computron / fireworks-vasp_demo.py
Created November 9, 2014 06:09
basic demo of using the fireworks-vasp codebase
from fireworks import Firework
from fireworks.core.firework import Workflow
from fireworks_vasp.tasks import WriteVaspInputTask, VaspCustodianTask, VaspAnalyzeTask
from pymatgen.matproj.rest import MPRester
"""
This demo shows how one can use the fireworks-vasp codebase. It runs only a single VASP job.
To run multiple VASP jobs in a workflow, one needs to pass the directory information between
jobs such that input files can be copied.

Create VASP inputs for an MP structure
"""
This example prints out VASP inputs for an MP structure.
To run this example, you should:
* have pymatgen (www.pymatgen.org) installed
* obtain a Materials Project API key (https://www.materialsproject.org/open)
* paste that API key in the MAPI_KEY variable below, e.g. MAPI_KEY = "foobar1234"

Print structures from Materials Project
"""
This example prints out structure(s) by MP id, by formula, or by chemical system
To run this example, you should:
* have pymatgen (www.pymatgen.org) installed
* obtain a Materials Project API key (https://www.materialsproject.org/open)
* paste that API key in the MAPI_KEY variable below, e.g. MAPI_KEY = "foobar1234"

"""
This example prints out a band structure object of a Materials Project entry.
To run this example, you should:
* have pymatgen (www.pymatgen.org) installed

Print all corrections applied on a Materials Project entry
"""
This example prints out the corrections applied by a Compatibility scheme
(e.g., MaterialsProjectCompatibility) in order to improve the accuracy of reaction energies
and phase diagrams.
To run this example, you should:
* have pymatgen (www.pymatgen.org) installed
* obtain a Materials Project API key (https://www.materialsproject.org/open)

Check a new material's stability using the pymatgen codebase and Materials Project database
"""
This is a basic example of how to check a new material for stability using the pymatgen
codebase and Materials Project database. It assumes that you have already calculated
the energy of your predicted compound with DFT.
It is very important to note that this code does NOT do a detailed check to make sure
your computed energies are compatible with those in the Materials Project database
(i.e., uses the same functional, +U corrections, k-point mesh, etc). You must ensure
that the energies you provide are directly comparable with those in Materials Project,
otherwise this code will give you false results!

"""
This is a basic example of how to create, plot, and analyze OPEN Phase Diagrams using the pymatgen
codebase and Materials Project database. To run this example, you should:
* have pymatgen (www.pymatgen.org) installed along with matplotlib
* obtain a Materials Project API key (https://www.materialsproject.org/open)
* paste that API key in the MAPI_KEY variable below, e.g. MAPI_KEY = "foobar1234"
