An overview

bibtex_gen

This is a simple example:

import bibtex_gen
# Note: these are fake credentials. You need to sign up for a Mendeley account, go to Mendeley Developers,
# and create an "app" which will give you this info.
mendeley_client_id = '9871'
mendeley_client_secret = 'sdfa4dfDSSDFasda'
btg = bibtex_gen.BibTexGenerator(mendeley_client_id, mendeley_client_secret)
# This object contains all the article data and can be used directly with pyexlatex
bibtex_obj = btg.generate('10.1111/j.1540-6261.2011.01679.x', 'da-engelberg-gao-2011')
# Or, multiple at once with a dict
item_doi_dict = {
    'da-engelberg-gao-2011': '10.1111/j.1540-6261.2011.01679.x',
    'barber-odean-2008': '10.1093/rfs/hhm079',
}
# These objects contain all the article data and can be used directly with pyexlatex
bibtex_objs = btg.generate_from_dict(item_doi_dict)
