Synchronize a PCB Bill of Materials between Eagle attributes and a CSV file

eagle-bom-sync

This script synchronizes a PCB Bill of Materials between files, such as:

• Eagle (BRD and SCH)
• Spreadsheet (CSV, XLS, ODS)

The general workflow is to create an initial BOM manually in a spreadsheet, that includes info for all assembly variants. Then, this data is injected into attributes within the Eagle design files. This is done for two reasons:

• Injecting the BOM info into the design files allows assembly houses like CircuitHub and Tempo to extract the correct info.

• You can manipulate things inside the PCB software (changing reference designators, copying components) and then re-extract an updated BOM.

Variants

All variant info is stored together in the "primary" spreadsheet or design files. Simplified boards and BOM output can be generated for any variant.

Variant rules are simple Python expressions that can contain function calls to set flags, based on variable names are "True" if they appear in the list of currently set variants. Basic action functions are available, for example:

dnp(foo) -> mark part as DNP if "foo" variant is set
only(foo or bar) -> mark part as DNP unless "foo" or "bar" is set
exclude(not foo) -> exclude from output if "foo" variant isn't set
