cape.pylch: Interfaces to Loci/CHEM

The cape.pylch module contains the top-level interface for Loci/CHEM setup, execution, and post-processing. It loads some of the most important methods from the various submodules so that they are easier to access. Most tasks using the pyLCH API can be accessed by loading this module and reading one instance of the cape.pylch.cntl.Cntl class.

import cape.pylch

For example the following will read in a global settings instance assuming that the present working directory contains the correct files. (If not, various defaults will be used, but it is unlikely that the resulting setup will be what you intended.)

import cape.pylch
cntl = cape.pylch.Cntl()
