Tests Linting Docs PyPI Python License: MIT One Good Tutorial docs checklist v1: adopted Hatch project DOI

A pure-python1 parsing and plotting library for computational chemistry outputs. chemparseplot extracts structured data from quantum chemistry codes (ORCA, eOn, Sella, ChemGP) and produces publication-quality, unit-aware visualizations with scientific color maps.

Computational tasks (surface fitting, structure analysis, interpolation) are handled by rgpycrumbs, which is a required dependency. chemparseplot parses output files, delegates heavy computation to rgpycrumbs, and produces publication-quality plots.

Installation

pip install chemparseplot
# With plotting support
pip install "chemparseplot[plot]"
# Everything
pip install "chemparseplot[all]"

For development:

git clone https://github.com/HaoZeke/chemparseplot
cd chemparseplot
uv sync --all-extras

See the installation guide and quickstart for details.

Ecosystem Overview

chemparseplot is part of the rgpycrumbs suite of interlinked libraries.

Features

  • Parsing computational chemistry output files into structured data
  • Plotting with scientific color maps (camera-ready)
  • Unit preserving throughout via pint
  • Computation delegated to rgpycrumbs for surface fitting, interpolation, and structure analysis
  • NEB stitching (stitch_neb_segments) for continuous multi-segment bands (v1.8+)
  • Metadata-native eOn CON frames and typed parser results for NEB and single-ended tools
  • Unit-aware plot helpers (convert_neb_values, shared strip rendering) used by rgpycrumbs CLIs

Supported Engines

  • ORCA (5.x)
    • Geometry scan (OPT) energy profiles
    • Nudged elastic band (NEB) path visualization
  • eOn
    • Saddle search parsing (Dimer, GPRD, LBFGS methods)
    • NEB path energy profiles with landscape projections
  • Sella
    • Saddle point optimization result parsing
  • Trajectory formats
    • HDF5 trajectories (ChemGP output with pre-computed forces)
    • Generic ASE-readable formats (extxyz, .traj) for NEB analysis
