does not recognize bibtexkey

[pythongirlx]

When I use "\cite{bibtexkey}", it only displays (?). If I then generate the reference list, it tells me: "!! This reference was not found in library.bib !!", even though it most definetely is in there. I generate my .bib via Mendeley.

I have the same exact problem, I wish they can solve due to all package is awesome but this part does not work.

Hi @pythongirlx, @nikorose87 Sorry, I missed the first issue. Can you

• look in the javascript console to see if some error appear in it,
• otherwise, post an example notebook and bibliography (eg in a gist) so that I could try to replicate, because this works for me in all my use cases.

[nikorose87]

Thank you @jfbercher

The Javascript console says:

TypeError: callback is not a function

And the box inside the error mentions the following:

init_cells                                    http://localhost:8888/nbextensions/latex_envs/initNb.js:135:17

add/y.handle                                                                        jquery.min.js:2

Let me know if you require the example notebook.

Regards.

@nikorose87 Yes, please upload somewhere an example notebook + bibtex file

[nikorose87]

Example:

• Concept adopted by \cite{Davis1996} in which they defined this concept as: The resistance that the muscle and other soft tissue structures that cross a joint offer during gait in response to an applied moment.

I have to mention that the compiled text works perfect, I mean, generates the link to the reference section and It visualizes either apa-liked, numbered or reference, but in the reference section it shows: [Davis1996] !! _This reference was not found in biblio.bib _ !!.

bib file citation example:

Automatically generated by Mendeley Desktop 1.19.1 Any changes to this file will be lost if it is regenerated by Mendeley. BibTeX export options can be customized via Options -> BibTeX in Mendeley Desktop @article{Davis1996, abstract = {Dynamic joint stiffness (the slope of joint angle-moment plot) is defined as the resistance that the muscles and other soft tissue structures that cross a joint offer during gait in response to an applied moment.

I've tried changing the name, the location, and nothing works, I am attaching the metadata info for this package:

"latex_envs": { "eqNumInitial": 1, "eqLabelWithNumbers": true, "current_citInitial": 1, "cite_by": "key", "bibliofile": "biblio.bib", "LaTeX_envs_menu_present": true, "labels_anchors": false, "latex_user_defs": false, "user_envs_cfg": false, "report_style_numbering": false, "autoclose": false, "autocomplete": true, "hotkeys": { "equation": "Ctrl-E", "itemize": "Ctrl-I" } } }

I wish it will help!

[jfbercher]

Sorry. It definitively works for me. Download the file in https://gist.github.com/jfbercher/b26166088cee0aacffafbef455e1a69e (raw/save as) and check if it works, after changing the biblio filename to test2.bib in the LateX configuration toolbar (press enter after editing).

[jfbercher]

[of course execute the 2nd cell which creates the bib file in current directory]

[nikorose87]

Thank you so much!

It worked. It seems like the automatic generation of the bib file by mendeley is not being recognized by your code. I made a clean bibtex file with the references and worked perfect.

I am facing the same issue. The extension does not work perfectly with Mendeley generated bib file. I have tried copy-pasting some of the entries to test with: https://gist.github.com/jfbercher/b26166088cee0aacffafbef455e1a69e Some worked and others don't work. I can't identify why. I have 1442 document in Mendely so it can't be a misery to generate an entry for all them. @nikorose87 how did you generate the "clean" bibtex file?
