ommprotocol 0.1.11

Some cool features

• No coding required - just a YAML input file!

• Smart support for different input file formats:

  • Topology: PDB/PDBx, Mol2, Amber’s PRMTOP, Charmm’s PSF, Gromacs’ TOP, Desmond’s DMS

  • Positions: PDB, COOR, INPCRD, CRD, GRO

  • Velocities: PDB, VEL

  • Box vectors: PDB, XSC, CSV, INPCRD, GRO

  • A fallback method is implemented and will attempt to load verything else that might be supported by ParmEd.

• Choose your preferred trajectory format (PDB, PDBx, DCD, HDF5, NETCDF, MDCRD) and checkpoints (Amber’s, CHARMM’s, OpenMM XML states).

• Live report of simulation progress, with estimated ETA and speed.

• Checkpoint every n steps. Also, emergency rescue files are created if an error occurs.

• Autochunk the trajectories for easy handling.
