Use R scripts to manage reference in Tiddlywiki

Following the discussion here, my tiddlywiki

  • is configured under node.js in my laptop
  • is using TW-Refnotes to manage reference
  • creates a tiddler for each colleague with links to multiple sources (e.g. ORCID, Scopus, Google Scholar, ResearcherID, homepage)

I write a few R scripts to

  • author publications from multiple sources through adding colleague tags
  • list all references for a publication
  • other minor functions.

I converted them into a R package and shared them on github. It might be useful for community in my similar situation.

Just keep in mind I only test it for my only situation. This package will update tiddlers depending on function. Create a backup and test before using it.

Thanks for sharing @Zheng_Bangyou! This is an interesting space; perhaps the scripts tag you used for the thread can be reserved for this kind of external-scripts-that-interact-with-tiddlywiki

Great job! Thank you for sharing.

Hi @Zheng_Bangyou - did you take down your github?

Sorry I make some changes to repo through moving it into privately but forget to bring it back.

Now I bring it back to public but archive this package.

The main reason is my organisation recently has a big change about the subscription of publication dataset. Lots of functions in this package are not working anymore. Feel free to fork and modify it.

Now I am working on my chrome extension (GitHub - byzheng/PubConnector: Chrome extension for researcher) and move all features from R into js.

Hope I can work out soon.
