sure, since bibliography data is really not anything sensitive or private, I just copypasted a sample of a few entries from my library: https://pastebin.com/b8mGbY7Z
 
For an example PDF, you could add this as new entry: https://doi.org/10.1080/03085140902786827
and then add the PDF here: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/249006197_The_Role_of_Venture_Capital_Firms_in_Silicon_Valley's_Complex_Innovation_Network
 

 
 

Over last couple of weeks, I compiled a bunch of features related to Obsidian. It's already been tested by a bunch of people from the Obsidian Community, so should be rather stable. Noticed at some point that I only shared it in the Obsidian Forum and not the Alfred Forum, so here it is. 😅

sure, I can remove auto-updates from all my workflows

GitHub Repo no forum link no dependencies (other than neovim itself, of course) I am the author of the workflow. uses the new Alfred 5 User Configuration.  

Yes, please; this is a high quality and most excellent workflow for academic users!

@aaa When you have an issue with a Workflow, open the debugger, set the log output to “All Information”, perform the failing action, and post the output. Otherwise it’s impossible to know what may be going wrong.

Could you please explain (or point me to documentation on) how to open a reference in BibDesk using this workflow? I tried setting the `open_entries_in` environment variable to `/Applications/BibDesk.app` (the path to BibDesk), but no luck. 
 
Forgive me if this should be obvious. I bought the power-pack just for citations and this is the first workflow I've installed. Going to try ZotHero next.
 
EDIT: not sure what changed, but it's working now!

I'm a idiot, I forgot to install Obsidian plugins Advanced URI & Metadata Extractor , problem solved, tks!

Usage

Paste clipboard entries sequentially via the Hotkey or Snippet Trigger. Each call pastes the preceding clipboard entry.

Copying from the most recent item restarts if the last paste is older than the timeout minutes defined in the Workflow’s Configuration. A force reset can be triggered with the paste keyword by pressing ⌘⌥⌃↩.

Update (2022-09-13): Alfred 5 Workflow configuration is now supported. So is eta-template as citation syntax.
Update (2022-05-20): Now also works with Multi-Markdown, and Latex citation syntax. Wikilinks and tags are supported as well.

This is a citation picker for academics that write in markdown. I am proud to say that this is the most performant and most feature-rich citation picker that I know of! 💪
 
Inserts Pandoc Citation Syntax ("[@citekey]") by default (Can be be changed to LaTeX, MMD, Wikilinks, tags, or eta templates). Works with page numbers & multiple citations. works systemwide, in case you also work in another Markdown app. smart search: search for citekeys, authors, title, publication, keywords (tags), include/exclude authors in et al, tab-completion, ... feature-rich: paste single-entry bibliographies, remove entries from your library without opening a reference management app, open URLs, open or create literature notes, search for .csl files online... Obsidian integration: When located in an Obsidian vault, literature notes will automatically be opened/created in Obsidian. (Otherwise, they will be opened in the default app for markdown files.) blazingly fast: considerably quicker than other citation pickers (~200ms to fully reload a library with ~4000 entries on my machine)  easy setup: no dependencies, no required plugins, no complicated setup. Just enter the path to your .bib file and you are good to go.

this is such a great workflow - thank you so much. i found your theme as well.. they are equally good. donated. thank you so much for creating these useful tools.

I removed it and downloaded it again and now it works!

@iandolThank you! 😊
 
The workflow basically parses the .bib file and caches that, yes. on every run, the shell script checks whether whether the bib file has more recently been modified when the cache file, and if so, re-creates a new cache. So it will pick up new references as soon as they are added to the bib file, yes.

Wow, i only just noticed this. I use Bookends which now auto-syncs to a bib file. My database is ~8000 items. This workflow is super-quick!!! I assumed it was using some sort of native code voodoo, but no, this is made from well-made shell scripts and JXA javascript. Really nice feature set, and includes cheatsheets and other things like a CSL downloader. I would heartily concur this is the most elegant citation picker yet created!
 
Chris, what happens when the bib file is edited externally, does this workflow cache the contents or will it pick up new references when they are added?
 
Beautiful workflow, congratulations Chris!!!

This is amazing ! Thank you for sharing 

I just switched to Obsidian, thanks for this workflow!

Over last couple of weeks, I compiled a bunch of features related to Obsidian. It's already been tested by a bunch of people from the Obsidian Community, so should be rather stable. Noticed at some point that I only shared it in the Obsidian Forum and not the Alfred Forum, so here it is. 😅
 
(I know that there are other Obsidian workflows, but they mostly focus on stuff like daily notes and after all have a very different feature set.)
 
Full Feature List
- Search your Vault (Open note, append clipboard, open in new pane, copy hook, ...)
