Parse Citations from a bibtex file #2477

Open edmundmiller opened 8 months ago

Description of feature

What if we had a citations.bib file in the the assets/ dir and then auto-generate the citation_text and reference_text?

We could also autogenerate the CITATIONS.md as well...

So I'm thinking about replacing the CITATIONS.md, stripping it down and removing all tools, except for the nextflow+nf-core paper + all the Software packaging/containerisation tools. We get the pipeline citations from the manifest.doi. And we get all the software used, on run time by looking at either the DOI in the meta.yml or the homepage in the meta.yml if it doesn't exist.

thinking about something like:

@misc{DOI,
    doi = {DOI},
    url = {https://doi.org/DOI},
}

@misc{TOOL,
  title   = {TOOL},
  author  = {TOOL},
  note    = {\url{HOMEPAGE}}
}
