NoteToDoc Python Script

This Python script generates a .docx file containing the bibliography and the notes taken in Zotero (previously exported in a .csv file), to ease the process of writing papers (e.g. surveys and reviews) and thesis.

How to use the script?

1. Before using the Python script, make sure you have the necessary packages already installed in your system by running:

   python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

2. After that, to properly run the script, export you bibliography elements from Zotero to a .CSV file

3. Clone this repository and just place your .csv file in the same folder. Execute the script using the command line:

   python notetodoc.py [name of your csv].csv

   or specifiying the name of the output file

   python notetodoc.py [name of your csv].csv [name for the output file].docx

And that's all! A .docx file will appear afterwards:

• [name you specified].docx or, if you did not specify a name for the output, notes.docx

Although the file is .docx, you can open it with LibreOffice Writer

Example

python notetodoc.py power_electronics.csv ACDC_notes.docx
