allow_merging

Input - Defines whether this protocols is allowed to merge with other protocols. The default value of this attribute is True.

Type: bool

apply_replicator(replicator, template_values, template_index=- 1, template_value=None, update_input_references=False)

Applies a ProtocolReplicator to this protocol. This method should clone any protocols whose id contains the id of the replicator (in the format $(replicator.id)).

Parameters

replicator (ProtocolReplicator) – The replicator to apply.
template_values (list of Any) –
A list of the values which will be inserted into the newly replicated protocols.

This parameter is mutually exclusive with template_index and template_value
template_index (int, optional) –
A specific value which should be used for any protocols flagged as to be replicated by the replicator. This option is mainly used when replicating children of an already replicated protocol.

This parameter is mutually exclusive with template_values and must be set along with a template_value.
template_value (Any, optional) –
A specific index which should be used for any protocols flagged as to be replicated by the replicator. This option is mainly used when replicating children of an already replicated protocol.

This parameter is mutually exclusive with template_values and must be set along with a template_index.
update_input_references (bool) –
If true, any protocols which take their input from a protocol which was flagged for replication will be updated to take input from the actually replicated protocol. This should only be set to true if this protocol is not nested within a workflow or a protocol group.

This option cannot be used when a specific template_index or template_value is providied.

Returns

A dictionary of references to all of the protocols which have been replicated, with keys of original protocol ids. Each value is comprised of a list of the replicated protocol ids, and their index into the template_values array.

Return type

dict of ProtocolPath and list of tuple of ProtocolPath and int

can_merge(other, path_replacements=None)

Determines whether this protocol can be merged with another.

Parameters

other (Protocol) – The protocol to compare against.
path_replacements (list of tuple of str, optional) – Replacements to make in any value reference protocol paths before comparing for equality.

Returns

True if the two protocols are safe to merge.

Return type

bool

property dependencies

A list of pointers to the protocols which this protocol takes input from.

Type: list of ProtocolPath

enable_pbc

Input - If true, periodic boundary conditions will be enabled. The default value of this attribute is True.

Type: bool

execute(directory='', available_resources=None)

Execute the protocol.

Parameters

directory (str) – The directory to store output data in.
available_resources (ComputeResources) – The resources available to execute on. If None, the protocol will be executed on a single CPU.

classmethod from_json(file_path)

Create this object from a JSON file.

Parameters: file_path (str) – The path to load the JSON from.
Returns: The parsed class.
Return type: cls

classmethod from_schema(schema)
