Fully validating pure-python CP2K input file parsers including preprocessing capabilities

Available commands (also available through an API, see below):

  • cp2klint .. a CP2K input file linter
  • fromcp2k .. create a JSON/YAML configuration file or an AiiDA run script from a CP2K input file (includes validation)
  • tocp2k .. convert a JSON or YAML configuration back to CP2K's input file format (includes validation)
  • cp2kgen .. generate new input files based on a given input file and expressions to change parameters programmatically
  • cp2kget .. get values from a CP2K input file (most likely a restart file) given a path of sections and attribute
  • cp2k-language-server .. a Language Server Protocol implementation for the CP2K input file format
  • cp2k-datafile-lint .. linters for other CP2K-related data file formats (like pseudos and basissets)

For a description of the JSON/YAML formats used, see below.

Requirements

For development: https://poetry.eustace.io/ https://pytest.org/

Idea

  • have a pure-python CP2K input file linter with proper syntax error reporting (context, etc.)
  • a final & complete restart file parser
  • basis for an AiiDA CP2K project importer
  • testbed for alternative import formats (YAML, JSON) for CP2K
  • possible testbed for a re-implementation of the CP2K input parser itself

TODOs

  • parser: improve error reporting with context
  • preprocessor: don't lose original context when interpolating variables
  • parser: parsing the XML is slow (easily 70% of the time), pickle or generate Python code directly instead and keep XML parsing as fallback
  • parser: preserve comments when going to/from YAML

Usage

Installation

You will get most tools using simply:

$ pip install cp2k-input-tools

For YAML support you should use

$ pip install cp2k-input-tools[yaml]

and for the Language Server:

$ pip install cp2k-input-tools[lsp]

Command Line Interface

Generate JSON, YAML or aiida-cp2k run script from a CP2K input file:

$ fromcp2k --help
usage: fromcp2k [-h] [-y] [-c] [-b BASE_DIR] [-t TRAFO] <file>

Convert CP2K input to JSON (default) or YAML

positional arguments:
  <file>                CP2K input file

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -y, --yaml            output yaml instead of json

force_eval/subsys/cell/a/0: 5.64123539364476

API

Convert a CP2K input file to a nested Python dictionary:

from cp2k_input_tools.parser import CP2KInputParser, CP2KInputParserSimplified

canonical = False

if canonical:
    parser = CP2KInputParser()
else:
    parser = CP2KInputParserSimplified()

with open("project.inp") as fhandle:
    tree = parser.parse(fhandle)

Convert a nested Python dictionary back to a CP2K input file:

from cp2k_input_tools.generator import CP2KInputGenerator

generator = CP2KInputGenerator()

tree = {"global": {}}  # ... the input tree

with open("project.inp", "w") as fhandle:
    for line in generator.line_iter(tree):
        fhandle.write(f"{line}\n")

Language Server Protocol

The executable providing the language server is: cp2k-language-server

For vim you need a plugin to be able to use language servers. One such plugin is ALE for which you can create in its directory the file ale_linters/cp2k/language_server.vim with the content

call ale#Set('cp2k_lsp_executable', 'cp2k-language-server')

function! ale_linters#cp2k#language_server#GetProjectRoot(buffer) abort
    let l:git_path = ale#path#FindNearestDirectory(a:buffer, '.git')

    return !empty(l:git_path) ? fnamemodify(l:git_path, ':h:h') : ''
endfunction

call ale#linter#Define('cp2k', {
\   'name': 'language_server',
\   'lsp': 'stdio',
\   'executable': {b -> ale#Var(b, 'cp2k_lsp_executable')},
\   'project_root': function('ale_linters#cp2k#language_server#GetProjectRoot'),
\   'command': '%e',
\})

Afterwards you must set the filetype when editing a CP2K input file to cp2k to get it running. This can be done explicitly using :set filetype=cp2k.

The CP2K JSON and YAML formats

A reference to the CP2K input format can be found here: https://manual.cp2k.org/

Canonical format

For everything except the pre-processor capabilities (@IF/@ENDIF/$var/@SET) there is a canonical one-to-one mapping of the CP2K input format to either JSON or YAML:

  • repeatable sections are mapped to dictionaries
  • keywords or subsections are key/value entries in sections
  • all repeatable elements (sections and keywords) are mapped to lists of their respective mapped datatype
  • section parameters are mapped to a special key named _
  • default section keywords are mapped to a special key name *
  • sections in JSON or YAML must be prefixed to avoid double definition of a key in case of same name for a section and a keyword (like the POTENTIAL in KIND), to avoid quotation marks, instead of CP2K's & we are using the +
  • keyword values are mapped based on their datatypes: a list of values is always mapped to a list of their respective datatypes

The following example input:

&GLOBAL
   PRINT_LEVEL MEDIUM
   PROJECT test
   RUN_TYPE ENERGY
&END GLOBAL
&FORCE_EVAL
   METHOD Quickstep
   &DFT
      BASIS_SET_FILE_NAME "./BASIS_SETS"
      POTENTIAL_FILE_NAME ./POTENTIALS
      &XC
         &XC_FUNCTIONAL PBE
         &END XC_FUNCTIONAL
      &END XC
   &END DFT
   &SUBSYS
      &CELL
         A [angstrom] 4.07419 0.0 0.0
         B [angstrom] 2.037095 3.52835204 0.0
         C [angstrom] 2.037095 1.17611735 3.32656221
         PERIODIC XYZ
      &END CELL
      &KIND Ge
         ELEMENT Ge
         POTENTIAL ALL-q32
         BASIS_SET ORB pob-TZVP
      &END KIND
      &TOPOLOGY
         COORD_FILE ./struct.xyz
         COORD_FILE_FORMAT XYZ
      &END TOPOLOGY
   &END SUBSYS
&END FORCE_EVAL

would generate the (canonical) JSON:

{
  "+global": {
    "print_level": "medium",
    "project_name": "test",
    "run_type": "energy"
  },
  "+force_eval": [
    {
      "method": "quickstep",
      "+DFT": {
        "basis_set_file_name": [
          "./BASIS_SETS"
        ],
        "potential_file_name": "./POTENTIALS"
      },
      "+XC": {
        "+xc_functional": {
          "_": "PBE"
        }
      },
      "+subsys": {
        "cell": {
          "A": [ 4.07419, 0, 0 ],
          "B": [ 2.037095, 3.52835204, 0 ],
          "C": [ 2.037095, 1.17611735, 3.32656221 ],
          "periodic": "XYZ"
        },
        "+kind": [
          {
            "_": "Ge",
            "element": "Ge",
            "potential": "ALL-q32",
            "basis_set": [
              [ "ORB", "pob-TZVP" ]
            ]

          ],
        "+topology": {
          "coord_file_name": "./struct.xyz",
          "coord_file_format": "XYZ"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Caveats:

  • the full input format needs be known and is being loaded from a bundled cp2k_input.xml
  • the YAML/JSON is quiet verbose and one has to know exactly which keywords can be repeated

While there is no solution to remedy the first caveat, the second can be solved with the simplified output format

Simplified format

Still based on the canonical format the simplified format relaxes some of the rules

  1. a section must only be prefixed with a + if a keyword with the same name is present at the same time in the same section (since we can figure out whether the user wanted to specify the section or the keyword by inspecting the value for the key: dict for a section)
  2. if a repeated keyword or section contains only one entry, the list can be omitted (in case of ambiguity priority is given to multiple values per keyword rather than keyword repetition)
  3. sections with default parameters can be formulated as dictionaries, as long as the default parameter values are unique and do not match section keyword or subsection names

the example from before in the simplified format:

{
  "global": {
    "print_level": "medium",
    "project_name": "test",
    "run_type": "energy"
  },
  "force_eval": {
    "method": "quickstep",
    "DFT": {
      "basis_set_file_name": "./BASIS_SETS",
      "potential_file_name": "./POTENTIALS"
    },
    "xc": {
      "xc_functional": {
        "_": "PBE"
      }
    },
    "subsys": {
      "cell": {
        "A": [ 4.07419, 0, 0 ],
        "B": [ 2.037095, 3.52835204, 0 ],
        "C": [ 2.037095, 1.17611735, 3.32656221 ],
        "periodic": "XYZ"
      },
      "kind": {
        "_": "Ge",
        "element": "Ge",
        "potential": "ALL-q32",
        "basis_set": [ "ORB", "pob-TZVP" ]
      },
      "topology": {
        "coord_file_name": "./struct.xyz",
        "coord_file_format": "XYZ"
      }
    }
  }
}

or in YAML (with simplification rule #3 applied):

global:
  print_level: medium

    basis_set_file_name: ./BASIS_SETS
