I've been away from any open source work for a while. I also have had issues with my Github account for a while. However!, I know a lot of people like this plugin and have posted a lot of ideas/errors in the issues.

If you have a specific issue that is important to you please add any kind of "reaction" to the first comment in that issue and/or a comment of your own(if you have something important to add). If I notice that an issue has a lot of activity, then I will try to prioritize that work first.

As well, if you are a Twitter user. Feel free to follow me. My private messages are always open if you want to contact me for whatever reason.

Thanks everyone for all the interest and nice comments over the years :)

This is an add-on for Zotero and Juris-M that enables automatic download of PDFs for items with a DOI.

• Download the latest release (.xpi file) from the Releases Page Note If you're using Firefox as your browser, right click the xpi and select "Save As.."
• In Zotero click "Tools" in the top menu bar and then click "Addons"
• Go to the Extensions page and then click the gear icon in the top right.
• Select Install Add-on from file.
• Browse to where you downloaded the .xpi file and select it.
• Restart Zotero, by clicking "restart now" in the extensions list where the scihub plugin is now listed.

Once you have the plugin installed simply, right click any item in your collections. There will now be a new context menu option titled "Update Scihub PDF." Once you click this, a PDF of the file will be downloaded from Scihub and attached to your item in Zotero.

For any new papers you add after this plugin is installed, the scihub pdf will be automatically downloaded.

Plugin is configured through the dedicated tab:

In case of malfunctioning or unsafe local DNS server, Zotero (as it's built on Firefox) might be configured with Trusted Recursive Resolver or DNS-over-HTTPS, where you could set your own DNS server just for Zotero without modifying network settings.

Preferences > Advanced > Config Editor

1. set network.trr.mode to 2 or 3, this enables DNS-over-HTTPS (2 enables it with fallback)
2. set network.trr.uri to https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query, this is the provider’s URL
3. set network.trr.bootstrapAddress to 1.1.1.1, this is cloudflare’s normal DNS server (only) used to retrieve the IP of cloudfaire-dns.com
4. Restart zotero, wait for a DNS cache to clean up.

0. Pre-requisite is to have node.js installed
1. Install dependencies npm install
2. Build npm run build
