Hal publication formatter provides Drupal field formatters that turn a simple text value (author IdHal, ORCID, structure acronym, collection code, etc.) into a live list of publications from the HAL API. No custom content type or block config is required—add a string/text field, choose a HAL formatter, and publications render on the entity.
Features
- HAL Publications formatter — query by IdHal, full name, author id, or ORCID
- HAL Structure Publications formatter — query by collection/portal code, structure acronym, or structure id
- Group by document type or year (or show a flat list)
- Limit per group / total limit, sort options, configurable HAL fl fields
- Themeable via hal-publications.html.twig
Use when: researcher profiles, lab/structure pages, or any entity that should show HAL deposits without copying them into Drupal.
Post-Installation

- Add a Text (plain) or Text field (e.g. on a person or organization content type) for the HAL identifier.
- Under Manage display, set the field formatter to HAL Publications or HAL Structure Publications.
- Configure query field, grouping, limits, and sort in the formatter settings.
- Enter the IdHal / structure value on content.
There is no global config page.
