how to cite in Rmarkdown chunk caption without using bookdown?












0















I am currently doing my thesis in Rmarkdown, and I have some citation I need in figure captions. I found a similar question in this page, yet the answer refers to the bookdown. In my case, I am using a .bib file.



My issue is that I have the thesis almost all written and the change to bookdown will probably bring errors which will be hard to debug now.



I have in the chunk:



{r yPlus, echo=FALSE, fig.cap="\label{fig:yPlus}Tipo de escoamento dado pela distânica à parede (adaptado de \cite{Versteeg:2007aa}).", fig.align="center"}


but when I run the Rmarkdown, I get [?] in the citation. I have tried citep as well, but it raises an error.



Is there a way to work around this issue without many complications? I am not very comfortable with all this yet.



Thank you all for the help.

  • You can change to bookdown with minimal interruption by using bookdown::pdf_document2 instead of pdf_document as output format. I would give this a try first.

  • Thank you, Ralf, for the suggestion. I have tried to perform the change, but it has started raising errors. I am afraid it will not be an easy change.

  • I have made it figure out what was the problem. For further reference, I was referring to figures in the chunk using fig.cap="\label{foo} my caption". When I have passed all to the r foo, fig.cap="my caption" I made it work. Another issue I found was some of the labels were like my_foo_label, so the "_" were bring issues as well. Once again, thank you, @RalfStubner.
