Would be nice to have a determinate progress meter on Windows, but that
will require enumerating all files, which maybe would just make things
slower. Might be safer, though, by discouraging people from
force-quitting.
This adds a new button to the Advanced prefs to migrate the data directory to
$HOME/Zotero. The button only appears if the data directory is set to the
default location within a profile directory (including the other program from
the one running, even though that's technically stored as a custom data
directory).
On Mac/Linux, directories within the data directory are moved with /bin/mv. On
Windows, or if that fails, they're copied recursively using OS.File.move()
(which annoyingly doesn't reliably support directory moving). The former should
be instantaneous on most systems (unless the data directory or 'storage' were
on a different filesystem from $HOME).
If the database fails to transfer, migration fails and the data directory
setting remains on the old directory. If the database transfers but other files
fail, the data directory setting is updated. In both cases, the user is
encouraged to migrate remaining files manually with a button that reveals the
directories and quits the program.
This isn't yet tested on Linux or Windows, and migration isn't yet suggested
automatically.
Adds Zotero.File.reveal(), Zotero.File.directoryIsEmpty(), and
Zotero.File.moveDirectory().
- Use $HOME/Zotero if zotero.sqlite exists, and set it as a custom data
directory so that 4.0 uses it if loaded (resulting in a
newer-db-version error instead of an empty database)
- Don't prompt whether to use data directory from the other version's
profile directory (i.e., Firefox or Standalone) -- just do it
This could be extended to address #118/#145, but for now it makes some of the
more common search conditions (Creator, Collection, etc.) more prominent.
Clicking it cancels the current window, opens the Cite pane of the
prefs, and selects the Styles tab. (This will be more useful once we
have inline style installation from that pane.)
On reset, items are overwritten with pristine versions if available and deleted
otherwise, and then the library is marked for a full sync. Unsynced/changed
files are deleted and marked for download.
Closes#1002
Todo:
- Handle API key access change (#953, in part)
- Handle 403 from data/file upload for existing users (#1041)
This is necessary because you can copy a database synced with a
different account into the data directory without affecting the stored
pref.
Also tweak the text to use proper quotes and remove quaint references to
"the server".
- Only show first pane (without Sharing pane) if no files or files
aren't included
- Update authorship checkbox to reflect file include setting to avoid
confusion
- Clarify in intro text that license applies to files, not notes --
notes here are no different than notes in any public library, so it's
sort of up to the user to clarify those if they're substantial enough
for it to matter
- Adjust alignment of authorship checkbox if more than one line
