Export to Eeschema Schematic

See original GitHub issue

Would it be possible for skidl to export into Eeschema?

The use case, is that it would be really powerful to generate a circuit description in Python code using skdl and then visualize it in Eeschema.

I’ve gotten a rough generate_schematic() to successfully build a KiCAD .sch file with all components. The process is:

For each component in default_circuit.parts:

  • Get component info from library
  • Parse library info to a schematic part and append to a list

I’m doing a lot of string analysis/building so I feel like my process may be improved. @xesscorp I’d love some feedback. Especially on where to put my helper functions that shouldn’t be in circuit.py

@shanemmattner Super minor, but just FYI you can have GitHub syntax highlight your code blocks if you write them like:

```python
def fun() -> None:
    pass

Example:

def fun() -> None:
    pass
