This interactive Tutorial covers some basic use cases of the TREXIO library based on the Python API. At this point, it is assumed that the TREXIO Python package has been sucessfully installed on the user machine or in the virtual environment. If this is not the case, feel free to follow the installation guide.
+First of all, let’s import the TREXIO package.
+try:
+ import trexio
+except ImportError:
+ raise Exception("Unable to import trexio. Please check that trexio is properly instaled.")
If no error occurs, then it means that the TREXIO package has been sucessfully imported. Within the current import, TREXIO attributes can be accessed using the corresponding trexio.attribute
notation. If you prefer to bound a shorter name to the imported module (as commonly done by the NumPy users with import numpy as np
), this is also possible. To do so, replace import trexio
with import trexio as tr
for example. To learn more about importing modules, see the corresponding page of the Python documentation.
TREXIO currently supports two back ends for file I/O:
+TREXIO_HDF5
, which relies on extensive use of the HDF5 library and the associated binary file format. This back end is optimized for high performance but it requires HDF5 to be installed on the user machine.
TREXIO_TEXT
, which relies on basic I/O operations that are available in the standard C library. This back end is not optimized for performance but it is supposed to work “out-of-the-box” since there are no external dependencies.
Armed with these new definitions, let’s proceed with the tutorial. The first task is to create a TREXIO file called benzene_demo.h5
. But first we have to remove the file if it exists in the current directory
filename = 'benzene_demo.h5'
+
+import os
+try:
+ os.remove(filename)
+except:
+ print(f"File {filename} does not exist.")
File benzene_demo.h5 does not exist.
+We are now ready to create a new TREXIO file:
+ +This creates an instance of the trexio.File
class, which we refer to as demo_file
in this tutorial. You can check that the corresponding file called benzene_demo.h5
exists in the root directory. It is now open for writing as indicated by the user-supplied argument mode='w'
. The file has been initiated using TREXIO_HDF5
back end and will be accessed accordingly from now on. The information about back end is stored internally by TREXIO, which means that there is no need to specify it every time the I/O operation is performed. If the file named benzene_demo.h5
already exists, then it is re-opened for writing (and not truncated to prevent data loss).
Prior to any work with TREXIO library, we highly recommend users to read about TREXIO internal configuration, which explains the structure of the wavefunction file. The reason is that TREXIO API has a naming convention, which is based on the groups and variables names that are pre-defined by the developers. In this Tutorial, we will only cover contents of the nucleus
group. Note that custom groups and variables can be added to the TREXIO API.
In this Tutorial, we consider benzene molecule (C6H6) as an example. Since benzene has 12 atoms, let’s specify it in the previously created demo_file
. In order to do so, one has to call trexio.write_nucleus_num
function, which accepts an instance of the trexio.File
class as a first argument and an int
value corresponding to the number of nuclei as a second argument.
In fact, all API functions that contain write_
prefix can be used in a similar way. Variables that contain _num
suffix are important part of the TREXIO file because some of them define dimensions of arrays. For example, nucleus_num
variable corresponds to the number of atoms, which will be internally used to write/read the nucleus_coord
array of nuclear coordinates. In order for TREXIO files to be self-consistent, overwriting num-suffixed variables is currently disabled.
The number of atoms is not sufficient to define a molecule. Let’s first create a list of nuclear charges, which correspond to benzene.
+ +According to the TREX configuration file, there is a charge
attribute of the nucleus
group, which has float
type and [nucleus_num]
dimension. The charges
list defined above fits nicely in the description and can be written as follows
Note: TREXIO function names only contain parts in singular form. This means that, both write_nucleus_charges
and write_nuclear_charges
are invalid API calls. These functions simply do not exist in the trexio
Python package and the corresponding error message should appear.
Alternatively, one can provide a list of nuclear labels (chemical elements from the periodic table) that correspond to the aforementioned charges. There is a label
attribute of the nucleus
group, which has str
type and [nucleus_num]
dimension. Let’s create a list of 12 strings, which correspond to 6 carbon and 6 hydrogen atoms:
This can now be written using the corresponding trexio.write_nucleus_label
function:
Two examples above demonstrate how to write arrays of numbers or strings in the file. TREXIO also supports I/O operations on single numerical or string attributes. In fact, in this Tutorial you have already written one numerical attribute: nucleus_num
. Let’s now write a string 'D6h'
, which indicates a point group of benzene molecule. According to the TREX configuration file, point_group
is a str
attribute of the nucleus
group, thus it can be written in the demo_file
as follows
The aforementioned examples cover the majority of the currently implemented functionality related to writing data in the file. It is worth mentioning that I/O of numerical arrays in TREXIO Python API relies on extensive use of the NumPy package. This will be discussed in more details in the section about reading data. However, TREXIO write_
functions that work with numerical arrays also accept numpy.ndarray
objects. For example, consider a coords
list of nuclear coordinates that correspond to benzene molecule
coords = [
+ [0.00000000 , 1.39250319 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [-1.20594314 , 0.69625160 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [-1.20594314 , -0.69625160 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [0.00000000 , -1.39250319 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [1.20594314 , -0.69625160 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [1.20594314 , 0.69625160 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [-2.14171677 , 1.23652075 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [-2.14171677 , -1.23652075 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [0.00000000 , -2.47304151 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [2.14171677 , -1.23652075 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [2.14171677 , 1.23652075 , 0.00000000 ],
+ [0.00000000 , 2.47304151 , 0.00000000 ],
+ ]
Let’s take advantage of using NumPy arrays with fixed precision for floating point numbers. But first, try to import the numpy
package
try:
+ import numpy as np
+except ImportError:
+ raise Exception("Unable to import numpy. Please check that numpy is properly instaled.")
You can now convert the previously defined coords
list into a numpy array with fixed float64
type as follows
TREXIO functions that write numerical arrays accept both lists and numpy arrays as a second argument. That is, both trexio.write_nucleus_coord(demo_file, coords)
and trexio.write_nucleus_coord(demo_file, coords_np)
are valid API calls. Let’s use the latter and see if it works
Congratulations, you have just completed the nucleus
section of the TREXIO file for benzene molecule! Note that TREXIO API is rather permissive and do not impose any strict ordering on the I/O operations. The only requirement is that dimensioning (_num
suffixed) variables have to be written in the file before writing arrays that depend on these variables. For example, attempting to write nucleus_charge
or nucleus_coord
fails if nucleus_num
has not been written.
TREXIO Python API provides the trexio.Error
class which simplifies exception handling in the Python scripts. This class wraps up TREXIO return codes and propagates them all the way from the C back end to the Python front end. Let’s try to write a negative number of basis set shells basis_num
in the TREXIO file.
try:
+ trexio.write_basis_num(demo_file, -256)
+except trexio.Error as e:
+ print(f"TREXIO error message: {e.message}")
TREXIO error message: Invalid argument 2
+The error message says Invalid argument 2, which indicates that the user-provided value -256
is not valid.
As mentioned before, _num
-suffixed variables cannot be overwritten in the file. But what happens if you accidentally attempt to do so? Let’s have a look at the write_nucleus_num
function as an example:
try:
+ trexio.write_nucleus_num(demo_file, 24)
+except trexio.Error as e:
+ print(f"TREXIO error message: {e.message}")
TREXIO error message: Attribute already exists
+The API rightfully complains that the target attribute already exists and cannot be overwritten.
+Alternatively, the aforementioned case can be handled using trexio.has_nucleus_num
function as follows
TREXIO functions with has_
prefix return True
if the corresponding variable exists and False
otherwise.
What about writing arrays? Let’s try to write an list of 48 nuclear indices instead of 12
+ +try:
+ trexio.write_basis_nucleus_index(demo_file, indices)
+except trexio.Error as e:
+ print(f"TREXIO error message: {e.message}")
TREXIO error message: Access to memory beyond allocated
+According to the TREX configuration file, nucleus_index
attribute of a basis
group is supposed to have [nucleus_num]
elements. In the example above, we have tried to write 4 times more elements, which might lead to memory and/or file corruption. Luckily, TREXIO internally checks the array dimensions and returns an error in case of inconsistency.
It is good practice to close the TREXIO file at the end of the session. In fact, trexio.File
class has a destructor, which normally takes care of that. However, if you intend to re-open the TREXIO file, it has to be closed explicitly before. This can be done using the close
method, i.e.
Good! You are now ready to inspect the contents of the benzene_demo.h5
file using the reading functionality of TREXIO.
First, let’s try to open an existing TREXIO file in read-only mode. This can be done by creating a new instance of the trexio.File
class but this time with mode='r'
argument. Back end has to be specified as well.
When reading data from the TREXIO file, the only required argument is a previously created instance of trexio.File
class. In our case, it is demo_file_r
. TREXIO functions with read_
prefix return the desired variable as an output. For example, nucleus_num
value can be read from the file as follows
nucleus_num from benzene_demo.h5 file ---> 12
+The function call assigns nucleus_num_r
to 12, which is consistent with the number of atoms in benzene that we wrote in the previous section.
All calls to functions that read data can be done in a very similar way. The key point here is a function name, which in turn defines the output format. Hopefully by now you got used to the TREXIO naming convention and the contents of the nucleus
group. Which function would you call to read a point_group
attribute of the nucleus
group? What type does it return? See the answer below:
print(f"nucleus_point_group from {filename} TREXIO file ---> {point_group_r}\n")
+print(f"Is return type of read_nucleus_point_group a string? ---> {isinstance(point_group_r, str)}")
nucleus_point_group from benzene_demo.h5 TREXIO file ---> D6h
+
+Is return type of read_nucleus_point_group a string? ---> True
+The trexio.read_nucleus_point_group
function call returns a string D6h
, which is exactly what we provided in the previous section. Now, let’s read nuclear charges and labels.
nucleus_label from benzene_demo.h5 file
+---> ['C', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H']
+
+
+nucleus_charge from benzene_demo.h5 file
+---> [6. 6. 6. 6. 6. 6. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1.]
+The values are consistent with each other and with the previously written data. Not bad. What about the format of the output?
+ +nucleus_label return type: <class 'list'>
+This makes sense, isn’t it? We have written a list
of nuclear labels and have received back a list
of values from the file. What about nuclear charges?
nucleus_charge return type: <class 'numpy.ndarray'>
+Looks like trexio.read_nucleus_charge
function returns a numpy.ndarray
even though we have provided a python-ic list
to trexio.write_nucleus_charge
in the previous section. Why is it so? As has been mentioned before, TREXIO Python API internally relies on the use of the NumPy package to communicate arrays of float
-like or int
-like values. This prevents some memory leaks and grants additional flexibility to the API. What kind of flexibility? Check this out:
return dtype in NumPy notation: ---> float64
+It means that the default precision of the TREXIO output is double (np.float64
) for arrays of floating point numbers like nucleus_charge
. But what if you do not need this extra precision and would like to read nuclear charges in single (np.float32
) or even reduced (e.g. np.float16
) precision? TREXIO Python API provides an additional (optional) argument for this. This argument is called dtype
and accepts one of the NumPy data types. For example,
return dtype in NumPy notation: ---> float32
+So far, we have only read flat 1D arrays. However, we have also written a 2D array of nuclear coordinates. Let’s now read it back from the file:
+ + +nucleus_coord from benzene_demo.h5 TREXIO file:
+[[ 0. 1.39250319 0. ]
+ [-1.20594314 0.6962516 0. ]
+ [-1.20594314 -0.6962516 0. ]
+ [ 0. -1.39250319 0. ]
+ [ 1.20594314 -0.6962516 0. ]
+ [ 1.20594314 0.6962516 0. ]
+ [-2.14171677 1.23652075 0. ]
+ [-2.14171677 -1.23652075 0. ]
+ [ 0. -2.47304151 0. ]
+ [ 2.14171677 -1.23652075 0. ]
+ [ 2.14171677 1.23652075 0. ]
+ [ 0. 2.47304151 0. ]]
+
+return shape: ---> (12, 3)
+We can see that TREXIO returns a 2D array with 12 rows and 3 columns, which is consistent with the nucleus_coord
dimensions [nucleus_num, 3]
. What this means is that by default TREXIO reshapes the output flat array into a multidimensional one whenever applicable. This is done based on the shape specified in the TREX configuration file.
In some cases, it might be a good idea to explicitly check that the data exists in the file before reading it. This can be achieved using has_
-suffixed functions of the API. For example,
In this Tutorial, you have created a TREXIO file using HDF5 back end and have written the number of atoms, point group, nuclear charges, labels and coordinates, which correspond to benzene molecule. You have also learned how to read this data back from the TREXIO file and how to handle some TREXIO errors.

Back end has to be specified as well. - - -```python -demo_file_r = trexio.File(filename, mode='r', back_end=trexio.TREXIO_HDF5) -``` - -When reading data from the TREXIO file, the only required argument is a previously created instance of `trexio.File` class. In our case, it is `demo_file_r`. TREXIO functions with `read_` prefix return the desired variable as an output. For example, `nucleus_num` value can be read from the file as follows - - -```python -nucleus_num_r = trexio.read_nucleus_num(demo_file_r) -``` - - -```python -print(f"nucleus_num from {filename} file ---> {nucleus_num_r}") -``` - - nucleus_num from benzene_demo.h5 file ---> 12 - - -The function call assigns `nucleus_num_r` to 12, which is consistent with the number of atoms in benzene that we wrote in the previous section. - -All calls to functions that read data can be done in a very similar way. The key point here is a function name, which in turn defines the output format. Hopefully by now you got used to the TREXIO naming convention and the contents of the `nucleus` group. Which function would you call to read a `point_group` attribute of the `nucleus` group? What type does it return? See the answer below: - - -```python -point_group_r = trexio.read_nucleus_point_group(demo_file_r) -``` - - -```python -print(f"nucleus_point_group from {filename} TREXIO file ---> {point_group_r}\n") -print(f"Is return type of read_nucleus_point_group a string? ---> {isinstance(point_group_r, str)}") -``` - - nucleus_point_group from benzene_demo.h5 TREXIO file ---> D6h - - Is return type of read_nucleus_point_group a string? ---> True - - -The `trexio.read_nucleus_point_group` function call returns a string `D6h`, which is exactly what we provided in the previous section. Now, let's read nuclear charges and labels. - - -```python -labels_r = trexio.read_nucleus_label(demo_file_r) -``` - - -```python -print(f"nucleus_label from {filename} file \n---> {labels_r}") -``` - - nucleus_label from benzene_demo.h5 file - ---> ['C', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'C', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H', 'H'] - - - -```python -charges_r = trexio.read_nucleus_charge(demo_file_r) -``` - - -```python -print(f"nucleus_charge from {filename} file \n---> {charges_r}") -``` - - nucleus_charge from benzene_demo.h5 file - ---> [6. 6. 6. 6. 6. 6. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1.] - - -The values are consistent with each other and with the previously written data. Not bad. What about the format of the output? - - -```python -print(f"nucleus_label return type: {type(labels_r)}") -``` - - nucleus_label return type:
