#+TITLE: org-ref: citations, cross-references, indexes, glossaries and bibtex utilities for org-mode #+BEGIN_HTML #+END_HTML See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zya8SfmCtFA and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyvpSVl4_dg for examples of org-ref in action. [[./org-ref.org]] contains all documentation and installation instructions. [[./doi-utils.org]] contains functions for downloading bibtex entries from a DOI, and redefines the org-mode doi link so it has more functionality. [[./jmax-bibtex.el]] contains some utility functions: 1. jmax-bibtex runs a menu command with actions to run on a bibtex entry including looking up the doi for the entry in a variety of places, e.g. web of science related/citing articles, Google Scholar, Pubmed, and crossref, or opening a PDF associated with the entry. 2. Bind M-n/M-p to next/previous bibtex entry. 3. Sentence/title casing the title of a bibtex entry 4. Function to replace non-ascii characters in bibtex entries 5. Functions to replace journal names with @string entries, and corresponding short/long names. * Installation We are slowly moving towards getting org-ref in MELPA. Until then, here are some directions that will probably help install org-ref. You should clone this repository somewhere. You should set these variables. Here is an example of how mine are set in an init.el file. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (setq reftex-default-bibliography '("~/Dropbox/bibliography/references.bib")) ;; see org-ref for use of these variables (setq org-ref-bibliography-notes "~/Dropbox/bibliography/notes.org" org-ref-default-bibliography '("~/Dropbox/bibliography/references.bib") org-ref-pdf-directory "~/Dropbox/bibliography/bibtex-pdfs/") #+END_SRC You may want to set some convenient keys for working in your bibtex file: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (global-set-key [f10] 'org-ref-open-bibtex-notes) (global-set-key [f11] 'org-ref-open-bibtex-pdf) (global-set-key [f12] 'org-ref-open-in-browser) #+END_SRC Change into the directory you cloned org-ref into and run this command to generate the elisp files. #+BEGIN_SRC sh make tangled #+END_SRC Add the directory you cloned org-ref into to your load-path, and require the features you want. #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (add-to-list 'load-path "path-to-org-ref") (require 'org-ref) (require 'doi-utils) (require 'jmax-bibtex) (require 'pubmed) (require 'arxiv) #+END_SRC * Contributors I would like to thank the following contributors to org-ref - https://github.com/divinenephron - https://github.com/OlafMerkert - https://github.com/prtkm And everyone who has filed an [[https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref/issues][issue]], or asked about org-ref on the [[http://orgmode.org/community.html][org-mode Mailing list]].
