Support Hayagriva (YAML) bibliography #241

Open kescobo opened 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Typst is a new type-setting language (similar to LaTeX) written in Rust. It natively uses Hayagriva (based on YAML) syntax for citations.

Describe the solution you'd like Ability to provide hayagriva-formatted citations as a source instead of (or in addition to) bitex / JSON

Describe alternatives you've considered bitex is fine, and there are command-line tools to swap between them.

Additional context I am quite hopeful that typst will pick up steam and increase in adoption, but it's still quite new. I suspect that the user base for this feature will be very small (possibly just me!) for at least a little while, and since it can also use bibtex already, there's not a huge need to transition to Hayagriva. But given that it's built on YAML (which has a lot of support in various languages), and many of the fields are the same as bibtex, I also hope it wouldn't be too heavy a lift.

For reference, the Hayagriva repo has documented its file format.
