michaa7 created an issue (geany/geany-plugins#1592) Hi
I use geany for almost all pure text related files like txt, md, sh or py. While working on a quite big document I use zotero for my content management. I do not want do directly use an office suite (LO) at this stage but the text editor I am accustomed to. Which is geany. Unfortunaltely there is currently no way for geany to handle zotero citations which limits Geany's usefulness for Zotero-based writing workflows. Among lightweight, general-purpose Linux text editors, practical Zotero integration is still uncommon. While Emacs offers mature citation plugins, and Vim/Neovim also have options, they require workflows that many non-expert users (like me) find difficult to adopt. Geany already provides a rich plugin ecosystem, so adding Zotero support would be a significant usability improvement for users who prefer a lightweight, conventional editor over Emacs or Vim. Existing implementations, such as Zettlr's Zotero support, might provide useful ideas for citation lookup, insertion workflows and user interaction, even though Geany would require its own implementation. What I currently miss is a convenient way to continue writing in Geany (for such projects primarily Markdown-based. Plain text files would work equally well.) without having to repeatedly switch between applications just to insert or look up citations in Zotero. Possible functionality could include: browsing or searching the Zotero library, inserting citations or citation keys into the current document, opening linked PDFs or other attachments, optionally supporting Better BibTeX where appropriate. I am available for any further questions and I would be happy to test early versions and provide feedback if someone decides to implement such a plugin.
