Create of Local Copy of the famous [EMSL Basis Set Exchange](https://bse.pnl.gov/bse/portal) and use it easily with the API.
* Make a slight copy (40Mo Sqlite3 database) of the EMSL Basis Set Exchange website (One database for all the basis set of one format);
* Make a slight copy (40Mo Sqlite3 database) of the EMSL Basis Set Exchange website. Currently avalaible format are :
* Currently available are : Gamess-us, Gaussian94 and NEWCHEM;
* API for scripting;
* Quick local access without delay;
* Only need [Python](https://www.python.org/)

##To do
For now we can only parse Gaussian-US basis set type file. (Look at ```./src/EMSL_utility.py#EMSL_dump.basis_data_row_to_array```)
For now we can only parse `Gamess-us, Gaussian94 and NEWCHEM` (Thanks to @mattbernst for Gaussian94 and NEWCHEM) basis set type file.
###I need more format!
I realy simple. Just read the few explanation bellow.
You just need to provide a function who will split the basis data who containt all the atoms in atom only.
Sommething like this:
```python
def parse_basis_data_gaussian94(data, name, description, elements, debug=True):
"""Parse the Gaussian94 basis data raw html to get a nice tuple.
The data-pairs item is actually expected to be a 2 item list:
[symbol, data]
e.g. ["Ca", "#BASIS SET..."]
N.B.: Currently ignores ECP data!
@param data: raw HTML from BSE
@type data : unicode
@param name: basis set name
@type name : str
@param des: basis set description
@type des : str
@param elements: element symbols e.g. ['H', 'C', 'N', 'O', 'Cl']
@type elements : list
@return: (name, description, data-pairs)
@rtype : tuple
"""
```
Then just add the function in `src.parser_handler.format_dict`. You are ready to go!
Feel free to fork/pull request.
