KF output files¶

Accessing KF files¶

KF files are Direct Access binary files. KF stands for Keyed File: KF files are keyword oriented, which makes them easy to process by simple procedures. Internally all the data on KF files is organized into sections containing variables, so each datum on the file can be identified by the combination of section and variable.

All KF files can be opened using the KFbrowser GUI program:

$AMSBIN/kfbrowser path/to/ams.rkf

By default KFbrowser shows a just a curated summary of the results on the file, but you can make it show the raw section and variable structure by switching it to expert mode. To do this, click on File → Expert Mode or press ctrl/cmd + e.

KF files can be opened and read with Command line tools.

For working with the data from KF files, it is often useful to be able to read them from Python. Using the AMS Python Stack, this can easily be done with the AKFReader class:

>>> from scm.akfreader import AKFReader
>>> kf = AKFReader("path/to/ams.rkf")
>>> "Molecule%Coords" in kf
True
>>> kf.description("Molecule%Coords")
{
    '_type': 'float_array',
    '_shape': [3, 'nAtoms'],
    '_comment': 'Coordinates of the nuclei (x,y,z)',
    '_unit': 'Bohr'
}
>>> kf.read("Molecule%Coords")
array([[-11.7770694 ,  -4.19739597,   0.04934546],
       [ -9.37471321,  -2.63234227,  -0.13448698],
        ...
       [ 10.09508738,  -1.06191208,   1.45286913],
       [ 10.11689333,  -1.5080196 ,  -1.87916127]])
