I'll explain how to use the script step by step:

1. First, export your Zotero data:

   • Open Zotero
   • Right-click on a collection or your entire library
   • Select "Export Collection..."
   • Choose "JSON" as the format
   • Save the file (e.g., as zotero_export.json)

2. Save the Ruby script:

   # Create a new file
   touch zotero_to_wikijs.rb
   

   Then copy the code from the artifact above into zotero_to_wikijs.rb

3. Make sure you have Ruby installed:

   ruby --version
   

   If not installed, you can get it from ruby-lang.org or use your system's package manager

4. Run the script:

   # Basic usage
   ruby zotero_to_wikijs.rb path/to/zotero_export.json
   

   The script will:

   • Create a wiki_output directory
   • Generate a bibliography.md file inside it
   • Show progress in the terminal

5. For custom settings, you can modify these lines at the top of the script:

   DEFAULT_CONFIG = {
     date_format: '%Y-%m-%d',
     entry_separator: "\n\n---\n\n",
     output_dir: 'wiki_output',
     output_file: 'bibliography.md'
   }
   

The generated Markdown file will be compatible with WikiJS and include:

• Properly formatted citations
• Author information
• Publication dates
• DOIs/ISBNs when available
• Notes from Zotero
• Tags from Zotero
