See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zya8SfmCtFA and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyvpSVl4_dg for examples of org-ref in action.
./org-ref.org contains all documentation and installation instructions.
org-ref has been added to Melpa.
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)
Then, you should be able to do M-x package-list-packages, find org-ref and install it.
Clone this repo, add it to your load-path, and require org-ref.
git clone git@github.com:jkitchin/org-ref.git
You should set these variables. Here is an example of how mine are set in an init.el file.
(setq reftex-default-bibliography '("~/Dropbox/bibliography/references.bib"))
;; see org-ref for use of these variables
(setq org-ref-bibliography-notes "~/Dropbox/bibliography/notes.org"
org-ref-default-bibliography '("~/Dropbox/bibliography/references.bib")
org-ref-pdf-directory "~/Dropbox/bibliography/bibtex-pdfs/")
(setq helm-bibtex-bibliography "~/Dropbox/bibliography/references.bib")
(setq helm-bibtex-library-path "~/Dropbox/bibliography/bibtex-pdfs")
;; open pdf with system pdf viewer (works on mac)
(setq helm-bibtex-pdf-open-function
(lambda (fpath)
(start-process "open" "*open*" "open" fpath)))
;; alternative
;; (setq helm-bibtex-pdf-open-function 'org-open-file)
(setq helm-bibtex-notes-path "~/Dropbox/bibliography/helm-bibtex-notes")
You may want to set some convenient keys for working in your bibtex file. These commands operate on the citation key at point.
(global-set-key [f10] 'org-ref-open-bibtex-notes)
(global-set-key [f11] 'org-ref-open-bibtex-pdf)
(global-set-key [f12] 'org-ref-open-in-browser)
Add this to your init.el files.
(require 'org-ref)
Go forth and citate.
