Goals

  • powerful and stable calculator supports for popular Ab initio programs
  • fully featured results analysis
  • user friendly structure builder
  • automated workflow for high throughput calculation[including database handling]
    • automatical choice of appropriate parameters
    • automatical correction of error during running
  • statistical analysis for properties, basic machine learning module
  • Note: I am currently not willing to implement a general representation of calculations
    because I think a powerful input generation engine for different dft programs is more
    important at present. and an overall representation is just a trick to port task to
    specific calculators, which I am not preparing to make one now.[but probably there will
    be one in the future.]
    
  • support for system visulization by third-party molecular visualizer like Avogadro, Vipster, paraview, vtk, vmd, xcrysden, vesta, blender
  • support for third-party structure generation tools, like mbuild, atomsk, msmbuilder,
  • using spgroup to get space group of crystals.
  • add Sphix docs and host it on readthedoc.org

TODO

CP2K

  • I found the cell opt result of cp2k is not reasonable(maybe inappropriate parameter setting), go and fix it![OK]
we should know that when your system is small, you have to use a larger kpoint scheme so that the density of k grids
in k space is suffice to gurantee the accuracy. So small system need larger kpoint scheme, or the scf calculation is
not right, and the optimization will not get good results too.

Note: OT calculation doesn't support KPOINTS setting
