CRediT authors in a book project

[ccamara]

Description

I know Journal Articles templates allow crediting authors using CRediT (see https://quarto.org/docs/journals/authors.html#roles).

I've tried to implement that into a book (see below) but either I'm doing something wrong or this feature is not (yet?) implemented for that particular type of project. I wonder if it would be possible to extend/apply that to books.

This is what I have on my _quarto.yml:

book:
  title: "My fancy title"
  author: 
  - name: Name Surname
    affiliation: University of Life
    role: 
    - conceptualization: lead
    - methodology: supporting

And this is what I get:

As you can see, no information about roles at all.

The authors/affiliations schema is a schema, meaning you can set those values and reuse them for your templates or partials. It does not mean that Quarto's default templates/partials use all the schema.

Assuming you are only talking about the HTML format, see HTML Partials to customise it as you see fit.
In your case you might want to tweak title-block.html.
