Convert Crossref API data to bibnets format — read

Takes the output of rcrossref::cr_works() (the $data tibble/data frame) and converts it to the standardized bibnets format.

Usage

read_crossref(data)

Arguments

data: A data frame from cr_works(...)$data.

Value

A data frame in the standard bibnets format: id, title, year, journal, doi, cited_by_count, abstract, type, plus list-columns authors, references, and keywords.

Examples

# Construct a minimal data frame matching the structure of
# rcrossref::cr_works(...)$data. In practice, pass that data frame directly.
raw <- data.frame(
  doi = c("10.1/a", "10.2/b"),
  title = c("First paper", "Second paper"),
  issued = c("2022-01-01", "2021-06-15"),
  container.title = c("Journal A", "Journal B"),
  is.referenced.by.count = c("3", "9"),
  type = c("journal-article", "journal-article"),
  stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)
raw$author <- list(
  data.frame(given = c("Jane", "Anne"),
             family = c("Smith", "Jones"),
             stringsAsFactors = FALSE),
  data.frame(given = "Mark", family = "Davis", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
)
data <- read_crossref(raw)
head(data[, c("id", "title", "year", "journal")])
#>       id        title year   journal
#> 1 10.1/a  First paper 2022 Journal A
#> 2 10.2/b Second paper 2021 Journal B
