You need to include the \usebtxdataset [ref.bib] in an environment file
that gets read each run.

A limitation, or rather a design goal, of the bibliography subsystem is
that citations will not work unless you render the bibliography list.

You can, of course, cheat:

 \setbox\scratchbox\vbox{\placelistofpublications}


There is a ConTeXt mechanism for this:

\startnointerference
    \placelistofpublications
\stopnointerference

You need to include the \usebtxdataset [ref.bib] in an environment file
that gets read each run.

A limitation, or rather a design goal, of the bibliography subsystem is
that citations will not work unless you render the bibliography list.
Why is this? The reasoning is that it makes no sense to give list
numbers or list labels (e.g. APA : authoryear) if there is no list, for
these numbers or labels depend on the context (bibliography by chapter,
by part, by volume, or by book, for example).

We have not done much with same page, footnote bibliographic
references. I do not use that style as I always like having a
bibliography list.


Best is to compile the entire product and then use some tool (qpdf,
pdftk, etc.) to select out a certain range of pages. ConTeXt has gotten
fast enough that this should not be a real problem.

Dear list,

I am using the project structure to typeset my thesis. This is how the 
directory looks like:


chapters/chapter1.tex
chapters/chapter2.tex
…

output/
env_thesis.tex
prd_main.tex
ref.bib

I didn’t use the project.

1. How do I specify output directory?


context --runpath=output ...


I have already seen the following thread:

https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg101654.html

It doesn’t seem to work on a project. So for example when I run mtxrun 
—path=output --script context ../prd_main, I get this error:


tex error on line 5 in file 
/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/doc/latex/buctthesis/chapter1.tex: 
! Undefined control sequence


How do you load the chapter file in your product file?

The error message above appears because ConTeXt can't find the chapter 
file of your document and uses one with the same name from a 
documentation of a LaTeX class which has the same name.


2. How do I get CoTeXt to recognise the ref.bib file when I run the 
components not the product?


For context, I don’t want the references printed at the end of each 
chapter but I would like the in-text citation to work (if that is 
possible). If not, is it possible compile the whole product but only 
output a certain page range?


You need a reference to the environment file from within the component 
file, otherwise ConTeXt has no knowledge of the bib file.


Wolfgang
