zim-zotero-plugin not working under Windows

[he-b]

Hi,

I was trying to use zim-zotero-plugin in Windows. Zim does not recognize the plugin.

Do you know why is not working under windows?

Thanks!

I didn't test the plugin on Windows. Will check it and revert back.

Can confirm.
The problem in my case isn't specific to Windows in general but with using ZimPortable on Windows without a full python installation.
Hence:

ERROR: Could not load plugin zim-zotero-plugin
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "zim\gui\preferencesdialog.pyo", line 322, in init
File "zim\plugins_init_.pyo", line 211, in get_plugin_class
File "zim\utils_init_.pyo", line 39, in get_module
File "D:\Zim Desktop Wiki Portable\App\Data\zim\plugins\zim-zotero-plugin_init_.py", line 17, in
ImportError: No module named urllib2

In ZimPortable, python libraries seem to be packaged as dll-files under /App/ZimDesktopWiki/. Maybe if someone is able to locate/create a dll for urllib2, dropping this there would already solve the problem.

Using a proper python (and zim) installation would clearly be the better option though. But that's for people with administrative privileges. (-;

@aetherfaerber Thank you for the lead. Can you confirm that the plugin works when you have full python installed? Or, using Zim non-portable version?

@shivams sorry, I can't. The only windows I have access to is the one at work where I don't have admin/installation privileges.
