Files should appear as attachments in the middle column under the imported entry; Zotero does not have a file field. Files listed in a file field in the bib file you're importing should be imported into Zotero automatically. We'd need to see a samp…
-
@henrex the citekeys generated by Zotero without Better BibTeX only exist during export, not before or after; the disambiguation postfix (-1, -2, etc) is only determined at time of export among the items exported together. If you export both "Organi…

I'm fixing some of the weirdness of the BBT prefs panes, but documentation on how to get the prefs pane to behave is pretty scant. It's mostly fuzzing to see what works.
-
That I don't know.

Latest for Mac is 5.0.96.1. You can just download the latest version from the Zotero website and drag it into place (with the old Zotero cmd-quited). It will pick up your existing data.
-
That I can't help you with, I don't have access to a windows system.
-
It looks like you can pass it a -profile command line switch to select a profile in a specific directory, but the location of profile.ini is not configurable. Under windows it would not be hard to change the shortcut to include that profile switch.
-
There's also BBTs pull-export. It currently only does per-collection or per-library pull, but per-item views would be trivial to do. If you don't yet have the citekey, BBTs CAYW should work.
-
There's a way around that, but it's not trivial to set up. Zotero can be automated with some jerry-rigging, so you can set it up on a server to start, sync, export, and Dropbox or git could bring it to over leaf. You'd run this on a schedule, make s…
-
As long as you pin your keys and/or choose your citekey pattern uniformly across participants, there should be no problem having all participants set up auto-export on their own system, saving to the dropbox folder.

Add the column: https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/blob/master/content/ZoteroPane.xul#L67, the id should be zotero-items-column-[fieldname] listen to uninstalls: https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/blob/master/content…

There's very little limit on what you can do. Some bits are harder to do than others. What you describe here will likely require runtime patching (aka monkey-patching), and that's an easy way to mess with zotero's stability. Great care must be taken…
-
I mean it's easy to add new columns for existing item fields, and they'd show up automatically in the column selector. It's a more work to add non-existing columns (such as BBts citekey column), but not a whole lot. The one tricky bit is scrubbing …
-
It's not hard to add an existing column with a plugin.
-
I haven't found a manner to sync plugin data that would be robust. The only stuff that syncs cleanly that I could (ab)use are notes and extra fields, but if you chuck "the" metadata note, you'd lose everything. I've tried abusing the rdf relations, …

If it works, it works.

(WARNING: the above script would blithely overwrite export-test.md, export-test.html, export-test-2.md and export-test-2.html. It does no checking to see if these exists)
-
But if you just want a rendered bibliography for all each export, you can do that directly in python. No need to involve pandoc when you don't actually have a source doc to render.
-
This will take all the csl-json files on the command line, generate a doc on the fly for it, and render to html #!/usr/bin/python3 import json import sys import os import shlex for src in sys.argv[1:]: if os.path.splitext(src)[1] == '.json': …
-
of the pastebin JSON? No, I understand that that is your bibliography. You want a rendered bibliography, right? You need to have a source document that cites these sources.
-
I'm not sure what your command line means -- here is what I would use pandoc -s --bibliography csl-json-file.json --citeproc --csl csl-style.csl source-document -o output-document
-
What is the source document?
-
BBT will preserve markup it knows about, which is a fair lot. If you have html not yet supported that isn't crazy complex (I've shied away from tables for example) I can probably add it. BBT preserves double-newlines and \par as newlines -- I'm not…
-
I'd appreciate it if you could file an issue for that on https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/issues. I can't fix problems I don't know about.
-
Can you put up the files somewhere so I can have a go (and correct, I'm retorquere in most places)
-
Personally I'd use pandoc with CSL rather than bibtex (no t at the end) unless you're producing PDF through latex, and my guess would be you don't have a latex toolstack installed. If you want anything else but that (eg you want Word), I'd use CSL. …
-
I have done something similar, but I did so using biblatex. I used a BBT postscript to turn the collections into tags on the items, and then made a sectioned bibliography using defbibfilter/filter= and keyword= on printbibliography. It is technical…
-
If you install Zotero from snaps you may run into the same containerization issue. https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb has classical .debs for zotero (packaged by me -- they're the official Zotero binaries bit-for-bit, but the packaging itself …
-
With BBT installed, you could add something like tex.crossref: ICRC2015 to your extra field, and you'd get crossref = {ICRC2015} in your output.
-
Our messages overlapped, but that is exactly the scenario I meant, and there's nothing I can do. Before the upgrade, BBT can't anticipate it would need to de-install, and after, it won't run at all, so I can't clean up.
