python-common

This repository contains the common python files that are part of the NOMAD Laboratory. The official version lives at

git@gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de:nomad-lab/python-common.git

you can browse it at

https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/nomad-lab/python-common

Some things rely on having the nomad-meta-info checked out at the same level. The simplest way to have this is to check out nomad-lab-base recursively:

git clone --recursive git@gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de:nomad-lab/nomad-lab-base.git

then this will be in python-common within it.

Installation

The code is python>=2.7 and python>=3.4 compatible. First download and install this package:

git clone https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/nomad-lab/python-common.git
cd python-common
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

Then download the metainfo definitions to the same folder where the 'python-common' repository was cloned:

git clone https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/nomad-lab/nomad-meta-info.git
