[hakyll] Loading bibliographies specified in page metadata

[a***@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use Hakyll to track research notebooks; basically, I have a
.bib file with a big dump of relevant papers, and keep org files with
references and comments on selected papers.

Previously I used a single bib file to track everything I commented on,
using

match "notebooks/*.org" $ do
route $ setExtension "html"
compile $ pandocBiblioCompiler "csl/apa-cv-inline.csl"
"bib/notebooks.bib"

= loadAndApplyTemplate "templates/notebook.html" postCtx
= loadAndApplyTemplate "templates/default.html"

(topCtx `mappend` defaultContext)

= relativizeUrls

But I'd like to be able to specify a bibliography in the org file's YAML
metadata, instead of hard-coding a single one. I've previously loaded
metadata into a context so it can be used in a template, but I don't see
how to load it to use as an argument to pandocBiblioCompiler. Is there a
direct way to do this?

Thanks.

You can use `getMetadataField` to pull something from the metadata.
E.g. in your case:

match "notebooks/*.org" $ do
route $ setExtension "html"
compile $ do
identifier <- getUnderlying
mbBibFile <- getMetadataField identifier "bibfile"
bibFile <- case mbBibFile of
Nothing -> fail "no bibfile specified" -- Or a default
Just bib -> return bib
pandocBiblioCompiler "csl/apa-cv-inline.csl" bibFile

= loadAndApplyTemplate "templates/notebook.html" postCtx
= loadAndApplyTemplate "templates/default.html"

(topCtx `mappend` defaultContext)

= relativizeUrls

And then just specify the `bibfile` in the metadata

---
bibfile: bib/notebooks.bib
---

...

Hope this helps,
Jasper

Perfect, thanks. The identifier was what I was missing when I tried to
figure it out. Works great.
