1:1 coupling between group hierarchy and file hierarchy #638

Closed koppor closed 1 year ago

koppor commented 1 year ago

JabRef offers groups (https://docs.jabref.org/finding-sorting-and-cleaning-entries/groups). Groups can be nested.

JabRef offers file attachment. Directories can be nested.

It would be great if the group hierarchy and the file hierarchy was consistent.

Features

  1. file added to a folder -> automatically added to the respective group
  2. Group moved -> file moved
  3. file moved -> entry assigned to another group

Regarding Feature 1: It could be even added to the group "new" so that a user knows that they need to investigate the new entry.

Will be refined at other places.
