Set citation-related YAML options

Source: R/yml_citations.R

yml_citations() sets citation-related YAML fields, such as specifying a bibliography file or style. For controlling the citation engine in PDF documents, see the citation_package argument in rmarkdown::pdf_document().

yml_citations(
  .yml,
  bibliography = yml_blank(),
  biblio_style = yml_blank(),
  biblio_title = yml_blank(),
  csl = yml_blank(),
  citation_abbreviations = yml_blank(),
  link_citations = yml_blank(),
  nocite = yml_blank(),
  suppress_bibliography = yml_blank()
)
