David Dotson

  • DD – There’s been an update to our production environment, please restart your managers. I’ve posted instructions in qcfractal-compute.

    • CC – Will do

Upcoming improvements preview

Ben Pritchard

  • QCFractal/QCPortal new features

  • Datasets are matrices - Rows are entries and columns are specifications. A particular intersection of a row and column is a “Record” (though because it’s a database, we have a linking layer, where the object is called a “RecordItem”)

  • BP – For dataset retrieval, would fetching a pandas dataframe be useful?

    • CC – So, like, I could fetch all the final energies?

      • BP (shows an example of how to do this around the 35 minute mark of the recording)

    • PB – Could I modify a submission?

      • BP – Not really, you’d have to talk to GeomeTRIC

    • JW – Can we look up molecules by smiles/metadata?

      • BP – Yes, the metadata can be fetched more easily (~38 minute mark in recording)
