Description

This extension provides a BibTeX reference for the active URL

A simple chrome extension that creates a BibTeX entry for the URL in the current tab.
Supports @misc and @online entries.

Tab's title and URL are automatically copied to be used in your LaTeX documents.

"Accessed on" field (resp. "urldate" for @online entries) is optional

Author, year and month info need to be filled-in manually, and can optionally be omitted.

Add
\usepackage{hyperref}

in your LaTeX document for the extension to work properly.

Example of use:

For http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/packaging.html we get:

@misc{Packa3:Online,
author = {},
title = {Packaging - Google Chrome},
howpublished = {\url{https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/packaging}},
month = {},
year = {},
note = {(Accessed on 06/07/2014)}
}
