to_dict(self[, discard_cosmetic_attributes])	Convert this ParameterType object to dict.

__init__(self, **kwargs)¶

Create a ParameterType

Parameters

smirksstr

The SMIRKS match for the provided parameter type.

allow_cosmetic_attributesbool optional. Default = False

Whether to permit non-spec kwargs (“cosmetic attributes”). If True, non-spec kwargs will be stored as an attribute of this parameter which can be accessed and written out. Otherwise an exception will be raised.

__init__(self, \*\*kwargs)	Create a ParameterType
add_cosmetic_attribute(self, attr_name, …)	Add a cosmetic attribute to this ParameterType object.
delete_cosmetic_attribute(self, attr_name)	Delete a cosmetic attribute from this ParameterType object.

Attributes

add_cosmetic_attribute(self, attr_name, attr_value)¶

Add a cosmetic attribute to this ParameterType object. This attribute will not have a functional effect on the object in the Open Force Field toolkit, but can be written out during output.

Parameters

attr_namestr

Name of the attribute to define for this ParameterType object.

attr_valuestr

The value of the attribute to define for this ParameterType object.

delete_cosmetic_attribute(self, attr_name)¶

Delete a cosmetic attribute from this ParameterType object.

Parameters

attr_namestr

Name of the attribute to delete.

to_dict(self, discard_cosmetic_attributes=False)¶

Convert this ParameterType object to dict. A unit-bearing attribute (‘X’) will be converted to two dict entries, one ([‘X’] containing the unitless value, and another ([‘X_unit’]) containing a string representation of its unit.

Parameters

discard_cosmetic_attributesbool, optional. Default = False

Whether to discard non-spec attributes of this ParameterType

Returns

smirnoff_dictdict

The SMIRNOFF-compliant dict representation of this ParameterType object.

output_unitsdict[str: simtk.unit.Unit]

A mapping from each simtk.unit.Quanitity-valued ParameterType attribute to the unit it was converted to during serialization.
