The backend renders pybtex.richtext.Text instances into a list of docutils.nodes.Text and docutils.nodes.inline instances (or subclasses of these). For typical use cases, all you need to care about are the methods Backend.paragraph(), Backend.citation(), and Backend.citation_reference() which are to be called on formatted entries, as in the minimal example.
Note that you should not import the pybtex_docutils module directly. Instead, use pybtex’s plugin system to get the Backend class, again, as in the minimal example.
Bases: pybtex.backends.BaseBackend
alias of list
Return a docutils.nodes.paragraph containing the rendered text for entry (without label).
