eagexp can export eagle partlist or image (2D/3D) of schematic or board.
- Links:
documentation: http://ponty.github.com/eagexp
- Features:
written in python
it can be used as library or as a command line program
background processing (only if Xephyr, Xvfb and pyvirtualdisplay are installed)
timeout
calculate airwires
- Known problems:
slow: eagle is opened and closed for each export
high DPI does not work (memory problem?)
Python 3 is not supported
export can be blocked by eagle -> timeout
3D image export has a lot of options which are not supported
Basic usage
>>> from eagexp import image, partlist >>> brd='~/.eagle/projects/examples/singlesided/singlesided.brd' >>> image.export_image(brd, 'brd.png', resolution=600) >>> print partlist.raw_partlist(brd)
How it works
start Xvfb headless X server using pyvirtualdisplay
redirect eagle display to Xvfb server by setting $DISPLAY variable.
start eagle with EXPORT and QUIT commands
