One more question on the creation of driver for collection and incollection. Some of the book I cite have several section and are part of a collection edited by several editors. In short, the collection have only editor and the incollection may have an author who is either one of the editors or a totally different person.
Now, I must also follow some very strict rules, on the formatting of authors, editors, title as well as add a label "(edit. )" at the end of the editors lists. I've taken the code from standard biblatex and changed it according to the last question I had on book / thesis, to recycle the "cited as" functionnality.
At the moment, I'm getting about 60% of the target, as the cross-ref works fine. But I'm blocking on some of the formatting elements and probably some re-alignment with best-practive on bibmacro.
Here is also what I was given as reference/example. The (1) is the incollection item and the (2) is the collection.
Here is what I get with my current code :
Issues (1)
- Formatting of editors is off, the
\DeclareNameAlias[collection, incollection]{editor}{given-family:plain}has no effect. - formatting of the title in the incollection is also off.
- The label "(edit.)" is missing
- I'm about sure that the field chosen are not right for booktitle and so on.
- There are some funny spacing in front of the collection/incollection entries
- I'm not sure that the collection will not have never show a "cited as". The collection itself will never appears in the citation, but must appears as an effect of having one the crossref
Issues (2)
Thanks to @moewe comments, I was able to solve most of my issues in part 1. there are still some gap for the "edit" part, hence this addition hereby.
The label "(edit.)" is missing was solved by using the right \DeclareBibliographyStrings{editor = {{\'editeur}{\'edit\adddot}}} and using the standard {editor}, whose definition is in biblatex.def. this produce this kind of output :
Chiocchetti, édit., Commentario
I'd need some small changes in the edit to make it be like this :
Chiocchetti (édit.), Commentario
I've tried to copy-paste and edit the standard bibmacro, and change the macro. I now got some error with the spacing. The output is missing a space " " in the format, as this :
Chiocchetti(édit.), Commentario
\renewbibmacro*{editors}{%
\ifboolexpr{
test \ifuseeditor
and
not test {\ifnameundef{editor}}
}
{\printnames{editor}%
\setunit{\printdelim{editortypedelim}}%
\printtext[parens]{\usebibmacro{editorstrg}}%
\clearname{editor}}
{}}
So I'm (1) not sure where my mistake is and (2) no sure this is even the right approach.
Issues (3)
Just noted another funny effects in this example, the editors/author are inverted in comparison to others entries. "François Bohnet" instead of "Bohnet François". I don't understand why the \DeclareNameAlias{sortname}{family-given} do not work in this case ?

Best Answer
Summary of my changes :
Issue 1a. - Various editor format
Formatting of editors is off, the \DeclareNameAlias[collection, incollection]{editor}{given-family:plain} has no effect.
moewe comments was that "\DeclareNameAlias can only accept one value in the optional argument, it doesn't do several comma-separated values. So you need two lines \DeclareNameAlias[collection]{editor}{given-family:plain} \DeclareNameAlias[incollection]{editor}{given-family:plain}."
Change made
Replace the lines
by
Issue 1b. - Formatting title
formatting of the title in the incollection is also off.
moewe comments was that "[f]or the title you want \DeclareFieldFormat[incollection]{title}{#1}. The starred \DeclareFieldFormat*{title} turns all titles into italics, a following \DeclareFieldFormat[incollection]{title}` will then change the formatting for @incollection"
Change made
Replace the line
by
Issue 1c. - Correction of spacing (missing some %)
There are some funny spacing in front of the collection/incollection entries
moewe comments was that "[t]he unwanted spaces comes again from forgotten %s you need \DeclareBibliographyDriver{collection}{% and \DeclareBibliographyDriver{incollection}{% (i.e. you have to add a % after the {)"
Change made
Replace the line
by
and
Replace the line
by
Issue 1d. - Formating of (edit.)
The label "(edit.)" is missing
This issue was caused by two sources : (1) The current ShareLatex version is 3.7. Biblatex v3.8 offers more cutomization (2) My lbx was wrongly formatted and missing some field redefinition. Hence the change
Change made
this code was then inserted in the bbx file.
The spacing was not working, but this is due to my version biblatex being outdated. Hence, I've simply copied the latest version of the code.
in order to work, my lbx code needs a better formatting, as per Moewe comments. The code hereafter change the default "editor(s)" entry type with my updated version.
