Linking to Zotero items: pb with the id field #30
Description
Hello,
Thank you very much for developing this nice extension!
I use the last version of Zotero with the last version of OSX.
I meet a problem with BetterbibteX and Zotxt.
I use Hook for connecting different information together and it has now a module for linking with Zotero items, that is very useful for me (I am a researcher). This connection uses zotxt that I have already installed.
It reads the information about the selected item in Zotero through the following curl command:
"curl -s -d selected=t&format=json -G http://127.0.0.1:23119/zotxt/items"
and then builds a zotero:// link using the id it reads from this record
When Better BibTeX is activated, I get as the id the citekey of the article, like
zotero://select/library/items/harmsen2015
and the the zotero link cannot point to the specific article when I click it.
If I deactivate BBTX, the correct id (the same as the name of the subfolder in the Zotero storage folder) is obtained and the link points to the specific file:
zotero://select/library/items/DCEXAPF4
BBTX developer suggested me to contact you: "I don't generate or modify this url, that's zotxt's work. Zotxt likely detects the presence of BBT and reacts to that, but I don't know how it reacts to BBT and whether it's configurable; you'll have to ask the Zotxt developer."
I have not been able to find any option for Zotxt. Do you think that we could solve this problem?
Thank you for your attention.
Very cordially,
Murat
