biblatexpunctuation
I use square brackets around my citations (/parencite) from the answer to Biblatex, author-year, square brackets.
So now I have
[Doe 1995]
in text. But I would like to have
[Doe (1995)]
in text.
The way the bibliography is should not change. It now is like this:
Doe, J. (1995), …
How do I achieve this?
An alternative to lockstep's solution is to redefine the high-level parentheses commands. With the default option setting parentracker=true, these are context-sensitive; nested parentheses may be set as brackets, depending on the nesting level.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
%\ExecuteBibliographyOptions{parentracker=false}
\makeatletter
\newrobustcmd*{\parentexttrack}[1]{%
\begingroup
\blx@blxinit
\blx@setsfcodes
\blx@bibopenparen#1\blx@bibcloseparen
\endgroup}
\AtEveryCite{%
\let\parentext=\parentexttrack%
\let\bibopenparen=\bibopenbracket%
\let\bibcloseparen=\bibclosebracket}
\makeatother
\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}

For citations see Audrey's answer to Biblatex, author-year, square brackets.
For the bibliography, brackets instead of braces around the year can be achieved as follows (Note: This is very similar to my accepted answer to biblatex: How to remove the parentheses around the year in authoryear style?):
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
% By courtesy of Enrico Gregorio (egreg)
\makeatletter
\def\act@on@bibmacro#1#2{%
\expandafter#1\csname abx@macro@\detokenize{#2}\endcsname
}
\def\patchbibmacro{\act@on@bibmacro\patchcmd}
\def\pretobibmacro{\act@on@bibmacro\pretocmd}
\def\apptobibmacro{\act@on@bibmacro\apptocmd}
\def\showbibmacro{\act@on@bibmacro\show}
\makeatother
\patchbibmacro{date+extrayear}{%
\printtext[parens]%
}{%
\printtext[brackets]%
}{}{}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@misc{A01,
author = {Author, A.},
year = {2001},
title = {Alpha},
}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\nocite{*}
\begin{document}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
With regard to replacing "and" with "&": Search this site (or the biblatex manual) for \multinamedelim and \finalnamedelim.

That's a lot of brackets and braces, but here we go. :-) I suggest to use Audrey's answer to the linked question and to add a redefinition of the
citebibmacro (namely, to add parentheses to thecite:labelyear+extrayearbibmacro).
