gris is a minimalistic tool to read, parse, and
write reference data in
Refman RIS format.
RIS format codifies bibliographic data using a series of tags. There are variations among publishers: this module supports both the original standard and the RIS output by Web of Knowledge.
This module has been updated and tested in Python 3.7+. The documentation can be found in readthedocs.
Install gris directly using pip:
pip install gris
python -m gris myrefs.ris AB
retrieves and prints out the contents of the tag AB (usually used for
abstracts) for all the publications in a reference file.
from gris import read_ris
refs = read_ris("myrefs.ris")
For a more detailed description of gris and its capabilities check
the documentation.
gris was developed by AYG during his personal time, as a way of transforming
bibliographic data into more machine-readable formats and preserving
old bibliographic data. It eventually found its way to various publications where the work required processing large amounts of bibliographic data.
gris imports RIS files with multiple references into a list of dictionaries.
