Bulk post

[Martin Becker]

Hi,

When I do related work I open lots of tags with publications which I then add one by one to BibSonomy. It would be great if the browser-plugin supported bulk posting all open tabs.

Best, Martin

We need to talk about having a bulk uploading feature

[Robert Jäschke]

Steps to implement:

1. Create a tab on /postPublication for posting a single URL (This can be handled already by our existing Java code.)
2. Implement code in the appropriate Edit*PostController to scrape several URLs from a list and parse their BibTeX (the scraping errors shall be handled via the controller's error handling).
3. Remove the tab from Step 1 and extend the snippet tab to also support posting of URLs (build a simple heuristic to identify lists of URls - one URL per line - and parse the URLs into a list)
4. Extend the Firefox add-on to support posting of several Tab-URLs to the tab created in Step 3.

This is a good Probeaufgabe, since each step builds upon another and it involves both JSP and Java Controller programming.

A nice Probeaufgabe
