pubmex.py - a script to get a fancy paper title based on given DOI or PMID

Overview

Pu(b)mex

tag PyPI version

pubmex.py is a script to get a fancy paper title based on given DOI or PMID (can be also combined with macOS Finder)

Format of the title:

a first author . a last author - (title("dotted") or your customed title) . PMID . journal . year . pdf
e.g.
  Kelley.Scott.The.evolution.biology.shift.towards.engineering.prediction-generating.tools.away.traditional.research.practice.EMBORep.2008.pdf

Nowadays, it’s not a big issue, with all Mendeley and other tools, however...

I don’t want to put any PDF file collected on the way into my library, because then it gets super big (and then it’s hard to sync it for example with Dropbox). So now I can keep these PDF files into pdf-icebox and re-name them niecely automatically:

$ ls
Hnisz.Sharp.Phase.Separation.Model.Transcriptional.Control.Cell.2017.pdf
Sharp.Hockfield.Convergence.The.future.health.Science.2017.pdf

Usage:

./Balas.Johnson.Establishing.RNA-RNA.interactions.remodels.lncRNA.structure.promotes.PRC2.activity.SciAdv.2021.pdf ">
$ pubmex.py sharp2017.pdf
Sharp.Hockfield.Convergence.The.future.health.Science.2017.pdf
mv sharp2017.pdf --> ./Sharp.Hockfield.Convergence.The.future.health.Science.2017.pdf

$ pubmex.py Query.Konarska.pdf
mv Query.Konarska.pdf --> ./Smith.Konarska."Nought.may.endure.but.mutability".spliceosome.dynamics.regulation.splicing.MolCell.2008.pdf
    
$ pubmex.py eabc9191.full.pdf
mv  eabc9191.full.pdf --> ./Balas.Johnson.Establishing.RNA-RNA.interactions.remodels.lncRNA.structure.promotes.PRC2.activity.SciAdv.2021.pdf

Comments
  • Automator not working

    Automator not working

    It seems that when using the automator installations that come with the pubmex the pubmex.py can not be found.

        for f in "$@"
        do
            pubmex.py $f
        done
    

    The following error is displayed:

    The action “Run Shell Script” encountered an error: “zsh:3: command not found: pubmex.py”

    When specifying the direct location of just the pubmex.py file another error occures.

        for f in "$@"
        do
            /users/suntim/miniforge3/bin/pubmex.py $f
        done
    

    The following error is displayed:

    The action “Run Shell Script” encountered an error: “”

    When specifying the direct location of python and the pubmex.py file another error occures.

        for f in "$@"
        do
            /usr/local/bin/python3 /users/suntim/miniforge3/bin/pubmex.py $f
        done
    

    The following error is displayed:

    The action “Run Shell Script” encountered an error: “Traceback (most recent call last): File "/users/suntim/miniforge3/bin/pubmex.py", line 27, in <module> from Bio import Entrez ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Bio'”

    I have all dependencies installed pip3 install pubmex, pip3 install biopython, brew install poppler. As it says in the readme.md that biopython should be isntalled via brew I assume that was a mistake. I instead installed it via pip3.

    The same error messages occure regardless of using the zsh or bash version.
