Source

You can check out TracZoteroPlugin from here using Subversion, or browse the source with Trac.

Installation

Install as follows:

  • Grab the source from SVN.
  • Build and install an egg from this source.

Configuration

  • The Zotero database (folder including zotero.sqlite) must be located in the htdocs directory of your Trac environment.
  • Add section '[zotero]' section in your trac.ini file, in which you set the path of the Zotero database:
    [zotero]
    path = Reference
    
    • if you have different database name other than 'zotero.sqlite', you can set 'dbname':
      [zotero]
      path = Reference
      dbname = zotero.sqlite
      
    • The columns to show items could be specified by 'fields' and 'labels':
      columns = firstCreator, year, publicationTitle, title
      
    • The links of attachments are rendered in two ways: http:// and zotero://. The default is http://. You can set 'attachmentlink' as 'local' to render attachment as zotero://:
      attachmentlink = local
      

Example

  • Cite a reference with key:
    [[ZotCite(TTQ685TT)]]
    
  • Cite multiple references with keys separated by comma ','. The keys can also start with '0_':
    [[ZotCite(TTQ685TT, GCSENNQ8, 0_CVJBVNCN)]]
    
  • You can add any other words except comma after keys to let them easier to look:
    [[ZotCite(CVJBVNCN(Marcellos&Single1975))]]
    
  • Add argument 'ait' or 'authorintext' to cite them as 'Author (year)':
    [[ZotCite(GCSENNQ8(Rebbecketal.2007),ait)]]
    
  • Show reference list:
    [[ZotRef]]
    
  • Show all related items:
    [[ZotRelated(5RUPZP36)]]
