This task is currently restricted to the system administrators in order to prevent users overwriting each others bibliography styles. A more appropriate solution will be implemented later to allow users uploading their own styles.
Use the refdba command addstyle to add one or more bibliography style files to the database. Existing styles with the same name will be overwritten without a warning, so you should check with the liststyle command before you go ahead.
Note: The name of a bibliography style is encoded in the XML file. The filename of the bibliography style is irrelevant here. Use grep STYLENAME to see which bibliography styles are defined in a file and check with the liststyle command whether they're already defined in the database.
| Warning |
|
refdb uses a non-validating parser to load bibliography styles into the database. It is your responsibility to validate the files before you add them. Adding invalid styles may have undesired and unpredictable results. |
Use the refdba command deletestyle to remove one or more bibliography styles from the database. The argument for this command is a Unix regular expression. All styles whose name match the regular expression will be deleted.
