Exporting bib file can successfully be useful and insert citation is ok, but once clicking "Connect and load libraries", it crashed. about citr HOT 4 OPEN

Can confirm this crash - is there a limit on the size of zotero libraries which can be read in this way?

from citr.

So,
I found I had three Group libraries with no records.
load_betterbiblatex_bib crashed on the first of these, so I removed that one
Then it crashed on the second so I removed the other two, so that every group library in my Zotero had records in it.
load_betterbiblatex_bib then worked, generating a large BibEntry object ( list of lists)..

Suggest you have a look and see if you have empty libraries?

I then tried the citr Shiny window, and I note that there is a settings button, which allows one to choose the Zotero libraries to be installed. In practice there seems to be no way to pull out a single Zotero collection.

This now works, but I note that it switches off after entering one reference. This won't work too well for large Zotero libraries, which can take a minute or two to load.

from citr.

suggest you investigate rbbt - may work better for the moment for both our use cases?

I had the same problem, it seems to have been solved by removing "abstract" and "notes" from the exported fields in zotero as described in the known problem section of the readme.

It goes in the direction of the library being too big to import
