Running LAMMPS with PLUMED

[namtranlab]

Dear DeepMD-kit experts,

When installing DeepMD-kit with conda or offline version.
A plugin version of LAMMPS is also built.
I would like to run metadynamics using the built-in version of LAMMPS together with PLUMED.
Is there any way we can integrate PLUMED?

Best,

Please refer LAMMPS doc to integrate LAMMPS with PLUMED. This is not related to DeePMD-kit.
Note: The LAMMPS you installed from conda has already enabled PLUMED.

The problem is if a user wants to use both deepmd and plumed in lammps, does he/she have to rebuild lammps? Or is there anyway of using plumed in our released lammps+deepmd binary?

[njzjz]

Our released lammps+deepmd binary has been already built with plumed.

Sorry! I found a similar thread #1277 .

It seems we can directly run deepmd+lammps and plumed without the need to rebuild the package.

Thank you for your help.
Best
