mp_api.client.routes.materials.electronic_structure.BandStructureRester

class mp_api.client.routes.materials.electronic_structure.BandStructureRester(api_key: str | None = None, endpoint: str = 'https://api.materialsproject.org/', include_user_agent: bool = True, session: requests.Session | None = None, s3_resource: Any | None = None, debug: bool = False, monty_decode: bool = True, use_document_model: bool = True, timeout: int = 20, headers: dict = None, mute_progress_bars: bool = False)

Bases: BaseRester

Args: api_key (str): A String API key for accessing the MaterialsProject REST interface. Please obtain your API key at https://www.materialsproject.org/dashboard. If this is None, the code will check if there is a “PMG_MAPI_KEY” setting. If so, it will use that environment variable. This makes easier for heavy users to simply add this environment variable to their setups and MPRester can then be called without any arguments. endpoint (str): Url of endpoint to access the MaterialsProject REST interface. Defaults to the standard Materials Project REST address at “https://api.materialsproject.org”, but can be changed to other urls implementing a similar interface. include_user_agent (bool): If True, will include a user agent with the HTTP request including information on pymatgen and system version making the API request. This helps MP support pymatgen users, and is similar to what most web browsers send with each page request. Set to False to disable the user agent. session: requests Session object with which to connect to the API, for advanced usage only. debug: if True, print the URL for every request monty_decode: Decode the data using monty into python objects use_document_model: If False, skip the creating the document model and return data as a dictionary. This can be simpler to work with but bypasses data validation and will not give auto-complete for available fields. timeout: Time in seconds to wait until a request timeout error is thrown headers (dict): Custom headers for localhost connections.

search(band_gap: tuple[float, float] | None = None, efermi: tuple[float, float] | None = None, is_gap_direct: bool = None, is_metal: bool = None, magnetic_ordering: Ordering | None = None, path_type: BSPathType = BSPathType.setyawan_curtarolo, num_chunks: int | None = None, chunk_size: int = 1000, all_fields: bool = True, fields: list[str] | None = None)

Query band structure summary data in electronic structure docs using a variety of search criteria.

Parameters:

• band_gap (Tuple[float,float]) – Minimum and maximum band gap in eV to consider.

• efermi (Tuple[float,float]) – Minimum and maximum fermi energy in eV to consider.

• is_gap_direct (bool) – Whether the material has a direct band gap.

• is_metal (bool) – Whether the material is considered a metal.

• magnetic_ordering (Ordering) – Magnetic ordering of the material.

• path_type (BSPathType) – k-path selection convention for the band structure.

• num_chunks (int) – Maximum number of chunks of data to yield. None will yield all possible.

• chunk_size (int) – Number of data entries per chunk.

• all_fields (bool) – Whether to return all fields in the document. Defaults to True.

• fields (List[str]) – List of fields in ElectronicStructureDoc to return data for. Default is material_id and last_updated if all_fields is False.

Returns:

([ElectronicStructureDoc]) List of electronic structure documents

get_bandstructure_from_task_id(task_id: str)

Get the band structure pymatgen object associated with a given task ID.

Parameters:

task_id (str) – Task ID for the band structure calculation

Returns:

BandStructure or BandStructureSymmLine object

Return type:

bandstructure (BandStructure)

get_bandstructure_from_material_id(material_id: str, path_type: BSPathType = BSPathType.setyawan_curtarolo, line_mode=True)

Get the band structure pymatgen object associated with a Materials Project ID.

Parameters:

• material_id (str) – Materials Project ID for a material

• path_type (BSPathType) – k-point path selection convention

• line_mode (bool) – Whether to return data for a line-mode calculation

Returns:

BandStructure or BandStructureSymmLine object

Return type:
