Extracting data from website

Post by Frank2013 »

Hello,

I would like to show the number of citations of an article in my latex document. After compilation of my latex file, this number should be generated automatically by inquiring web of science (http://apps.webofknowledge.com/WOS_Gene ... ed_tab=WOS).

How can I achieve this?

Thanks a lot.

Frank

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi Frank,

You could use \write18 to call a shell script, batch file, etc.

Alternatively, the package bashful implements functionality to execute bash directly from inside a tex document.

Both options require the --shell-escape flag to be set while typesetting.
