openbabel 2.3
GAMESS
Features
nothing
Setup
$ easy_install pygamess
set GAMESS_PATH environment in your .bashrc:
$ export GAMESS_HOME=/usr/local/gamess
Basic Usage
single point calculation with pybel
>>> from pygamess import Gamess
>>> import pybel
>>> g = Gamess()
>>> mol = pybel.readstring('smi','C=C')
>>> mol.make3D()
>>> optimized_mol = g.run(mol)
>>> optimized_mol.energy

single point calculation with openbabel
>>> import pygamess
>>> g = pygamess.Gamess()
>>> import openbabel as ob
>>> obc = ob.OBConversion()
>>> obc.SetInFormat("mol")
True
>>> mol = ob.OBMol()
>>> obc.ReadFile(mol, "examples/ethane.mol")
True
>>> try:
... newmol = g.run(mol)
... except GamessError, gerr:
... print gerr.value
...
>>> newmol.GetEnergy()

optimize calculation with pybel
set run_type:
>>> from pygamess import Gamess
>>> import pybel
>>> g = Gamess()
>>> g.run_type('optimize')
>>> mol = pybel.readstring('smi','C')
>>> mol.make3D()
>>> optimized_mol = g.run(mol)
>>> optimized_mol.energy

changing basis-sets
basis_type method:
>>> import pybel
>>> from pygamess import Gamess
>>> g = Gamess()
>>> mol = pybel.readstring('smi', 'O')
>>> mol.make3D()
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-74.96450135
>>> g.run_type('optimize')
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-74.9659012146
>>> g.basis_set('3-21G')
{'gbasis': 'N21', 'ngauss': '3'}
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-75.585959758
>>> g.basis_set('6-31G')
{'gbasis': 'N31', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-75.9853591564
>>> g.basis_set('6-311G')
{'gbasis': 'N311', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-76.0109546389
>>> g.basis_set('6-31G*')
{'gbasis': 'N31', 'ndfunc': '1', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-76.0107465155
>>> g.basis_set('6-31G**')
{'gbasis': 'N31', 'ndfunc': '1', 'npfunc': '1', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(mol).energy
-76.0236150193
or edit property of Gamess instance:
>>> g.basis = {'gbasis': 'sto', 'ngauss': '3'}
>>> mol_sto3g = g.run(mol)
>>> mol_sto3g.GetEnergy()

print GAMESS INPUT
use input method:
>>> g.input(mol)
