Packages

emmet is a toolkit of packages that are used in conjunction to create the Materials API (MAPI) from raw calculations on disk. The following package make up this toolkit.

emmet-core

This is the core package for the emmet ecosystem. emmet.core is where data models are defined. These data models are the most important part of emmet since they dictate what all the other packages have to use, serve, or compute.

emmet-cli

Many of the operations in emmet are complex. These range from backing up calculations, to parsing, to setting of build chains, to starting workflows. Since these processes are pretty standard, the emmet ecosystem provides a CLI implemented in emmet.cli. This makes managing MAPI much easier.

emmet-builders

The data served via MAPI has to computed via data pipelines. emmet.builders defines these operations using the maggma framework to enable well constructed data access, multi- and distributed processing, reporting, and automatic incremental computation.
