Installation¶
Install via PyPI
pip install assyst
or conda-forge
conda install -c conda-forge assyst
Optional Dependencies¶
ASSYST requires some ASE calculators to perform structure relaxations, but is agnostic to which specifically.
The example notebooks use either builtin ASE calculators or the
Graph Atomic Cluster Expansion.
When using pip, you can install the necessary packages with the grace optional dependency
pip install assyst[grace]
When installing via conda follow the instructions on the GRACE home page or try the grace-tensorpotential package
from conda-forge.
The example notebooks also fit simple Atomic Cluster Expansion models, though not technically part of the ASSYST
workflow.
You will need to install the python-ace conda-forge package or follow the
instructions.
