Citing @software entry with mkdocs ?

[reyman]

Hi,

Thanks for your work,

There are new csl extension style for bibtex/biblatex that are added to manage the @software entry :

• https://www.softwareheritage.org/2020/05/26/citing-software-with-style/?lang=fr
• https://ctan.org/pkg/biblatex-software?lang=en
• https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/8004

I try to use @software with mkdocs-bibtex without success, and this is probably normal because that need some works to integrate i suppose.

Mkdocs material is really used for dev doc, so citing software with the good biblatex entry could be cool :)

Best, SR

If you set a CSL file (style management file format from Latex), then you will get whatever styles that CSL file supports. I don't plan on supporting anything beyond a bare-minimum style for the built-in formatting. Everything else is doable with the right choice of CSL files.
