Usage

Python Module

MolParse is primarily a python module which can be used interactively, or within (batch) scripts:

Use pydoc to see help on the molparse module, or its methods & classes. E.g. from a shell:

pydoc molparse

pydoc molparse.System

Binaries and command-line programs

moltree

In addition to the python module, an interactive command-line interface is available with the binary moltree. Pass a PDB or GRO file as follows:

moltree <FILE>

Use the mouse to interact with buttons and CTR-C to exit.

molxvg

Gromacs produces data files in XVG format by default, these can be parsed using the molparse.xvg.parseXVG method from within a python environment, alternatively a binary exists to access its basic functionality from the command line. Run the following to open an interactive plotly graph of an xvg:

molxvg [FILE.xvg] -s

Other options can be found by running molxvg --help.
