The pdf itself is OK, I think -- this is the right PDF metadata after the add.

My papers is installed, and the config is:

KeyError: 'journal'
I can refile this as two issues, but am I calling "add" correctly? The behavior I expect is to have the PDF renamed and moved, and the entry added to the end of library.bib.
Hmm, your command looks correct. Which version of papers are you using? Lately I have been using the pr-perfect-undo branch, which I have wanted to merge into master for a while now. I have fixed a few bugs in that branch. Do you mind trying it and see if you still have the issue? Note there are also some tiny differences between "local" and "global" install. Can you try papers status -v ?
Regarding the file-formatting issue, not all fields are available. So far only author, title, year and ID, in various formatting options. Here an example:
{'author': 'oelsmann_passaro', 'Author': 'Oelsmann_Passaro', 'AUTHOR': 'OELSMANN_PASSARO', 'authorX': 'oelsmann_et_al', 'AuthorX': 'Oelsmann_et_al', 'year': '2021', 'title': 'the-zone-of-influence-matching-sea-level-variability-from-coastal-altimetry-and-tide-gauges-for', 'Title': 'The-Zone-Of-Influence-Matching-Sea-Level-Variability-From-Coastal-Altimetry-And-Tide-Gauges-For', 'ID': 'oelsmann_passaro2021'}
It would be better to have generic filters such as { key | filter1 | filter2 ...} such as { author | capitalize | '-'.join } but it needs a few hours to implement and test. Anyway, I could probably add the journal in a simple manner already, if that's something you'd find useful.
OK, super -- on your branch, this issue is no longer observed:
papers add 2013_AdvCIS_Modeling\ and\ simulation\ of\ electrostatically\ gated\ nanochannels.pdf

KeyError: 'journal'
I would indeed find "journal" useful, if it's not too much work; please let me know...
What might be a good way to go it to merge pr-perfect-undo if it's not too work-in-progress, and then I can get up to speed on that, as a whole.
@perrette By chance, does the config file change between pr-perfect-undo and 2.4?
I see:
(python) → pr-perfect-undo Repos/papers papers --version 11:01:20
WARNING:papers:Legacy config file found: /home/boyan/.local/share/config.json. Delete to remove this warning: rm -f '/home/boyan/.local/share/config.json'
2.5.dev25+geeb2892
This still does reproduce the error above when I remove the call to "journal" and just try the add:

Cheers!
It has been a while now, but it may change the default location in relation to local/global install (possibly it also does local by default, I can't remember now). This is a feature branch that grew up bigger than it should have. Should be merged and be done with it. Calling it version 3 I guess. Anyway to remove the warning why not follow the recommendation in the message and remove the config file that triggers the warning?
Oh, sorry -- yes, I was not sure of the downstream consequences on the install/not-install state there, since I'm still new to that bit...
Hey @perrette -- I'm reading through https://github.com/perrette/papers/tree/pr-perfect-undo (specifically papers/filename.py). Do I understand correctly that the available fields are defined solely there? If so, I can try to come back with a PR that adds the journal; do let me know...
Cheers!
Yes exactly. The fields are defined in make_template_fields. A PR should includes new user-defined arguments and ideally a few tests. Please go ahead, this might actually be a good one, as I think the underlying code as it is now is relatively clear (despite the caveats discussed earlier in this issue).
@perrette -- this is extending the conversation in https://github.com/perrette/papers/pull/65
I looked at this, and can confirm the behavior in https://github.com/perrette/papers/tree/pr-perfect-undo I saw:
-- when running papers add thing.pdf (or combinations like papers add ../../thing.pdf)
-- if checking the bibtex yields a duplicate AND that duplicate has a file attribute:
-- then the duplicates' file attribute (even if malformed or wrong or moved) will be used as the merge, which triggers the above bug.
In my case, I had the Pardon2013 paper in my database, with file = {::}, which then pointed papers to the /home/boyan/Vazhno/Work/Literature directory which contains all my PDFs.
So, question -- how corner-case'y is this corner-case?
I don't know how up-to-date that issue is. Can you double-check and close if necessary? The latest branch is master.
