README.md

zoterolens README

Zoterolens scans Markdown files for possible citationkeys and adds links open then with Zotero. Also a convenient option to immediately open the cited pdf-file.

I recommend using it in combination with an extension such as Citation Picker for Zotero, and/or Pandoc Citer to be able to easily add citations.

Features

CodeLens to open PDF's based on citekey
CodeLens to select item in Zotero based on citekey

It should find the page number following cases:

@test123
@test1.23
@test123 89
@test123, 89
[@test123, 89]
@test123 [89]
[@test123, p.89]
[@test123, pp.89-92]
[@test123, pp.89--92]

Requirements

Zotero
Zotero's Better-Bibtex plugin

Extension Settings

none.

Known Issues / Wishlist

It does not yet check if the citekey actually exists in Zotero, nor if it actually has any attachment.
- This should happen before showing the ref.
No error if Zotero isn't running, or the Better-Bibtex plugin is not configured.
Does not yet consider the page number of the citation when opening the pdf.
Zotero port cannot yet be configured.
explorer TreeView showing references.
Possibly use CodeAction instead of Lens: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/language-extensions/programmatic-language-features#possible-actions-on-errors-or-warnings
