SUPERBIB is dedicated to bibliography and users of a project …

Imagine you want to know how many publications have been written using your tools or your results : SUPERBIB is for you !

Using a XML/DocBook bibliography file, you wil be able to produce HTML and PHP files to see :

  • All publications,
  • publications sorted by years with a graph,
  • publications sorted by authors in a big file,
  • publications by authors - one in a file,
  • relation ship between authors,
  • forms to help authors to update the bibliography.

As XML/DocBook bibliography is not very popular, SUPERBIB allows you to convert flat bibliography information (using copy/paste on an existing website for example) or bibtex into this format.

No database is involved in the process. HTML and PHP files just have to be upload to an existing website to be visible everywhere.

SUPERBIB needs xsltproc and xmlstarlet (XML processors).

If you need the publications/years graph, SUPERBIB needs ploticus.

If you want PDF outputs, SUPERBIB needs dblatex.

If your entry is flat text, SUPERBIB needs recode.

If your entry is bibtext, If your entry is flat text, SUPERBIB needs python.
