Handle an array of objects with 'url' and 'version' rather than just an
array of URLs.
Also:
- Don't throw an error from addOpenAccessPDF() if there's an error from
getOpenAccessPDFURLs()
- Make addPDFFromURLs() a separate function so URL lookup can be done
separately from download
Previously the handler would be called even on error pages, which often
meant that an import translator (e.g., BibTeX) would fail to find
anything on the page and the save popup would just close silently. The
popup will now show an error message as soon as the error occurs.
Use `getResource` in Zotero.Date.init (this turns it into a
synchronous function). Zotero.File.getResource makes it easier
to load local files on platforms that do not support the
`resource://` URLs.
At some point Mendeley seems to have changed the default path to the
data directory on Windows to remove the period, and for people with the
old directory we were linking rather than storing attachment files from
"Downloaded".
E.g., if a .pdf is really an HTML file, we try to load it in a hidden
browser (because we properly detect the content type), but then the .pdf
extension causes the hidden browser to launch it via the OS and the
hidden browser never finishes loading it. This adds a 5-second timeout
to abort the process.
When the associated-files pref is enabled, Add Item by Identifier uses a
Zotero Unpaywall mirror to find available open-access PDFs. No details
about the contents of searches are logged.
For each PDF with an associated URL in the Downloaded directory, we were
copying all files in the directory (!) to the attachment's storage
directory. (Zotero imports always have files in separate directories,
and this was a function used to save both single files and HTML
snapshots.)
We'll clean up the extra files in a separate step.
If "Place imported collections and items into new collection" is
unchecked, previously imported collections will be reused when they're
in the right place in the hierarchy rather than creating new ones.
Use the new wizard for all imports (even if no Mendeley DB), and add a
page with a "Place imported collections and items into new collection"
option. If deselected, collections are added to the library root.
If there's a single PDF file and a single PDF URL and the file exists,
make an imported_url attachment instead of separate file and linked_url
attachments.
Addresses #1451
Accept Mendeley SQLite databases via File → Import… and perform a
direct import, including collections, timestamps, notes, attachments,
and extracted annotations.
When a Mendeley database is present, File → Import… shows a wizard that
lets you choose between a file and Mendeley for the source, and choosing
the latter shows a list of available databases in the Mendeley data
directory.
Known fields that aren't valid for a type are stored in Extra.
Files in the Mendeley 'Downloaded' folder are stored. Files elsewhere
are linked.
Previously you could use Zotero.DBConnection to open another database in
the data directory, but not one stored elsewhere in the filesystem. This
allows an absolute path to be passed instead. Various operations
(backups, corrupt DB recovery, pragma commands) are disabled for
external databases.
This previously returned false if a non-base-mapped field was passed,
even if the field was valid for the given item type. It now returns the
passed field as long as the field is valid for the type, which matches
the behavior for base fields.
1) text() wasn't handling the index property.
2) This removes the warning that attr()/text() no longer no require a
document as the first argument, because there's no reason to prevent
translators from being able to pass an element. It would require
rewriting various translators unnecessarily and make certain patterns
more verbose (because you'd need to match based on global scope in each
selector).
It won't be necessary to pass a Document once we remove 4.0 support and
the global attr()/text() are always available, so we can add a warning
for that then.
Fixeszotero/translators#1647
This is loosely based on the same functionality in ZotFile, but it tries
to do the right thing based on existing Zotero settings: either the new
PDF handler setting in the prefs or the system-default app. The latter
can only reliably be determined on Windows (and this uses ZotFile's
function to read that from the registry), but this tries to figure it
out on macOS and Linux too using the Mozilla handler service. (The
handler service only gets you an app name, not a path, so on Linux we
can try reading mimetypes.list and the like in case someone is using a
system-default okular or evince not in /usr/bin, but that's not yet
implemented.)
This uses the new 5.0 URL format, and a 'page' query parameter instead
of a path component:
zotero://open-pdf/library/items/[itemKey]?page=[page]
zotero://open-pdf/groups/[groupID]/items/[itemKey]?page=[page]
It also accepts ZotFile-style URLs, though, so if you uninstall ZotFile
you should still be able to open those links. ZotFile will need to
accept the new format for new links to work when ZotFile is installed,
since it will override this handler.
This functionality will be necessary for annotation extraction (#1018)
and for imported annotations from Mendeley (#1451).
Shows a prompt once per restart or once per day, whichever is longer,
with an option to not show again for a month. Can be disabled completely
by setting extensions.zotero.showConnectorVersionWarning to false.
Currently prompts for connector versions below 5.0.35.
This is a temporary solution for #1489 until the connector checks and
warns on its own when it's outdated and most people are on a version
that does that (particularly Safari users, who don't auto-upgrade).
The progress percentage is based on the most recent transaction
(or undeterminate if this is the first session transaction)
Fix undefined function call error
Local object versions can be higher than remote versions, because we
upload in batches and only record the version from the last batch.
This could cause trouble if an object failed to upload during a Restore
to Online Library, causing it to be retried later with version 0 (unlike
during a restore when the version is omitted), causing the library to be
reset, causing any local objects with higher local versions to be
redownloaded.
Set 'control' to the id of either the value label or the textbox,
depending on whether the field is being edited. This causes NVDA to read
the label associated with the textbox, but seemingly only the first time
it's selected.
Unfortunately NVDA also does some other unpleasant things, like reading
a description from the duplicate-merging pane, which isn't the active
element in the deck, and reading the entire text, including all field
labels, of the item box) I'm not sure how much we can improve this until
we're on Electron.
VoiceOver doesn't read the textbox's label either, even though it does
so in the bookmarks window in Firefox. Maybe things have improved since
Firefox 52, so we can text again after upgrading to Firefox 60.
Addresses #1411
Moving a translated item from a non-filesEditable library to a
filesEditable library would fail (because the endpoint handler was named
"SaveItem" instead of "SaveItems").
Fixeszotero/zotero-connectors#235
E.g., if you have a main profile using ~/Zotero and create a second
"Work" profile, a "~/Zotero Work" data directory will be created
automatically and set as a custom data directory
If you entered a date that was in DST (including the current date at
00:00:00) but you were in standard time, the previous day was displayed.
Since access dates for saved items include explicit timestamps and most
people don't work between the hours of midnight and 3 a.m., this didn't
come up very often, and it was easy to miss when it did, since you'd be
unlikely to notice it for previously entered dates. (Someone noticed it
today because DST ended in Australia.)
This only affected the item pane, so citations were unaffected.
If switching from a filesEditable library to a non-filesEditable
library, files are removed. If going the other direction (including if
the original save was to a non-filesEditable library), the save is
performed again from the beginning in order to include attachments. If
switching between two filesEditable libraries, the storage directory is
just moved.
Addresses zotero/zotero-connectors#220
Move an item and its attachments to another library. Attachments are
removed as necessary if linked files or all files aren't supported in
the target library.
The change in c5cd38b4a5 seems like it shouldn't have had any effect,
but creating an empty Set before yielding somehow avoided a race
condition with the subsequent updateSession call.
Ideally I guess the entry would be removed from the save popup in the
connector and a second button click would do a fresh save rather than
reopening the popup, but for now just avoid an error.
Addresses zotero/zotero-connectors#220
Items in the trash will still be updated properly (since they can still
exist in collections and have tags), but the collection selected in the
target selector should remain selected in the client.
Addresses zotero/zotero-connectors#220
If somebody switched accounts in a previous version, it was apparently
possible for related items to end up pointing at an item URI with the
old userID, which could cause a 403 on sync.

(5.0 deletes data when switching accounts to avoid exactly this sort of
bug.)
On some laptops, scaling settings might cause the DPI to drop between
96 (1x) and 144 (1.5x), and downscaled icons are probably better than
upscaled ones.
By prompting after 3 seconds we catch a lot of people who click through
the prompt without bothering to read or figure out what it does and then
come to the forums report the citing "bugs". An increased timeout will
catch less people and those who are caught are possibly more likely to
figure out how delayed citing updates work since they would greatly
benefit from it.
The old recognizer code only used CrossRef, and the new code copied
that, but I think the old code simply predated additional DOI
translators and was never updated.
- Add a File Handling section to the General pane of the preferences,
and move several prefs from Miscellaneous to there
- Add a UI to that section for choosing the PDF handler
- Update Zotero.launchFileWithApplication() to use /usr/bin/open on
macOS if the handler is an .app (which it will be if set through the
chooser, since it's limited to Mac applications, though an executable
can still be set via the hidden pref if desired for some reason)
- Move prefs for style/translator updates and translator error reporting
(which isn't particularly relevant anymore in the client) to Advanced
By default the PDF handler chooser says "System Default", which isn't
the nicest thing, and there's probably a way to get/guess the system
default, since Firefox seems to know it (at least on macOS), but I
couldn't quickly find a way to do it.

Various animated things (search spinner, progress meters) were using CPU
even when hidden, either because they weren't properly hidden
(equivalent of `display: none` rather than `visibility: hidden`) or
because of bizarre Firefox bugs with progress meters on Linux.
Addresses #1455
Configurable via extensions.zotero.fileHandler.pdf hidden pref for now,
though we'll probably make it a visible pref.
We also appear to have been doing blocking launches when launch()
failed, which may have been causing UI hangs when opening files on some
Linux installations. (I'm not sure if that's an issue with recent
Firefox builds. launch() works on Ubuntu 17.10.) All launches are now
async.
This is a rewritten version of PR #1450 by @ehhc.
Closes#1450
- Get rid of the hideous blue effect in the menubar and toolbar
- Slim down splitters
- Get rid of awful grippies except when collapsed (and make them
slightly less ugly in the collapsed state)
- Reduce spacing of tags in tag selector
- Tweak twisty spacing
- Get rid of stray line to the right of item pane tabs
We may still want to get rid of the menubar (#366), and we can do better
than the ugly gray backgrounds (#365), but this is a start.
I'm not sure if everything will look the same on all Windows versions,
so this will need a little testing.
Closes#367
When loading the first note of a session in the right-hand pane or when
loading a note in the separate window, if you made a change and then
pressed Undo twice (or maybe only once in some situations), it could
undo to empty (though you could usually Redo to restore it).
