elisp wrappers for querying against zotero.sqlite

goal is to provide convenience functions / keys to query the zotero db + open files, without having to have a running zotero instance

current functionality

still in progress

• M-x zotero-query to search against db; launches a hydra menu for further action
• zotero:doi:10.9999/example style or zotero:Some Title Text org-mode links (export formatter is not yet implemented)
  • C-c C-c in org-mode on a zotero: link triggers the query action
• insert org-pdfview link or other information from result selection
• M-x pdf-annot-trigger on pdfview link
  • insert text extraction of annotations in pdf
  • select specific text annotation from helm menu + insert
• interaction with pdf-tools to load annotations from zotero link

dependencies

• sql.el (Emacs included, in progmodes)
• helm
• dash
• esqlite
• abo-abo’s hydra
• s
