Third release of 2022, many new features and fixes
This is the third release of gpaw-tools
in 2022. The most important feature which is added in this release is the successful implementation of HSE06 calculations. Users can continue with the new example called "Si-with-HSE". In this release, we added 4 new keywords: Fix_symmetry
, Ground_convergence
, Band_convergence
and Occupation
. Also, there are many small fixes and features are added.
We are also kindly asking you to help us with your issues and pull requests. We have only one rule, try to keep it simple for broad-spectrum users.
Thank you for trying and helping to gpaw-tools
to make it better.
Release notes
- Successful HSE03, HSE06 calculations for ground state, DOS and band structure.
- New example for HSE06 calculations:
Si-with-HSE
. - Colorize errors, warnings, and information output with ANSI codes.
- Proper error handling for restart mode "file not found" error.
- No need to import ASE object inside optimization scripts. Optimizations are working with CIF files only.
- New keyword
Fix_symmetry
added togpawsolve.py
,gg.py
for preserving the spacegroup symmetry during optimization. - Small changes in the
gg.py
gpawsolve.py
now prints previous and final spacegroup information and usable special points information for band structure calculations.-v
argument now shows version information of gpaw-tools, and used GPAW, and ASE. It gives more choice for possible tarball and zipball packages. Also, it does not give an error in case of no internet connection available.- 3 new keywords
Ground_convergence
,Band_convergence
andOccupation
are added togpawsolve.py
,gg.py
and examples. - Fix
do_all_examples.sh
Bash script. - Optimization scripts do not need ASE object insertion. They can run with using CIF file as an argument.
- RawPDOS, which gives PDOS over orbitals, is added.
- For band calculations, the result file in JSON format is added. This file can be opened with
ase band-structure
command.
