- class COD[source]
Bases:
objectAn interface to the Crystallography Open Database.
Blank __init__. No args required.
- get_cod_ids(formula)[source]
Queries the COD for all cod ids associated with a formula. Requires mysql executable to be in the path.
- Parameters:
formula (str) – Formula.
- Returns:
List of cod ids.
- get_structure_by_formula(formula: str, **kwargs) list[dict[str, str | int | Structure]][source]
Queries the COD for structures by formula. Requires mysql executable to be in the path.
- Parameters:
formula (str) – Chemical formula.
kwargs – All kwargs supported by
pymatgen.core.structure.Structure.from_str().
- Returns:
Structure, “cod_id”: int, “sg”: “P n m a”}]
- Return type:
A list of dict of the format [{“structure”
