Re: Org-cite follow function for ebib
If every thing is working right, you can get the file that a key is in like this: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (cl-loop for (file . entries) in (org-cite-basic--parse-bibliography) when (gethash "some-key" entries) return file) #+END_SRC This returns the first file that matches.

Re: Org-cite follow function for ebib
I don't have a super specific suggestion ATM, but will just make the following observation: John Kitchin and I have been working on respective processors, and they are modular enough that: 1) one can mix-and-match across projects 2) one can customize within each follow processor; for org-ref-cite, you can extend its hydra-based follow UI using hydra+, and for bibtex-actions you can write and use your own keymap to tell embark which commands to use for it's menu. Upshot: a function that takes a key (or list of keys, as with bibtex-completion, which is what I use behind-the-scenes) is the starting point for a basic single action follow processor. But it should be easily incorporated into more feature-full UIs. On Mon, Aug 9, 2021 at 6:45 AM Joost Kremers wrote: > > Hi Thomas & others, > > On Sat, Aug 07 2021, Thomas S.

Re: Org-cite follow function for ebib
Aloha Joost, Following some pointers from Eric and Bruce I have this in my configuration and it seems to work fine, though I haven't had a chance to use it very much. ;; Citations (defun tsd/choose-file (candidates) (interactive) (org-completing-read "Choose file: " candidates)) (defun tsd/ebib-follow (datum _) "Follow citation or citation reference DATUM. When DATUM is a citation reference, open ebib to the entry referencing the citation key." (let* ((key (if (eq 'citation-reference (org-element-type datum)) (org-element-property :key datum) (user-error "Not a citation reference"))) (files (org-cite-list-bibliography-files)) (file (if (> (length files) 1) (tsd/choose-file files) (nth 0 files (ebib file key))) (require 'oc-biblatex) (require 'oc-csl) (org-cite-register-processor 'ebib :follow #'tsd/ebib-follow) (setq org-cite-follow-processor 'ebib) Also, it was easy to configure ebib to insert citations with the org-cite syntax.

Unfortunately, I haven't had the time yet to update Ebib for the new functionality. Ebib needs to implement a follow processor so that `org-open-at-point` takes you to the entry in Ebib. > Surprisingly (to me), M-x ebib sometimes displays the entry for the key > at point, too. That's because when you start Ebib with `M-x ebib` (or a key bound to that function, of course), it checks to see if point is at something that looks like a key and tries to find a corresponding entry in the current database. That functionality is not customisable and not very well implemented, so it doesn't always work. (Also, if point is at the `cite` prefix, it doesn't work.) -- Joost Kremers Life has its moments
Re: Org-cite follow function for ebib
Yes, I have set the basic follow processor and org-open-at-point takes me to the .bib file at the entry for the key at point. Surprisingly (to me), M-x ebib sometimes displays the entry for the key at point, too. All the best, Tom Bruce D'Arcus writes: > On Fri, Aug 6, 2021 at 12:47 PM Thomas S.

Just to make sure I'm being clear, I mean this in your config: (setq org-cite-follow-processor 'basic) ... and then, when point is on citation and/or key: M-x org-open-at-point ... which is what calls the follow processor. If that doesn't work, you can probably look at the oc-basic code and see how to adapt it for ebib. Bruce
Re: Org-cite follow function for ebib
Aloha Bruce, So, I tried calling ebib() with point on a key and it works in some instances but not in others. So far, it works sometimes on plain cite: keys, but never on styles or variants, like cite/a/f: It would be magical if something this simple would do the trick.

So does the oc-basic follow function not provide this? I guess I'm unclear if one can configure ebib to open bib files by default. If yes, I would think oc-basic would be sufficient. If not, FWIW, org-ref-cite-follow is extensible via hydra+ (as is bibtex-actions-follow via a custom embark keymap). Depends if you want just a single function to run, or you want a menu of choices.

Re: Org-cite follow function for ebib
Aloha Eric, That function opens a window on the ebib database and displays the record with the key at point. At this point, I'm just checking to see if someone has a similar function working for the new org-cite framework. I do appreciate the pointers to functions that do something similar outside ebib. They'll be useful if I try to write a function myself. All the best, Tom Eric S Fraga writes: > On Thursday, 5 Aug 2021 at 10:12, Thomas S.

For me, org-open-at-point, bound to C-c C-o, on a [cite:@key] entry, will open the bibliography file and place me at the correct entry. What is it you want to do beyond this?

I want to open the bib entry, something similar to org-ebib-open, which works on Org mode links.
