prometheus_equilibrium.tools.build_db

CLI for building thermodynamic databases from raw source files.

Entry point registered in pyproject.toml as Prometheus-build.

Subcommands

nasa7

Parse a Burcat7 .thr file → nasa7.json

nasa9

Parse Burcat9 .thr and/or CEA thermo.inp → unified nasa9.json

janaf

Parse a JANAF .jnf file → janaf.csv

shomate

Validate and merge a hand-authored shomate.json

all

Run all of the above from a source directory

Modes

--mode overwrite

Rebuild from scratch; existing output is replaced.

--mode append

Add new species only; keep existing records on conflict (default for nasa9).

--mode interactive

Prompt for each conflicting species (default for all).

Source labels

Every subcommand asks for a --source label (or --burcat-source / --cea-source for the nasa9 dual-source case). If the flag is omitted the script prompts for it interactively, because the label is embedded in every compiled record and is shown during conflict resolution.
