@citation-js/plugin-doi

Plugin for DOI input for Citation.js.

Install

npm install @citation-js/plugin-doi

Usage

require('@citation-js/plugin-doi')

'Polite' API access

The plugin fetches data from DOIs using DOI Content Negotiation, which means the Crossref, DataCite, and mEDRA APIs are indirectly used.

Crossref strongly encourages adding a mailto: link to the User-Agent header or URL parameters to get higher rate limits. Because the Crossref API is only used indirectly, the URL parameter method cannot be used consistently. Additionally, the User-Agent header cannot be set in the browser. For non-browser usage however, the user agent can be set like this:

const { util, version } = require('@citation-js/core')

util.setUserAgent(`Example Foo (mailto:foo@example.org) Citation.js/${version} Node.js/${process.versions.node}`)
