Citext

---

This package provides:

• Bilingual bibliography hack before official Typst support for CSL-M (typst/citationberg#5)
• parencite citep like support

It calls citation.js from QuickJS and WebAssembly using https://github.com/lublak/typst-ctxjs-package.

It is designed for gb-t-7714-2015-numeric-bilingual.csl but may work for other CSL styles with numeric category.

Install

This package is experimental, please install it manually (https://github.com/typst/packages?tab=readme-ov-file#local-packages). You may also use https://github.com/Thumuss/utpm/ to install: cd package && utpm ws link.

Example

#import "package/lib.typ": *
#let bib = init-citation(read("test.bib"))
#show: show-extcite.with(bib: bib)



@texbook
@zjugradthesisrules
@latex2e

@zjugradthesisrules<citea>

@zjugradthesisrules<citep>

@lesk:1977<citet>

@latex:companion<citef>

// #show bibliography: none

#bibliography("test.bib", style: "gb-7714-2015-numeric")

= 参考文献

#extbib(bib)

Mode

init-citation supports 3 modes: "lazy" (default), "eager" and "stable", you can change the mode with mode: e.g. init-citation(read("test.bib"), mode: "eager").

• "lazy": a citation will be processed when it is used. It depends on the Typst caching mechanism to avoid duplicated computation.
• "eager": all citations in your BibTeX will be processed at once in individual.
• "stable": all citations in your BibTeX will be processed at once as a whole.

Both "lazy" and "eager" will benefit from the incremental compilation capability of Typst, and run in multi thread. You may need to try out which is faster for your document. To use "lazy" or "eager" mode, your BibTeX must be formatted such that there must be no space before the @ of each item @article{, so that the items can be split.

If you still meet any issue, you could try the "stable" mode, which does not depend on the heuristic splitting. However, it cannot perform incremental compilation, and can be very slow.

Multiple bibliography

citext supports multiple bibliography, you can use

#new-citext-session()

to start a new session.

You need to set gen-id: true if the style is numeric:

#show: show-extcite.with(bib: bib, gen-id: true)
