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.
The progress percentage is based on the most recent transaction
(or undeterminate if this is the first session transaction)
Fix undefined function call error
A XUL one for the current use in Advanced Search and an HTML one for
future uses. Sets the value to libraryID and adds data attributes for
editable/filesEditable on the HTML one.
- Move identifier detection to `Zotero.Utilities.Internal.extractIdentifiers()`
so that it can be used for things other than Add Item by Identifier
(e.g., translation-server)
- Add a `Zotero.Translate.Search::setIdentifier()` function that takes an
identifier object produced by `extractIdentifiers()` (`{ DOI: "10/..." }`),
converts that to the search format expected by translators, and calls setSearch()
We should maybe have a shorter timeout in the connector to show an error
and avoid showing the save-to-server dialog, but let's err on the side
of not cancelling saves.
Otherwise a save could go on forever and the connector will never show
an error, and if you quit Zotero the connector will show the
save-to-server dialog (though the connector should have its own
timeout).
Immediate sync triggering on remote library change using WebSocket API.
Currently kicks off a normal sync process for the modified library --
actual object data isn't pushed.
(This might not stay enabled for 5.0 Final.)
- Move openPreferences() to Zotero.Utilities.Internal
- Add support for opening windows when there's no active browser window
- Allow selecting prefpane tab by id via 'tab' property
- openPreferences() now takes an object as its second argument with a
'tab', 'tabIndex', or 'action' property
Previously they only showed for My Library by default, which I suspect
meant that most people didn't know you could get them for other
libraries...
This hides "Duplicate Items" and "Unfiled Items" from the context menu
when they're active, which may or may not be desirable (but we don't
show, say, "Trash" in the context menu).
Also tweaks selection behavior after hide to select next appropriate row
instead of the parent library.
itemToCSLJSON() doesn't seem to need child items, so when a Zotero.Item
is passed to it, don't bother loading child items when calling
itemToExportFormat() to convert the item into the necessary format.
WPD code hasn't been updated in many years, and there was an issue with
document permissions in 5.0. We'll need to replace nsIWBP in Electron,
but this will do for now.
Attachments are opened using file:// URIs instead of
zotero://attachment, which is what Standalone does anyway. Ancient HTML
annotations and highlights won't be displayed anymore, but I'm not sure
they worked anyway, and it hasn't been possible to create them in years.
We might be able to write out existing annotations to notes.
iframes are skipped during saving, in an attempt to reduce the number of
junk ad files. JS can still cause problems with viewing, so we might
still want to either disable scripts or force the viewed page offline
(if such a thing is possible).
There might be issues with auxiliary filename length/characters during
cross-platform file syncing. (We modified the WPD code to shorten/clean
them.)
Instead of requiring a click on the menuitem at the top of the submenu, allow
a click on the menu itself.
This is a hack that, among other things, replicates the flash effect on
menuitems on OS X. Unfortunately, <menu> elements can't have checkboxes, so
only the menuitem in the submenu will be checked. (Otherwise I'd remove the
redundant menuitem in the submenu.)
- Fix persistence of last translation target
- Add checkbox to menuitem of selected target
- Remove unnecessary flex attributes
Also:
- Move collectionTreeView row id (e.g., "L1", "C123") and image
generation to Zotero.Library and Zotero.Collection properaties,
.collectionTreeViewID and .collectionTreeViewImage -- currently used
only for the feed add-to button, but could be expanded for use in
collectionTreeView
While trying to get translation and citing working with asynchronously
generated data, we realized that drag-and-drop support was going to
be...problematic. Firefox only supports synchronous methods for
providing drag data (unlike, it seems, the DataTransferItem interface
supported by Chrome), which means that we'd need to preload all relevant
data on item selection (bounded by export.quickCopy.dragLimit) and keep
the translate/cite methods synchronous (or maintain two separate
versions).
What we're trying instead is doing what I said in #518 we weren't going
to do: loading most object data on startup and leaving many more
functions synchronous. Essentially, this takes the various load*()
methods described in #518, moves them to startup, and makes them operate
on entire libraries rather than individual objects.
The obvious downside here (other than undoing much of the work of the
last many months) is that it increases startup time, potentially quite a
lot for larger libraries. On my laptop, with a 3,000-item library, this
adds about 3 seconds to startup time. I haven't yet tested with larger
libraries. But I'm hoping that we can optimize this further to reduce
that delay. Among other things, this is loading data for all libraries,
when it should be able to load data only for the library being viewed.
But this is also fundamentally just doing some SELECT queries and
storing the results, so it really shouldn't need to be that slow (though
performance may be bounded a bit here by XPCOM overhead).
If we can make this fast enough, it means that third-party plugins
should be able to remain much closer to their current designs. (Some
things, including saving, will still need to be made asynchronous.)
Unfortunately this will need to be partly redone, since retrieveItem(), and
therefore itemToCSLJSON(), and therefore itemToExportFormat(), need to be
synchronous. The item data load statements in itemToExportFormat() will
probably need to be performed earlier, when they can be async, and made
available to the session for retrieval by retrieveItem(), but I'll let someone
more familiar with the citation infrastructure do that.
This restores some code in retrieveItem() that may have been accidentally
removed in a merge, though it probably won't be useful anymore anyway.
