How does one alter the format of in-line citations in Docs.query?

[AmagicalFishy]

My in-line citations often come out like: (jones2010cannabidioldisplaysantiepileptiform pages 1-1); this is difficult to read. I've tried changing the pre, post, and citation prompts to no avail. I'd like the in-line citations to show up like (Author, Title, Page) in a way that's easy to read.

Do you know if this is possible?

To alter the format of in-line citations in Docs.query, you might need to look into the format_bibtex function, which handles the parsing and formatting of citation data. This function uses the pybtex library to transform BibTeX entries into citations and allows for the addition of missing fields ^[1][2].

If changing the pre, post, and citation prompts hasn't worked, you may need to customize the format_bibtex function or related logic to achieve the desired format of (Author, Title, Page). Unfortunately, there isn't specific documentation or examples available in the repository that directly address customizing in-line citation formats in Docs.query. You might need to explore the code further or experiment with modifications to achieve the desired output.

Tangential question: What is the best way to alter an answer with Settings.prompts.post ?

[dosubot[bot]]

To alter an answer using Settings.prompts.post, you can set the post attribute of the prompts in the Settings object to a specific string that you want to append to the answer. For example:

post = "The opposite of down is"
settings = Settings.from_name("fast")
settings.prompts.post = post

In this example, the post prompt is set to "The opposite of down is", which influences the answer to include "up" ^[1].
