Break up series sync in Zotero to divide Series by their series category membership on the ESOVDB #33

@avanavana

Description

@avanavana

This will involve:

  • Create Zotero collections for all high level series categories in Zotero
  • Map all high level series categories in the ESOVDB to their new collection in Zotero by Zotero Key
  • Write Zotero JS script that loops through all series collections and places them in the correct parent collection. May have to use an external JSON file for the missing parent-child relationship information
  • Amend all series code to also add the parent collection when syncing to Zotero, such that any video that is in a series subcollection is also in its parent.

*Note: the series categories will probably not be changing much, so I won't write any code there for CRUD of that type of information.

I may consider writing code to handle changing a series' category parent, because it might be the case often that when creating a new series I (or someone else in the future) forgets to assign the parent category, and later a bunch of series need to be moved out of "Uncategorized" series into their Zotero parent...we will see*
