BIBLIOMETRIX (WITH BIBLIOSHINY GUI) #
Install the “bibliometrix” r package:
For Bibliometrix v4 (Windows binary):
install.packages( c("bibliometrix"), type="win.binary")
Dependencies will be installed.
If type is not specified, you will be asked, and choose no:
Then restart RStudio, and run biblioshiny:
library(bibliometrix); biblioshiny()
which shows a locl web (v3 & v4):
which requires SCI or Scopus data. Here we use SCI (web of science/knowledge).
Go to SCI, search & refine (“Advanced Search” is better). Usually, we choose Core Collection + SCI:
Then export results as “Full Records and Cited References”. If not available, use “marked list” with steps as below.
Add all results to a new “marked list”:
Go to the “marked list” (can be searched):
Refine by “Core Collection”, “Export” as “Plain text” (“BibTeX” causes M-object issues) with “Full Records and Cited References”.
(WARN: make sure to follow those steps exactly !!!)
(Needs to export several times if more than 500 records, then combine them into one file: “type 1.txt 501.txt > all.txt” etc.)
Now, it is ok to import the file into Shiny Web UI.
Usually, do NOT use the “Filter” step/tab.
WARN: close the old browser tab before running a new Shiny.
faq #
Problem: “ERROR: The size of the connection buffer (131072) was not large enough to fit a complete line. Increase it by setting Sys.setenv("VROOM_CONNECTION_SIZE").”
Reasons: 1. file format wrong (should be Unix-LF with UTF-8-BOM); 2. vroom is small.
Solution: 1. correct file format; 2. Sys.setenv("VROOM_CONNECTION_SIZE" = 131072 * 2); library(bibliometrix); biblioshiny().

A brief introduction to bibliometrix (usage).
ref as slides.
Problem: “Object ‘M’ not found.”
Reason: github.
Solution: use raw/plain text instead of .bib format.
Problem: Buggy versions. For Bibliometrix v3 (WARN: use v<3.2 or v>=4, otherwise buggy):
install.packages( c("C:/path/to.zip"), type="win.binary")
# and dependencies:
install.packages( c("rio", "haven", "shinycssloaders", "wordcloud2", "ggmap", "maps", "visNetwork"), type="win.binary")
