diffpy.srreal.atomradiitable module

class AtomRadiiTable – storage of empirical atom radii.

class diffpy.srreal.atomradiitable.AtomRadiiTable

Bases: Boost.Python.instance

Base class for looking up empirical atom radii. This class has virtual methods and cannot be used as is.

Return a new instance that is a copy of self.

This method must be overloaded in a derived class.

C++ signature :
boost::shared_ptr<diffpy::srreal::AtomRadiiTable> clone(diffpy::srreal::AtomRadiiTable {lvalue})
create((AtomRadiiTable)arg1) → AtomRadiiTable :

Return a new instance of the same type as self.

This method must be overloaded in a derived class.

C++ signature :
boost::shared_ptr<diffpy::srreal::AtomRadiiTable> create(diffpy::srreal::AtomRadiiTable {lvalue})
static createByType((str)tp) → AtomRadiiTable :

Return a new AtomRadiiTable instance of the specified string type.

class StructureAdapter – adapter of any structure object to the interface
expected by srreal PairQuantity calculators

Routines:

createStructureAdapter – create StructureAdapter from a Python object nometa – create StructureAdapter with disabled _customPQConfig method

this prevents copying of diffpy.structure pdffit metadata to PDFCalculator object

nosymmetry – create StructureAdapter with disabled symmetry expansion.

Constants:

diffpy.srreal.structureadapter.RegisterStructureAdapter(fqname, fnc=None)

Function decorator that marks it as a converter of specified object type to StructureAdapter class in diffpy.srreal. The registered structure object types can be afterwards directly used with calculators in diffpy.srreal as they would be implicitly converted to the internal diffpy.srreal structure type.

fqname – fully qualified class name for the convertible objects.
This is the quoted string included in “str(type(obj))”. The converter function would be called for object of the same or derived types.

fnc – function that converts the fqname type to StructureAdapter.

Note: When fnc is None RegisterStructureAdapter works as a decorator and the conversion function can be specified below, i.e.,

@RegisterStructureAdapter(‘my.structure.Type’) def convertMyStructure(stru):

See diffpy.srreal.structureconverters module for usage example.

diffpy.srreal.structureadapter.createStructureAdapter(stru)

Create StructureAdapter from a Python object.

a registered factory that converts Python structure object to StructureAdapter. Return stru if already a StructureAdapter.

Return a StructureAdapter instance. Raise TypeError if stru cannot be converted to StructureAdapter.
