Is there any chance to recover extension?

[metya]

I don't understand why mendeley is hadn't develop google doc extension their-self, but it's good to know, that someone did it for them.
But bad to know that it's not working at all cause there isn't extension in google docs store.

Is there any chance that it will be shipped to store again?

Thing is I'm not a javascript developer and don't have time to keep this going at the moment. Turns out the detail is quite complicated.

It is possible to fork it or download it and get it running in a doc if you are so minded but I would strongly recommend using another reference manager. I believe zotero also now has google docs integration.

Zotero have docs integration, and zotero open source and free that's cool, but zotero's importer is so bad and doesn't recognize so many papers. Mendeley do it much better, plus have annotation instruments.

Ok, I just try download and build it myself. Thanks.

Maybe you may provide instruction how to build it and load to docs as extension?)

Do this:
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/bound

Check out your bound script with this:
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/clasp

Download a zip of this project and unzip it over the clasp project
use clasp to push it back.

N.b. you could just copy and paste all the files from here into apps script developer console if you find that easier.

Follow the instructions here to get a mendeley api key and store that as a script parameter.

It will almost certainly need debugging to get to work.
Like I say, not sure what I was doing with it. It all seems quite involved and fragile.
