can I include the file link (link to my local pdf) directly in the template? I tried with {{file}} but that obviously doesn’t work. Is there any placeholder for this?
If you’re using the BibLaTeX format this is possible. Here’s the magic template string – this will retrieve the first file, if any, associated with the entry:
{{entry.files.[0]}}
(also cc @KRao – this is the feature that you wanted!)
would it be somehow possible to implement a feature that allows to include my cited reference directly in the actual note?
I’m currently working on a “references pane” feature which automatically extracts and renders citations from the current document in a side pane (like the Obsidian backlinks pane). This sounds like it could match what you want. We could also certainly support rendering this as a section within the document, I suppose.
For what it’s worth – my impression is that lots of people are currently rendering bibliography sections with the Pandoc converter. (See e.g. this post: New plugin: Citations (with Zotero) - #80 by ncraig )
