First Approach

(Version 0.04)

Sometimes the bibliography needs to be more flexible. For this case here is a simple module (still in development) to help. It is also a good starting-point for your own adaption.

Still open points:

  • interface should be multilingual (this version has german output, but it can be replaced easily)
  • \item[...] should be rightaligned
  • modulesparamter refcolor is always empty - so not working


\startmodule[simplebib]

\unprotect

\setupmodule[itemspace=12,refcolor=grey]

\definecolor[grey][s=.35]

\defineitemgroup[bibliography]
\setupitemgroup[bibliography][levels=1,left={[},right={]},stopper=]
\expanded{\setupitemgroup[bibliography][1][n,\currentmoduleparameter{itemspace}*broad]}


\def\bibitem[#1]#2{\doifemptyelse{#2}%
	{\item[#1]}%
	{\sym{\cap{#2}}\textreference[#1]{\cap{#2}}}}%

\def\bibref[#1]#2{\doifemptyelse{#2}
	{\color[grau]{[\in[#1]]}}
	{\color[grau]{[\in[#1], #2]}}}

\def\cbibref[#1][#2]#3{\doifemptyelse{#3}
	{\color[#1]{[\in[#2]]}}
	{\color[#1]{[\in[#2], #3]}}}


\def\decodebibsource#1[#2]
	{\getparameters[tmp][author=,editor=,year=,title=,in=,series=,volume=,magazine=,edition=,revedition=, datedition=,publisher=,place=,isbn=,url=,pages=,#2]%
	\doifnot{\tmpauthor}{}  {\tmpauthor\doifnot{\tmpyear}{}{ }}%
	\doifnot{\tmpeditor}{}{\doifnot{\tmpauthor}{}{ - }\tmpeditor~(Hrsg.)\doifnot{\tmpyear}{}{ }}%
	\doifnot{\tmpyear}{}   {(\tmpyear)}%
	\doifelse{\tmpauthor}{}
		{\doifelse{\tmpeditor}{}%
			{\doifnot{\tmpyear}{}{: }}{: }}{: }%
	\doifnot{\tmptitle}{}  {{\it \tmptitle}}%
	\doifnot{\tmpseries}{}  { aus der Reihe {\it \tmpseries}}%
	\doifnot{\tmpvolume}{}   { (Band~\tmpvolume)}%
	\doifnot{\tmpmagazine}{}   { (Heft~\tmpmagazine)}%
	\doifnot{\tmpedition}{}{, \tmpedition.~Auflage}%
	\doifnot{\tmprevedition}{}{, \tmprevedition.~überarbeitete Auflage}%
	\doifnot{\tmpdatedition}{}{, Auflage vom \tmpdatedition}%
	\doifelse{\tmppublisher}{}{\doifnot{\tmpplace}{}{,}}{,}%
	\doifnot{\tmppublisher}{} { \tmppublisher}%
	\doifnot{\tmpplace}{}    { \tmpplace}%
	\doifnot{\tmpisbn}{}   {, ISBN~\tmpisbn}%
	\doifnot{\tmppages}{} {, S.~\tmppages}%
	\doifnot{\tmpurl}{}    {, \tmpurl}%
   	\doifnot{\tmpin}{}     { in \expanded{\decodebibsource[\tmpin]}}
	}

\def\bibsource#1[#2]
	{\getparameters[tmp][key=,abbr=,#2]
	\doifelse{\tmpabbr}{}
		{\item[\tmpkey]}
		{\sym{\cap{\tmpabbr}}\expanded{\textreference[\tmpkey]{\cap{\tmpabbr}}}}%
	\decodebibsource[#2]
	}
\protect
\stopmodule
\endinput

Another Approach

Here is another manual approach for simple bibliographies.

\definereferenceformat[cite][left={[},right={]}]
\defineitemgroup [bibliography] [levels=1]
\setupitemgroup  [bibliography] 
                 [symbol=n,
                  left={[},
                  right={]},
                  width=1.5em,
                  stopper=,
                  itemalign=flushright,
                  inbetween={\blank[4pt]}]


\appendtoks
  \let \bibitem \itemgroupitem
\to \itemgroupcommands

Now you can use

\section{References}
\startbibliography
  \bibitem[ref1] This is my first reference
  \bibitem[ref2] This is the second reference
\stopbibliography

and use \cite[ref1] etc to refer to bibliography items.
