## Installation
|

|
||||
You can install the latest stable version of `pubs` through Pypi, with:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pip install pubs
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can:
|
||||
|
||||
- install the latest development version with pip:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/pubs/pubs
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

- clone the repository and install it manually:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell

git clone https://github.com/pubs/pubs

## Getting started
|
||||
|
||||
Create your library (by default, goes to `~/.pubs/`).
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pubs init
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Import existing data from bibtex (pubs will try to automatically copy documents defined as 'file' in bibtex):
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pubs import path/to/collection.bib
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
or for a .bib file containing a single reference:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pubs add reference.bib -d article.pdf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
pubs can also automatically retrieve the bibtex from a doi:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pubs add -D 10.1007/s00422-012-0514-6 -d article.pdf
|
||||
```
|

If you use latex, you can automatize references, by running `pubs export > references.bib` each time you update your library, which also fits well as a `makefile` rule.
|

|

This ensures that your reference file is always up-to-date; you can cite a paper in your manuscript a soon as you add it in pubs. This means that if you have, for instance, a DOI on a webpage, you only need to do:

```shell

You can attach a document to a reference:

```
|
||||
```shell
|

pubs doc add Loeb2012_downloaded.pdf Loeb_2012

pubs doc open Loeb_2012

pubs doc open --with lp Loeb_2012 # Opens the document with `lp` to actually print it.

## Multiple pubs Repositories
|
||||
|
||||
You may want to have different pubs repositories, for different projects. To create an alternate repository:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
pubs --config /path/to/config init --pubsdir /path/to/desired_repository_directory
|
||||
```
|
||||
The configuration file and repository will be automatically created.
|
||||
|

Then you can add papers to the new repository:
|
||||
```
|
||||
```shell
|

pubs --config /path/to/config add -D 10.1007/s00422-012-0514-6

A useful thing might be to define an alias in your shell:
|

```
|
||||
```shell
|

alias pubs2="pubs --config /path/to/config"

The first command defines a new subcommand: `pubs open --with evince` will be executed when `pubs evince` is typed.

The second starts with a bang: `!`, and is treated as a shell command. If other arguments are provided they are passed to the shell command as in a script. In the example above the `count` alias can take arguments that are be passed to the `pubs list -k` command, hence enabling filters like `pubs count year:2012`.
