The changes in this pull request address issue #201 providing more intuitive method names. I clustered the changes into three major topics and would be glad to hear your opinion

1. Renamed functions

  • ArrayData
    • .iterarrays() -> .get_iterarrays()
  • TrajectoryData
    • ._get_cif() -> .get_cif()
    • ._get_aiida_structure -> .get_structure()
  • StructureData
    • ._get_cif() -> .get_cif()
  • Code
    • .full_text_info() -> .get_full_text_info()

Functions have been renamed and the tests have been adopted accordingly. (Deprecation warnings have been added to all "old" functions)

2. Methods changed to properties

  • Code
    • .is_hidden() -> .hidden
  • RemoteData
    • .is_empty() -> .is_empty
  • StructureData, Kind
    • .is_alloy() -> .is_alloy
    • .has_vacancies() -> .has_vacancies

Idea was that these values are rather "attributes" of these classes and it is more intuitive to treat them as properties rather than actual methods. Question here is: Is this OK and how to exactly deal with this since we cannot simply add deprecation warnings.

3. Changes in TrajectoryData.set_trajectory():
Input parameters stepid and cells are now optional and the implemented behavior is as follows:

  • If cells parameter is missing: Nothing will be stored for cells.
  • If stepids parameter is missing: stepids defaults to the consecutive sequence [0,1,...,len(positions)-1]

Element symbols passed to the set_trajectory() method are now passed as a list (instead of a numpy.ndarray) and are stored in the TrajectoryData.symbols attribute (as requested in #201 to simplify querying)

Change tests for dataclasses (StructureData, TrajectoryData) to call the
renamed functions .get_structures() (former ._get_aiida_structures()) and
.get_cif() (former ._get_cif())
Change TrajectoryData to make passing stepids and cells optional. While
nothing will be stored for cells if not given a consecutive sequence will be
automatically assigned to stepids if missing from the inputs.
As proposed in issue aiidateam#201 symbols are now stored in a
TrajectoryData attribute rather than an array to simplify the
query for these symbols
Move set of pylint options inside CifData class. Disable check for
too-many-public-methods complaining about 21/20 public methods
after renaming _get_aiida_structure -> get_structure making get_structure()
method public
Make class methods .is_alloy() and .has_vacancies() for StrutureData
and Kind classes accessible as class properties .is_alloy and
.has_vacancies

Beside the comments above:

  • rename is_hidden to hidden
  • we would need a data migration before merging, for the symbols going from an array to a attribute.
    If you do all other changes, we can then fork off your branch and implement the migration ourselves. Thanks!

Coverage Status

Coverage decreased (-6.9%) to 61.728% when pulling 82ffebb on boschresearch:issue_201 into 19110f9 on aiidateam:provenance_redesign.

In function _internal_validate the 'symbols' list containing
atomic names is checked for being 1D using the shape of the
array. However, each entry of this list is ensured to be of type
six.string_types somewhere upstream in this function which would
already have triggered if the list is not purely 1D (contains one
or more lists as entry somewhere)

Squash-merged into a working branch to keep attribution to @astamminger and we'll continue working from there
