class clld.lib.bibtex.Record(genre, id_, *args, **kw)[source]¶

A BibTeX record is an ordered dict with two special properties - id and genre.

To overcome the limitation of single values per field in BibTeX, we allow fields, i.e. values of the dict to be iterables of strings as well. Note that to support this use case comprehensively, various methods of retrieving values will behave differently. I.e. values will be

joined to a string in __getitem__,
retrievable as assigned with get (i.e. only use get if you know how a value was assigned),
retrievable as list with getall

Note

Unknown genres are converted to “misc”.

getall(key)[source]¶

Get list of all values for key.

Returns:	list of strings representing the values of the record for field ‘key’.

clld.lib.bibtex.u_unescape(s)[source]¶

Parameters:	string – six.text_type or six.binary_type (which will be decoded using latex+latin1)
