altium-rs

A tool to process Altium file types. Currently this tool is in alpha and only has minimal components fully functioning (so please expect breaking changes!).

This is intended as a replacement for my original tool PyAltium

Project Progress

The goal of this project is to support most file types used by Altium. Reading is a priority, writing will be implemented for some types. The status of various file types is listed below:

| | Extension | List Items | Display | Write | Documentation | | ------------------------ | ----------- | ---------- | ------- | ----- | ------------------------------------- | | Binary Schematic Library | .SchLib | ✓ | Poorly | | Good | | Binary PCB Library | .PcbLib | | | | | | Binary Schematic Doc | .SchDoc | | | | | | Binary PCB Doc | .PcbDoc | | | | | | Draftsman Doc | .PcbDwf | | | | | | PCB Project | .PrjPcb | | | | | | Material Library | .xml | | N/A | | | | Any templates | Not Planned | | | | |

Examples

See altium/examples for some sample usage. Example reading components in a schematic library:

```rust,no_run use altium::SchLib;

fn main() { let lib = SchLib::open("path/to/mylib.schlib").unwrap();

// List all librefs stored in this schematic library
for meta in lib.component_meta() {
    println!(
        "libref: {}, description: {}",
        meta.libref(),
        meta.description()
    );
}

// Get a single component by libref
let mycomp = lib.get_component("Resistor - standard").unwrap();

// Write that image to a SVG file. Note that output is pretty buggy still.
mycomp.save_svg("resistor.svg").unwrap();

} ```
