The Python dependencies are listed in requirements.txt are best satisfied using a conda install (Miniconda or Anaconda).
To install autodE
git clone https://github.com/duartegroup/autodE.git
cd autodE
conda install --file requirements.txt --channel conda-forge
python setup.py install
see the installation guide for more detailed instructions.
Reaction profiles in autodE are generated by initialising Reactant and Product objects, generating a Reaction from those and invoking a method e.g. locate_transtion_state() or calculate_reaction_profile(). For example, to calculate the reaction profile for a 1,2 hydrogen shift in a propyl radical
from autode import *
Config.n_cores = 8
r = Reactant(name='reactant', smiles='CC[C]([H])[H]')
p = Product(name='product', smiles='C[C]([H])C')
reaction = Reaction(r, p, name='1-2_shift')
