twinizer 0.1.8

A comprehensive environment for hardware and firmware reverse engineering, analysis and management

Twinizer

Overview

Twinizer is a comprehensive toolkit for creating and manipulating digital twins of hardware and software systems. It provides a collection of converters, analyzers, and utilities to transform various input formats into useful representations for digital twin applications.

Features

Hardware Analysis

• KiCad Integration: Parse and convert KiCad schematics and PCB layouts
• Altium Integration: Support for Altium Designer files
• 3D Model Generation: Convert PCB designs to 3D models

Software Analysis

• Dependency Analysis: Analyze project dependencies across various languages and build systems
• Decompilation: Convert binary files to higher-level representations
• Disassembly: Disassemble binary files into assembly code

Converters

• PDF to Markdown: Convert PDF documents to Markdown format
• Image Processing:
  • ASCII Art: Convert images to ASCII art
  • Mermaid Diagrams: Generate Mermaid diagrams from images
  • 3D Models: Convert images to height maps, normal maps, 3D meshes, and point clouds
• Binary to Source: Convert binary files to source code representations

Installation

Using pip

pip install twinizer

From Source

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/twinizer.git
cd twinizer
pip install -e .

Dependencies

Twinizer has several optional dependencies that enable specific features:

# For image processing features
pip install matplotlib

# For KiCad integration (required for hardware analysis)
# KiCad must be installed on your system for full functionality

# For PDF conversion
pip install pdfminer.six

# For all optional dependencies
pip install twinizer[all]

Usage

Command Line Interface

Twinizer provides a comprehensive command-line interface for all its functionality:

# Show help and available commands
twinizer --help

# Analyze project structure
twinizer analyze structure --source-dir /path/to/project

# Convert between file formats
twinizer convert pdf-to-markdown /path/to/document.pdf --output document.md

# Work with KiCad files
twinizer kicad sch-to-mermaid /path/to/schematic.sch --diagram-type flowchart --output schematic.mmd
twinizer kicad sch-to-bom /path/to/schematic.sch --format csv --output bom.csv
twinizer kicad pcb-to-mermaid /path/to/pcb.kicad_pcb --diagram-type flowchart --output pcb.mmd
