Overwrite existing data model in tool mode #301
Comments
I am about to overhaul the datamodel merging code and I will check this too. |
Should be fixed in 2.15 DEV - see what you think. Bibtex ouput now checks to see if |
@moewew @plk I was the one complaining at https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/265895/35864, so thanks! I use the holidays to clean up my huge bib-file :) |
Works very well in the tests I came up with. Thanks you very much. |
Indeed, works also for me. I am using this to make biber spit out a (legacy) bibtex-compatible bib-file. Thanks! |
Great - but when will the version with this fix be released? |
I think we will be releasing a new version fairly soon. |
It was pointed out to me today that my answer to https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/265895/35864 on TeX.SX ceased to work properly, so I tried to make it work with newer Biber versions.
Consider the following
.bib
fileaugustus.bib
With
biber-datea.conf
produces
as expected.
But if I now try to overwrite
year
andmonth
inbiber-date.conf
the output of
is
not quite as hoped.
Would it be possible to get the expected output here as well.
I realise that
year
andmonth
are tricky beasts, but especially in the light of #275 I expected my.conf
to override the existing data model and makeyear
andmonth
normal fields that can and will be output as usual.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
