Browser standalone zotero translator

Zotero Translate

This repository contains the Zotero translation architecture code responsible for parsing Zotero translators and running them on live and static web pages to retrieve Zotero items.

A consumer of this repository needs to implement the following interfaces:

• Zotero.Translators found in translators.js
• Zotero.HTTP found in http.js
• Zotero.Translate.ItemSaver found in translation/translate_item.js

You also need to:

• Call Zotero.Schema.init(data) with Zotero schema.json.
• If running in a ModuleJS environment (e.g. Node.js) call require('./cachedTypes').setTypeSchema(typeSchema) with the result of resource/zoteroTypeSchemaData.js.

Please bundle translators and Zotero schema with the translation architecture. Do not load them from a remote server.

You may also want to reimplement or modify:

• Zotero.Repo found in repo.js to set up periodic translator update retrieval
• Zotero.Debug found in debug.js to customize debug logging
• Zotero and Zotero.Prefs found in zotero.js to set up the environment and long-term preference storage
• Zotero.Translate.ItemGetter found in translation/translate_item.js for export translation
• Zotero.Translate.SandboxManager found in translation/sandboxManager.js for a tighter Sandbox environment if available on your the platform
