Add template variables

[hans]

• [x] journal / book name (container-title in CSL I think)
• [x] link to Zotero item
• [ ] link to PDF
• [ ] current date
• [ ] short title

I am currently using the zotero-mdnotes plugins and use the following variables, which I hope your plugin could support in the future:

• Zotero Cloud Link
• Authors as link [[Firstname Lastname]], [[Firstname1, Lastname2]]

Maybe for some date the Zotero database needs to be queried. Zothero, an Alfred plugin, does this. https://github.com/deanishe/zothero/blob/5b057ef080ee730d82d5dd15e064d2a4730c2b11/src/lib/zothero/zotero.py

@mikebarkmin you could use the following handlebar statement in your template to get authors pre-rendered as links:

{{#each entry.author}}
[[{{given}} {{family}}]]
{{/each}}

+1 request for current date. I don't know TS at all, but looking at the code I could probably implement this, if you accept pull requests.

I got stuck trying to implement this (I have nearly 0 Node knowledge) Cloning the the master branch into my .obsidian/plugins, doing npm -i and then npm dev run I kept hitting this, even with nothing modified.

app.js:1 TypeError: Cannot read property 'entries' of undefined

Being able to add the current date to the template would be great!
