Verilator Python
This python package contains a pre-built installation of verilator, and a python wrapper to run verilator. It should function exactly the same as if you installed verilator through normal means.
Installing this python package will install "verilator-dspsim" into the python environments scripts/bin folder, which runs verilator with the same arguments. It can also be run with "python -m verilator". The verilator installation is placed in site-packages/verilator, where it can be found by find_package(verilator) in CMake.
The main goal of this project is to simplify distributing verilator and using it within a python application.
This project is not affiliated with Verilator.
Installation
Pre-built wheels are available for Windows, Linux (manylinux) and macOS. Each wheel works with any supported python version.
Otherwise, you can build from source. This requires having a compatible compiler installed, and any dependencies. Read the verilator user manual for more information.
On Windows, verilator is built with its CMake build. On Linux and macOS, CMake is only used to run verilator's supported autoconf/configure/make build, so autoconf, make, flex, bison, perl and help2man are required. See docs/BuildProcess.md for details.
Install Options
pypi.org
pip install verilator-dspsim
from source
pip install .
cached build directory
pip install --no-build-isolation -Cbuild-dir=build -v .
Editable installs are not supported.
Example Project
