bibget

CI crates.io dependency status MIT

Command line interface tool for generating BibTex entries from DOIs. Written in Rust and based on the doi2bib crate.

Installation

Pre-compiled binaries for MacOS and Linux are available from the releases page and do not require Rust to be installed.

bibget can be installed from source using cargo. The most stable version is hosted on crates.io.

# release version from crates.io
cargo install bibget 

You can also install from GitHub if you want access to the latest pre-release (likely with newer dependencies) or development (more experimental) builds.

# pre-release version
cargo install --git https://github.com/nathansam/bibget.git bibget 
# development version 
cargo install --git https://github.com/nathansam/bibget.git --branch dev bibget 

Usage

bibget is a command line tool that takes a DOI as an argument and returns output in BibTex format. Multiple DOIs can be passed via whitespace separation.

bibget supports an optional -f/--file flag for writing the BibTex to file. If the specified file does not already exist, it will be created first. Entries will be appended to the end of existing files instead.
