Calls read_geometry and creates a GeometryPlot from its output.

Parameters:
  • ret_velocity (bool, optional) – also return the velocities in the file, if not present, it will return a 0 array

  • ret_moment (bool, optional) – also return the moments specified in the file, if not present, it will return a 0 array

  • axes – The axes to project the geometry to.

  • atoms – The atoms to plot. If None, all atoms are plotted.

  • atoms_style – List of style specifications for the atoms. See the showcase notebooks for examples.

  • atoms_scale – Scaling factor for the size of all atoms.

  • atoms_colorscale – Colorscale to use for the atoms in case the color attribute is an array of values. If None, the default colorscale is used for each backend.

  • drawing_mode – The method used to draw the atoms.

  • bind_bonds_to_ats – Whether to display only bonds between atoms that are being displayed.

  • points_per_bond – When the points are drawn using points instead of lines (e.g. in some frameworks to draw multicolor bonds), the number of points used per bond.

  • bonds_style – Style specification for the bonds. See the showcase notebooks for examples.

  • bonds_scale – Scaling factor for the width of all bonds.

  • bonds_colorscale – Colorscale to use for the bonds in case the color attribute is an array of values. If None, the default colorscale is used for each backend.

  • show_atoms – Whether to display the atoms.

  • show_bonds – Whether to display the bonds.

  • show_cell – Mode to display the cell. If False, the cell is not displayed.

  • cell_style – Style specification for the cell. See the showcase notebooks for examples.

  • nsc – Number of unit cells to display in each direction.

  • atoms_ndim_scale – Scaling factor for the size of the atoms for different dimensionalities (1D, 2D, 3D).

  • bonds_ndim_scale – Scaling factor for the width of the bonds for different dimensionalities (1D, 2D, 3D).

  • dataaxis_1d – Only meaningful for 1D plots. The data to plot on the Y axis.

  • arrows – List of arrow specifications to display. See the showcase notebooks for examples.

  • backend – The backend to use to generate the figure.

read(*args, **kwargs)

Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters:

Reads Geometry object from the file

Parameters:
  • ret_velocity (bool, optional) – also return the velocities in the file, if not present, it will return a 0 array

  • ret_moment (bool, optional) – also return the moments specified in the file, if not present, it will return a 0 array

Returns:

  • geometry (Geometry) – geometry found in file

  • velocity (numpy.ndarray) – array of velocities in Ang/ps for each atom, will only be returned if ret_velocity is true

  • moment (numpy.ndarray) – array of initial moments of each atom, will only be returned if ret_moment is true
