cleanup_attrs

cleanup_attrs(qchem: QChem) -> None

Clean up self attribute parameters in place.

Parameters:

  • qchem (QChem) –

    The QChem object

get_rem_swaps

get_rem_swaps(
    rem: dict[str, Any], restart: bool = False
) -> dict[str, Any]

Automatic swaps for the rem dictionary.

Parameters:

  • rem (dict[str, Any]) –

    rem dictionary

  • restart (bool, default: False ) –

    Whether or not this is a restart calculation.

Returns:

  • dict

    rem dictionary with swaps

make_qc_input

make_qc_input(qchem: QChem, atoms: Atoms) -> QCInput

Make a QCInput object. It will, by default, create a QCInput from the QChem calculator kwargs. If qchem.qchem_dict_set_params is specified, it will create a QCInput from a QChemDictSet, merging the two QCInput objects and taking the latter as higher priority.

Parameters:

  • qchem (QChem) –

    The QChem object.

Returns:
