Change position of year field in authoryear biblatex-style

Question

I'm supposed to adapt this bibliography style for the japanese JSME-Journal.

I already patched the authoryear style quite a bit, but two things I can't get right:

Place the (year) always in front of , pp. or the publisher, in case all that is not available just at the end
What is the easiest way to get the first letter of vol. and no. uppercase?

Any ideas?

That's how far I got:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}

\RequirePackage[
    natbib, 
    style=authoryear,           
    maxnames = 99,

Maybe use bibstyle=authortitle and citestyle=authoryear. We will still need to change stuff, but the base fits better. — moewe, Jul 12 '17 at 07:11
Of course you know that, but it is always better to ask only one question per question. I know an answer for point 2, but at the moment I'd feel stupid writing an answer when I can't cover point 1. — moewe, Jul 12 '17 at 07:12
@moewe, sorry for that, I thought as it deals with one particular style - it would better fit in one question. But yes you're right. — Robert Seifert, Jul 12 '17 at 08:01
It's too late now ;-). But for future questions you might want to keep that in mind. Even though it makes sense for you to ask these two questions at once because they belong to the same style, that does not help those trying to answer (if the only know a partial answer) nor those that seek help (if they have to find out which part of the answer addresses which question). — moewe, Jul 12 '17 at 08:07

You can use bibstyle=authortitle and citestyle=authoryear as basis. Then the year is already near the back.

Then use

\renewbibmacro*{in:}{}

\newbibmacro*{pubinstorg+location+date}[1]{%
  \setunit{\addspace}%
  \usebibmacro{date}%
  \newunit
  \printfield{chapter}%
  \setunit{\bibpagespunct}%
  \printfield{pages}%
  \newunit\newblock
  \printlist{#1}%
  \newunit}

\renewbibmacro*{organization+location+date}{\usebibmacro{pubinstorg+location+date}{organization}}
\renewbibmacro*{institution+location+date}{\usebibmacro{pubinstorg+location+date}{institution}}
\renewbibmacro*{publisher+location+date}{\usebibmacro{pubinstorg+location+date}{publisher}}

\renewbibmacro*{chapter+pages}{}

and

\renewbibmacro*{date}{\printtext[parens]{\printdate}}
\renewbibmacro*{issue+date}{%
  \printtext[parens]{%
    \printfield{issue}%
    \setunit*{\addspace}%
     \printdate}%
  \newunit}

For the capitalisation of volume and number, go with

\DeclareFieldFormat*{number}{\bibsentence\bibstring{number}\addnbspace#1}
\DeclareFieldFormat*{volume}{\bibsentence\bibstring{jourvol}\addnbspace#1}

Note how there is no need for

\DefineBibliographyStrings{german}{in={}}
\DefineBibliographyStrings{english}{in={}}

any more.

Thanks for that fast and complete answer- But there is one detail, which confuses me. I added another reference and with this one No. disappears and the pages appear two times. I guess it comes from \newbibmacro*{pubinstorg+location+date} but I don't know how to avoid that. Any idea? — Robert Seifert, Jul 12 '17 at 08:04
Now the inproceedings works, but the No. and Vol. of the article disappeared. — Robert Seifert, Jul 12 '17 at 08:10
@thewaywewalk Oh, I was missing a few stars, should be fixed now. — moewe, Jul 12 '17 at 08:13
