Development Guide

Before starting development, you need to create a GitHub personal access token and store it in the local environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/northword/zotero-plugins.git zotero-plugins
cd zotero-plugins

# Install dependencies
npm install -g pnpm
pnpm install

# Fetch plugin information
pnpm data:info

# Fetch chart information
pnpm data:chart

src/index.ts is the main logic script, which performs the following actions:

• Iterates through the plugin information list, fetches basic information and releases for each plugin from GitHub, and saves the obtained information in dist/plugins.json
• Saves the XPI packages in dist/xpi/${github.release.asset.id}.xpi

The GitHub Action Bot periodically runs the src/index.ts script, performs the above steps, and deploys the dist/ to the gh-page branch.

Note

How to use this project as a dependency for secondary development?

Developers can use the dist files like dist/plugins.json from the gh-pages branch.
