Note on current project status

TLDR: MDTraj is currently undergoing a transition to new maintainers (the Folding@home consortium). Please bear with us as we slowly respond to issues and clean up.

Hello!

For anybody wondering, the MDTraj repo is currently undergoing a transition to new maintainers; The Folding@home consortium (@FoldingAtHome) will now be taking over support, maintainence and management of MDTraj with @xuhuihuang leading repo management, and @mattwthompson, @apayne97, and myself (@sukritsingh) helping to manage and maintain this repo more directly.

Existing supporters, contributors, etc. are all welcome to contribute as much as they wish. The intention behind this transition is to ensure MDTraj receives continued support.

As we are slowly transitioning to this new support, please bear with us as we slowly respond to issues, clean up any PRs, etc.

I have opened a Discussions page on github for folks asking for help with code issues/not getting things working. Our hope is that the issues page will be for discrete bugs, feature requests, related discussions etc., but this is very flexible!

Best,

Sukrit Singh (@sukritsingh)

MDTraj: an open-source library for analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories

Build Status PyPI Version Anaconda-Server Version Anaconda-Server Downloads DOI for Citing MDTraj Documentation Status

Read, write and analyze MD trajectories with only a few lines of Python code.

With MDTraj, you can

  • Read and write from every MD format imaginable (pdb, xtc, trr, dcd, netcdf, mdcrd, prmtop, gsd, ...)
  • Run blazingly fast RMSD calculations (4x the speed of the original Theobald QCP).
  • Use tons of analysis functions like bonds/angles/dihedrals, hydrogen bonding identification, secondary structure assignment, NMR observables.
  • Use a lightweight API, with a focus on speed and vectorized operations.

For details, see the website at mdtraj.org. To get involved, take a look at the github issue tracker and/or the gitter room.
