bibliography basics

bibliography basics

[Hagmann Jörg]

I haven't used bibliographies before and have a few basic questions.
I am using mkiv, current version: 2011.04.03 22:32.

1. If I interpret the wiki pages correctly, the bib module is not needed for mkiv. On the other hand, examples I found in the archive have "\usemodule[bib]" included, although (I think) they were meant for mkiv, and leaving it out didn't affect the outcome. Question: has \usemodule[bib] no function in mkiv, never?

2. Where can I get documentation? Can Taco's bib-module documentation still be used? (In my experiments in some cases, not in others).

3. The "very basic example" on contextgarden (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography_mkiv#Example_of_use) gave numbers in the text and an alphabetic list at the end. I added  "\setuppublications[alternative=apa]". Would that be the way to do it? Please change it if there is something better (according to bibmod-doc, apa should be default).

Thanks, Jörg

The bibliography code was first a separate module which had been loaded with \usemodule[bib] but a while ago Hans added the code to contexts core. It’s no longer necessary to load a extra module for the functionality and when you have \usemodule[bib] in your document the line produce only a line at the console with the text “skipping obsolete module”.

Thanks, Wolfgang - and a follow-up question:

I have no time for a minimal example - if there is no quick and obvious answer, tell me and I'll prepare one later.
I have numbers in the text and want \invertedshortauthor in the publicationlist. But I get "First Name-Initial-Surname..." no matter what I try.  If I have Name-Year in the text, it comes out the way I want it.

I tried, e.g.:
-----------------
\setupbibtex[database={manuscript}]
\setuppublications[alternative=num,criterium=text,sorttype=cite]

\setuppublicationlist[author={\invertedshortauthor}] %should be default anyway?

\starttext
\placepublications[criterium=text]
\stoptext
-----------------

Thanks, Jörg

In TeX Live 2010, "texdoc bibmod" finds a 284752 byte  bibmod-doc.pdf
that is identical to the one available from the above URL.

Using the attached minimal example with biblio.bib, how can I get an alphabetical publication-list with surname-Initials etc. when using numbers in the thext? Shouldn't that be default? It is when using authoryear in the text (comment/uncomment the relevant lines).

\setupbibtex[sort=author]

Re: bibliography basics

Hi Taco,

Thanks, but my problem is not sorting, it is the appearance of the references in the list of references.

When using "\setuppublications[alternative=num,criterium=text,sorttype=cite]", I get the sequence "first name-surname- etc." no matter what I say in "setuppublicationlist[author=...]".

When using "\setuppublications[alternative=apa,sorttype=bbl]" , I get "surname-initials-etc." no matter what I say in "setuppublicationlist[author=...]".

How can I control the publicationlist? Probably something trivial.

Thanks, Jörg

Not really. The styles like 'num' and 'apa' follow predefined 
requirement by certain publishers, so they do thing in one particular 
way. If you want something else, you have to write a bibl-xxx.tex
file (the existing ones are in tex/context/bib).

Best wishes,
Taco

Have you seen the examples on p. 4-5 of the documentation of Taco's module? I don't have time to look at your examples, I can just give you code snippets from what I use, and it works:

\def\myinvertedauthor#1#2#3#4#5%
   {#3\bibalternative{surnamesep}%
    \bibdoif{#4}{#4\unskip}%
    \bibdoifelse{#2}{\bibalternative{vonsep}#2\unskip}{\unskip}%
    \bibdoifelse{#5}{\bibalternative{juniorsep}#5\unskip}{\unskip}%
}

\setuppublicationlist
   [width=24pt,
    artauthor=\myinvertedauthor,
    editor=\myinvertedauthor,
    author=\myinvertedauthor]

Hi Taco and Thomas,

Thank you very much for both the explanations and the solution.
