Netlist
~~~~~~~
Generates the list of connections for the project.
The netlist can be generated in the classic format and in IPC-D-356 format,
useful for board testing
Type: ``netlist``
Parameters:
- **comment** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; comment>` [string=''] A comment for documentation purposes. It helps to identify the output.
- **dir** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; dir>` [string='./'] Output directory for the generated files.
If it starts with `+` the rest is concatenated to the default dir.
- **name** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; name>` [string=''] Used to identify this particular output definition.
Avoid using `_` as first character. These names are reserved for KiBot.
- **options** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; options>` [dict] Options for the `netlist` output.
- Valid keys:
- **format** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist - options; format>` [string='classic'] [classic,ipc] The `classic` format is the KiCad internal format, and is generated
from the schematic. The `ipc` format is the IPC-D-356 format, useful for PCB
testing, is generated from the PCB.
- **output** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist - options; output>` [string='%f-%i%I%v.%x'] Filename for the output (%i=netlist/IPC-D-356, %x=net/d356). Affected by global options.
- ``dnf_filter`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist - options; dnf_filter>` [string|list(string)='_none'] Name of the filter to mark components as not fitted.
A short-cut to use for simple cases where a variant is an overkill.
- ``pre_transform`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist - options; pre_transform>` [string|list(string)='_none'] Name of the filter to transform fields before applying other filters.
A short-cut to use for simple cases where a variant is an overkill.
- ``variant`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist - options; variant>` [string=''] Board variant to apply.
Used for sub-PCBs.
- **type** :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; type>` [string=''] Type of output.
- ``category`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; category>` [string|list(string)=''] The category for this output. If not specified an internally defined category is used.
Categories looks like file system paths, i.e. **PCB/fabrication/gerber**.
The categories are currently used for `navigate_results`.
- ``disable_run_by_default`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; disable_run_by_default>` [string|boolean] Use it to disable the `run_by_default` status of other output.
Useful when this output extends another and you don't want to generate the original.
Use the boolean true value to disable the output you are extending.
- ``extends`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; extends>` [string=''] Copy the `options` section from the indicated output.
Used to inherit options from another output of the same type.
- ``groups`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; groups>` [string|list(string)=''] One or more groups to add this output. In order to catch typos
we recommend to add outputs only to existing groups. You can create an empty group if
needed.
- ``output_id`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; output_id>` [string=''] Text to use for the %I expansion content. To differentiate variations of this output.
- ``priority`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; priority>` [number=50] [0,100] Priority for this output. High priority outputs are created first.
Internally we use 10 for low priority, 90 for high priority and 50 for most outputs.
- ``run_by_default`` :index:`: <pair: output - netlist; run_by_default>` [boolean=true] When enabled this output will be created when no specific outputs are requested.
