RISparser 0.3.1

Parse RIS files into dictionaries and providetheme via generator.

It reads RIS files and provides Python dictionaries via a generator. This works also for very larg RIS files.

Usage

>>> import os
>>> from RISparser import readris
>>> from pprint import pprint

>>> filepath = 'tests/example_full.ris'
>>> entries = readris(filepath)
>>> for entry in entries:
...     pprint(entry)

Override key mapping

The parser use a TAG_KEY_MAPPING, witch one can override by calling readris() with a custom mapping.

>>> import os
>>> from RISparser import readris, TAG_KEY_MAPPING
>>> from pprint import pprint

>>> filepath = 'tests/example_full.ris'
>>> mapping = TAG_KEY_MAPPING
>>> mapping["SP"] = "pages"
>>> entries = list(readris(filepath, mapping=mapping))
>>> pprint(entries[0])
