Design flexible node-based workflow for AiiDA calculation.
Project description
AiiDA-WorkGraph
Efficiently design and manage flexible workflows with AiiDA, featuring an interactive GUI, checkpoints, provenance tracking, and remote execution capabilities.
Here is a detailed comparison between the WorkGraph
with two AiiDA built-in workflow components.

Execution order | Sequential |
Hybrid Sequential-Parallel |
Directed Acyclic Graph |
Non-blocking | No |

Installation
pip install aiida-workgraph
To install the latest version from source, first clone the repository and then install using pip
:
git clone https://github.com/aiidateam/aiida-workgraph
cd aiida-workgraph
pip install -e .
To install the jupyter widget support you need to in addition build the JavaScript packages:
pip install .[widget]
# build widget
cd aiida_workgraph/widget/
npm install
npm run build
# build web frontend
cd ../../aiida_workgraph/web/frontend/
npm install
npm run build
Documentation
Explore the comprehensive documentation to discover all the features and capabilities of AiiDA Workgraph.
Demo
Visit the Workgraph Collections repository to see demonstrations of how to utilize AiiDA Workgraph for different computational codes.
Examples
Suppose we want to calculate (x + y) * z
in two steps. First, add x
and y
, then multiply the result with z
.
from aiida.engine import calcfunction
from aiida_workgraph import WorkGraph
# define add calcfunction
@calcfunction
def add(x, y):
return x + y
# define multiply calcfunction
@calcfunction
def multiply(x, y):
return x*y
# Create a workgraph to link the tasks.
wg = WorkGraph("test_add_multiply")
wg.add_task(add, name="add1")
wg.add_task(multiply, name="multiply1")
wg.add_link(wg.tasks["add1"].outputs["result"], wg.tasks["multiply1"].inputs["x"])
Prepare inputs and submit the workflow:
from aiida import load_profile
load_profile()
wg.submit(inputs = {"add1": {"x": 2, "y": 3}, "multiply1": {"y": 4}}, wait=True)
print("Result of multiply1 is", wg.tasks["multiply1"].outputs[0].value)
Start the web app, open a terminal and run:
workgraph web start
Then visit the page http://127.0.0.1:8000/workgraph, you should find a first_workflow
WorkGraph, click the pk and view the WorkGraph.
One can also generate the node graph from the process:
verdi node generate pk
