doi2bib and friends

This repository provides scripts for converting from either Digital Object Identifier (DOI) or Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to BibTeX, or from DOI to plain text.

doi2bib

Convert Digital Object Identifier (DOI) to BibTeX using crosscite.org. DOIs are received and the corresponding BibTeX entries are output.

Inspired by https://gist.github.com/mlund/4609288 and http://www.doi2bib.org/.

October 16, 2017: http://www.doi2bib.org/ seems not to be working any more.

doi2text

Convert Digital Object Identifier (DOI) to plain text using crosscite.org. DOIs are received and the corresponding text entries are output. In theory, all the styles available at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles can be used.

url2bib

Convert Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to BibTeX using pure Bash. URLs are received and the corresponding BibTeX entries are output.

(This is made to be used exactly as one would use doi2bib.)

Installation

After downloading the tarball and using cd to go where the files are, simply do a sudo make install and everything will be installed.

Usage

$ doi2bib 10.1021/acs.jpcc.8b06244 10.1021/acscatal.9b00210
