Re: [NTG-context] Citeproc-lua

Hi, I had a quick look at this and it seems very extensible if-not-quite ConTeXt-ready right away. On the input side, it reads a LaTeX .aux file to parse things like options, databases, and requested citations. For this, it uses a dedicated “citeproc” lua script that should be easy to modify/copy for someone who knows what is actually in the ConTeXt .tuc file. On the output side, it uses a lookup table to generate the desired markup (in citeproc-formats.lua). Right now, there are definitions provided for HTML and LaTeX, but that is very simple to extend. There is a LaTeX package for the integration (making sure the right commands appear in the aux file, option processing, et cetera), and that file I do not understand *at all*. It seems to be completely isolated from the core citeproc processing, though. Very promising stuff, I think. But: I personally do not understand how to do the integration with ConTeXt’s new biblio system. I only understand half of what ConTeXt does these days, and much less of what the LaTeX package is trying to achieve i.r.t. options. Best wishes, Taco

Hi,

I just came across this: https://github.com/zepinglee/citeproc-lua Thats’s an lua implemenation of the CSL language targeting LaTeX. I don’t know if the processor itself contains any LaTeX specific code, but it looks like the integration basically happens here :https://github.com/zepinglee/citeproc-lua/blob/main/latex/citation-style-lan... So, at least in theory, shouldn’t it be possible to make this workable also with context?
