Embedded metadata #19

Open dstillman opened 8 years ago

dstillman commented 8 years ago

When viewing a publications list with Zotero installed — on- or off-site — Zotero should offer to save the items in the list.

Unfortunately our metadata options here aren't great, which is somewhat depressing at this point in Zotero's development. We can get COinS from the API, but it's lossy. Something like RDFa would probably be best, but we don't support that currently. We could probably hook up an API-powered unAPI endpoint easily, but since unAPI seems basically dead (the website is down), just writing an RDFa translator might be a better use of time.

So it sounds like RDFa is the way to go, I'll take a stab at generating correct attributes and see how it goes.

tnajdek commented 8 years ago

So rather than generate attributes in zotero-publications, we should obtain RDFa markup from the API and render that. However this is currently not possible as there's no RDFa translator hence marking as blocked for now.

Rather than RDFa, this will use JSON-LD, which we'll be supporting in Zotero.
