• Discussion on org.jabref.preferences.PreferencesService
  • https://devdocs.jabref.org/getting-into-the-code/high-level-documentation
  • Discussion on granularity. Shuld the PreferenceService the "huge" DTO or should we use the stripped down "small" preference things (such as org.jabref.logic.importer.ImportFormatPreferences)
  • Long run: integrate org.jabref.preferences into org.jabref.logic
  • Discussion on keyword seperator --> maybe introcude FetcherPreferences object -- same setting; stored once, but preference service puts it into FetcherPreferences, ImportFormatPreferences, CLS...Preferences. We accept that alias issues could occur.
  • Preference classes should follow the use case
  • For each logic package: one preference class (collecting the features of the package) - even if not all citizens of the package use all preference, but that helps to reduce the number of preference objects passed --> this avoids the "pseudo-global" "variable"
  • Discussion on using JavaFX observables at the preferences (to avoid JabRef restart on preferences changes)

    • maven central - see https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/110
• Discussion on SLR
  • Proposal use Microsoft Academic only (because they are very complete and can do snowballing easily)
  • Re-Implement SLR in JabRef online (TypeScript)
  • Idea: JabRef SLR (server-side; command-line; cron-job) -> .bib -> JabRef online (same server) -> GraphQL API for external access

Thinking of Alternatives to File Writing

Decision drivers

• check whether file is written correctly
• after power outage: recognize that something was wrong during writing

Alternative 1:

ren a.bib a.tmp # renaming keeps the hard links copy a.tmp a.bib # placeholder if something goes wrong --> a.bib is always there write to a.tmp # ren a.tmp a.bib # renaming keeps the hard links

• Good, because hard links are kept
• Bad, because issues with dropbox could arise
• Bad, because issues with OneDrive surely arise

Alternative 2:

copy a.bib to a.bak write to a.bib # assumption: throws error if something goes wrong del a.bak (after successful write)

if something goes wrong at writing: copy a.bak to a.bib

• Good, because easy to implement
• Good, because in the case of writing errors, users can restore the bib from a.bak (JabRef warns at startup)
• Bad, because data will be lost in case of power outages

Alternative 3:

(Current solution)

write to a.tmp copy a.bib to a.bak move a.tmp to a.bib del a.bak

Downside: adding dependency to IntelliJ annotations... --> https://github.com/soc/annotation and https://github.com/google/guava/issues/2960
