# gerbonara

Tools to handle Gerber and Excellon files in Python.

This repository is a friendly fork of [phsilva's pcb-tools](https://github.com/curtacircuitos/pcb-tools) with
[extensions from opiopan](https://github.com/opiopan/pcb-tools-extension) integrated. We decided to fork pcb-tools since
we need it as a dependency for [gerbolyze](https://gitlab.com/gerbolyze/gerbolyze) and pcb-tools was sometimes very
behind on bug fixes.

# Installation

Arch Linux:

```
yay -S python-gerbonara
```

Python:

```
pip install gerbonara
```

# Usage

Here's a simple example:

```python
import gerbonara
from gerbonara.render import GerberCairoContext

# Read gerber and Excellon files
top_copper = gerbonara.read('example.GTL')
nc_drill = gerbonara.read('example.txt')

# Rendering context
ctx = GerberCairoContext()

# Create SVG image
top_copper.render(ctx)
nc_drill.render(ctx, 'composite.svg')
```
