atoms

Schemas for storing metadata about Atoms objects.

atoms_to_metadata 

atoms_to_metadata(
    atoms: Atoms,
    charge_and_multiplicity: tuple[int, int] | None = None,
    get_metadata: bool = True,
    store_pmg: bool = True,
    additional_fields: dict[str, Any] | None = None,
) -> AtomsSchema

Convert an ASE Atoms object to a dict suitable for storage in MongoDB.

Parameters:

  • atoms (Atoms) –

    ASE Atoms object to store in {"atoms": atoms}

  • charge_and_multiplicity (tuple[int, int] | None, default: None ) –

    Charge and spin multiplicity of the Atoms object, only used for Molecule metadata.

  • get_metadata (bool, default: True ) –

    Whether to store atoms metadata in the returned dict.

  • store_pmg (bool, default: True ) –

    Whether to store the Pymatgen Structure/Molecule object in {"structure": Structure} or {"molecule": Molecule}, respectively.

  • additional_fields (dict[str, Any] | None, default: None ) –

    Additional fields to add to the document.

Returns:

  • AtomsSchema –

    Dict of metadata about the Atoms object.
