Bib file does not include volume titles #2228

Closed retorquere closed 2 years ago

Discussed in https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/discussions/2227

Originally posted by **moiken-hinrichs** July 28, 2022 Hello, I'm working with RMarkdown/Bookdown and Zotero as my library, which generally is working quite nice. I just noted, that all the volume titles are missing in the bibliography after rendering the document. First I thought it's the .csl which is at fault (using taylor-and-francis-harvard-v) but when I checked the .bib file, I saw that the titles were not included. An exampe: ``` @inbook{pelegrin2000, title = {Les techniques de débitage laminaire au Tardiglaciaire: critères de diagnose et quelques réflexions}, author = {Pelegrin, Jacques}, editor = {Valentin, Boris and Bodu, Pierre and Christensen, Marianne}, year = {2000}, date = {2000}, pages = {73{\textendash}86}, series = {Mémoires du Musée de Préhistoire d'lle de France}, address = {Nemours} } ``` Thats how the file looks for all the @inbook, clearly missing the title after the editior. Is there a way I can change that, so I don't have to manualy add the titles after finishing the writing process?

@moiken-hinrichs please post a BBT support log ID (which must have -refs in it) here.

@moiken-hinrichs with what translator did you export the entry you posted? I see both year and date and that's not something that BBT does/should be doing. I can't reproduce it in any case.

moiken-hinrichs commented 2 years ago

I copy-pasted from the .bib file, which I opened with the windows editor. If thats what you wanted to know. The rendered citation in the bibliography looks like: Pelegrin, J., 2000. Les techniques de débitage laminaire au tardiglaciaire: Critères de diagnose et quelques réflexions. In: B. Valentin, P. Bodu, and M. Christensen, eds. Nemours, 73–86.

But how did you create the bib file? None of the following exports what was posted above from P32R5Z9G-refs-euc:

Frankly, I have no idea. I didn't change anything in the YAML settings, so it should be BibTeX.

retorquere commented 2 years ago

I don't think this is anything that Zotero/BBT is doing. It is more likely that something in the RMarkdown pipeline (which means likely pandoc) is creating this bib file. I can't think of a way to generate this bib from Zotero/BBT.

retorquere commented 2 years ago

How does RStudio (I take it?) interact with Zotero/BBT? I think the culprit will be there.

moiken-hinrichs commented 2 years ago

If I remember correctly, I used this instruction: https://gsverhoeven.github.io/post/zotero-rmarkdown-csl/ And seems I went for the citr version. This package is at least installed in my RStudio. But I'm not sure, as I use the simple shortcut of the visual mode and not the addin via citr. And here: https://rstudio.github.io/visual-markdown-editing/citations.html it is stated, that no further configuration is needed, when RStudio and Zotero are run on the desktop. Which I do. I have no idea. Maybe I should try to export my library as bib file and use that instead of letting Rmarkdown compile a list. But thanks for the help. :)
