P.A.P.E.R.

P.A.P.E.R. (Pablo's Artifacts and Papers Environment plus Repository) helps keep track of metadata about what you read, breadcrumbs to find it again. It helps with known-item search.

It contains:

  • Data model: a hierarchical attribute-value pair DAG, completely contained in a YAML file. BibTeX file + Mind Map You can define your own relations. It can be opened with any text editor, search inside of it, carry it in your phone, etc. It can be committed to version control.

  • File repository: a digital assets manager that copies PDFs and other source paper files into a unified folder-balanced hash-based space in your file system.

  • Search engine: for files in the paper file repository, the text is extracted and stored in an index that allows queries, including query-by-example, to find similar papers to existing ones.

Features

  • Exports to a static website.
  • Imports BibTeX files.
  • BibTeX generation.
  • Imports from plain text files annotated with custom codes.
  • Custom Jupyter widgets for editing and adding papers.
  • Easy to hack, only 10 python files and 2000+ loc.

pip install paperapp_DrDub[widgets]
pip install paperapp_DrDub[fulltext]
