ADSQUERY(1)           User Contributed Perl Documentation          ADSQUERY(1)

NAME

adsquery - tool to query ADS and print out the result

SYNOPSIS

adsquery --author="Jenness,T."

DESCRIPTION

Command line interface to the "Astro::ADS" classes. Given some query parameters (such as author) a query is sent to the ADS and the result is sent to standard output.

ARGUMENTS

The following arguments are recognized: --help Print a usage message. --man List the full documentation. --version The version number. --author Specify the author to use for the query. Multiple authors can be specified simply by using the option more than once. adsquery --author="Author1" --author="Author2" --bibcode Specify a bibcode to use for the query. If a bibcode (or multiple bibcodes) is specified then any authors supplied are ignored since a bibcode is unique. --bibfile Name of a file containing multiple bibcodes. One bibcode per line. If the file can not be found the command aborts. --count Simply counts the number of papers that match the query and exits. --useor Use OR logic with the author list. Default is to AND the authors for the query. --xml Output the results in XML where the element names are the same as the query fields. The top level element is <ADSResult>. Default is to print a tabulated ASCII result. --debug Turn on debug messages. Default is off.

BUGS

Currently only a single bibcode is used for a bib query even if multiple values are supplied.
