# Zotodo

Add Todoist tasks for papers in Zotero. Install by downloading the [latest version](https://github.com/wbthomason/zotodo/releases/latest).

Scaffolded with the wonderful

[`generator-zotero-plugin`](https://github.com/retorquere/generator-zotero-plugin).

## Features

- Automatically generate Todoist tasks when new papers are imported

- Generate Todoist tasks for existing papers

- Templating of task and optional task comment, including paper information (authors, title,

  abstract, etc.)

- Customizable project, section, and due date settings

- Customizable labels for tasks

- Generate Zotero select links

- Generate Zotero PDF opening links

## Installation

1. Download the [latest version](https://github.com/wbthomason/zotodo/releases/latest) of the `.xpi`.

2. In Zotero, go to Tools > Add-ons.

3. Click the  gear icon in the upper right corner, and select "Install Add-On From File".

4. Navigate to where you downloaded the Zotodo `.xpi` and select it.

## Configuration

- See "Zotodo Preferences" in the "Tools" menu.

## Notes

- You **must** set your Todoist API key in the preferences for this plugin to work. OAuth might be

  implemented eventually, but it's not there right now.

- For select links to work, you may need to set up handling of the `zotero://` protocol on your

  computer.

## TODO/Future features

- [x] Create project/labels if nonexistent

- [ ] OAuth flow for getting authorization key

- [ ] Set project by Zotero collection

- [x] Add more template tokens

- [ ] Switch to official Todoist API client
