Mcpy doesn't support compiled Python. So I decided to try Macropy, this is a
test.
Is much harder to get it working:
- The script must be a 2 liner, you can't activate it in any other way.
- The hook breaks the _import function in kiplot.py figuring out how to solve
it was a real challenge. It failed miserably passing the class instead of
the ast._ClassDef to the macro.
When I finally got it working I found the code supports compiled Python, but
runs almost 3 times slower.
I keep this in a branch in case I want to revisit it, but doesn't look useful.
Now the options are just an attribute of the outputs.
It means we have a set of classes for the options.
All the output content is parsed by the classes, including the Layers.
Now the layers support a simple string (with interesting shortcuts), a list of
strings or the original list of dicts.
Now the legacy drill.map.type and drill.report.filename are specified in this
way.
The BaseOutput class now inherits from Optionable.
Suboptions are just Optionable classes.
Also: added traceback print when an error is reported and we are in debug mode.
They can be added from ~/.config/kiplot/plugins/
Also sorted the preflights in the YAML example and allower -v for
--help-list-outputs, needed to know from where are the plugins loaded.
The --help-outputs and --help are embedded in the README.md
To make it easier to read now options are enclosed in `` and the list of
outputs is sorted.
Note that variants_blacklist and variants_whitelist needs a fresh IBoM.
These options didn't work and crashed IBoM. It was reported as a result of
the tests included in this commit.
This make the code cleaner and better documented.
Now the usage is more clear, and also a little bit more strict.
I'm using a modified docopt because I preffer using args.option instead of
args['--option'], I also fixed a few flake8 issues in docopt.py.
The old mechanism is supported, but removed from examples.
Added a test case for the new mechanism.
Documented the reason for the complex properties.
Added docstrings to these particular cases (with None as default).
- Included properties
- The final dot is placed by the printing code (removed from messages)
- docstrings line lengths limited
- Better HPGL help
- Fixed ibom default output (.html.html)
- pdf_pcb_print to use PCB name when not output name
- Default PS scaling factor to 1 (not 2)
--help-list-outputs list supported outputs
--help-outputs list details for the supported outputs
--help-output OUTPUT shows the help for this particular output
