README

SHRY (Suite for High-throughput generation of models with atomic substitutions implemented by python) is a tool for generating unique ordered structures corresponding to a given disordered structure. The documentation is available here.

How to cite

Please cite the following paper:

• SHRY: Application of Canonical Augmentation to the Atomic Substitution Problem, G.I. Prayogo*, A. Tirelli, K. Utimula, K. Hongo, R. Maezono, and K. Nakano*, J. Chem. Inf. Model., 62, 2909-2915 (2022), DOI: 10.1021/acs.jcim.2c00389

Installation

SHRY can be obtained from PyPI

pip install shry

Development

If you prefer to install from source, instead follow the procedures below.

git clone https://github.com/shry-project/SHRY.git
cd shry
pip install -e .

Quick use

Preparation of an input file (a CIF file)

You can prepare a CIF file with partial occupations.

# label element x y z occupation
Sm1 Sm 0.000 0.00 0.00 1.000
Fe1 Fe 0.250 0.25 0.25 0.400
Nb1 Nb 0.250 0.25 0.25 0.600
Fe2 Fe 0.278 0.50 0.00 1.000

SHRY will automatically stop if the total occupancy of a site is either less or more than 1.0. To simulate vacancies, create a pseudo atom with species X.

Check total symmetry-inequivalent structures

You can readily check the number of total symmetry-inquivalent structures using the following command.

shry --count-only STRUCTURE_CIF

This operation is based on Polya enumeration and takes much less time than a proper generation.

Creating supercell

Sometimes a supercell is required to fit in finer concentrations. SHRY accepts either 3-digit (diagonal) or 9-digit (non-diagonal) format to specify the supercell's scaling matrix. For example a 2x2x1 supercell can be specified by either

shry -s 2 2 1 --count-only STRUCTURE_CIF

or

shry -s 2 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 1 --count-only STRUCTURE_CIF

Generating unique structures

Finally, you can generate symmetry-inequivalent structures using the following command:

shry -s 2 2 1 STRUCTURE_CIF

The generated symmetry-inequivalent structures are saved in sliceXX directories.

Additional information

For additional information, you can use the help command:

shry -h

or you can refer to the documentation.

Contributing to the project

Please work on your forked repository, and send a pull request to the main branch of the original GitHub repository.

If you want to contribute to the project, report a bug, or ask for a new feature, please raise an issue.

Branches

• main: main branch.
• devel*: development branches.
• rc: the latest stable version ready for deployment of the package.
• rc-gh-pages: the latest stable version ready for deployment of the documentation.

Every time a change is pushed to the main or devel* branch, the GitHub workflow launches the implemented unit and integration tests (shry-pytest.yml) for the main and devel* branches).

How to deploy the package

Once the main branch is merged into the rc branch, the GitHub workflow launches the implemented unit and integration tests (shry-pytest.yml) and test a deployment using test-PyPI. Then, once a tag is attached to (the latest) commit in the rc branch, the GitHub workflow checks the tag format (PEP 440 with the starting v, e.g., v0.1.0b4, v0.1.1, v1.0) and deploy the package to PyPI.

Formatting

Formatting rules are written in pyproject.toml.

Pre-commit

Pre-commit (https://pre-commit.com/) is mainly used for applying the formatting rules automatically. Therefore, it is strongly encouraged to use it at or before git-commit. Pre-commit is set-up and used in the following way:

• Installed by pip install pre-commit, conda install pre_commit or see https://pre-commit.com/#install.
• pre-commit hook is installed by pre-commit install.
• pre-commit hook is run by pre-commit run --all-files.

Unless running pre-commit, pre-commit.ci may push the fix at PR by github action. In this case, the fix should be merged by the contributor's repository.

VSCode setting

• Not strictly, but VSCode's settings.json may be written like below

  "ruff.lint.args": [
      "--config=${workspaceFolder}/pyproject.toml",
  ],
  "[python]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "charliermarsh.ruff",
      "editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
          "source.organizeImports": "explicit"
      }
  },
  

How to run tests

Tests are written using pytest. To run tests, pytest has to be installed. The tests can be run by

% pytest -s -v
