I'm using overleaf. I have 2 files,main.tex and gil.bib uploaded
main.tex :
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{gil.bib}
\begin{document}
Test test test \cite{Lee2009a}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
gil.bib :
#article{Lee2009a,
author = {Lee, Geun},
file = {:Users/JulianLeitner/Library/Application Support/Mendeley Desktop/Downloaded/Lee - 2009 - A Theory of Soft Power and Korea's Soft Power Strategy.pdf:pdf},
journal = {The Korean Journal of Defense Analysis},
number = {2},
pages = {205--218},
title = {{A Theory of Soft Power and Korea's Soft Power Strategy}},
volume = {21},
year = {2009}
}
But I get error saying I have "Empty bibliography on input line 6" and nothing works.
I'm new to Latex - hope someone can help me out.
Thanks!

I’m running on Linux, Texlive2019 (apt installed that one, not a more recent one) and texmaker on Ubuntu 20.04.
Anyone has a solution?
Two problems:
the } at the end of your bib entry was missing
\citep{} is not provided by biblatex by default. You can use \parencite{} instead or the natbib=true option of biblatex

My work is all stored on our work's OneDrive and so the path name has a dash in it:
OneDrive - My Organization
I think I can handle the spaces, but the dash is giving me a problem. I can't get biblatex to find the file!
Thank you.

Bibliography doesn't show up.
My .bib file is okay I think but when I compile the main file bibliography doesn't show.
I don't know what's wrong, please help.
Important parts of code in my main file.
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{bibliography.bib}
...
\begin{document}
...
\chapter*{Bibliography}
\printbibliography
...
\end{document}
And my bibliography file has some references like this one.
#article{1,
author = "Diomidis Spinellis",
title = "{Being a Software Developer}",
journal = "IEEE Software",
volume = "35",
number = "4",
month = {August},
year = "2018",
pages = "4-7",
doi = {10.1109/MS.2018.2801555}
}
For this kind of message:
ERROR - Cannot find control file biblio.bcf!
Try to also check if you chose the correct corresponding backend in your text editor.
E.g., with Texmaker, you choose "Biber" or "BibTeX" for the field "Bib(La)TeX" , in Tools/configure Texmaker
I'm using biblatex in a beamer presentation so that I can use the \footcite command. The problem is that bibliography styles handling in biblatex don't look quite straighforward and none of the default styles will actually work for me since they do not show Journal references.
I'm looking for something similar as .bst files for Bibtex, since I can have JPC and PRL, PR bibliography styles. I surfed the internet and this stackexchange but couldn't find a proper solution. Could somebody provide me a working example with a style which shows: Authors, Year, Journal?
Best regards
The following code (authoryear style) does not show journal. Alphabetic, numeric etc only produces blank references.
MWE:
\documentclass[8pt mathserif]{beamer}
\usepackage{beamerthemesplit}
\usepackage{latexsym}
\usepackage{eurosym}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{ae,aecompl}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{library.bib}
\usetheme{Madrid}
\title[]{Title}
\author[]{author}
\institute{MSE # NTU\\
The Zhao Research Group\\
}
\date[]{Thursday 31, July 2014}
\begin{document}
\section{Review of interesting phenomenology}
\begin{frame}[allowframebreaks noframenumbering]{Polaron Transformation}
\begin{itemize}
\item The original theory was developed by Munn-Silbey{\tiny \footcite{Silbey1980}\footcite{Munn1985}\footcite{Munn1985a}} and further refined by Zhao et al. \footcite{JCP1994OntheMunn}\footcite{Chen2011}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
And the library.bib file only contains entries such as the one referenced:
#article{Silbey1980,
author = {Silbey, R. and Munn, R. W.},
doi = {10.1063/1.439425},
file = {:Users/Caco/Documents/Mendeley Desktop/General theory of electronic transport in molecular crystals. I. Local linear electron–phonon coupling R. Silbey and R. W. Munn.pdf:pdf},
issn = {00219606},
journal = {The Journal of Chemical Physics},
number = {4},
pages = {2763},
title = {{General theory of electronic transport in molecular crystals. I. Local linear electron–phonon coupling}},
url = {http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/jcp/72/4/10.1063/1.439425},
volume = {72},
year = {1980}
}
I'd like to be able to print a single reference from a Bibtex .bib file anywhere in my LaTeX document—not cite it, but print the reference, exactly as it would appear in the normal bibliography listing.
So if this is a regular citation, that prints a bracketed reference:
% Normal citation, appears as bracketed reference, e.g. [2]
\cite{Kawahara:2007p1116}
I want something like the following:
\print_citation{Kawahara:2007p1116}
which should print the full citation as it appears in the bibliography, something like:
[2] S Kawahara. Half rhymes in japanese rap lyrics and knowledge of similarity. Journal of East Asian
Linguistics, Jan 2007.
Is it possible?
Use \fullcite with the biblatex package as mentioned in this answer on tex.stackexchange.
bibentry package would provide inline bibliography. Ref: http://stefaanlippens.net/bibentry.
I've not tried it out myself though.
My CV uses multibib nicely:
\usepackage[resetlabels]{multibib}
% Define bibliographies.
\newcites{j,c}{Journal Publications,Conference Publications}
\begin{document}
% Stuff here.
% Publications.
\bibliographystylej{IEEEtran}
\bibliographystylec{IEEEtran}
\nocitej{journalpaperlabel1}
\nocitej{journalpaperlabel2}
\nocitec{conferencepaperlabel1}
\bibliographyj{mybib}
\bibliographyc{mybib}
% More stuff here.
\end{document}
Edited with something less self-promoting here.
See also this answer, that provides a trick using biblatex and its category system:
