Generate latex + bibtex citation commands by looking at what packages are imported in your Python code.


## Examples

Get bibtex records for packages used in a single script, and store to a `.bib` file in the current working directory:

```
makecite my_script.py
```

Get bibtex records for packages used in all `.py` scripts in the current directory and store to a `.bib` file called "software_refs.bib":

```
makecite --ext=.py -o software_refs.bib .
```

Get bibtex records for packages used in all `.py` scripts and IPython notebook, `.ipynb`, files in two paths `my_code` and `my_notebooks`:

```
makecite --ext=.py --ext=.ipynb my_code my_notebooks
```

Get bibtex records for packages used in all `.py` scripts in the current directory and output a AAS journals `\software{}` tag:

```
makecite --ext=.py --aas .
```
