I'm trying to use
knitcitations
and add bibliography to the R Markdown document that I'm drafting in R Studio. The header of my document looks like this:I want to add the bibliography at the end using the following code:
The reference file
bibliography.bib
has the following content:However, the produced output appears as comments, not as bibliographic entry:
The file is compiled with this code:
For brevity, I changed the paths to
_paper
and _paper
.When I tried to follow the advice on including bibliography in RStudio the document was produced with no bibliographic entries at all. Hence my question, where I'm making the mistake and how can I force generation of bibliographic entries when working in RStudio?
Following very useful comments, ideally I would like to avoid explicitly indicating cited works in the attached document. As a matter of fact, I'm interested in including bibliography that will consist of some cited works but also papers that are relevant to the main document but are not explicitly referenced in the document.

The pandoc documentation says:
If you want to include items in the bibliography without actually citing them in the body text, you can define a dummy nocite metadata field and put the citations there:
In this example, the document will contain a citation for item3 only, but the bibliography will contain entries for item1, item2, and item3.

references.bib
Console output
paper.pdf

If you want to include all references in the bibtex file, you can use, as mentioned by frankyan here
