How to automatically turn BibTex quoting into something Zotero does?

Question

I have a citation system that publishes user notes on the wiki ( Researchr ). Programmatically, I have access to the complete BibTeX record of each record, and I also show it on separate pages ( for example , click BibTeX). This is in the interest of simplifying for users of another link manager to automatically import a quote from the paper that interests them. I would also like other quote leaders, especially Zotero, to be able to automatically identify and import the quote.

Zotero lists several ways to expose metadata that he will understand, including meta tags with RDF, COiNS, Dublin Core, and unAPI. Is there a Ruby library for automatically converting BibTeX to any of these standards - or to the Javascript library? I could create something, but if something existed, it would be much more reliable (BibTeX had so many types of publications and fields, etc.).

Answer 1

There is an available BibTeX2RDF converter here , maybe this is what you need.

Answer 2

unAPI is not a data standard - it is a way of serving data (for Zotero and other programs). Zotero imports Bibtex, so serving Bibtex through unAPI works fine. Inspire is an example of a site that does this: http://inspirehep.net/
