autobiblatex is a commandline application that allows one to quickly generate a biblatex database given only a folder of pdf files. autobiblatex uses crossref where possible and a heuristic based on the metadata where it is not.
autobiblatex's development and target platform is UNIX, but it should compile on nigh any platform
- git
- c++20 capable compiler (GCC, CLANG)
- cmake 3.20 or later
- pkg-config (or change/hardcode the paths in CMakeLists.txt)
- libpoppler
- curl
In a console do:
- git clone https://git-ce.rwth-aachen.de/carl_philipp.klemm/eisgenerator.git
- cd eisgenerator
- mkdir build
- cd build
- cmake ..
- make -j8
