Version: 1.0
readcif is a C++11 library for quickly extracting data from mmCIF and CIF files. It fully conforms to the CIF 1.1 standard for data files, and can be easily extended to handle CIF dictionaries. In addition, it supports stylized PDBx/mmCIF files for even quicker parsing.
The readcif library license is an open source license with an acknowledgement clause. So if you use it, acknowledge that fact in your documentation.
A simple meson setup is provided. For simplest use, just copy the one C++ header file and source file into your code.
% meson setup builddir
% cd builddir
% ninja install
