docs: update readme #50

Closed jghauser closed 6 months ago

Fixed a couple of things in the readme:

I think we should still improve this by saying what's the best option. At the moment there are two import options and no indication which one is preferred.

alexfikl commented 6 months ago

This looks good to me! Let me know when you think it's ready to merge from your side as well.

As for a preferred method, I'm not really sure, since I've never actually used this to do an import. I would vote for the SQL method, since that has access to all of Zotero's metadata, in case they ever decide to skip on some things in the BibTeX export.

Yeah, I also haven't used this in a long time, so I'm unsure. Maybe @kiike has an idea?

kiike commented 6 months ago

SQL for sure should be the preferred option. I think the only reason to not use it would be either if you are somehow getting import problems or if you're afraid the import process will eat your data. I really can't think of another scenario.

jghauser commented 6 months ago

thanks both of you for your input @alexfikl and @kiike. i'm gonna re-organise the readme so the preferred option is clearly indicated and at the top!

jghauser commented 6 months ago

ok, i think this is done. I also moved the development information to the bottom, so that the info useful to users comes first.

alexfikl commented 6 months ago

Looks a lot nicer! Thank you :grin:

There's some new nix stuff on main from #49. Can you update the PR with that and also move it to the Development section?

jghauser commented 6 months ago

Ok will do. I'll leave the stuff that relates to installing on nix with the flake in the installation section and add a bit on the devshell in the development section

jghauser commented 6 months ago

That's all done now! :)

Perfect! Thank you! :rocket:
