solvate: A simple tool to create solvated molecular systems in python
solvate is a lightweight Python package designed to quickly build initial structures of molecular dynamics simulations. Based on MDAnalysis, it is flexible and easy to use.
This tool is inspired by similar tools like GROMACS solvate, but aims to provide a more user-friendly interface and additional features.
Features
- Insert molecules into target systems of different geometries (cubic, rectangular, spherical)
- Fast solvation of large structures using spatial partitioning
- Customizable solvent and solute molecules
- Support for various file formats via MDAnalysis
Installation
You can install solvate via pip:
pip install solvate
Or clone the repository and install it manually:
git clone https://github.com/maicos-devel/solvate.git
cd solvate
pip install .
