Work-in-progress on ISLA importer #95

Closed silby closed 4 years ago

silby commented 5 years ago

This is a wip state of an initial effort on an ISLA importer for the Frenkel lab, pushed in case my time runs out before I'm able to finish the train of thought I started here.

The general idea is to create an Import class of the existing model, based on some configured job-global parameters and processing the rows of a rectangular spreadsheet/CSV file. Then, to support uploading ISLA worksheet templates, probably wrapping this importer in an alternative front-end "harness" to the base Import UI/controller. This allows employing the substantial work done to refine the Import system and exploit its job-running capabilities while still building a more purpose-built UI for the Frenkel lab.
