[Feature] Add typst CAYW citations

[Kasi07]

Debug log ID

TWJFUAK7-euc/6.7.169-7

What happened?

I would like to insert the citations into my typst document and thus would love to see typst support for the CAYW feature.

I noticed the pandoc uses the @citation-key syntax which also works with typst most of the time. But I would like to see the #cite(<citation-key>) syntax as this is much more versatile.

Also here is the link to the typst citation documentation.

typst doesn't do multi-cite then?

[Kasi07]

As per this comment:

Typst [...] merges adjacent cites if the CSL style requests it.

This update may name other issues, but the build just dropped here is for you; it just means problems already fixed in other issues have been folded into the work we are doing here. Install in Zotero by downloading test build 6.7.169.2817.5949, opening the Zotero "Tools" menu, selecting "Add-ons", open the gear menu in the top right, and select "Install Add-on From File...".

This is almost working. But the citation key has to be surrounded by '<' and '>'.

As the <label> syntax only supports certain characters (see here) maybe we could insert a check using a regex (In this case /^[a-zA-Z0-9_\-:.]+$/ if I stand correctly) to determine when to use the arguably uglier label("example") syntax.

[Kasi07]

Maybe this way?:

public async typst(citations, _options): Promise<string> {
    const regex = /^[a-zA-Z0-9_\-:.]+$/;
    return await citations.map(citation => 
        regex.test(citation.citationKey) 
            ? `#cite(<${citation.citationKey}>)` 
            : `#cite(label("${citation.citationKey}"))`
    ).join('\n');
}

I took that from your earlier implementation.
Also in typst new lines are generally ignored and this would make it look cleaner.
I just checked and putting them in separate lines works just fine.

Yeah my bad. New build incoming.

No locators or anything?

[retorquere]

supplement and form could be filled, we have that info

What do you mean by locators?

supplement and form could be filled, we have that info

The supplement could be useful.
As the form depends on the placement in the text I am unsure how we would know about it?

[retorquere]

Does typst accept #cite(<arrgh>,,"year") (or how else would I pass none for supplement)?

As the form depends on the placement in the text I am unsure how we would know about it?

You can suppress author in the cite, which would mean "year" for form

[Kasi07]

You can just use the key in typst like: #cite(<arrgh>, form: "year")
