Description-en: Personal journal article management and indexing system
Xapers is a personal document indexing system, geared towards
academic journal articles. Think of it as your own personal document
search engine, or a local cache of online libraries. It provides
fast search of document text and bibliographic data and simple
document and bibtex retrieval.
.
Document files (in PDF format) and source identifiers (e.g. DOI) are
parsed and indexed into a Xapian search engine. Document text is
extracted from the PDF and fully indexed. Bibliographic information
downloaded from online libraries is indexed as prefixed search terms.
Existing bibtex databases can be easily imported as well, including
import of pdf files specified in Jabref/Mendeley format. Documents
can be arbitrarily tagged. Original document files are easily
retrievable from a simple curses search UI. The command line
interface allows for exporting bibtex from arbitrary searches,
allowing seemless integration into LaTeX work flows.
