9 digits won't cut it because mapping to charcodes will at least double the number of places needed. I can trivially expose the itemID, but these are bound to the local database. If you sync, the same item is almost guaranteed to get a different it…

I could have BBT generate numeric keys. I don't know if there are limitations to how large the keys can be for DistillerSR, but if there's no practical limitation, I could just transform the citekeys to their char-code equivalents during export. Or …

BBT should automatically double-brace if you use a single-part name.
-
Unfortunately, original authors are not recognized, although they are mentioned in the documentations. So, they do not show up in the style preview in Zotero, and they do not show up in the biblatex file exported with BetterBibTeX. original-author s…
-
You can set auto-exports to on-demand, or to activate when Zotero is idle, rather than activate on any change. Also, while it won't necessarily be any faster to complete the export, they're now done on a background thread as of a few months ago I t…

BBT JSON does know about attachments. It's mostly just a dump of the items as they're handed to translators with cleanup. I use it in my test framework, but when BBT is installed it's available as any other import/export format.
-
This is indeed not something BBT does.
-
This usually indicates that the same author published multiple works in the same year, and the post-fix disambiguates them in the bibliography.
-
Bibtex is very friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are :) You might be able to get that with just adding getcollections to the csv translator header. Have not tested.

That is the path to the file. You need to open that file using a text editor and edit the contents of that file. I honestly don't know how to explain the concept of file contents. What you're posting here is the file *name*. I need the actual text t…

Sorry: you need to paste the contents of /usr/bin/zotero into pastebin. If you then click "Create New Paste", your browser will be redirected from https://pastebin.com/ to something like https://pastebin.com/zebuLLHH, where you'll see the contents y…

What is the best way will vary from person to person -- I'm not saying the debs are the best way, but they will help you keep Zotero up to date with the GUI tooling you're likely to be familiar with, with no command-line work beyond initial setup. …
-
Don't worry about it. If you can put the contents of /usr/bin/zotero on https://pastebin.com/ I can probably tell you how to uninstall Zotero from your system. Not that I'm not necessarily advocating for installing the debs rather than doing it man…
-
Inside that file you'll find the actual path of the zotero binary. But this was almost certainly installed as root. I would recommend against running zotero as root (which would allow zotero to upgrade itself), but to either re-do the installation t…
-
That's likely a symlink. What does file /usr/bin/zotero say?
-
If you type which zotero on the command line it should give you a full path to the binary.

which zotero

@danmackinlay in the javascript runner under the developer menu, run await Zotero.Translators.reinit() in async mode
-
BBT hasn't co-opted cmd-shift-C -- BBT has no interaction of any kind with the shortcuts system in Zotero at all. What you see in the menu in that screenshot is Zotero displaying the selected translator for quick copy, but other than Zotero calling …
-
The pathSearch error is harmless. I'm testing for the existence of a binary in the PATH, but FileUtils.File errors out if I give it a non-existing path, even if I do intend to later check for .exists() and .isFile. I log the error and proceed.
-
No worries. I'm open to adding the tagging stuff, but I built the plugin pretty much as a prototype for a PR to submit to Zotero. The more functionality I add, the larger the chunk of work is they have to accept or deny. There's also the thing tha…

This is from vague memory, but IIRC the translators that have "getCollections" on do recursive exports. Try BibTeX or RIS to see if you get all your items.
-
The problem reported on the BBT GH is that the newest BBT won't install in Z5.0.58 -- if profile corruption plays a role there, I'd rather not chase after that phantom.
-
I can't currently reproduce the problem that BBT can't install, but I'd strongly prefer it if you could test whether BBT installs correctly on a clean profile on that machine. If it does, then it seems to me the problem is associated with the profil…

This might be related to this: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/zotero-dev/v6S6kS6JwRg the translators don't become active until after Zotero.Schema.schemaUpdatePromise resolves, and that doesn't happen until the styles have been checked (a…

It's typescript , which is a javascript superset -- the error you are seeing is because of the declare, but it also uses some other sources not available outside the plugin. The stripped variant would be: const JournalAbbrev = new class { async…

Yep: https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/blob/master/content/journal-abbrev.ts

(that will also help with setting these keys rather than typing them in 400 extra fields)
