any_bib_duplicates {TeXCheckR}

Are any bib entries duplicated?

Description

Are any bib entries duplicated?

Usage

any_bib_duplicates(bib.files, .report_error, rstudio = FALSE)

Arguments

bib.files

Files to check for duplicates

.report_error

How errors should be logged.

rstudio

Use the RStudio API?

Details

This function is very fastidious about the format of bib.files. Run lint_bib (noting that this will overwrite your bibliography) if it complains.

This function finds exact duplicates in the author title date/year and volume fields. Note that it is not possible in general to detect actual duplicates; you will still need to inspect the printed bibliography.

Value

Called for its side-effect. If duplicates are detected, the first six are printed as a data.table; otherwise, NULL, invisibly.
