

This plugin provides the ability to cite from common bibtex (*.bib) files.

The plugin can use bibtex files out of:

• a repository, such as svn, git, mercurial
• a wiki page
• a wiki attachment
• an external website

If a wiki page called BibTex exists, the page is loaded automatically by BibRef() and used as standard library.

Make sure to put bibtex entries into a Code Block when you use them from a wiki page.

Other features:

• The new default citation style is an IEEE-like style.
• !BibTeX files can be loaded from external websites.
• Extension point IBibRefFormatter for custom citation styles introduced.
• Extension point IBibSourceProvider for custom BibTeX loaders introduced.
• Wiki pages can be used as bibliograpy. The Entries must be inside a code block.
• The attachments can now be loaded from any page in the wiki.
• A special page "BibTex" will be loaded automatically if this page exists, like in ​BadContent.

The command structure is inspired by the reference and bibtex system in LateX. This should make it easy to make this plugin compatible with existing latex plugins: tagged:LaTeX

Source

You can check out TracBibPlugin from here using Subversion, or browse the source​ with Trac.

Installation

A prerequisite for installation is ​bibtexparser, of which a modified version is already included in the plugin.

Run one of the following commands, depending on the Trac version that you run:

easy_install https://trac-hacks.org/svn/tracbibplugin/0.10/
easy_install https://trac-hacks.org/svn/tracbibplugin/0.11/
easy_install https://trac-hacks.org/svn/tracbibplugin/0.12/
easy_install https://trac-hacks.org/svn/tracbibplugin/1.0/

Configuration

You can add a [bibtext] config section in your trac.ini file. In this section you can change the heading of the References and you can add other sources that should always be loaded:

[bibtex]
heading = Literatur # default: References
auto = source:mybib.bib, wiki:BibTexBlub # default: wiki:BibTex

Load Bibtex Entries

The way to invoke a bibtex file has substantially changed:

[[BibAdd(source:path/to/file[@rev])]]    # add a file from source
[[BibAdd(attachment:[wikipage/]file)]]   # add a file from a wiki attachment
[[BibAdd(wiki:page)]]                    # use a wiki page
[[BibAdd(http://www.external.page.com)]] # use a bibtex file from anywhere on the web

Examples

[[BibAdd(source:bib.bib@2)]]
[[BibAdd(source:trunk/bib.bib@latest)]]
[[BibAdd(source:bib.bib)]]
[[BibAdd(attachment:fiol.bib)]]
[[BibAdd(attachment:test/lala.bib)]]
[[BibAdd(http://www.external.page.com/bibtex.bib)]]

Cite an article

Macros

[[BibCite(key)]]
[[BibCite(key,page)]]

Wiki Syntax

cite:key
cite:key:page

Add an article without citation

[[BibNoCite(key)]]

Inserting the bibliography

This renders all cited entries:

[[BibRef]]

This renders all loaded entries:

[[BibFullRef]]

If you also want to render all entries from the special page BibTex, you can write:

[[BibFullRef(auto=true)]]

URL/DOI Fields

url and doi fields in BibTex files will be rendered to links if possible.

Full Example

= Welcome =

[[BibAdd(source:mybib.bib)]]

I am citing here [[BibCite(small)]] and someone said "hello world" [[BibCite(wiki,123)]] and cite:small:123-124 is important. finally the BibTex entry with the key ''big'' is not cited, but will appear in the references because of tho ''!BibNoCite'' macro.

[[BibNoCite(big)]]
[[BibRef()]]

When rendered this looks as follows:
