💖 biburl2doi — the manual, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the biburl2doi(1) page from the LATEX CROSSREFWARE fam ✨ this is the one that takes your ugly little URLs and glow-ups them into DOIs, no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

biburl2doi.pl — converts URLs that point at doi.org into actual DOIs 🦋

like. that's the whole job. and she does it flawlessly.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

biburl2doi [-D] [-o output] bib_file

that's it, that's the summoning ritual 🎀 hand her a bib_file and she handles the rest.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -D — do NOT delete the URLs that got converted to DOIs. so if you're the type who wants to keep the receipts (both the URL and the shiny new DOI), this is your flag, periodt 💖
  • -o output — the output file, obviously 💁‍♀️ and if you don't use this option? the name for the output file is formed by adding _cleaned to the input file. she names it herself. she's independent like that 👑

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

so here's the tea ☕: the script recognizes URL fields of the kind "http://dx.doi.org" — and their variants, because of course there are variants, there are always variants 😭 — and converts them into DOI fields. it's giving ✨research efficiency✨. it's giving 🌈clean bibliography🌈. the way that she just finds them and fixes them? obsessed.
