Better integration with Zotero #1363

Closed raffaem closed 4 months ago

raffaem commented 1 year ago

There are some differences from the field exported by Zotero (at least the BetterBibTex plugin) and the ones al-folio expects:

  1. Zotero exports journaltitle and shortjournal, while al-folio expects journal
  2. Zotero only exports date (ISO 8601 format, e.g. "2023-07-01"), while al-folio expects a year
  3. Zotero exports url, while al-folio expects pdf

I don't know how much of this would be opinionated, or if it is a standard. For example, this could better support Zotero, but make it worse for Mendeley (personally I don't use any for citations). Also many conferences vary in citation styles.

I stumbled on this issue when upgrading from v0.9 to v0.10.x. In v0.9, date was working flawlessly for me. Due to the new group_by behavior, the date field is no longer working. al-folio now expects a year field.

My Solution was to tell Zotero to use the Better Bibtex instead of the Better BibLaTex format. The former one uses year.
