Add an option for Google scholar baseurl #6

Closed Izumiko closed 2 years ago

Izumiko commented 2 years ago

It is difficult to access Google scholar without a proxy in China, so could you add an option to set the baseurl of Google scholar with a mirror site or to use an HTTP proxy to access Google scholar?

Would you provide some reliable mirror sites? In general, if you can use some proxy tools properly, they will automatically take over the system proxy and make Google services available.

Izumiko commented 2 years ago

Mirror sites die frequently, so it is hard to choose a reliable one. I think an option like zotero-scihub will be better, which let the users set their usable mirror. Besides, using proxy tools to take over the system proxy will add complexity to the network, I prefer setting the proxy inside each program other than system-wide.

I will consider adding a preference option to Zotero in the future. And I think it makes more sense to suggest Zotero to support an application-level proxy.
