Generate Citation for Stock Assessment Report

create_citation(
  authors = NULL,
  title = "[TITLE]",
  year = format(as.POSIXct(Sys.Date(), format = "%YYYY-%mm-%dd"), "%Y")
)

Arguments

authors: A character vector of author names with their accompanying affiliations. For example, a Jane Doe at the NWFSC Seattle, Washington office would have an entry of c("Jane Doe"="NWFSC-SWA"). Information on NOAA offices is found in a database located in the package: system.file("resources", "affiliation_info.csv", package = "asar"). Keys to the office addresses follow the naming convention of the office acronym (ex. NWFSC) with a dash followed by the first initial of the city then the 2 letter abbreviation for the state the office is located in. If the city has 2 or more words such as Panama City, the first initial of each word is used in the key (ex. Panama City, Florida = PCFL)
title: A custom title that is an alternative to the default title (composed in asar::create_title()). Example: "Management Track Assessments Spring 2024".
year: Year the assessment is being conducted. Default is the year in which the report is rendered.
