Read and write BibTeX in exactly the same order (including author)
Issue #162
new
I want to read (modify) and write a BibTeX file all while preserving the order of all fields (to help version management).
Here is my bib-file:
@article{foo2022,
title = {I want to preserve all order to help version management},
author = {Foo, B.},
year = {2022},
journal = {Bitbucket},
volume = {1},
pages = {1--2},
}
Now
from pybtex.database import parse_file
bib_data = parse_file('library.bib')
print(bib_data)
indeed preserves order
BibliographyData(
entries=OrderedCaseInsensitiveDict([
('foo2022', Entry('article',
fields=[
('title', 'I want to preserve all order to help version management'),
('year', '2022'),
('journal', 'Bitbucket'),
('volume', '1'),
('pages', '1--2')],
persons=OrderedCaseInsensitiveDict([('author', [Person('Foo, B.')])])))]),
preamble=[])
However
print(bib_data.to_string('bibtex'))
brings forward author
@article{foo2022,
author = "Foo, B.",
title = "I want to preserve all order to help version management",
year = "2022",
journal = "Bitbucket",
volume = "1",
pages = "1--2"
}
(there might be options for this, there is an argument **kwargs
but I could not find what options I can use)
