search for: bibentry

I have two versions of a bibtex database which have gotten badly out of sync. I need to find find all the entries in bib2 which are not contained in bib1, according to their bibtex keys. But I can't figure out how to extract a list of the bibentry keys in these databases. A minor question: Is there someway to prevent read.bib from ignoring entries that do not contain all required fields? A suggestion: it would be nice if bibtex provided some extractor functions for bibentry fields. > bib1 <- read.bib("C:/localtexmf/bibtex/b...

Hi, Some 'bibentry' methods have the side effect of changing the default bibstyle. Background: tools::bibstyle() defines and registers bibtex styles for formatting 'bibentry' objects. It optionally (and by default) sets a default style. It is also used to get a particular style. The last feature of bib...

Hi, I use Sweave extensively in my consulting work. When submitting reports to the scientists I work with I like to use the citation function to reference any packages I use, to give proper acknowledgement. I noted in the documentation that a citation inherits from bibentry, and indeed, > citr<- citation() > class(citr) [1] "citation" "bibentry" However, following this line I would assume citation should fully inherit the methods of bibentry. But that is not the case, > print(citr, style="latex") still gives style='citat...

Dear Colleagues, I would like to provide a CITATION file for my package nat.nblast [1]. I have the correct citation in BibTeX format [2]. How can I convert this BibTeX to the format needed by R for a package CITATION file (I have a lot of other packages needing citations ...). I think what I need is the opposite of RefManageR::toBiblatex [3]. This seems like it should be a common need, so I

...Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pcbi.1003118}.> Warning message: In parse_Rd(Rd, encoding = encoding, fragment = fragment, ...) : <connection>:5: unexpected END_OF_INPUT ' ' A work-around is, apparently, to quote the %, \\%3A etc., but is this the intention? Also, citEntry points to bibentry points to *Entry Fields*, but the 'url' tag is not mentioned there, even though url appears in the examples; if the list of supported tags is not easy to enumerate, perhaps some insight can be provided at this point as to how the supported tags are determined? Thanks Martin Morgan --...

...w can I convert this > BibTeX to the format needed by R for a package CITATION file (I have a > lot of other packages needing citations ...). (1) You can use read.bib() from the "bibtex" package to read the .bib file containing the relevant reference. (2) This gives you a "bibentry" object that can be turned into the R code generating it with format(..., style = "R") from the basic "utils" package. (3) Then you can writeLines() this R code on the console or writeLines(..., "CITATION") to a CITATION file. (4) Optionally you can also incl...

Back in 2010 I raised this issue, and there was some discussion, https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-November/058987.html The goal, then, as now is to have a way to produce a bibtex-clean .bib file (i.e., not requiring manual editing except in unusual circumstances) reflecting installed packages for use in writing where one often needs/wants to cite all packages used in a given

In R 3.4.0 RC, argument list of 'c' as S4 generic function has become (x, ...) . However, "S4 methods" section in documentation of 'c' (c.Rd) is not updated yet. Also, in R 3.4.0 RC, 'c' method of class "Date" ('c.Date') is still not explicitly documented.

By "an argument named 'use.names' is included for concatenation", I meant something like this, that someone might try. > c(as.Date("2016-01-01"), use.names=FALSE) use.names "2016-01-01" "1970-01-01" See, 'use.names' is in the output. That's precisely because 'c.Date' doesn't have 'use.names', so
