Package texlive-bib2gls

Command line application to convert .bib files to glossaries-extra.sty resource files

http://tug.org/texlive/

This Java command line application may be used to extract glossary information
stored in a .bib file and convert it into glossary entry definition commands.
This application should be used with glossaries-extra.sty's 'record' package
option. It performs two functions in one: selects entries according to records
found in the .aux file (similar to bibtex), hierarchically sorts entries and
collates location lists (similar to makeindex or xindy). The glossary entries
can then be managed in a system such as JabRef, and only the entries that are
actually required will be defined, reducing the resources required by TeX. The
supplementary application convertgls2bib can be used to convert existing .tex
files containing definitions (\newglossaryentry etc.) to the .bib format
required by bib2gls.
