NOMAD's Material Processing Plugin

This is a plugin for NOMAD which contains base sections for material processing.

Getting started

nomad-material-processing can be installed from PyPI using pip.

[!WARNING] Unfortunately, the current plugin mechanism is not supported by the latest nomad-lab version on PyPI and therefore an index url pointing to the NOMAD Gitlab registry needs to be added.

pip install nomad-material-processing --index-url https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/api/v4/projects/2187/packages/pypi/simple

Setting up your OASIS

Read the NOMAD plugin documentation for all details on how to deploy the plugin on your NOMAD instance.

You don't need to modify the nomad.yaml configuration file of your NOMAD instance, beacuse the package is pip installed and all the available modules (entry points) are loaded. To include, instead, only some of the entry points, you need to specify them in the include section of the nomad.yaml. In the following lines, a list of all the available entry points:

plugins:
  include:
    - "nomad_material_processing:schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.solution:schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.vapor_deposition.cvd:schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.vapor_deposition.pvd:schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.vapor_deposition.pvd:mbe_schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.vapor_deposition.pvd:pld_schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.vapor_deposition.pvd:sputtering_schema"
    - "nomad_material_processing.vapor_deposition.pvd:thermal_schema"
