pymatgen.ext.matproj module
This module provides classes to interface with the Materials Project REST API v2 to enable the creation of data structures and pymatgen objects using Materials Project data.
To make use of the Materials API, you need to be a registered user of the Materials Project, and obtain an API key by going to your dashboard at https://materialsproject.org/dashboard.
- exception MPRestError[source]
Bases:
ExceptionException class for legacy MPRestAdaptor. Raised when query is malformed.
- class MPRester(api_key: str | None = None, include_user_agent: bool = True)[source]
Bases:
objectPymatgen’s implementation of MPRester. Unlike mp-api, this implementation mirrors the exact MP-API end points without modification. You just need to refer to https://api.materialsproject.org/docs and use the field names exactly. No need to deal with strange renames of various fields. Featurity parity is close to 100% with mp-api.
Furthermore, we support both the mp-api as well as a simplified syntax. E.g., to query for a summary, you can use mpr.summary.search(material_ids=”mp-1234”) or mpr.materials.summary.search(material_ids=”mp-1234”).
If you are a power user that requires some esoteric feature not covered, feel free to install the mp-api package. All issues regarding that implementation should be directed to the maintainers of that repository and not pymatgen. We will support only issues pertaining to our implementation only.
- Parameters:
api_key (str) – A String API key for accessing the MaterialsProject REST interface. Please obtain your API key at https://www.materialsproject.org/dashboard. If this is None, the code will check if there is a “PMG_MAPI_KEY” setting. If so, it will use that environment variable. This makes easier for heavy users to simply add this environment variable to their setups and MPRester can then be called without any arguments.
include_user_agent (bool) – If True, will include a user agent with the HTTP request including information on pymatgen and system version making the API request. This helps MP support pymatgen users, and is similar to what most web browsers send with each page request. Set to False to disable the user agent.

Helper method to make the requests and perform decoding based on MSONable protocol.
- search(doc, **kwargs) list[dict][source]
Queries a Materials PI end point doc. A notable difference with the mp-api’s implementation is that this uses the web API to do searches. So the keywords follow the actual API spec, which is as it should be. For instance, number of sites is nsites and number of elements is nelements. The mp-api package has this weird renaming that maps num_elements to nelements and num_sites to nsites.
Parameters: - **kwargs: keyword arguments for filtering materials. Fields that do not start with underscores are filters, while those that start with underscores are fields to retrieve. Possible filters include:
_fields (optional): list of fields to retrieve for each material
Other parameters: filter criteria, where each parameter key corresponds to the field to filter and the parameter value corresponds to the filter value
Returns: - list of dictionaries, each dictionary representing a material retrieved based on the filtering criteria
- summary_search(**kwargs) list[dict][source]
Mirrors mp-api’s mpr.materials.summary.search functionality. Searches for materials based on the specified criteria. A notable difference with the mp-api’s implementation is that this uses the web API to do searches. So the keywords follow the actual API spec, which is as it should be. For instance, number of sites is nsites and number of elements is nelements. The mp-api package has this weird renaming that maps num_elements to nelements and num_sites to nsites.
Parameters: - **kwargs: keyword arguments for filtering materials. Fields that do not start with underscores are filters, while those that start with underscores are fields to retrieve. Possible filters include:

Other parameters: filter criteria, where each parameter key corresponds to the field to filter and the parameter value corresponds to the filter value
Returns: - list of dictionaries, each dictionary representing a material retrieved based on the filtering criteria
pymatgen.ext.optimade module
Optimade support.
- class OptimadeRester(aliases_or_resource_urls: str | list[str] | None = None, refresh_aliases: bool = False, timeout: int = 5)[source]
Bases:
objectCall OPTIMADE-compliant APIs, see https://optimade.org and [1].
This class is ready to use but considered in-development and subject to change.
Please also consider using the client in “OPTIMADE Python tools”:
https://www.optimade.org/optimade-python-tools/latest/getting_started/client/
The “OPTIMADE Python tools” client is less integrated with pymatgen, but more actively developed for the latest OPTIMADE features.

OPTIMADE, an API for exchanging materials data. Sci Data 8, 217 (2021). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-021-00974-z
OPTIMADE is an effort to provide a standardized interface to retrieve information from many different materials science databases.
This is a client to retrieve structures from OPTIMADE v1 compliant endpoints. It does not yet support all features of the OPTIMADE v1 specification but is intended as a way to quickly search an endpoint in a way familiar to users of pymatgen without needing to know the full OPTIMADE specification.
For advanced usage, please see the OPTIMADE documentation at optimade.org and consider calling the APIs directly.
For convenience, known OPTIMADE endpoints have been given aliases in pymatgen to save typing the full URL.
To get an up-to-date list aliases, generated from the current list of OPTIMADE providers at optimade.org, call the refresh_aliases() method or pass refresh_aliases=True when creating instances of this class.
- Parameters:
aliases_or_resource_urls – the alias or structure resource URL or a list of
URLs (aliases or resource)
not (if providing the resource URL directly it should)
index (be an)
"v1/structures" (this interface can only currently access the)
URL (information from the specified resource)
refresh_aliases – if True, use an up-to-date list of providers/aliases from the live
https (list of OPTIMADE providers hosted at) – //providers.optimade.org.
timeout – number of seconds before an attempted request is abandoned, a good
providers (timeout is useful when querying many)
offline (some of which may be)
