ChargeIncrementModelHandler

class openff.toolkit.typing.engines.smirnoff.parameters.ChargeIncrementModelHandler(allow_cosmetic_attributes=False, skip_version_check=False, **kwargs)[source]

Handle SMIRNOFF <ChargeIncrementModel> tags

Warning

This API is experimental and subject to change.

__init__(allow_cosmetic_attributes=False, skip_version_check=False, **kwargs)

Initialize a ParameterHandler, optionally with a list of parameters and other kwargs.

Parameters:
  • allow_cosmetic_attributes – Whether to permit non-spec kwargs. If True, non-spec kwargs will be stored as attributes of this object and can be accessed and modified. Otherwise an exception will be raised if a non-spec kwarg is encountered.

  • skip_version_check (bool, optional. Default = False) – If False, the SMIRNOFF section version will not be checked, and the ParameterHandler will be initialized with version set to _MAX_SUPPORTED_SECTION_VERSION.

  • **kwargs – The dict representation of the SMIRNOFF data source

add_cosmetic_attribute(attr_name, attr_value)

Add a cosmetic attribute to this object.

This attribute will not have a functional effect on the object in the OpenFF Toolkit, but can be written out during output.

Warning

The API for modifying cosmetic attributes is experimental and may change in the future (see issue #338).

Parameters:
  • attr_name – Name of the attribute to define for this object.

  • attr_value – The value of the attribute to define for this object.

add_parameter(parameter_kwargs: dict | None = None, parameter: ParameterType | None = None, after: str | None = None, before: str | None = None, allow_duplicate_smirks: bool = False)

Add a parameter to the force field, ensuring all parameters are valid.

Parameters:
  • parameter_kwargs – The kwargs to pass to the ParameterHandler.INFOTYPE (a ParameterType) constructor

  • parameter – A ParameterType to add to the ParameterHandler

  • after – The SMIRKS pattern (if str) or index (if int) of the parameter directly before where the new parameter will be added

  • before – The SMIRKS pattern (if str) or index (if int) of the parameter directly after where the new parameter will be added

  • allow_duplicate_smirks – If False, a DuplicateParameterError will be raised if the parameter being added has a SMIRKS that already appears in another parameter owned by this ParameterHandler.

  • behavior (Note the following) –

    • Either parameter_kwargs or parameter must be specified.

    • When before and after are both None, the new parameter will be appended to the END of the parameter list.

    • When before and after are both specified, the new parameter will be added immediately after the parameter matching the after pattern or index.

    • The order of parameters in a parameter list can have significant impacts on parameter assignment. For details, see the SMIRNOFF specification: https://openforcefield.github.io/standards/standards/smirnoff/#smirnoff-parameter-specification-is-hierarchical

Examples

Add a ParameterType to an existing ParameterList at a specified position.

Given an existing parameter handler and a new parameter to add to it:

>>> from openff.toolkit import unit
>>> bh = BondHandler(skip_version_check=True)
>>> length = 1.5 * unit.angstrom
>>> k = 100 * unit.kilocalorie / unit.mole / unit.angstrom ** 2
>>> bh.add_parameter({'smirks': '[*:1]-[*:2]', 'length': length, 'k': k, 'id': 'b1'})
>>> bh.add_parameter({'smirks': '[*:1]=[*:2]', 'length': length, 'k': k, 'id': 'b2'})
>>> bh.add_parameter({'smirks': '[*:1]#[*:2]', 'length': length, 'k': k, 'id': 'b3'})
>>> [p.id for p in bh.parameters]
['b1', 'b2', 'b3']
>>> param = {'smirks': '[#1:1]-[#6:2]', 'length': length, 'k': k, 'id': 'b4'}

Add a new parameter immediately after the parameter with the smirks ‘[:1]=[:2]’

>>> bh.add_parameter(param, after='[*:1]=[*:2]')
>>> [p.id for p in bh.parameters]
['b1', 'b2', 'b4', 'b3']

get_parameter(parameter_attrs)

Return the parameters in this ParameterHandler that match the parameter_attrs argument. When multiple attrs are passed, parameters that have any (not all) matching attributes are returned.

Returns:

Examples

Create a parameter handler and populate it with some data.

>>> from openff.toolkit import unit
>>> handler = BondHandler(skip_version_check=True)
>>> handler.add_parameter(
...     {
...         'smirks': '[*:1]-[*:2]',
...         'length': 1*unit.angstrom,
...         'k': 10*unit.kilocalorie / unit.mole/unit.angstrom**2,
...     }
... )

Look up, from this handler, all parameters matching some SMIRKS pattern

>>> handler.get_parameter({'smirks': '[*:1]-[*:2]'})
