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. The current list of aliases is:
aflow, cod, mcloud.sssp, mcloud.2dstructures, mcloud.2dtopo, mcloud.tc-applicability, mcloud.threedd, mcloud.scdm, mcloud.curated-cofs, mcloud.optimade-sample, mcloud.stoceriaitf, mcloud.pyrene-mofs, mcloud.li-ion-conductors, mp, odbx, omdb.omdb_production, oqmd, tcod
To refresh this list of aliases, generated from the current list of OPTIMADE providers at optimade.org, call the refresh_aliases() method.
- 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) –

URL (information from the specified resource) –
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) –

- describe()[source]
Provides human-readable information about the resources being searched by the OptimadeRester.
- get_snls(elements: list[str] | str | None = None, nelements: int = None, nsites: int = None, chemical_formula_anonymous: str = None, chemical_formula_hill: str = None, additional_response_fields: str | list[str] | set[str] | None = None) dict[str, dict[str, StructureNL]][source]
Retrieve StructureNL from OPTIMADE providers.
A StructureNL is an object provided by pymatgen which combines Structure with associated metadata, such as the URL is was downloaded from and any additional namespaced data.
Not all functionality of OPTIMADE is currently exposed in this convenience method. To use a custom filter, call get_structures_with_filter().
- Parameters
elements – List of elements
nelements – Number of elements, e.g. 4 or [2, 5] for the range >=2 and <=5
nsites – Number of sites, e.g. 4 or [2, 5] for the range >=2 and <=5
chemical_formula_anonymous – Anonymous chemical formula
chemical_formula_hill – Chemical formula following Hill convention
additional_response_fields – Any additional fields desired from the OPTIMADE API,
dictionary. (these will be stored under the '_optimade' key in each StructureNL.data) –
Returns: Dict of (Dict of StructureNLs keyed by that database’s id system) keyed by provider
- get_snls_with_filter(optimade_filter: str, additional_response_fields: str | list[str] | set[str] | None = None) dict[str, dict[str, StructureNL]][source]
Get structures satisfying a given OPTIMADE filter.
- Parameters
filter – An OPTIMADE-compliant filter
Returns: Dict of Structures keyed by that database’s id system
- get_structures(elements: list[str] | str | None = None, nelements: int = None, nsites: int = None, chemical_formula_anonymous: str = None, chemical_formula_hill: str = None) dict[str, dict[str, Structure]][source]
