Zotero.File.move() now forces `overwrite` if the old and new filenames
differ only by case, since otherwise on a case-insensitive filesystem
OS.File.move() does an existence check and thinks that the target file
exists.
Previously, if an object was uploaded but the API returned 'unchanged',
the uploaded data would be written to the sync cache, which, given that
most requests are patch requests, could result in an empty or mostly
empty object being saved to the sync cache. That would cause the next
sync to treat most/all local fields as changed and either upload them
unnecessarily or trigger a conflict instead of merging changes
automatically.
When non-conflicting changes were automatically merged, the local object
would be correctly marked as unsynced, but the merged object rather than
the remote object would be saved to the sync cache. When the object was
then uploaded, it matched the cache version exactly, so an empty patch
object (other than an unchanged dateModified, which is always included)
would be uploaded and the local change wouldn't make it to the server.
The empty patch would result in an 'unchanged' response, which would
cause the empty patch object to be saved to the sync cache (which is a
bug that I'll fix separately). If the local object was modified again,
the patch would include all fields (since the cache object was empty)
and the local change would be uploaded, but there could also be
unnecessary conflicts due to it looking like all local fields had been
modified.
This patch causes the remote object to be saved to the sync cache
instead, so the local change looks like a local edit and is correctly
uploaded.
Don't include linked-object or replaced-item relations. Previously, if
you duplicated an item, modified it to represent a different source, and
dragged it to another library where you had already copied the original
item, the new item wouldn't be transferred.

- When changing type based on 'type:' line, move existing fields that
are no longer valid to Extra
- Remove 'type:' line with CSL type if the item's existing type is one
of the types mapped to it
It shouldn't be possible to nest two collections inside each other, but
if it happens, fix it in the integrity check.
Also detect it from CollectionTreeView::expandToCollection() (used when
showing the collections containing an item) and crash Zotero with a flag
to run an integrity check after restart. Previously, this would result
in an infinite loop.
This may be the cause of some of the collection disappearances people
have reported. If parentCollectionID never leads to a null, the
collection won't appear anywhere in the tree.
TODO:
- Figure out how this is happening
- Detect and fix it automatically for people it's happened to
If you'd never set a Quick Copy locale, the option would show as using
the current locale, but Quick Copy itself would use the last locale from
"Create Bibliography from Items". That was a side effect of behavior we
put in place in 2015 so that documents created before 4.0.27 that relied
on the removed bibliographyLocale pref would continue using the migrated
locale, but now that we've had an explicit locale option for years in
the document preferences I think we can stop doing that.
Previously, files updated remotely wouldn't be downloaded in "as needed"
mode if a copy of the file already existed locally and could only be
re-downloaded by deleting the file via Show File.
This causes remotely modified files that exist locally to be downloaded
at sync time, even in "as needed" mode, by marking them as
"force_download". While this might not be ideal for people who use "as
needed" to limit data transfer, it's better for people who use it simply
to limit local storage, and ending up with an outdated file while
offline seems worse than a little bit of extra data transfer.
In the future, we'll likely also provide ways to explicitly download and
remove files, so keeping chosen files in sync makes sense.
Files modified remotely before this change (which were marked as
"to_download" instead of "force_download") won't be downloaded as sync
time in "as needed" mode, but they'll now be re-downloaded on open.
Fixes#1322
- Use full-text cache file from syncing if available when reindexing via
info pane or Rebuild Index → Index Unindexed Items. Only discard it for
full index rebuild. This allows Index Unindexed Items to be used to
force immediate processing of queued content from syncing and avoids
unnecessary syncing back of identical content. Previously, the cache
file was used for a manual index only when the local file didn't exist.
- When rebuilding index, don't clear indexed items with missing local
file that are missing stats due to a pre-411180ef bug.
- indexItems() now takes an 'options' object as its second parameter
- Minor code cleanup
- Don't clear item's index stats (and show "Unknown") when an item is
reindexed remotely and the content matches the local content
- Always update an item's state and its stats in the same query, to
avoid incorrect feedback immediately after indexing
- Clean up `setItemContent()` tests
This is a prerequisite for starting to use new fields in translators,
since otherwise switching from, say, storing originalDate in Extra to
using an originalDate field would cause the value to be lost in clients
without the newer schema.
Closes#1504
Follow-up to df40ee7216
- Restore opening of non-HTTP URL schemes in link attachments
- Remove scheme whitelist for link attachments, since it's not enforced
via the API anyway and we prompt before an external application is
opened. Instead, just block a few schemes (e.g., 'javascript') from
launching.
TODO:
- Provide some way to change/reset an application association if the
user checks the box to automatically open that scheme.
- Show an error message if a link attachment with an invalid URL is
double-clicked
- Support launching plausible HTTP URLs without schemes from
Zotero.loadURI(), and use that when launching from URL field
- Show correct cursor feedback on URL label -- only show pointer if the
URL is launchable
- Don't launch non-HTTP URLs (e.g., zotero://) from URL field
- Don't open HTTP URLs in viewer when using ZoteroPane.launchURI()
It shouldn't be possible for collections to be nested this way, if it
happens, it shouldn't result in an infinite loop.
This removes one of the parent assignments at sync time.
Improvements:
- Fixes autocomplete text remaining in field after selection in Fx60
- No more text or icon shifting on select (tested on macOS)
Changes:
- Tags are now selected on mousedown with no active state, as in web
library
Regressions:
- Tooltip with tag type doesn't appear when hovering over icon
- Pressing Tab after modifying a tag loses focus
- Right-click in textbox shows custom menu instead of default text
editing context menu (Cut/Copy/Paste)
To-do:
- Switch to this version for note tags box
- Style colored tags in autocomplete drop-down? Sort to top?
- Only show delete button on row hover, as in web library?
This was a regression from 4b60c6ca27. The original plan for introducing
new fields was to have them save to the sync cache even if they weren't
supported by the current Zotero version and process them on upgrade, and
so I changed `DataObjectUtilities.patch()` to omit fields that didn't
exist locally when patching the sync cache JSON so they wouldn't be
wiped on the server. That caused this bug where locally deleted fields
were restored on every sync. It's also no longer necessary now that
we decided to just reject unknown fields from saving, so we can just
revert to the previous behavior of blanking out locally missing fields
(with the tweak that fields that are already false or empty in the base
version can be omitted).
And fix a couple things for if we turn it back on
This code came along with the type/field handling overhaul, but I think
it was originally intended for handling unknown fields during sync
before we decided on strict mode, so it wasn't finished and causes
various problems [1]. It could still be useful for preserving fields
from translators before they're available on items, but the better fix
there is just to add the missing fields, so I'm not sure if we'll end up
needing it.

Say "Use the [local|remote] version for all remaining conflicts" for
everything instead of saying "Use [local|remote] fields for all
remaining conflicts" for some conflicts.
This also fixes a test failure after 54343c49fb.
This changes the way item types, item fields, creator types, and CSL
mappings are defined and handled, in preparation for updated types and
fields.
Instead of being predefined in SQL files or code, type/field info is
read from a bundled JSON file shared with other parts of the Zotero
ecosystem [1], referred to as the "global schema". Updates to the
bundled schema file are automatically applied to the database at first
run, allowing changes to be made consistently across apps.
When syncing, invalid JSON properties are now rejected instead of being
ignored and processed later, which will allow for schema changes to be
made without causing problems in existing clients. We considered many
alternative approaches, but this approach is by far the simplest,
safest, and most transparent to the user.
For now, there are no actual changes to types and fields, since we'll
first need to do a sync cut-off for earlier versions that don't reject
invalid properties.
For third-party code, the main change is that type and field IDs should
no longer be hard-coded, since they may not be consistent in new
installs. For example, code should use `Zotero.ItemTypes.getID('note')`
instead of hard-coding `1`.

- Move 5xx retries and connection checking out of the sync API client
and into HTTP.request() so that they apply to all requests. 429 handling
remains in the API client, since not all callers necessarily want to
handle that the same way. Callers can still handle 5xx themselves by
including the relevant 5xx status codes in `successCodes` or by passing
`errorDelayMax: 0`.
- Add `cancellerReceiver` option, which is a callback that receives a
function that will cancel the request, whether it's an active request
or an automatic delay before a 5xx retry.
This also updates Sinon to 7.3.2.
`nsIFilePicker::show()` is removed in Firefox 60 in favor of `open()`,
which takes a callback (and apparently has been preferred for a long
time).
There's no point switching to that, so this module is a version of
nsIFilePicker with an async `show()` that returns a promise and some
XPCOM-isms replaced (e.g., string paths instead of nsIFile).
nsIURL doesn't seem to work anymore, so add Zotero.Utilities.parseURL(),
which uses the `url` package from NPM and adds fileName, fileExtension,
and fileBaseName.
Zotero.Translate::setTranslatorProviderMethods(methods) can be used to
provide custom 'get' and 'getAllForType' methods that override the
default Zotero.Translators methods.
Separate flags for hiding the retraction altogether and for hiding
citation warnings for it

Zotero.Retractions.disableCitationWarningsForItem(item)
Addresses #1710
If an object changed on both sides and the changes were either
non-conflicting or identical but there were other local changes, the
local object was incorrectly being marked as synced, causing it not to
be uploaded until it was next modified locally.
