API

The Bibliograpy API allows to manage bibliographic centralized references using decorators.

Hence, is it possible to factorize all bibliographic sources as variables in a single module, using them as arguments of decorators.

"""The bibliography module."""

from bibliograpy.api import TechReport

IAU_2006_B1 = TechReport.generic(
    cite_key='iau_2006_b1',
    author='',
    institution='iau',
    title='Adoption of the P03 Precession Theory and Definition of the Ecliptic',
    year=2006)

"""The bibliography_client module using the bibliography.py module."""

from bibliograpy.api import reference

from bibliography import IAU_2006_B1

@reference(IAU_2006_B1)
def my_function():
    """My my_function documentation."""
    # some implementation here using the reference given as a parameter to the decorator

The usage of the decorator has two purposes.

First, to use a bibliographic reference defined once and for all, centralized and reusable.

Second, to implicitly add to the documentation of the decorated entity a bibliographical section.

import bibliography_client

>>> help(my_function)
Help on function my_function in module bibliography_client

my_function()
    My my_function documentation.

    Bibliography: Adoption of the P03 Precession Theory and Definition of the Ecliptic [iau_2006_b1]

Preprocessing tool

Bibliograpy allows generating a source code bibliograpy from a resource bibliography file.

Bibliograpy process supports bibliography files in yaml format. Each bibliographic entry contains three fields. The type field only supports the misc value. The key fields represents the bibliographic entry unique key (id). The title field represents the readable form or the entry. For instance:

- entry_type: misc
  cite_key: nasa
  title: NASA
- entry_type: misc
  cite_key: iau
  title: International Astronomical Union

This bibliography file can be preprocessend by the bibliograpy process tool.

bibliograpy process

This preprocessing produces the corresponding bibliographic references that can be used as bibliograpy decorator arguments.

from bibliograpy.api import Misc

NASA = Misc.generic(cite_key='nasa',
                    title='NASA')

IAU = Misc.generic(cite_key='iau',
                   title='International Astronomical Union')
