Automated queries via an API #24

Closed dhimmel closed 8 years ago

I would love a way to automate doi2bib conversion. Is there an API to pass a DOI and receive the bibtex?

dhimmel commented 8 years ago

I found an alternative source that provides an API. DOI to bibtex conversion can be automated using DOI content negotiation. For example:

curl --location --header "Accept: application/x-bibtex" http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.48810

There are some bugs with DataCite records, but these also occur when using doi2bib.

Here's Python code to create bibtex from DOIs that fixes the DataCite bugs.
