Welcome to Pidibble’s documentation!
Pidibble is a Python package for parsing standard Protein Data Bank (PDB) files. It conforms to the most recent standard (v.3.3 Atomic Coordinate Entry Format, ca. 2011).
Unlike parsers like that found in packages like BioPython, pidibble provides meaningfully parsed objects from all standard PDB record types, not just ATOMs and CONECTs.
Once installed, the user has access to the PDBParser class in the pidibble.pdbparser module.
Pidibble can fetch coordinate files from the RSCB PDB and from the AlphaFold model database.
Check out the Usage section for further information, including on Installation of the package.
Note
Pidibble is under active development.
