Hi folks,

I just installed Zotero (a Firefox plugin for organizing your research
sources) and I thought it could be used with Org-mode. For example, I'd
like to send BibTeX entries from Zotero to Org-mode via Fireforg.

At http://orgmode.org/worg/org-devel.html I can see that Fireforg is
listed, but it seems outdated - when I try to install fireforg.xpi in
Abrowser 18 (Firefox-based browser), it reports the following:

Fireforg could not be installed because it is not compatible with
Abrowser 18.0.1.

I'm not sure if simply changing the "max version" parameter in
install.rdf in fireforg.xpi is the best idea.


According to the git log, the last commit dates back to 2010. I guess
it's not in active development anymore.

Also, I guess it needs org-protocol, but I can't figure out where to
download it from. At:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.html

it doesn't say anything about how to obtain it.


Any suggestions on how to get org-protocol and fireforg working so that
I can export BibTeX entries from Zotero to org-mode?


If it's of any help, I have GNU Emacs 23.3.1 and Org-mode 7.6.


Cheers,
Marko Dimjašević

Maybe -- can you try and tell?

Indeed.

org-protocol.el is part of Org's core.

Please update to a more recent version of Org:
http://orgmode.org

Hopefully this will help in making FireOrg usable to you.

Best,

Hello,

FWIW, I am using zotelo¹ with org, which works pretty well. (and installation
should be easy.)

For eg, my setup includes placing local variables in my org document as
following,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# Local Variables:
# eval: (zotelo-minor-mode 1)
# zotero-collection: #("0" 0 1 (name "*MyPaper*"))
# End:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

where MyPaper is a directory in zotero database (or ALL if you want all the
references).

Now in emacs I just call zotelo-update-database, to get my bibliography
updated in the specified bib file.

Thanks.,

I can change it to 18.0.1, and even though it installs, it reads "Error"
in the add-on/status bar. I just guess it's due to the Org-mode version
(7.6) and hopefully it works in newer versions.

Do you maybe know since what version?


Cheers,
Marko

Crossing fingers, then.
