In handlr: Convert Among Citation Formats

Description

Citation File Format (cff) reader

Usage

cff_reader(x)

Arguments

x	(character) a file path or a yaml string

Details

CFF only supports one citation, so many will always be FALSE.

Required fields: cff-version, version, message, date-released, title, authors. We'll stop with error if any of these are missing

You can though have many references in your CFF file associated with the citation. references is an optional component in cff files. If included, we check the following:

• each reference must have the 3 required fields: type, authors, title

• type must be in the allowed set, see cff_reference_types

• the elements within authors must each be an entity or person object https://github.com/citation-file-format/citation-file-format#entity-objects https://github.com/citation-file-format/citation-file-format#person-objects

• title must be a string

Value

an object of class handl; see handl for more
