Workflow file for this run

# This workflow is used to update the Zotero information that populates the
# publication lists on the website.
#
# When: this workflow is run when ever a commit is pushed to the `main` or
# `test_actions` branches
#
# What: This workflow uses wget to fetch data from Zotero and store it in a format
# that will be used automatically by Jekyll when processing pages
#
# Requirements: For this action to work, there must be a secret key that
# authorizes access to the Zotero data through its API.
# You can learn more about such OAuth keys here:
# https://www.zotero.org/settings/keys/new
# This key should be stored as `secrets.ZOTERO_GH_TOKEN`
name: fetch_zotero
# Controls when the action will run.
