### Introduction
Biobb_chemistry is the Biobb module collection to perform chemistry over molecular dynamics simulations.
Biobb (BioExcel building blocks) packages are Python building blocks that
create new layer of compatibility and interoperability over popular
bioinformatics tools.
The latest documentation of this package can be found in our readthedocs site:
[latest API documentation](http://biobb-chemistry.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

### Version
v5.2.0 2025.2

### Installation
Using PIP:

> **Important:** PIP only installs the package. All the dependencies must be installed separately. To perform a complete installation, please use ANACONDA, DOCKER or SINGULARITY.

* Installation:


        pip install "biobb_chemistry>=5.2.0"


* Usage: [Python API documentation](https://biobb-chemistry.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules.html)

Using ANACONDA:

* Installation:


        conda install -c bioconda "biobb_chemistry>=5.2.0"


* Usage: With conda installation BioBBs can be used with the [Python API documentation](https://biobb-chemistry.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules.html) and the [Command Line documentation](https://biobb-chemistry.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_line.html)

Using DOCKER:

* Installation:


        docker pull quay.io/biocontainers/biobb_chemistry:5.2.0--pyhdfd78af_1


* Usage:


        docker run quay.io/biocontainers/biobb_chemistry:5.2.0--pyhdfd78af_1 <command>

Using SINGULARITY:

**MacOS users**: it's strongly recommended to avoid Singularity and use **Docker** as containerization system.

* Installation:


        singularity pull --name biobb_chemistry.sif https://depot.galaxyproject.org/singularity/biobb_chemistry:5.2.0--pyhdfd78af_1


* Usage:


        singularity exec biobb_chemistry.sif <command>


The command list and specification can be found at the [Command Line documentation](https://biobb-chemistry.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_line.html).
