Filter a Data Frame of Citations and Return the Entries as a Character
Source:R/filter_refs.R
filter_refs.Rdfilter_refs() is a convenience function I wrote for
filtering a data frame of citations returning the entries as a valid
.bib entry (as a character vector). I wrote this for more easily passing
on citations to the print_refs() function also included in this package.
Arguments
- bibdat
a data frame of citations, like the one created by the bib2df package
- criteria
criteria, specified as a character vector, by which to filter the data frame of citations
- type
the particular type of citation entry on which to filter. Defaults to "bibtexkey" (which filters based on a column of unique citation keys). When
type == "year", the function filters on a character vector of years.
Value
filter_refs() takes a data frame of citations, like the one
created by the bib2df package, and returns a character vector
(amounting to a valid .bib entry) of citations the user wants. This can
then be easily passed to the print_refs() function also included in this
package.
Details
filter_refs() assumes some familiarity with BibTeX, .bib
entries, and depends on the bib2df package.
Examples
# Based on `stevepubs` configuration, filter on `BIBTEXKEY` where
# the citation key matches one of these.
filter_refs(stevepubs, c("miller2017etst", "miller2017etjc", "miller2013tdpi"))
