Features

• Add input files using SinglefileData:

  SinglefileData = DataFactory('singlefile')
  filemain = SinglefileData(file='vmc.inp')
  molecule = SinglefileData(file='butadiene.xyz')
  orbitals = SinglefileData(file='cas44.lcao')
  determinants = SinglefileData(file='cas44.det')
  

Installation

pip install aiida-champ
verdi quicksetup  # better to set up a new profile
verdi plugin list aiida.calculations  # should now show your calclulation plugins

Usage

Here goes a complete example of how to submit a test calculation using this plugin.

A quick demo of how to submit a calculation:

verdi daemon start     # make sure the daemon is running
cd examples
python example_01.py        # run test calculation
verdi process list -a  # check record of calculation

The plugin also includes verdi commands to inspect its data types:

verdi data champ list
verdi data champ export <PK>

Development

git clone https://github.com/neelravi/aiida-champ .
cd aiida-champ
pip install -e .[pre-commit,testing]  # install extra dependencies
