Overview
The Hugo Academic admin tool
allows for the ingestion of BibTeX records to add to the publication list.
One easy solution is to use the NASA ADS to retrieve such records from a
NASA ADS Library. However, such records often contain LaTeX \newcommand.
For example:
@ARTICLE{2016ApJS..226....5L,
author = {{Ly}, C. and {Malhotra}, S. and {Malkan}, M.~A. and {Rigby}, J.~R. and
{Kashikawa}, N. and {de los Reyes}, M.~A. and {Rhoads}, J.~E.
},
title = "{The Metal Abundances across Cosmic Time (MACT) Survey. I. Optical Spectroscopy in the Subaru Deep Field}",
journal = {\apjs},
archivePrefix = "arXiv",
eprint = {1602.01089},
keywords = {galaxies: abundances, galaxies: distances and redshifts, galaxies: evolution, galaxies: ISM, galaxies: photometry, galaxies: star formation},
year = 2016,
month = sep,
volume = 226,
eid = {5},
pages = {5},
doi = {10.3847/0067-0049/226/1/5},
adsurl = {https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016ApJS..226....5L},
adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System}
}

Here, the journal name is simplified to "\apjs". This ends up propagating into
Hugo Academic sites. To fix this, this simple pure Python script will convert
such aliases into the full journal names. It uses a journal database to
conduct the replacement.
Installation
There are two ways to get the code:

From PyPi
From source

But first, we recommend creating a separate (virtual) environment to avoid any
possible conflicts with existing software that you used. Instructions are
provided for conda and virtualenv.
From PyPi:
Using conda:
(base) $ (sudo) conda create -n bibtex python=3.7
(base) $ conda activate bibtex
(bibtex) $ (sudo) pip install academic-ads-bibtex

Using virtualenv:
(base) $ (sudo) conda install virtualenv # if not installed
(base) $ mkdir academic-ads-bibtex
(base) $ cd academic-ads-bibtex
(base) $ virtualenv venv
(base) $ source venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip install academic-ads-bibtex

From source:
Using conda:
(base) $ (sudo) conda create -n bibtex python=3.7
(base) $ conda activate bibtex
(bibtex) $ git clone https://github.com/astrochun/academic-ads-bibtex.git
(bibtex) $ cd academic-ads-bibtex
(bibtex) $ (sudo) python setup.py install

Using virtualenv:
(base) $ (sudo) conda install virtualenv # if not installed
(base) $ git clone https://github.com/astrochun/academic-ads-bibtex.git
(base) $ cd academic-ads-bibtex
(base) $ virtualenv venv
(base) $ source venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ python setup.py install

Examples
The primary script to execute is academic_ads_bibtex.
The above installation will include this executable in your python
environment paths.
Execution requires only one argument, which is the full path to the BibTeX
file. It can be provided with the -f or --filename command-line flags.
$ academic_ads_bibtex -f /full/path/to/my_pubs.bbl

By default:

The code uses the repository-based journal database,
bibtex_journals.db.
This can be changed by specifying the -d or --db_filename command-line
flag.
The revised BibTeX file will be based on the input filename with the
prefix changed to include _revised. For example, for the above case,
the output file will be /full/path/to/my_pubs_revised.bbl. This can be
changed by specifying the -o or --out_filename command-line flag.

A log file is constructed: /full/path/to/academic_ads_bibtex.YYYY-MM-DD.log
Versioning
We use SemVer for versioning. For the versions available,
