Zotero Utilities

Zotero utility code common across various codebases such as the Zotero client, Zotero translation architecture and others.

Item utility functions require:

Calling Zotero.Schema.init(json) with the JSON from schema.json from Zotero schema repo
Calling Zotero.Date.init(json) with the JSON from resource/dateFormats.json

Loading resource/zoteroTypeSchemaData.js before cachedTypes.js or in Node.js running

  let CachedTypes = require('./cachedTypes')
  CachedTypes.setTypeSchema(require('./resource/zoteroTypeSchemaData'))

Implementing Zotero.localeCompare(); a simple implementation would be

  let collator = new Intl.Collator(['en-US'], {
    numeric: true,
    sensitivity: 'base'
  });
  Zotero.localeCompare = (a, b) => collator.compare(a, b);

Please bundle the Zotero schema file with your repository, do not load it remotely.

To run tests: npm i && npm test.
