Citation information for skbuild-core

Open inakleinbottle opened this issue 1 year ago • 9 comments

I'm using scikit-build-core in a large package, and I'm currently writing a paper about this. Does scikit-build-core have preferred bibliographic data for citing the project in publications. If so, can these be provided here.

@jcfr, @thewtex, should we add Zenodo?

Instead, what about adding CITATION.cff^1 with one of the publication listed at https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build?tab=readme-ov-file#publications ?

Alternatively, we could also wait to have the proceeding for SciPY 2024, I am tentatively to have it done before the deadline (May 31st)

Regardless, I’d add a CITATION.cff. :)

We can aim for the SciPy paper then.

Since the first talk referenced at https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build?tab=readme-ov-file#publications is specific to scikit-build "classic", I think we should reference the second link.

Or is there a more recent scikit-build-core talk for which we could generate a zenodo and then reference in a CITATION.cff ?

Alternatively, we could:

  • submit an entry to https://joss.theoj.org/
  • generate zenodo from the scikit-build-core repository itself[^1]

[^1]: I would prefer to avoid this as we will soon have an actual proceeding or we may already have a more recent talk to reference.

CITATION.cff seems to be the correct solution to this. The paper I wanted the citation for is for SciPy 2024 :)

Our SciPy 2024 paper is what we want to use for the citation. šŸ˜† Can you cite a paper in the same conference? 😜

Consider that a reference to this repository as a citation may be more useful than a reference to a paper about this repository. Does this repository have a DOI?

No, I think that would have been done with Zenodo, https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build-core/issues/738#issuecomment-2110522206, to which @jcfr replied https://github.com/scikit-build/scikit-build-core/issues/738#issuecomment-2110645795.
