Methods

__init__(filename[, mode, comment]) Initialize self.
dir_file([filename]) File of the current Sile
exist() Query whether the file exists
read(*args, **kwargs) Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes
read_dynamical_matrix(**kwargs) Returns a GULP dynamical matrix model for the output of GULP
read_geometry(**kwargs) Reads a geometry and creates the GULP dynamical geometry
read_super([key]) Reads the dimensions of the supercell
read_supercell([key]) Reads a SuperCell and creates the GULP cell

write(*args, **kwargs) Generic write method which should be overloaded in child-classes
base_file

File of the current Sile

dir_file(filename=None)

File of the current Sile

exist()

Query whether the file exists

file

File of the current Sile

read(*args, **kwargs)

Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters:
kwargs :

keyword arguments will try and search for the attribute read_<> and call it with the remaining **kwargs as arguments.

read_dynamical_matrix(**kwargs)[source]

Returns a GULP dynamical matrix model for the output of GULP

Parameters:
cutoff: float, optional

absolute values below the cutoff are considered 0. Defaults to 1e-4 eV/Ang**2.

dtype: np.dtype (np.float64)

default data-type of the matrix

order: list of str, optional

the order of which to try and read the dynamical matrix By default this is ['got'/'gout', 'FC']. Note that FC corresponds to the fcSileGULP file (FORCE_CONSTANTS_2ND).

read_geometry(**kwargs)[source]

Reads a geometry and creates the GULP dynamical geometry

read_super(key=None)[source]

Reads the dimensions of the supercell

read_supercell(key=None, **kwargs)[source]

Reads a SuperCell and creates the GULP cell

set_dyn_key(key)

Overwrites internal key lookup value for the dynamical matrix vectors

set_dynamical_matrix_key(key)[source]

Overwrites internal key lookup value for the dynamical matrix vectors

set_geometry_key(key)[source]

Overwrites internal key lookup value for the geometry vectors

set_key(segment, key)[source]

Sets the segment lookup key

set_supercell_key(key)[source]

Overwrites internal key lookup value for the cell vectors

write(*args, **kwargs)

Generic write method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters:
**kwargs :

keyword arguments will try and search for the attribute write_ and call it with the remaining **kwargs as arguments.
