I have a custom biblatex
style from my department that I compile from a dtx
file using TeX. After compiling it I can include it as a style in the same folder locally, and all works fine.
But I can't get it to work in Overleaf. I can't see any way to compile the biblatex
style in Overleaf. I've tried uploading all the related files including the bst
compiled on my machine and it tells me that there is an error in my .bbx
-file:
Package etoolbox Error: \mkdaterangetrunc undefined. See the etoolbox package documentation for explanation. Type H <return> for immediate help. ... l.383 \renewrobustcmd*{\mkdaterangetrunc}
The structure of my Overleaf project, with very little ommitted, is currently as follows. "bath" is the custom biblatex style, "main" is the document and "dissertation_bibliography" is my bibliography:
american-bath.lbx
bath.bbx
bath.bst
bath.cbx
bath.dbx
biblatex-bath.bib
biblatex-bath.dtx
biblatex-bath.ins
british-bath.lbx
dissertation_bibliography.bib
main.tex
Is this possible? Can I compile it on Overleaf somehow, or will moving the bst
from my machine work if I do it differently?
.bst
file here:biblatex
uses on a single.bst

at all? Is this only forbackend=bibtex

,.cbx
(and other files such as.lbx
and.dbx
) to Overleaf. I'm not sure if you can upload the.dtx
and compile that, but that you can do once on your machine and then use the resulting files. If the style files are compatible with the version ofbiblatex
that Overleaf is running, everything should work out fine.biblatex
uses only one.bst
file and that is unlikely to need change, so don't interfere with the.bst
