[Share] Attachment Title Sync

[thalient-ai]

Description

In Zotero, attachments have both a filename and a title.

This script simply changes the attachment title to match the filename.

The script can be executed on one or many and works when either the parent item or child attachment is selected.

const Zotero = require("Zotero");

// Function to process renaming of each attachment
async function processRenaming(attachment, processedAttachmentIds) {
    if (!attachment || processedAttachmentIds.has(attachment.id)) {
        // Skip processing if attachment is undefined or already processed
        return { renamed: 0, errors: 0 };
    }

    if (attachment.attachmentLinkMode === Zotero.Attachments.LINK_MODE_LINKED_URL) {
        Zotero.logError(`Cannot rename linked URL attachment ${attachment.id}.`);
        return { renamed: 0, errors: 1 };
    }

    const currentPath = await attachment.getFilePathAsync();
    if (!currentPath) {
        Zotero.logError(`No local file path available for attachment ${attachment.id}.`);
        return { renamed: 0, errors: 1 };
    }

    const currentName = currentPath.split(/(\\|\/)/g).pop();

    try {
        attachment.setField('title', currentName);
        await attachment.saveTx();
        processedAttachmentIds.add(attachment.id);
        return { renamed: 1, errors: 0 };
    } catch (error) {
        Zotero.logError(`Error updating title for attachment ${attachment.id}: ${error}`);
        return { renamed: 0, errors: 1 };
    }
}

// Main execution block
(async () => {
    if (!items && !item) {
        Zotero.alert(null, "Update Attachment Titles", "[Update Attachment Titles] No item or items array provided.");
        return;
    }

    let targetItems = items || (item ? [item] : []);
    let totalUpdated = 0;
    let totalErrors = 0;
    let processedAttachmentIds = new Set();

    for (const currentItem of targetItems) {
        const attachments = currentItem.itemType === 'attachment' ? [currentItem] : await Zotero.Items.getAsync(currentItem.getAttachments());
        for (const attachment of attachments) {
            const result = await processRenaming(attachment, processedAttachmentIds);
            totalUpdated += result.renamed;
            totalErrors += result.errors;
        }
    }

    // Display a summary alert only if there are significant outcomes to report
    if (totalUpdated > 0 || totalErrors > 0) {
        Zotero.alert(null, "Update Attachment Titles", `[Update Attachment Titles] Successfully updated titles for ${totalUpdated} attachments. Errors: ${totalErrors}`);
    }
})();

Anything else

This script is different than my Attachment Title Rename script in that it only updates the attachment title based on the filename.

非常有用，请问如何将附件名更改为翻译后的标题呐？
Very useful. May I ask how to change the attachment name to the translated title?
