openfractal-client¶
Important: if you are planning to work with the Openfractal instances, it is highly recommended to read the upstream documentation at https://molssi.github.io/QCFractal/overview/index.html.

Overview¶
The two main libraries to interact with the Openfractal instances are:
qcportal: a Python client for Openfractal (QCFractal instance).qcfractalcompute: a Python client for Openfractal (QCFractal instance) that can launch a worker (also called a manager).
For now the Python library of this repo openfractal-client does not contain any particular logic. The plan is to use it if we need custom logic related to openfractal moving forward.
Next Steps¶
- Installation: Install the openfractal-client and its dependencies
- Tutorials: Work with datasets, execute manager, export generated data.
