The LaTeX code inside title would become invalid after `clean_bibtex_str`

[Ionizing]

Thanks for this awesome tool to help me build the academic page and it finally comes to the last part. But I found there is something wrong with the output

The {} and \ inside title

If there were short LaTeX code in the title like:

@article{PhysRevLett.105.136805,
  title = {Atomically Thin ${\mathrm{MoS}}_{2}$: A New Direct-Gap Semiconductor},
  author = {Mak, Kin Fai and Lee, Changgu and Hone, James and Shan, Jie and Heinz, Tony F.},
  journal = {Phys. Rev. Lett.},
  volume = {105},
  issue = {13},
  pages = {136805},
  numpages = {4},
  year = {2010},
  month = {Sep},
  publisher = {American Physical Society },
  doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.136805},
  url = {https://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.136805}
}

(This bib is exported from the APS website)

After the process by academic, the cite.bib would be like:

@article{PhysRevLett.105.136805,
 author = {Mak, Kin Fai and Lee, Changgu and Hone, James and Shan, Jie and Heinz, Tony F.},
 doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.136805},
 issue = {13},
 journal = {Phys. Rev. Lett. },
 month = {Sep},
 numpages = {4},
 pages = {136805},
 publisher = {American Physical Society},
 title = {"Atomically Thin $\mathrmMoS_2$: A New Direct-Gap Semiconductor"},
 url = {https://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.136805},
 volume = {105},
 year = {2010}
}

Also the index.md would be like:

---
title: '\"Atomically Thin $mathrmMoS_2$: A New Direct-Gap Semiconductor\"'
date: '2010-09-01'
draft: true
publishDate: '2021-08-21T05:51:14.899975Z'
authors:
- Kin Fai Mak
- Changgu Lee
- James Hone
- Jie Shan
- Tony F. Heinz
publication_types:
- '2'
abstract: ''
featured: false
publication: '*Phys. Rev. Lett. *'
url_pdf: https://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.136805
doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.105.136805
---

Someone suggested adding quotation to surround the title but ended with no help.

It seems all the {}s and \s are trimmed by https://github.com/wowchemy/hugo-academic-cli/blob/main/academic/import_bibtex.py#L87

page.fm["title"] = clean_bibtex_str(entry["title"])

where

def clean_bibtex_str(s):
    """Clean BibTeX string and escape TOML special characters"""
    s = s.replace("\\", "")
    s = s.replace('"', '\\"')
    s = s.replace("{", "").replace("}", "")
    s = s.replace("\t", " ").replace("\n", " ").replace("\r", "")
    return s

I checked the code and I guess the expected behavior is only trimming the surrounding {} for title (or even for all fields). Maybe the function clean_bibtex_str needs to be refined ...

The space at the end of journal

Pay attention to the frontmatter of index.md: if there is extra spaces at the end of journal, the publication item of frontmatter would be like publication: '*Phys. Rev. Lett. *' which leads to unresolved markdown emphasis format.

I think just an extra str.strip can resolve this issue easily.

Seems I need to do it myself?
