Gerber-parser

A simple gerber parser written in rust to be used with the gerber-types crate.

```rust use std::fs::File; use std::io::{BufRead, BufReader}; use gerberparser::parser::parsegerber;

// open a .gbr file from system let file = File::open(path).unwrap(); let reader = BufReader::new(file);

// Now we parse the file to a GerberDoc let gerberdoc: GerberDoc = parsegerber(reader);

// it is possible to convert to an 'atomic' representation purely // in terms of Vec of the gerber-types crate let commands:Vec = gerberdoc.tocommands(); ```

Current State

⚠️ Note: this package is still in development and does not cover the full Gerber spec

Currently missing

• All TD, TO commands
• All AM commands
• LM, LR, LS commands
• SR commands
• AB commands

Partial:

• The TF and TA commands only support a limited range of arguments; custom attributes will result in an error

In addition, comments in the header section of the file (i.e. unit type declaration, format specification and aperture declarations) will be placed below the header when the parsed Gerber is converted back to string via serialisation.

General to-do

• Make parsing a bit cleaner, with Result
• Reduce the number of panics
• Make error messages clearer
• Mini-tests for all commands
• Do proper coordinate check (compatibility with format specification)
