knitcitations (version 0.5-0)

Citations for knitr markdown files

Description

knitcitations provides the ability to create dynamic citations in which the bibliographic information is pulled from the web rather than having to be entered into a local database such as bibtex ahead of time. Knitcitations is primarily aimed at authoring in the R markdown format, and can provide outputs for web-based authoring such as linked text and tooltips over inline citations. Cite using a DOI, URL, or bibtex file key. See the package URL for details.
