gnetlist Scheme primitives

Originally written by John Doty

Procedure gnetlist:get-packages level
Yields a list of refdes values for the set of schematics. Duplicated values are only listed once. The string level must be present, but is unused.
Usage: (gnelist:get-packages "")
Procedure gnetlist:get-non-unique-packages level
The same as gnetlist:get-packages, but duplicated values are listed as many times as they appear.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-non-unique-packages "")
Procedure gnetlist:get-pins refdes
Yields a list of pin numbers for the specified refdes value, which must be a string.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-pins "R1")
Procedure gnetlist:get-all-nets level
Yields a list of net names of nets connected to pins of all components for the set of schematics. Duplicated values are listed as many times as they appear once per pin. The string level must be present, but is unused.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-all-nets "")
Procedure gnetlist:get-all-unique-nets level
The same as gnetlist:get-all-nets, but duplicated values are only listed once.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-all-unique-nets "")
Procedure gnetlist:get-all-connections net
Yields a list of all connections to the named net, which must be a string. Each element of the list is itself a two element list of the form (refdes pinnumber).
Usage: (gnetlist:get-all-connections "3")
Procedure gnetlist:get-nets refdes pin
Yields a list of the form (netname connection1 connection2 …) where the netname is a name of the net connected to the pin of the component with the given refdes, and each connection is itself a two element list of the form (refdes pinnumber) representing the pin with the pinnumber of the component with the refdes. All arguments must be strings.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-nets "R1" "1")
BUG: This function does not reliably list all of the connections, if a net= connection is specified. All existing back ends that use this (excluding the cascade back end) use only the netname.
Procedure gnetlist:get-pins-nets refdes
Yields a list of (pinnumber . netname) pairs detailing all pin connections for the given refdes.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-pins-nets "R1")
Procedure gnetlist:get-all-package-attributes refdes attribute
Yields the list of values of the first found named attribute attached to all symbol instances with the given refdes. If an instance has no such attribute, #f is added to the list. All arguments must be strings.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-all-package-attributes "D1" "slot")
Procedure gnetlist:get-package-attribute refdes attribute
Yields the value of the named attribute attached to a symbol instance with the given refdes. Yields "unknown" if the attribute is absent. It only yields one value, regardless of how many matching attributes exist in the set of schematics. All arguments must be strings.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-package-attribute "R1" "device")
BUG: If there is more than one instance only the first instance encountered is inspected, so it may yield "unknown", even if a matching attribute is present.
Procedure gnetlist:get-toplevel-attribute attribute
Yields the value of the named attribute, which must be a string, at top level, that is, an attribute present in one of the schematics unattached to any object. Yields "not found" if no matching attribute is present.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-toplevel-attribute "schematic-name")
Procedure gnetlist:get-renamed-nets level
When gnetlist expands a hierarchical subcircuit, it first assigns every net within the subcircuit a unique name based on the refdes of the subcircuit instance and, if present, the netname within the subcircuit. If a net is attached to the higher level circuit, gnetlist then changes the name of the subcircuit net to the name of the higher level net to which it is attached. gnetlist:get-renamed-nets returns a list of lists of pairs of names. The first name in a pair is the initial unique netname within the subcircuit, the second is the higher level netname it has acquired. The string level argument must be present, but is unused.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-renamed-nets "")
Procedure gnetlist:get-attribute-by-pinseq refdes pinseq attribute
Yields the value of the named attribute attached to the pin with the named pinseq attribute to the package with the named refdes attribute. All arguments must be strings.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-attribute-by-pinseq "R1" "1" "pinlabel")
Procedure gnetlist:get-attribute-by-pinnumber refdes pinnumber attribute
Yields the value of the named attribute attached to the pin with the named pinnumber attribute to the package with the named refdes attribute. All arguments must be strings.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-attribute-by-pinnumber "R1" "1" "pinlabel")
Procedure gnetlist:vams-get-package-attributes refdes
Yields a list of the names of attributes attached to the package with the named refdes, which must be a string.
Usage: (gnetlist:vams-get-package-attributes "R1")
BUG: If there is more than one instance only the first instance encountered is inspected.
Procedure gnetlist:get-slots refdes
Yields a list of integers representing all slot attributes associated with a given refdes, which must be a string. Duplicated values are listed as many times as they appear.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-slots "D3")
Procedure gnetlist:get-unique-slots refdes
The same as gnetlist:get-slots, but duplicated values are listed only once.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-unique-slots "D3")
Procedure gnetlist:graphical-objs-in-net-with-attrib-get-attrib netname attribute-string attribute-name
This searches for a graphical symbol attached to a net with the given netname. The symbol must have attribute-string (of the form name=value) attached. It yields the value of the specified attribute named attribute-name. All arguments must be strings.
Usage: (gnetlist:graphical-objs-in-net-with-attrib-get-attrib "undriven_net" "device=DRC_Directive" "value")
Procedure gnetlist:get-backend-arguments
Yields a list of arguments passed to the gnetlist backend via the -O command-line option.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-backend-arguments)
Procedure gnetlist:get-calling-flags
Yields a list of lists of command line flags and values. Each flag must be known to the gnetlist front end. For example, the -O nomunge_mode option will yield ("nomunge_mode" #t).
Usage: (gnetlist:get-calling-flags)
NOTE: This function is deprecated and should not be used in new code. New code should use gnetlist:get-backend-arguments directly.
Procedure gnetlist:get-input-files
Yields a list of the files named on the command line.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-input-files)
Procedure gnetlist:get-command-line
Yields the command line used to invoke the program.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-command-line)
BUG: As of gnetlist version 1.9.1 it is broken and outputs command line arguments passed to guile instead of those of gnetlist.
Yields a number corresponding to the verbosity mode specified on the command-line: 1 for verbose mode, -1 for quiet mode, and 0 otherwise.
Usage: (gnetlist:get-verbosity)
Procedure gnetlist-version
Yields #t if the version numbers of the gnetlist rc files and that of gEDA/gaf do not differ, otherwise yields #f and outputs warning.
Usage: (gnetlist-version)

See the hierarchy page for information about gnetlist rc settings.
