crystals.CIFParser

class crystals.CIFParser(filename: PathLike, **kwargs)

Collection of methods that parses CIF files based on cif2cell. The preferred method of using this object is as a context manager.

Parameters:

filename (str or path-like) – Location of the CIF file.

__init__(filename: PathLike, **kwargs)

Methods

__delattr__(name, /)	Implement delattr(self, name).
__dir__()	Default dir() implementation.
__enter__()	Return self upon entering the runtime context.
__eq__(value, /)	Return self==value.
__exit__(*args, **kwargs)	Raise any exception triggered within the runtime context.
__format__(format_spec, /)	Default object formatter.
__ge__(value, /)	Return self>=value.
__getattribute__(name, /)	Return getattr(self, name).
__gt__(value, /)	Return self>value.
__hash__()	Return hash(self).
__init__(filename, **kwargs)
__init_subclass__	This method is called when a class is subclassed.
__le__(value, /)	Return self<=value.
__lt__(value, /)	Return self<value.
__ne__(value, /)	Return self!=value.
__new__(**kwargs)
__reduce__()	Helper for pickle.

hall_symbol()	Returns the Hall symbol
lattice_parameters()	Returns the lattice parameters associated to a CIF structure.
lattice_vectors()	Returns the lattice vectors associated to a CIF structure.
sym_ops_from_equiv(equiv_site)	Parse a symmetry operator from an equivalent-site representation
symmetry_operators()	Returns the symmetry operators that map the fractional atomic positions in a CIF file to the crystal conventional unit cell.
