pygamess is a GAMESS wrapper for Python

Requirements

  • Python 2.6 or later (not support 3.x)

  • RDKit

  • GAMESS

Features

  • nothing

Setup

$ pip install pygamess

set GAMESS_HOME environment in your .bashrc:

$ export GAMESS_HOME=/usr/local/gamess

Basic Usage

single point calculation with RDKit

>>> from pygamess import Gamess
>>> from rdkit import Chem
>>> from rdkit.Chem import AllChem
>>> m = Chem.MolFromSmiles("CC")
>>> m = Chem.AddHs(m)
>>> AllChem.EmbedMolecule(m)
0
>>> AllChem.UFFOptimizeMolecule(m,maxIters=200)
0
>>> g = Gamess()
>>> nm = g.run(m)
>>> nm.GetProp("total_energy")
'-78.302511990200003'

optimize calculation with RDKit

Change run_type:

>>> from pygamess import Gamess
>>> from rdkit import Chem
>>> from rdkit.Chem import AllChem
>>> m = Chem.MolFromSmiles("CC")
>>> m = Chem.AddHs(m)
>>> AllChem.EmbedMolecule(m)
0
>>> AllChem.UFFOptimizeMolecule(m,maxIters=200)
0
>>> g = Gamess()
>>> g.run_type('optimize')
>>> optimized_mol = g.run(mol)
>>> optimized_mol.GetProp("total_energy")
'-78.306179626599999'

change basis-sets

Change basis set:

>>> from pygamess import Gamess
>>> from rdkit import Chem
>>> from rdkit.Chem import AllChem
>>> m = Chem.MolFromSmiles("CC")
>>> m = Chem.AddHs(m)
>>> AllChem.EmbedMolecule(m)
0
>>> AllChem.UFFOptimizeMolecule(m,maxIters=200)
0
>>> g = Gamess()
>>> g.run_type = "optimize"
>>> g.run(m).GetProp("total_energy")
'-78.302511907400003'
>>> g.basis_set("3-21G")
{'gbasis': 'N21', 'ngauss': '3'}
>>> g.run(m).GetProp("total_energy")
'-78.790442552000002'
>>> g.basis_set("6-31G")
{'gbasis': 'N31', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(m).GetProp("total_energy")
'-79.194024566899998'
>>> g.basis_set("6-31G*")
{'gbasis': 'N31', 'ndfunc': '1', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(m).GetProp("total_energy")
'-79.225521673399996'
>>> g.basis_set("6-31G**")
{'gbasis': 'N31', 'ndfunc': '1', 'npfunc': '1', 'ngauss': '6'}
>>> g.run(m).GetProp("total_energy")
'-79.235082450899995'

or edit property of Gamess instance:

>>> g.basis = {'gbasis': 'sto', 'ngauss': '3'}
>>> mol_sto3g = g.run(m)
>>> mol_sto3g.GetProp("total_energy")
'-78.302511907400003'

print GAMESS INPUT

use input method:

>>> g.input(mol)
