\begin{abstract}
\noindent The \bpl\ package provides a \emph{biblatex bibliography style file}
({*}.bbx) for publication lists, i.\,e.\ a bibliography containing one's own
publications. The style file draws on \bibltx's \emph{authoryear} style per default
(which can be changed), but provides some extra features needed for publication lists,
such as the omission or highlighting of the own name from\slash in author or editor data.
The package requires at least version 3.8 of the \bibltx\ package\footnote{For \bibltx, see
\url{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex}.} and \texttt{biber} (the respective version as required by \bibltx).
\end{abstract}

\section{Aim of the package}

The \bpl\ package ships a \emph{biblatex bibliography style file} ({*}.bbx)
for a specific task: academic publication lists. Such lists, which are a central
part of the academic CV, contain all or selected publications of a specific
author, usually sorted by genre and year. Even though publication lists are actually
nothing else than (specific) bibliographies, they diverge from those in some
respects. Most notably, it is widespread practice to omit your own name in
your publication list and only list your co-authors, if there are any, or to
highlight your own name (e.\,g., with bold face letters).
If you want to follow this practice, a normal bibliography style does not
produce the desired result.

Given the fact that maintaining a publication list is a routine task
in an academian's life, it is surprising how few specified solutions
exist to generate such lists (particularly from Bib\TeX\ data). For
traditional Bib\TeX, Nicolas Markey provided a specific Bib\TeX\
style file, \emph{publist.bst}%
\footnote{\url{http://www.lsv.ens-cachan.fr/~markey/BibTeX/publist/?lang=en};
see also \cite{ttb}.}, which helps a lot if you want to produce a publication
list with Bib\TeX. The \bpl\ package is the result of the aim of emulating
the features of \emph{publist.bst} with \bibltx's means. It partly draws on
Markey's conceptual ideas. Bug reports, comments and ideas are welcome.


\section{Usage}

\subsection{Standard usage\label{sec:standard-usage}}

The standard way of using the package is to load the style file via
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[1]{plauthorname}}]
\usepackage[bibstyle=publist]{biblatex}
\plauthorname[first name][von-part]{surname}
\end{lstlisting}
The \jcsmacro*{plauthorname} macro\footnote{The macro was named \jfcsmacro{omitname} until v.\,1.4
of the \bpl\ package. The old macro still works, but is marked as deprecated.}
(at least with the mandatory \emph{surname} argument) needs to be given (at least\footnote{See
sec.~\ref{sec:multiauthors} for the case of handling multiple authors and name variants.}) once. 
It informs the style file which name(s) it should suppress or highlight in the
author\slash editor list (usually yours). 

With the default settings, the author\slash editor name(s) will be omitted completely
for all of publications which are authored or edited only by the specified person(s), as in:
\begin{quote}
\textbf{2012.} Some recent trends in gardening. In: \emph{Gardening
Practice} 56, pp.~34--86.
\end{quote}
If there are co-authors\slash co-editors, your name(s) will be filtered
out and the collaborators added in parentheses, as in:
\begin{quote}
\textbf{1987} (with John Doe and Mary Hall). Are there new trends
in gardening? In: \emph{Gardening Practice} 24, pp.~10--15.
\end{quote}
If \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight} is used (see next section), the plauthor(s)
will be printed in bold face instead, as in:
\begin{quote}
	Doe, John, \textbf{Myself, Me} and Hall, Mary, \textbf{1987}. Are there new trends
	in gardening? In: \emph{Gardening Practice} 24, pp.~10--15.
\end{quote}
%
Note that \jcsmacro{plauthorname} expects the name constituents as they are recorded in the
database (special characters will be expanded). The option \joption{plauthorfirstinit} (see next section),
however, allows you to pass only an initial character instead of a first name.


\subsection{Additional options}\label{sec:addopts}

Currently, the following additional options are provided (next to the
options provided by the \bibltx\ package itself%
\footnote{Please refer to the \bibltx\ manual \cite{bibltx} for those.}):
\begin{description}
\item [{\joption{plauthorname=<surname>}}]
\item [{\joption{plauthorfirstname=<first name>}}]
\item [{\joption{plauthornameprefix=<von-part>}}] ~

This is an alternative to the \jcsmacro{plauthorname} macro
described in sec.~\ref{sec:standard-usage}.\footnote{The options were called \jfoption{omitname}, \jfoption{omitfirstname} and \jfoption{omitnameprefix} until v.\,1.4
of \bpl. The old options still work, but are marked as deprecated.} However, due to the
way bibliography options are implemented in \bibltx, this only works
if your name does not consist of non-ASCII characters. Hence, the
\jcsmacro{plauthorname} macro is the recommended way.

\item [{\joption{plauthorhandling{[}=omit|highlight{]}}}] default: \emph{omit}.

By default, the publist author (as defined with \jmacro{plauthor}) is omitted from
the author or editor list. If you use the option \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight},
it is highlighted instead (i.\,e., set in bold face by default; see sec.~\ref{sec:auxmacros} how to change that).

\item [{\joption{nameorder{[}=family-given|given-family{]}}}] default: \emph{family-given}.

By default, the author and editor names with \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight} are output in the order ``Lastname, Given Names''.
To change the order to ``Given Names Lastname'', pass the option \joption{nameorder=given-family} to \bibltx.

\item [{\joption{boldyear{[}=true|false{]}}}] default: \emph{true}.

By default, the year (or pubstate, if no year is given) is printed in bold face.
To prevent this, pass the
option \joption{boldyear=false} to \bibltx.

\item [{\joption{marginyear{[}=true|false{]}}}] default: \emph{false}.

With this option set to \joption{true}, the publication year (or pubstate) will
be printed in the margin once a new year starts. The option also has
the effect that all marginpars are printed ``reversed'', i.\,e.
on the left side in one-sided documents (via \jfcsmacro{reversemarginpar}).

\item [{\joption{plnumbered{[}=true|false|reset{]}}}] default: \emph{true}.

By default, the publication list is numbered continuously. If you divide your publication list into sections by means of
\jfcsmacro{refsection}s (as documented in section~\ref{sec:example}), you will thus get a global numbering over all sections.

If you prefer the numbering to start from 1 at each section instead, set this option to \joption{reset}.

If you do not want to have any numbers at all, set this option to \joption{false}.

\item [{\joption{plauthorfirstinit{[}=true|false{]}}}] default: \emph{false}.

If you set this option to true, you can (and are supposed to) pass only an initial character as first name value of
\jcsmacro{plauthorname} (e.\,g., \jcsmacro{plauthorname[J]\{Doe\}} or \jcsmacro{plauthorname[J][van]\{Doe\}}).
In consequence, \bpl\ will consider all entries of the specified given name (and prefix, if specified)
whose prename starts with the specified character. This allows you to deal with databases that record entries of your work
with abbreviated and full first name (\textsc{J. Doe} and well as \textsc{John Doe} and \textsc{John Robert Doe}) \emph{as well as}
works of colleagues with the same surname (maybe your family members), which you will not want to mark as your own's.
Of course, the solution does not help if there is an entry with same surname and same first name initial (such as \textsc{Jane Doe}).


\end{description}


\subsection{Multiple authors and\slash or name variants}\label{sec:multiauthors}

If multiple \jcsmacro{plauthorname} specifications have been entered (or a \jcsmacro{plauthorname} specification
in addition to a specification via the options \joption{plauthorname}, \joption{plauthorname} and
\joption{plauthornameprefix}), all of them will be considered.

Thus it is possible to highlight multiple authors in the publication
list (for instance to mark contributions of a research team):
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[2]{plauthorname}}]
\usepackage[style=publist,plauthorhandling=highlight]{biblatex}
\plauthorname[John]{Doe}
\plauthorname[Mary][van]{Smith}
\plauthorname{Wittgenstein}
\end{lstlisting}
%
Multiple specifications can also be used to deal with name variants:
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[2]{plauthorname}}]
\plauthorname[Bill]{Gates}
\plauthorname[William]{Gates}
\plauthorname[William Henry]{Gates}
\plauthorname[William H.]{Gates}
\end{lstlisting}
%
Since the latter is also useful with \joption{plauthorhandling=omit}, this mode also considers multiple specifications.
By entering something such as the former, it is even possible to omit more than one and different authors from the entries
(and \bpl\ will take care of the change in the author separation this involves; think of final \emph{and} vs. \emph{comma},
which have to be adjusted accordingly if names are omitted). However, it does not strike me sensible to do so (in other words,
if you need to deal with a \emph{team} of authors, you should really consider to use \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight}).

Note that this also applies to filtering (see sec.~\ref{sec:filtering}), i.\,e., the \joption{mine} filter considers
entries authored by \emph{any} of the specified persons.


\section{Customization}

\subsection{Auxiliary macros and lengths}\label{sec:auxmacros}

The appearance of the \emph{marginyear} is controlled by the
\jcsmacro*{plmarginyear} macro, which has the following default definition:
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[2]{providecommand,plmarginyear}}]
\providecommand*\plmarginyear[1]{%
  \raggedleft\small\textbf{#1}%
}
\end{lstlisting}
If you want to change the appearance, just redefine this macro via
\jfcsmacro{renewcommand{*}}.

The highlighting of the publication list author, if \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight} has been set,
is controlled by the \jcsmacro*{plauthorhl} macro, which has the following default definition:
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[2]{providecommand,plauthorhl,mkbibbold}}]
\providecommand*\plauthorhl[1]{%
	\mkbibbold{#1}%
}
\end{lstlisting}
If you need another form of highlighting, redefine this macro via \jfcsmacro{renewcommand{*}}.

The indendation of the bibliographic entries (lines > 1) can be adjusted by setting the length
\jmacro*{extralabel\-numberwidth} via \jfcsmacro{setlength} (default is \texttt{0pt}).
This might be needed for long bibliographies (> 99 entries) in order to adjust to the extra
space the item number needs.


\subsection{Using a different base style}\label{sec:basestyle}

By default, \bpl\ loads \bibltx's \emph{authoryear} style, and it has been written
to work with that style. However, it is possible to try a diffent base style, if
\emph{author\-year} does not fit your needs.\condbreak{2\baselineskip}

In order to do so, enter the following \emph{before} loading \bibltx:
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[2]{publistbasestyle}}]
\newcommand*\publistbasestyle{<stylename>}
\end{lstlisting}
where <stylename> is the name of the biblatex bibliography style (\emph{bbx}) you want to use, without the \emph{bbx} entension (e.\,g., \lstinline|\newcommand*\publistbasestyle{mla}|).

Note, though, that there is (and can be) no guarantee that \bpl\ will work with all styles, although it has been successfully tested with several. Be prepared to bump into \LaTeX\ errors and carefully check the output for correctness if you try a different base style.

Note, further, that the order of author's and editor's given and family names is hardcoded in
\bpl\ due to the complex omission\slash highlighting mechanism. This might
differ from what you expect with specific base styles. To change the order,
use the package option \joption{nameorder} (see sec.~\ref{sec:addopts}).


\section{Localization}

Since the package draws on \bibltx, it supports localization. 
The following additional localization keys (\jfcsmacro{bibstrings})
are added by the package:
\begin{itemize}
\item \emph{with}: the preposition ``with'' that precedes the list of
co-authors by default (i.\,e., with \joption{plauthorhandling=omit}).
\item \emph{parttranslationof}: the expression ``partial translation of''
for entries referring to partially translated work via \bibltx's
``related entries'' feature (see sec.~\ref{sec:partial-translations}).
\end{itemize}
Currently, these additional localization keys are available in the following
languages: English, French and German.%
\footnote{Please send suggestions for other languages to the package author.}


\section{Further Extensions}

The following extensions of standard \bibltx\ features are provided.


\subsection{Review bibliography type}\label{sec:review-bibliography-type}

Although a \emph{review} entry type is provided by \bibltx, this
type is treated as an alias for \emph{article}. The \bpl\ package
uses this entry type for a specific purpose: Foreign reviews of your
own work. It therefore defines a new bibliography environment \emph{reviews}
with a specific look (particularly as far as the author names are
concerned) and its own numbering; furthermore, it redefines the \emph{review}
bibliography driver. The purpose of this is that you can add other
people's reviews of your work to your publication list, while these
titles are clearly marked and do not interfere with the overall numbering
(see sec.~\ref{sec:example} for an example).


\subsection{Partial translations}\label{sec:partial-translations}

A new ``related entry'' type \emph{parttranslationof} is provided.
This is an addition to the \emph{translationof} related entry type
\bibltx\ itself provides. Please refer to the \bibltx\ manual \cite{bibltx}
on what ``related entries'' are and how to use them.


\section{An example}\label{sec:example}

Publication lists are usually categorized by genre (monographs, articles,
book chapters, etc.). For this task, the use of \jfmacro{refsections} (see \cite[sec 3.7.4]{bibltx} for details) is
suggested. Other possibilities were not tested extensively and might fail (in particular as far as the numbering of the items
is concerned).

The suggested procedure is to maintain separate bib files for each
category, say \emph{mymonographs.bib}, \emph{myarticles.bib}, \emph{myproceedings.bib}.%
\footnote{But see sec.~\ref{sec:filtering} for an alternative.}
Then a typical file would look like example~\ref{example} (p.~\pageref{example}).
%
\begin{lstlisting}[caption={Typical document},
		   float,
		   frame=single,
		   label={example},
		   moretexcs={[5]{plauthorname,addbibresource,printbibliography,maketitle,newrefsection}}]
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}

\usepackage{csquotes}% not required, but recommended
\usepackage[style=publist]{biblatex}
\plauthorname[John]{Doe}

\addbibresource{mymonographs.bib}
\addbibresource{myarticles.bib}
\addbibresource{myproceedings.bib}

\begin{document}

\title{John Doe's publications}
\date{\today}
\maketitle

\section{Monographs}
\newrefsection[mymonographs]
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[heading=none]

\section{Proceedings}
\newrefsection[myproceedings]
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[heading=none]

\section{Articles}
\newrefsection[myarticles]
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[heading=none]

\end{document}
\end{lstlisting}


If you want to add other people's reviews of your work, add a section
such as the following:
\begin{lstlisting}[caption={Adding foreign reviews},
		  moretexcs={[4]{bibfont,subsubsection,printbibliography,newrefsection}}]
\subsubsection*{Reviews of my thesis}
\newrefsection[mythesis-reviews]
\renewcommand\bibfont{\small}
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[heading=none,env=reviews]
\end{lstlisting}

Note that the \jfcsmacro{printbibliography} option
\joption{env=reviews}  is crucial if you want to use the specifics
\bpl\ defines for reviews (see sec.~\ref{sec:review-bibliography-type}).


\section{Filtering\label{sec:filtering}}

If you have a bibliographic database consisting not only of your own
publications, you can extract yours with the bibliography filter \joption{mine},
which has to be passed to \jfcsmacro{printbibliography}, as in:
\begin{lstlisting}[caption={Using a bibliography filter},
		  moretexcs={[1]{printbibliography}}]
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[heading=none,filter=mine]
\end{lstlisting}
%
This will effectively print only publications which have been authored or edited by the
person(s) specified as via \jcsmacro{plauthorname} (or the corresponding option).

Of course, you can also use other filter possibilities provided by
\bibltx, such as filtering by type or by keyword. So if you want
to extract all of your articles from a larger database with entries
of diverse type and authors, specify:
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[1]{printbibliography}}]
\printbibliography[heading=none,filter=mine,type=article]
\end{lstlisting}
%
Note that several reruns of \texttt{latex} might be required to fix the numbering.


\section{Sorting\label{sec:sorting}}


\subsection{Sorting Publication Lists}

The sorting conventions of publication lists differ from those of normal bibliographies.
Publication lists are usually not sorted by author name, the prime criterion of normal
bibliographies, but rather chronologically (usually \emph{descending} from the newest through
the oldest publication). How to sub-sort within a year depends on the handling of author names.
If you display all authors and only highlight your own (via \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight}),
it probably makes sense to sub-sort first by author name, and then by title. If you omit your own name
and just mention your co-authors (the default), it makes more sense to sub-sort by title right away,
without taking the author names into account.

To account for these needs, \bpl\ adds some sorting options on top of those that come with
\bibltx\ itself.


\subsection{Sorting Templates}\label{sec:sorttemplates}

The sorting of items is done via \bibltx's sorting mechanism, via so called \emph{sorting templates}
(please refer to the \bibltx\ manual for details). 

By default, \bpl\ uses an own template, \joption{ydt}, which sorts hierarchically by \textbf{y}ear
(\textbf{d}escending) and \textbf{t}itle (alphabetically ascending), ignoring author
names. This default is used since author name sorting does not make much sense at least in
the default configuration, where the own name is omitted and the list of co-authors is presented
in a particular way.
If you use \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight}, however, the default changes to \joption{ydnt}
(a template provided by \bibltx\ itself) which sub-sorts by author names (alphabetically ascending)
before sub-sorting by title.

In addition to this default template, \bpl\ provides some sorting templates that account
for the full date (rather than just the year).
This is especially useful for sorting talks, since those usually do not only have a year, but a full
date (day, month and year).
The following templates, with and without author sorting, are provided:
\begin{itemize}
 \item \jmacro{ddt}: Sort by full \textbf{d}ate (\textbf{d}escending)
        and \textbf{t}itle (both ascending).
 \item \jmacro{ddnt}: Sort by full \textbf{d}ate (\textbf{d}escending),
        author \textbf{n}ame and \textbf{t}itle (both ascending).
 \item \jmacro{dt}: Sort by full \textbf{d}ate and \textbf{t}itle (all ascending).
 \item \jmacro{dnt}: Sort by full \textbf{d}ate, author \textbf{n}ame and \textbf{t}itle
        (all ascending).
 \item \jmacro{ydmdt}: Sort by \textbf{y}ear (\textbf{d}escending),
	    \textbf{m}onth, \textbf{d}ay and \textbf{t}itle	(all ascending).
\item \jmacro{ydmdnt}: Sort by \textbf{y}ear (\textbf{d}escending),
       \textbf{m}onth, \textbf{d}ay, author \textbf{n}ame and \textbf{t}itle
       (all ascending).
\end{itemize}
In order to use any of these, or another sorting template provided by \bibltx\, 
use \bibltx's \jfmacro{sorting} option, which can be passed either globally
(via \joption{sorting=<template>} as a \bibltx\ option) or locally
(by means of a \jfcsmacro{newrefcontext} macro with the option \joption{sorting=<template>}).
So, to sort your talks in descending order by full date in your CV, you would
use either
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[1]{printbibliography}}]
\usepackage[style=publist,sorting=ddt]{biblatex}
\end{lstlisting}
or
\begin{lstlisting}[moretexcs={[3]{printbibliography,newrefcontext,endrefcontext}}]
\newrefcontext[sorting=ddt]
\printbibliography[heading=none]
\endrefcontext
\end{lstlisting}

	    	\item \texttt{year+labelyear} $\Rightarrow$ \texttt{bpl:year+labelyear}
				\end{itemize}
	\end{itemize}

	\item [{V.~1.7 (2017-04-12):}]~
    \begin{itemize}
	\item Output marginyear before the author list. This prevents it from being vertically
	      shifted in case of long author lists.
    \end{itemize}
	\item [{V.~1.6 (2017-04-02):}]~
	    \begin{itemize}
		    \item New option \joption{nameorder} that allows to change the ordering of author and editor
		          name (\joption{given-family} vs. \joption{family-given} [=~default]).
		    \item Use proper name delimiters also for bookauthor.
        \end{itemize}

   \item [{V.~1.5 (2017-02-28):}]~
	    \begin{itemize}
	        \item Fix extra \emph{and} in name list with \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight}.
	        \item Whitespace fix with \joption{plauthorhandling=highlight}.
	        \item Use proper name delimiters.
        \end{itemize}
   \item [{V.~1.4 (2017-02-12):}]~
	\begin{itemize}
		\item New option \joption{plauthorhandling} that defines how the publist author is
		handled in the publication list (possible values: \joption{omit} [=~default],
		\joption{highlight}).
		\item New command \jcsmacro{plauthorhl} that determines the aforementioned highlighting.
		\item  Rename \jcsmacro{omitname} to \jcsmacro{plauthorname} (the old macro is still functional, but marked as deprecated).
		\item Rename \joption{omit*} options to \joption{plauthor*} (the old options are still functional, but marked as deprecated).
		\item Assure the margin text always starts uppercased (relevant for pubstates).
		\item Minor corrections to the manual.
	\end{itemize}

   \item [{V.~1.3 (2016-08-06):}]~

   \begin{itemize}
	\item It is now possible to change the base style that is used by \bpl. See sec.~\ref{sec:basestyle}.
	\item Proper sorting of pubstates.
	\item Add possibility to increase the indentation of items (by means of the length  \jmacro{extralabelnumberwidth}). See sec.~\ref{sec:auxmacros}.
	\item Use \jfoption{pagetracker=true} instead of \jfoption{pagetracker=spread}
	      by default (avoids warning, no change in functionality).
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~1.2 (2016-05-12):}]~
	\begin{itemize}
		\item Accomodate to the backwards-incompatible changes of \bibltx~3.4\\
		(\jfoption{prefixnumber} $\Rightarrow$ \jfoption{labelprefix},
		\jfcsmacro{ifempty} $\Rightarrow$ \jfcsmacro{ifdefvoid}).
		This version of \bibltx\ is now required.
	\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~1.1 (2016-03-09):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Adapt to the \jfcsmacro{Declare*Name} changes of \bibltx~3.3.
      Since \bibltx~3.3 introduced backwards-incompatible changes that
      affect \bpl, this version of \bibltx\ is now required.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~1.0~(2015-01-04):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Add portmanteau *.cbx file to allow loading \bpl\ also via 
      the \jfoption{style} option (next to \jfoption{bibstyle}).
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.9~(2014-03-13):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Fix problem with multi-token names.
\item Support name prefix in \jcsmacro{omitname}.
\item Support pubstate.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.8~(2013-08-16):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Add custom sorting schemes \jmacro{ddnt}, \jmacro{ydmdnt} and \jmacro{dnt}
      (see sec.~\ref{sec:sorting}).
\item Revise the documentation.
\end{itemize}\condbreak{2\baselineskip}

\item [{V.~0.7~(2013-07-25):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Support full dates.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.6~(2013-07-21):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Fix numbering with recent \bibltx\ versions.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.5~(2013-05-03):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Fix numbering if \jfcsmacro{printbibliography} is used
multiple times within the same or without any \jfmacro{refsection}.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.4~(2012-10-30):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item More robust name parsing (especially for names with non-ASCII characters
encoded with \LaTeX{} macros). The code was kindly suggested by Enrico
Gregorio.%
\footnote{Cf. \url{http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/79555/biblatex-bibliographyoption-with-braces}.%
}
\item Add \jcsmacro{omitname} command (see sec.~\ref{sec:standard-usage}).
\item Support \joption{firstinits} option.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.3~(2012-10-23):}]~
\begin{itemize}
\item Bug fix: Add missing ``and'' if omitted name was last minus one.
\item Bug fix: Fix output with ``et al.'' if omitted name is first and
\emph{liststop} is 1.
\item Set \joption{maxnames} default to 4.
\item Add filter possibility (see sec.~\ref{sec:filtering}).
\item Add French localization.
\item Some corrections to the manual.
\end{itemize}

\item [{V.~0.2~(2012-10-21):}] Initial release to CTAN.
