Relative library path? #43

Closed reox closed 1 year ago

reox commented 1 year ago

I tried to setup the plugin with a library that is not in ~/.logseq/storages/logseq-citation-manager (the readme tells me that the folder is called storage but apparently it is storages?). I tried to use a relative path to that directory (i.e., ../../../papers/references.bib), but that seems not to work. Do I understand this breaking change correctly that only files in that specific directory are read and nothing else? Thus, the only way to use other files outside that directory is by copying or linking? Or did I something wrong and thats why it wont read the file?

Don't add relative Org just type references.bib On 18 Oct 2022 at 1:10 PM +0400, reox @.***>, wrote:

yes - but that only works if the file is actually in that particular folder ;) I also read in another thread that the file has to be in that folder and no other folder can be used. Thus I solved it by symlinking the file to that location.
