I've just used migration assistant to move to a new macbook. I only migrated my user account and installed all software anew, and I was up and running in an hour (if you have a thunderbolt cable, use that, so much faster).
-
It's in the auto-exports tab of the BBT preferences.
-
You can just not export files, then the exports will have the full path into your Zotero data directory.
-
The structure of the files folder has directories that are the attachment keys, right? If that's true, and you make no changes to your library between exports, those two exports should be identical, including the attachment-folder names. If RIS isn…

Also, yes, BetterBibTex does have JabRef metadata export -- but I think this just gives a list of collections, and doesn't specify which bibitem goes in which collection? It does specify which item goes into which collection, but it uses a different…

It does, as you can set any translator as the export format.
-
It causes problems where?
-
It's not documented. I've put up a sample at https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/issues/2713
-
There is a problem where auto-exports have a performance impact for which I am working on a solution.
-
With python 3 and the rispy library installed, this should do the job: import rispy import sys import os for ris in sys.argv[1:]: with open(ris) as f: for entry in rispy.load(f): for k, v in entry.items(): if k.startswith('file…

I think that in names, you can force first names like Philippe to be abbreviated to Ph by capitalizing the letters you want to have used as the initials, so PHilippe. Better BibTeX will pick that up and export that to {\relax Ph}ilippe for BibTeX, g…

Maybe it exports an invalid unicode codepoint and @nvradke is seeing the unicode replacement character.
-
I posted a build on the issue you opened that makes BBT recover from the error you experienced. That change is now in the general release of BBT, so upgrading will remove that error.
-
Suit yourself. I failed initially to understand the problem because you brought in irrelevant information; you said you had a script that only understands CSL JSON, and if that's so, then BBT JSON is out. Then you failed to understand my questions a…
-
I wish you luck in your debugging! ... Here is BetterBitTeX JSON example There's nothing to debug. BetterBitTeX JSON is not relevant to the discussion. The absolute simplest solution for my specific need was to duplicate and modify the translator ag…

BTW with BBT installed the citation key is actually in the Word doc, so pandoc could look if it's present and use that. Should be compatible with how Zotero will do it when citekey fields come to Zotero natively.
-
Wait -- you are saving in BetterBibTeX JSON, not Better CSL JSON. These two are entirely unrelated formats.
-
I'd still very much like to see a sample of such differences. "CSL JSON saves dates differently than BBT", if that means ""CSL JSON saves dates differently than BBT CSL JSON", means that one of them is off-standard, as the way dates are represented…
-
Feel free to use it any way that helps you of course :) . The way I had envisioned it was you'd run pandoc over the result to get you back to markdown - I don't see that round-tripping cleanly as an ongoing process, but that could well just be a li…
-
Oh yeah, only for a final conversion.
-
Wouldn't this work? https://retorque.re/zotero-better-bibtex/citing/migrating/
-
BBT export uses different names for fields and handles dates in the JSON different Different in what way? Most of the BBT CSL generation is done by Zotero itself, I only augment here and there, and CSL-JSON dates are in a standard format, so I don't…
-
Ah I see. Sorry about that. It's been a long day.
-
The prompt feedback is that I'm working on it and that I will need a few weeks. Switching to the Zotero 7 beta will work, but I don't know whether you can back out to Zotero 6.
-
Settings - Export - Misc - Enable caching for background exports (uncheck it if it is not already). I'm working on a change that will take some memory pressure off, but I expect to need a few weeks to get it implemented.
-
Zotero doesn't have any kind of auto export feature, and to my knowledge, BBT is the only plugin that adds it. BBTs auto export does rely on monkey patching. I am the sole author of BBT. There's no need for further encouragement. The explanation a…
-
And one place where they differ is that quoted parts in the input are treated differently. This isn't going to change on Zotero 7, the item box is really hard to extend the way I could in Zotero 6.
-
It's very close, but not 100% the same.
-
BBT is fully compatible with the beta, there's only one open display issue that's awaiting a new API in Zotero.
-
To my knowledge, nothing has changed.
