Bibtex support

[idontgetoutmuch]

pandoc supports bibtex e.g.

pandoc -s NeuralNet.lhs -o NeuralNet.html --bibliography=Neural_networks.bibtex --mathjax

and one can say:

We follow [@rojas1996neural;@Bishop:2006:PRM:1162264]. We are given a training set:

in the literate Haskell and the references from the bibtex file are rendered at the end of the document.

Is this supported in BlogLiterately? The above is just rendered as is afaics.

Well, it looks like I came back to this ticket at precisely the right time! It seems that there is some active change going on with the way pandoc handles citations. See

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/pandoc-discuss/-SajbqoPX8k/QDiHZNcoLaUJ https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/commit/deb59b62354e38df9c85ce6985e5c28dd2301ee7 https://github.com/jgm/pandoc-citeproc

I'll try integrating pandoc-citeproc into BlogLiterately.

@idontgetoutmuch , if you get a chance, can you try this out and see if it works as you expect? There's still a bit of work to do adding some documentation, a BlogLiterately option to turn it on and off, and so on, but it seems to work and the new pandoc-citeproc stuff makes it super easy.

@byorgey I am not sure how to do this. In your example you have a .md file and the reference is included in it. I have a .lhs file and a .bib file. How do I tell BlogLiterately to use the .bib file? I tried the obvious

~/.cabal/bin/BlogLiterately NeuralNet.lhs --bibliography=Neural_networks.bibtex

[byorgey]

Sorry, this is why I need to add documentation (almost done now, actually). At the top of your .lhs. file put

---
bibliography: Neural_networks.bibtex
---

[byorgey]

I could probably add a --bibliography flag too. But I think including the bibliography in the .lhs file itself makes more sense anyway.

Works like a charm :+1: thanks

Great, thanks! Released as BlogLiterately-0.7.
