A submitted database had a text userID with a trailing "A0. Not sure how
that happened -- it doesn't appear to be possible in current code -- but
it caused group permissions not to be properly synced.
- Add the ability to extract a PDF URL from a given webpage using the
translation framework
- Add the ability to get open-access PDFs from landing pages from
Unpaywall data in addition to direct PDF URLs
- Use the above functionality to improve PDF retrieval for "Add Item by
Identifier"
- Add "Find Available PDFs" option to the item context menu to retrieve
PDFs for existing items from the DOI or URL page or using Unpaywall
data. The option appears for single items with a DOI or URL and no PDF,
and it always appears when selecting multiple top-level items (but
skips ineligible items).
PDF extraction from DOI/URL pages will currently only work with
unauthenticated access (i.e., on-campus or VPN, but not via a web-based
proxy).
Supersedes and closes#948
Add Z.DataDirectory.getSubdirectory which, optionally, creates
the directory.
Add async Z.DataDirectory.removeSubdirectory and use it for
Z.removeTempDirectory (was sync call before!).
Move `Zotero.getString()` and intl init code to `Zotero.intl` to make
it easier to re-use.
Link `Zotero.getString()` to `Zotero.intl.getString()`.
Do not expose `getStringFromBundle`, `pluralFormGet`, and
`pluralFormNumForms` because they are not used.
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.
