Specification of a common REST API for access to materials databases
In https://github.com/Materials-Consortia/optimade-python-tools/pull/986 I have proposed two additional requirements for formulas (`chemical_formula_reduced`, `chemical_formula_hill` and `chemical_formula_anonymous`) dictated by my personal "common sense": * Formulas MUST NOT be empty strings. If a formula...
This is the third option on how to include biomolecular data within Optimade. This has been discussed in [issue 389](https://github.com/Materials-Consortia/OPTIMADE/issues/389). It introduces two new main fields: biomol_chains and biomol_residues. These...
I noticed that a new version of the [JSON API](https://jsonapi.org/format/) is out, version 1.1. Do we want to update the OPTIMADE specification to be compatible with this version ? I...
OPTIMADE specification v1.0.1 defines a structure as a set of sites, occupied by mixtures of atoms, with each atom described by its chemical type, mass and occupancy (proportion in the...
During the OPTIMADE meeting in June 2021, we discussed in room 2 how the OPTIMADE standard could be expanded to allow the sharing of trajectory data. Based on the discussions...
Do we want to allow the use of smiles string in the field chemical_formula_descriptive ? The SMILES notation for molecular formulas uses '#' and '$' to indicate triple and quadruple...
In #368 SMILES property for structures was proposed. After some discussion the following consensus emerged: * [OpenSMILES](http://opensmiles.org/opensmiles.html) specification for SMILES is to be used * Type of this property is...
Insufficient space group descriptions
As suggested by @BobHanson, there should be standard means to distinguish between experimental and theoretical structures. This could be a property with boolean/enum values. I would suggest "MUST" level of...
