Hi, When using jlcpcb-kicad-tools, it's tedious and error prone to fill in the LCSC_Part for all components, so I'm thinking how to automate this from a database/CSV file of preferred parts.
I'm thinking one could make a BOM plugin that processes the XML and matches value and footprint (package) to insert the correct LCSC_Part. Looking at the XML, it looks for example like this: <comp ref="D1"> <value>5819</value> <footprint>kymatica:D_SOD-123</footprint> <datasheet>~</datasheet> <fields> <field name="LCSC_Part">C8598</field> <field name="Spice_Lib_File">/Users/lijon/Dropbox/Electronics/Spice-Models/easyeda.lib</field> <field name="Spice_Model">0</field> <field name="Spice_Netlist_Enabled">N</field> <field name="Spice_Node_Sequence">2 1</field> <field name="Spice_Primitive">R</field> </fields> <libsource lib="kymatica" part="D_Schottky" description="Schottky diode, small symbol, filled shape"/> <property name="Spice_Primitive" value="R"/> <property name="Spice_Netlist_Enabled" value="N"/> <property name="Spice_Node_Sequence" value="2 1"/> <property name="Spice_Lib_File" value="/Users/lijon/Dropbox/Electronics/Spice-Models/easyeda.lib"/> <property name="Spice_Model" value="0"/> <property name="LCSC_Part" value="C8598"/> <property name="Sheetname" value=""/> <property name="Sheetfile" value="NoiseGrain.kicad_sch"/> <sheetpath names="/" tstamps="/"/> <tstamp>00000000-0000-0000-0000-00005d77ea7f</tstamp> </comp> How come each custom field is repeated both in <fields> as well as having a <property>? Which one is used? Is there any way to read such an XML file back after processing it? Or is there a plugin API to process the schematic in place to fill in those LCSC_Part fields? -- /Jonatan http://kymatica.com _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
