Print bibliographic entry inline #248

Closed jackweinbender closed 8 years ago

jackweinbender commented 8 years ago

I couldn't find any mention of this in the docs, so apologies if this has already been discussed. I'd like to be able to explicitly print out a specific bibliography item, rather than it's "citation." My use case: I'm compiling biographical information about a bunch of authors in a single document. After each author, I'd like to be able to list a few of their notable works as full bibliography items.

I'm imagining being able to just use [@citekey] notation, but with some kind of modifier like the author-suppressed citation form.

## Notable Works
[+cross1973]
[+cross1998]

would yield:

Cross, Frank Moore Jr. Canaanite Myth and Hebrew Epic: Essays in the History 
      of the Religion of Israel. Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University 
      Press, 1973.

———. From Epic to Canon: History and Literature in Ancient Israel. Baltimore:
      Johns Hopkins University Press, 1998.

I've seen folks request things like "multiple bibliographies" and I think this could also be a workaround for that use case—even if it requires manually referencing each work, which isn't ideal.

I think it's possible to use a CSL style that will print the complete reference instead of a citation, and would omit a bibliography; this would give you what you want. I seem to recall discussion on this issue, so you might search the pandoc-discuss archives (on google groups) for something like "annotated bibliography".
