Getting Zotero collection names for "smarter" bibliography #1534

The "Interlisp" level isn't a Collection, it is the Group, and the collections that I listed are below it; so there's no issue with that name. |
Let me propose the following top level collections:
Within each category, each citation should have:
We can catalog current documentation by pointing to the repository where the document or implementation is maintained. We can include sub-collections of other implementations as long as there is a plausible "why is this here". |
For a UI to access this, I imagine either checkboxes for each collection or a drop down? The default might be 1-4 or 1-5. You can tell apart genre: documentation year: . I would leave the display to be sorted by (topic-) year, but add the genre name. So Steve's volume 1 of Interlisp: The Language and it's Uses would have a year of 1986, genre book. There might be a pointer into the CHM PARC archives of genre "source code" and the date of the fugue release date. |
In your earlier post, by category do you mean Zotero collections? I'm not sure what the "Other" category refers to as it's not in the 5 listed collections. |
@pamoroso, I interpreted "category" to mean "collection", and "Other" as the collection 5 "Everything else" |
Yes, that was my idea, to put everything that doesn't fit into the first 4 collections in a collection "Everything Else". Richard Gabriel's book "Performance of Lisp Systems" would go in collection 3, "Discisses". At least my memory of what I've seen of the bibliography is that mostly what we have will fit into the first 4 collections. Outside of that, we should have a reason for inclusion. If there are many more than a dozen we can make subcollections under "Everything Else" -- but I think the casual viewer will be confused if we don't supply a reason why we are citing something that has little relation to the main topic of the site. |
OK, I just created a collection in Zotero: "Alternate Bibliography Hierarchy" with the 5 subcollections as above. (I numbered the subcollections, so they'd be in Larry's ordering.) We can add sub-subcollections as appropriate; or change the whole hierarchy if we want! |
For adding the "each citation should have" items we need to standardize our way of adding this metadata so it can be pulled apart for building the Bibliography web page. Also, I do not understand the assignment of colors to the collections... Why? |
There was a bit of concurrent discussion about this in the pull request: |
@ekaltman pls note |
Per the discussion in today's meeting, I did some digging around and experimenting and was able to get the Collection ID and name for each of the collection.
I was able manually to organize them into the correct hierarchical structure. (I may be able to get that structure from Zotero. TBD.)
I also verified that the JSON file used to generate the Bibliography web page, already includes the Collection IDs for every entry. (It's just that we don't do anything with that, currently.)
Here's the hierarchical set of collection names:
They should match what's in Zotero.
