Version: 0.7
The new generation molecular viewer for the IPython notebook.
chemview is not being maintained anymore. If you would like to adopt the project, let me know in an email!
As an alternative project, I recommend nglview https://github.com/arose/nglview
Installing chemview with conda is fairly easy. First download anaconda (or miniconda):
To install chemview using conda you can first create an environment (optional):
$ conda create -p /path/to/new/environment python
$ source activate /path/to/new/environment
then, you can install chemview directly from the binstar channel.
$ conda install -c gabrielelanaro chemview
or, for the development version you can manually install the dependencies:
pip install jupyter notebook numba numpy matplotlib
# Download and install chemview
git clone https://github.com/gabrielelanaro/chemview
cd chemview
pip install .
The new jupyter also requires you to install the widget manually:
jupyter nbextension enable widgetsnbextension --user --py
jupyter nbextension install --user --py --symlink chemview
jupyter nbextension enable --user --py chemview
At this point you are ready to go!
$ jupyter notebook
You can try chemview on the test notebooks present in this distribution or head to the documentation http://chemview.readthedocs.org
