# TREXIO
|
||
|
||
[](https://github.com/TREX-CoE/trexio/actions/workflows/actions.yml)
|
||
|
||
|
||
TREX library for efficient I/O.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Minimal requirements (for users):
|
||
|
||
- Autotools (autoconf >= 2.69, automake >= 1.11, libtool >= 2.2)
|
||
- C compiler (gcc/icc/clang)
|
||
- Fortran compiler (gfortran/ifort)
|
||
- HDF5 library (>= 1.8)
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Installation procedure from the tarball (for users):
|
||
|
||
1. Download the `trexio-<version>.tar.gz` file
|
||
2. `gzip -cd trexio-<version>.tar.gz | tar xvf -`
|
||
3. `cd trexio-<version>`
|
||
4. `./configure --enable-silent-rules`
|
||
5. `make`
|
||
6. `make check`
|
||
7. `sudo make install`
|
||
|
||
|
||
**Note: on systems with no `sudo` access, one can replace `./configure` with `./configure prefix=${PWD}/_install` in order to execute `make install/uninstall` commands without `sudo` privileges.**
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Additional requirements (for developers):
|
||
|
||
- python3 (>= 3.6)
|
||
- Emacs (>= 26.0)
|
||
- SWIG (>= 4.0)
|
||
|
||
## Installation procedure from the GitHub repo clone (for developers):
|
||
|
||
1. `git clone https://github.com/TREX-CoE/trexio.git`
|
||
2. `cd trexio`
|
||
3. `./autogen.sh`
|
||
4. `TREXIO_DEVEL=1 ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode`
|
||
5. `make`
|
||
6. `make check`
|
||
7. `sudo make install`
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Naming convention
|
||
|
||
The primary TREXIO API is composed of the following functions:
|
||
|
||
- `trexio_open`
|
||
- `trexio_write_[group]_[variable]`
|
||
- `trexio_read_[group]_[variable]`
|
||
- `trexio_has_[group]_[variable]`
|
||
- `trexio_close`
|
||
|
||
where `[group]` and `[variable]` substitutions correspond to the contents of the `trex.json` configuration file
|
||
(for more details, see the corresponding [documentation](https://trex-coe.github.io/trexio/trex.html) page).
|
||
For example, consider the `coord` variable (array), which belongs to the `nucleus` group. The TREXIO user can write or read it using `trexio_write_nucleus_coord` or `trexio_read_nucleus_coord` functions, respectively.
|
||
|
||
Note: the `[variable]` names have to be unique only within the corresponding parent `[group]`.
|
||
There is no naming conflict when, for example, `num` variable exists both in the `nucleus` group (i.e. the number of nuclei) and in the `mo` group (i.e. the number of molecular orbitals).
|
||
These quantities can be accessed using the corresponding `trexio_[has|read|write]_nucleus_num` and `trexio_[has|read|write]_mo_num`, respectively.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Python API
|
||
|
||
For more details regarding the installation and usage of the TREXIO Python API,
|
||
see [this page](python/README.md).
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Tutorial
|
||
|
||
TREXIO tutorials in Jupyter notebook format can be found in the
|
||
[corresponding GitHub repository](https://github.com/TREX-CoE/trexio-tutorials)
|
||
or on [Binder](https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/TREX-CoE/trexio-tutorials/HEAD).
|
||
|
||
For example, the tutorial covering TREXIO basics using benzene molecule as an example can be viewed and executed online by clicking on this badge:

|
||
### Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
Note: The code should be compliant with the C99
|
||
[CERT C coding standard](https://resources.sei.cmu.edu/downloads/secure-coding/assets/sei-cert-c-coding-standard-2016-v01.pdf).
|
||
This can be checked with the `cppcheck` tool.
