Search by authors name/year

Asked by simon

Dear all!

Great to have such a plugin for JabRef, good work! A possible extension would be to also allow the authors name/year to search in the ADS, eg you would enter "Miller,1990" and get the references for that person/year!

How hard would this be to implement?

Thanks & Cheers,

Simon Bruderer

Hi, Simon,

Sorry for the late reply. I didn't notice this question.

Thank you for your suggestion. I previously thought that searching was difficult to implement, but now I feel that this seems not so difficult. I will try to implement this. See http://ads.nao.ac.jp/abs_doc/help_pages/linking.html for detail API.

Currently I don't use search interface of ADS. I access directly to the specific entry since I can easily create bibcode(which is needed for direct accessing to the entry) from DOI or arXiv ID.

Thank you for your feedback and for trying my software.
