## Citation workflow
|
|
Add papers to Zotero from web using 'connectors' that parse metadata from journal websites.
|
|
Export either you entire collection or a subcollection with "automatic export" ticked
|
|
|
|
## [Set up automatic git push](https://retorque.re/zotero-better-bibtex/exporting/auto/)
|
|
In a word, run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git config zotero.betterbibtex.push true #in the repo that holds your overleaf project
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## When the citations are finalised
|
|
When the paper is done and the citations aren't going to change too much, use overleaf see logs feature to see the aux file.
|
|
Import the aux into a subcollection to get only the citations used for this paper.
|
|
Then export the subcollection again using "Keep updated"
|
|
No you'll have a bib file with only the citations actually used.
|
|
|
|
Overleaf Workflow
|
|
---
|
|
Sync with Github whenever you'd updated the figures or citations. For some projects I now use the [Overleaf git-bridge](git-bridge) directly because it doesn't require you to manually sync with GitHub.
|
|
|
|
Submitting to arXiv
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Use the overleaf exporter to get the necessary .bbl file
|
|
|
|
Submitting to somewhere else:
|
|
---
|
|
APS Journals require you to paste or input the .bbl file into the text [paste][paste], replace you command with \include{main.bbl}
