I was wondering if anyone has tried managing the whole bibtex database in Org.
Would be interested to know.

what exactly do mean by managing the database? I frequently have all
the bibtex entries in the document that uses them. I tangle them to
create a .bib file that is then referenced on export.
mind you, with John Kitchin's recent development of org-ref, I am
starting to rethink this approach.

Hi Vikas,
I manage my whole bibtex database on org. It makes my workflow more
integrated. It allows me to keep bib info, todo states and notes all in
the same place, and it allows me to access it all through the agenda. I
just periodically run org-bibtex to make sure that I have a updated bib
file. There are a few finicky things about the way that org-bibtex
imports bibtex entries, which I may try to look into when I have some
time, but overall I think it is quite useful.
All best,
Leonard

This is exactly what I have in mind. Would you mind sharing an example file, and may be an outline of your work flow?
What capture formats do you use for different document types?

I only switched over to using org-bibtex about 4 weeks ago, so I have
not yet perfected my workflow. However, I will try to give you some idea
of what has worked best for me thus far. I am rather busy for the next
couple of days, so I do not have the time to put together an example
file etc. right now, but hopefully I will have a bit of time this weekend.
All best,
Leonard

I also manage my whole bibtex database in Org. Here is my setup:
1) I store new readings as I come across them using a capture template.
(See the attached "reading.txt".) This template is pretty basic, but I
think it could easily be adapted to store more data, such as links to
PDFs, or automatically import Bibtex entries (over org-protocol?) using
a function from org-bibtex.
The relevant stanza from my org-capture-templates is:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
("dr" "Reading" entry
(file+olp ,dissertation-agenda-file "Reading list")
(file ,(concat org-template-directory "/reading.txt"))
:prepend t)
#+END_SRC
2) I use a post-capture hook to detect whether a captured entry is a
reading (it looks for the AUTHOR property) and optionally add
bibliographic data using org-bibtex-create-in-current-entry:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(defun add-bibliographic-data ()
; this is a bit hacky: we detect the AUTHOR property, and create bibtex entries if
; it is present
(message "optionally adding bibliographic data")
(if (and (org-entry-get (point) "AUTHOR")
(y-or-n-p "Add bibliographic data? "))
; with prefix arg to get all fields:
(org-bibtex-create-in-current-entry 1)
nil))
(add-hook 'org-capture-before-finalize-hook (lambda () (add-bibliographic-data)))
#+END_SRC
This completes the `front-end' portion of my setup, which gets data on
new readings into Org.
The `back-end' setup, which exports the captured entries to a .bib file,
involves a Makefile that calls wrappers around org-bibtex functions.
3) All the wrapper functions do is walk over the Org tree containing my
reading list, using org-map-entries, and export each entry with a
defined CUSTOM_ID value using org-bibtex-headline to a new buffer. (It
skips those with no CUSTOM_ID, since these won't produce valid bibtex
entries.) This buffer then gets saved as the new .bib file. The code
is in bib-export.el, attached.
Note that this code makes some assumptions about my setup (mostly that
all reading entries are stored under a top-level "Reading list" heading
in a certain Org file); it is not suitable for general use without some
adaptation.
You can call the wrapper functions from within Emacs using
M-x reading-list-to-bibtex.
4) I also call the wrapper functions from a Makefile. This allows me to
get a fresh copy of my .bib file whenever it's needed, just by typing
`make bib'. Here's the relevant stanza from the Makefile, which lives
in the same directory as the file containing my reading list
(tasks.org):
#+BEGIN_SRC make
EMACS=emacs
BATCH_EMACS=$(EMACS) --batch -Q --load lib/el/org-dissertation.el
build/dissertation.bib: tasks.org lib/el/bib-export.el
$(BATCH_EMACS) --load lib/el/bib-export.el --file tasks.org \
--funcall reading-list-to-bibtex
bib: build/dissertation.bib
#+END_SRC
That's it! Hope you find that useful.
Best,
Richard

Hi Vikas,
Sorry I did not reply earlier. Your original email prompted me to
develop a more functional workflow.
I have developed a few functions that make organizing research much
easier. I have functions that reorganize, rename, and add links to pdfs,
search for and add links to pdfs that have been organized by other
programs (Papers2), import notes from Skim, rename org-bibtex headlines
to a format I find more useful (e.g. Author (year) Title), and do a few
other things that I find convenient. The renaming functions also look up
crossrefs, and the headline renaming function lets you know if they are
missing. The functions are partially documented and have a few
customizable functions so they can be set up for different systems. Also
note that the pdf organizing system uses the conventions of my old
research organizing tool (Papers2) but this can be modified without too
much work. I have attached a file with the functions. The bottom of the
file also contains the variables that I have set and hooks that I have
added to make the functions integrate more smoothly into my set up. They
may serve as a guide if you choose to use them.
Additionally, here is the capture template I use for bibtex entries, it
is based largely on Richard's but it has you import more bibtex info
during the main capture process, and uses a function to help you find
crossrefs.
("r" "Reading" entry
(file+olp
"~/Google-Drive/Personal-Projects/Bib/Readinglist.org" "RLIST Inbox")
"** %^{Todo state|READ|FIND|PRINT|NOTES} [#%^{Priority|A|B|C}]
New Reading Entry %? %^{BIB_TITLE}p %^{BIB_AUTHOR}p %^{BIB_EDITOR}p
%^{BIB_YEAR}p %^{CUSTOM_ID}p %^g
:PROPERTIES:
:BIB_BTYPE: %^{Entry
type|book|article|inbook|bookinbook|incollection|suppbook|phdthesis|proceedings|inproceedings|booklet}
:ENTERED_ON: %U %(my-org-bibtex-crossref)
:END:" :prepend t)
When I have some time I will follow up to explain how the functions work
in more detail. In the mean time let me know if you have any questions.
All best,
Leonard

those look pretty useful. I have been working on some utilities to download
bibtex entries from a doi in emacs, and also the pdf if you have
permission, and the module knows how to do it. The code can be seen here:
https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/user/doi-utils.el
It is still a work in progress, but if you are lisp savvy it is hopefully
readable. It still needs some documentation, and the function names may
still change. I will probably integrate this code into an org-file to be
tangled to create the el file and provide the documentation.
The idea is to run
M-x insert-bibtex-entry-from-doi RET some-doi
and you will get a new cleaned bibtex entry at your cursor, the pdf will be
downloaded and saved as bibtex-key.pdf, and an entry in a notes.org file.
feedback would be welcomed!
