lammps-interface¶
This program was designed for easy interface between the crystallographic information file (.cif) and the Large-scale Atomic Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (Lammps).
Installation¶
Simply install from PyPI:
pip install lammps-interface
For development purposes, clone the repository and install it from source:
pip install -e .
Note: In both cases, this adds lammps-interface to your PATH.
Usage¶
Command line interface¶
To see the optional arguments type:
