The main url for any publication is :ref:citekey, for example :ref:scardamalia2006knowledge. This displays the page above. However, if you click on edit, you will find a very minimal page. This is because I use the include plugin to include pages from other namespaces: text/html 2011-06-22T04:12:22-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:citekeys?rev=1308733942&do=diff (about researchr) The concept of citekeys is really key to researchr, it's the glue that binds all the different applications together. A citekey is a unique key for each publication. These can be generated automatically by BibDesk, and I've chosen to use the formula last name of first author + year + first word of title (more than three letters), so for example the citation: text/html 2011-09-17T14:28:01-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:configuring_apache?rev=1316287681&do=diff I run Dokuwiki through the built-in Apache in OSX Lion (turned on by clicking Web Sharing in the Control Panel). This works well (after configuring PHP and CGI), but I am unhappy about how long it takes Apache to “wake up” in OSX Lion. I am thinking of using some php accelerator, or even completely changing the server, but haven't gotten that far. text/html 2011-06-22T04:17:23-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:description_of_all_files?rev=1308734243&do=diff (about researchr) All files can be downloaded from github. Because I constantly change the files to suit my own workflow and experiments, and because this has grown quite organic, rather than being planned, it's a bit of a mishmash. This is an attempt at documenting which files do what, and show how it all “hangs together”. text/html 2011-06-25T17:58:34-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:design_patterns?rev=1309042714&do=diff (about researchr) The development of this project was very gradual and iterative, and I added functionality either because I really needed it, or because I had a neat idea and wanted to see if it was possible. During this time, I came across a few “neat ways” of doing things, which I reused a few times. <x-bdsk://commons2011power> See details of all the files in the repository, and links to the source, at description of all files, and examples of appscript strings. text/html 2011-12-04T22:28:28-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:dokuwiki_plugins?rev=1323059308&do=diff (about researchr) There is a huge selection of plugins for DokuWiki, and I've played with many of them. Here is an automatic list of all the ones I have currently installed. Below I'll mention in a bit more detail some of the most important ones for this project. text/html 2012-02-11T00:48:24-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:ideas?rev=1328942904&do=diff * Ruby_gntp (growl notifier) * RobertLowe/mynu - GitHub - menubar DSL text/html 2011-06-22T04:11:38-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:index?rev=1308733898&do=diff text/html 2011-06-22T04:12:48-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:keyboard_shortcuts?rev=1308733968&do=diff (about researchr) Using keyboard shortcuts are really important for productivity. There are a number of apps for Mac that let you design your own keyboard shortcuts and macros, some are free. I tried a few, and ended up with Keyboard Maestro, which is not free, but to me well worth the money. It's easy to use, and it's also very easy to restrict keyboard shortcuts to specific applications. I have used this to get more consistency, for example opens the current publication in DokuWiki both Bi… text/html 2011-06-22T04:10:26-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:screenshots?rev=1308733826&do=diff About researchr BibDesk Managing citation information in BibDesk Skim Highlighting text and adding notes to a PDF Wiki All pages Bibliography listing Full bibliography Publication list for keyword "scripting" List of publications by author text/html 2011-09-23T15:01:23-05:00 http://www.reganmian.net/wiki/researchr:start?rev=1316808083&do=diff Introduction I've been really interested in how I can better manage all my PDFs, citation metadata, clippings, notes and ideas, etc. This becomes even more relevant now that I have entered a PhD program, and presumably am collecting articles and ideas not just for my PhD, but for many years as a researcher.
