A package for atom-typing as well as applying and disseminating force fields
Annotate an OpenMM .xml force field file with SMARTS-based atomtypes:
<ForceField>
<AtomTypes>
<Type name="opls_135" class="CT" element="C" mass="12.01100" def="[C;X4](C)(H)(H)H" desc="alkane CH3"/>
<Type name="opls_140" class="HC" element="H" mass="1.00800" def="H[C;X4]" desc="alkane H"/>
</AtomTypes>
</ForceField>Apply the forcefield to arbitrary chemical topologies. We currently support:
from foyer import Forcefield
import parmed as pmd
untyped_ethane = pmd.load_file('ethane.mol2', structure=True)
oplsaa = Forcefield(forcefield_files='oplsaa.xml')
ethane = oplsaa.apply(untyped_ethane)
# Save to any format supported by ParmEd
ethane.save('ethane.top')
ethane.save('ethane.gro')Check out our example template for disseminating force fields: https://github.com/mosdef-hub/forcefield_template
