In mwmclean/RefManageR: Straightforward 'BibTeX' and 'BibLaTeX' Bibliography Management

## Needed to clear internal package citation list from previous vignette builds
unloadNamespace("RefManageR")

library(RefManageR)
bib <- ReadBib(system.file("Bib", "biblatexExamples.bib", 
                           package = "RefManageR"), check = FALSE)
bib2 <- ReadBib(system.file("Bib", "RJC.bib", package = "RefManageR"))[[seq_len(20)]]
BibOptions(check.entries = FALSE, style = "markdown", cite.style = "authoryear",
           bib.style = "numeric")

This is an R Markdown document. This is an example of a citation in the text r Citet(bib, "loh"). Now we cite in parentheses r AutoCite(bib, "baez/online", before = "e.g., "). Notice the useful 'b' beside the year in the citation. You can change the default options in a setup chunk at the start of the document or at any other point using the BibOptions function or by specifying options as a list in the .opts argument to the cite functions. In this example we mix "authoyear" citation style with "numeric" bibliography style.

Note that I do not only have to cite by key, and may use all the features of the SearchBib function to index into the BibEntry object. Here are all the entries of type Report in my bibliography r Citet(bib, bibtype = "Report", .opts = list(hyperlink = "to.doc")). The hyperlinks will take you to their entry in the bibliography. The link for r TextCite(bib, "markey") will open the document in a new window; this is the default behaviour, if a link is available (see ?open.BibEntry). The following citation has no hyperlink r AutoCite(bib, location = "Uppsala", .opts = list(hyperlink = FALSE)). You can also embed plots, to make the page longer:

plot(cars)

r NoCite(bib = bib, title = "CTAN")I've added a reference to CTAN without citing it using the NoCite function. Now I'm adding a reference from another bibliography (a second BibEntry object) r AutoCite(bib2, title = "binary longitudinal data"). Look at all my Aristotle: r TextCite(bib, author = "Aristotle").

plot(cars)

Some papers on the arXiv are r TextCite(bib, eprinttype = "arxiv").
