"""AMBER trajectories --- :mod:`MDAnalysis.coordinates.TRJ`
========================================================
AMBER_ can write :ref:`ASCII trajectories<ascii-trajectories>` ("traj") and
:ref:`binary trajectories<netcdf-trajectories>` ("netcdf"). MDAnalysis supports
reading of both formats and writing for the binary trajectories.
Note
----
Support for AMBER is still somewhat *experimental* and feedback and
contributions are highly appreciated. Use the `Issue Tracker`_ or get in touch
on the `GitHub Discussions`_.
.. rubric:: Units
AMBER trajectories are assumed to be in the following units:
* lengths in Angstrom (Å)
* time in ps (but see below)
.. _netcdf-trajectories:
Binary NetCDF trajectories
--------------------------
The `AMBER netcdf`_ format make use of NetCDF_ (Network Common Data
Form) format. Such binary trajectories are recognized in MDAnalysis by
the '.ncdf' suffix and read by the :class:`NCDFReader`.
Binary trajectories can also contain velocities and forces, and can record the
exact time
step. In principle, the trajectories can be in different units than the AMBER
defaults of ångström and picoseconds but at the moment MDAnalysis only supports
those and will raise a :exc:`NotImplementedError` if anything else is detected.

.. _ascii-trajectories:
ASCII TRAJ trajectories
-----------------------
ASCII AMBER_ TRJ coordinate files (as defined in `AMBER TRJ format`_)
are handled by the :class:`TRJReader`. It is also possible to directly
read *bzip2* or *gzip* compressed files.
AMBER ASCII trajectories are recognised by the suffix '.trj',
'.mdcrd' or '.crdbox (possibly with an additional '.gz' or '.bz2').
.. Note::
In the AMBER community, these trajectories are often saved with the
suffix '.crd' but this extension conflicts with the CHARMM CRD
format and MDAnalysis *will not correctly autodetect AMBER ".crd"
trajectories*. Instead, explicitly provide the ``format="TRJ"``
argument to :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe`::
u = MDAnalysis.Universe("top.prmtop", "traj.crd", format="TRJ")
In this way, the AMBER :class:`TRJReader` is used.
.. rubric:: Limitations
* Periodic boxes are only stored as box lengths A, B, C in an AMBER
trajectory; the reader always assumes that these are orthorhombic
boxes.
* The trajectory does not contain time information so we simply set
the time step to 1 ps (or the user could provide it as kwarg *dt*)
* Trajectories with fewer than 4 atoms probably fail to be read (BUG).
* If the trajectory contains exactly *one* atom then it is always
assumed to be non-periodic (for technical reasons).
* Velocities are currently *not supported* as ASCII trajectories.

"""Reader for `AMBER NETCDF format`_ (version 1.0).
AMBER binary trajectories are automatically recognised by the
file extension ".ncdf".
The number of atoms (`n_atoms`) does not have to be provided as it can
be read from the trajectory. The trajectory reader can randomly access
frames and therefore supports direct indexing (with 0-based frame
indices) and full-feature trajectory iteration, including slicing.
Velocities are autodetected and read into the
:attr:`Timestep._velocities` attribute.
Forces are autodetected and read into the
:attr:`Timestep._forces` attribute.
Periodic unit cell information is detected and used to populate the
:attr:`Timestep.dimensions` attribute. (If no unit cell is available in
the trajectory, then :attr:`Timestep.dimensions` will return
``[0,0,0,0,0,0]``).
Current limitations:
* only trajectories with time in ps and lengths in Angstroem are processed
The NCDF reader uses :mod:`scipy.io.netcdf` and therefore :mod:`scipy` must
be installed. It supports the *mmap* keyword argument (when reading):
``mmap=True`` is memory efficient and directly maps the trajectory on disk
to memory (using the :class:`~mmap.mmap`); ``mmap=False`` may consume large
amounts of memory because it loads the whole trajectory into memory but it
might be faster. The default is ``mmap=None`` and then default behavior of
:class:`scipy.io.netcdf_file` prevails, i.e. ``True`` when
*filename* is a file name, ``False`` when *filename* is a file-like object.

AMBER binary trajectories are automatically recognised by the
file extension ".ncdf" or ".nc".
Velocities are written out if they are detected in the input
:class:`Timestep`. The trajectories are always written with ångström
for the lengths and picoseconds for the time (and hence Å/ps for
velocities and kilocalorie/mole/Å for forces).
Scale factor variables for time, velocities, cell lengths, cell angles,
coordinates, velocities, or forces can be passed into the writer. If so,
they will be written to the NetCDF file. In this case, the trajectory data
will be written to the NetCDF file divided by the scale factor value. By
default, scale factor variables are not written. The only exception is for
velocities, where it is set to 20.455, replicating the default behaviour of
AMBER.
Unit cell information is written if available.

Note
----
MDAnalysis uses :mod:`scipy.io.netcdf` to access AMBER files, which are in
netcdf 3 format. Although :mod:`scipy.io.netcdf` is very fast at reading
these files, it is *very* slow when writing, and it becomes slower the
longer the files are. On the other hand, the netCDF4_ package (which
requires the compiled netcdf library to be installed) is fast at writing
but slow at reading. Therefore, we try to use :mod:`netCDF4` for writing if
available but otherwise fall back to the slower :mod:`scipy.io.netcdf`.
**AMBER users** might have a hard time getting netCDF4 to work with a
conda-based installation (as discussed in `Issue #506`_) because of the way
that AMBER itself handles netcdf: When the AMBER environment is loaded, the
following can happen when trying to import netCDF4::
>>> import netCDF4
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/scratch2/miniconda/envs/py35/lib/python3.5/site-packages/netCDF4/__init__.py", line 3, in <module>
from ._netCDF4 import *
ImportError: /scratch2/miniconda/envs/py35/lib/python3.5/site-packages/netCDF4/_netCDF4.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: nc_inq_var_fletcher32
The reason for this (figured out via :program:`ldd`) is that AMBER builds
its own NetCDF library that it now inserts into :envvar:`LD_LIBRARY_PATH`
*without the NetCDF4 API and HDF5 bindings*. Since the conda version of
:mod:`netCDF4` was built against the full NetCDF package, the one
:program:`ld` tries to link to at runtime (because AMBER requires
:envvar:`LD_LIBRARY_PATH`) is missing some symbols. Removing AMBER from the
environment fixes the import but is not really a convenient solution for
users of AMBER.
At the moment there is no obvious solution if one wants to use
:mod:`netCDF4` and AMBER in the same shell session. If you need the fast
writing capabilities of :mod:`netCDF4` then you need to unload your AMBER
environment before importing MDAnalysis.

Raises
------
FutureWarning
When writing. The :class:`NCDFWriter` currently does not write any
`scale_factor` values for the data variables. Whilst not in breach
of the AMBER NetCDF standard, this behaviour differs from that of
most AMBER writers, especially for velocities which usually have a
`scale_factor` of 20.455. In MDAnalysis 2.0, the :class:`NCDFWriter`
will enforce `scale_factor` writing to either match user inputs (either
manually defined or via the :class:`NCDFReader`) or those as written by
AmberTools's :program:`sander` under default operation.

Changes the `cell_angles` unit to the AMBER NetCDF convention standard

MDAnalysis (Issue #2327).

``dt``, ``start``, and ``step`` keywords were unused and are no longer

"""NetCDF file object (read-only) that can be pickled.
This class provides a file-like object (as returned by
:class:`scipy.io.netcdf_file`) that,
unlike standard Python file objects,
can be pickled. Only read mode is supported.
When the file is pickled, filename and mmap of the open file handle in
the file are saved. On unpickling, the file is opened by filename,
and the mmap file is loaded.
This means that for a successful unpickle, the original file still has to
be accessible with its filename.
.. note::
This class subclasses :class:`scipy.io.netcdf_file`, please
see the `scipy netcdf API documentation`_ for more information on
the parameters and how the class behaviour.
Parameters
----------
filename : str or file-like
a filename given a text or byte string.
mmap : None or bool, optional
Whether to mmap `filename` when reading. True when `filename`
is a file name, False when `filename` is a file-like object.
version : {1, 2}, optional
Sets the netcdf file version to read / write. 1 is classic, 2 is
64-bit offset format. Default is 1 (but note AMBER ncdf *requires* 2).
maskandscale : bool, optional
Whether to automatically scale and mask data. Default is False.
Example
-------
::
f = NCDFPicklable(NCDF)
print(f.variables['coordinates'].data)
f.close()
can also be used as context manager::
with NCDFPicklable(NCDF) as f:
