Citedrive bibliography not rendering in Quarto book html

[loreabad6]

Bug description

CiteDrive generates a URL that can normally be used within Quarto documents. But for HTML books, the reference.qmd section won't render. This works fine with PDF. Also only rendering index.qmd formats the inline citations correctly.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a New Project, Quarto Book in RStudio.
2. Use the following _quarto.yml file:

project:
  type: book

book:
  title: "test"
  author: "Norah Jones"
  date: "21/02/2024"
  chapters:
    - index.qmd
    - intro.qmd
    - summary.qmd
    - references.qmd

bibliography: 
    - references.bib
    - "https://api.citedrive.com/bib/fe951e8e-8d9a-4b1e-9242-7a5591d4ca2b/references.bib?x=eyJpZCI6ICJmZTk1MWU4ZS04ZDlhLTRiMWUtOTI0Mi03YTU1OTFkNGNhMmIiLCAidXNlciI6ICIyNTY4IiwgInNpZ25hdHVyZSI6ICJkMWUyZWQ5NjE0MDdjOGVmNTIxMzEwMmE5ZTYwM2E5YzI3ZGY1ODc0YWJhNjJkZjU4YzU4ZmZiZjVkYTFjNjg0In0=/bibliography.bib"

format:
  html:
    theme: cosmo
  pdf: default

3. Contents of index.qmd:

# Preface {.unnumbered}

@Harvey_2006 

[@Goodchild_2019]

Expected behavior

Bibliography from CiteDrives renders normally

Actual behavior

Rendering the HTML book fails with the error:

Could not fetch https:/api.citedrive.com/bib/xxx/bibliography.bib" "URL must be absolute"

I can reproduce. Here is the stack trace:

For HTML book we do a specific processing and I am not sure we handle URL correctly or just have a wrong detection here

quarto-cli/src/project/types/book/book-bibliography.ts

Lines 256 to 262 in 05a2985

	const biblioPaths = bibliography.map((biblio) => {
	if (isAbsolute(biblio)) {
	return relative(context.dir, biblio);
	} else {
	return biblio;
	}
	});

bibliography is wrong somethow here for such projects:

0: 'C:\\Users\\chris\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\quarto\\test-quarto-book\\references.bib'
1: 'C:\\Users\\chris\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\quarto\\test-quarto-book\\https:\\api.citedrive.com\\bib\\<truncated....>

I'll have a look

Thanks for the report!

The issue seems to come from our pandoc conversion of the reference

We do use this markdown

---
bibliography:
  - references.bib
  - >-
    https:/api.citedrive.com/bib/fe951e8e-8d9a-4b1e-9242-7a5591d4ca2b/references.bib?x=eyJpZCI6ICJmZTk1MWU4ZS04ZDlhLTRiMWUtOTI0Mi03YTU1OTFkNGNhMmIiLCAidXNlciI6ICIyNTY4IiwgInNpZ25hdHVyZSI6ICJkMWUyZWQ5NjE0MDdjOGVmNTIxMzEwMmE5ZTYwM2E5YzI3ZGY1ODc0YWJhNjJkZjU4YzU4ZmZiZjVkYTFjNjg0In0=/bibliography.bib
nocite: '@Harvey_2006, @Goodchild_2019, @knuth84'

to run on it

pandoc --from markdown --to html --citeproc

And this is what is failing (with bare pandoc to).

There is a missing / at the https:// so we are messing with the URL.

Issue is correct support for url in book project bibliography
