PyEAGLE - Read / Write Cadsoft EAGLE Files

Scott Torborg

PyEAGLE is an interchange API to read and write Cadsoft EAGLE XML (v6 and later) schematic, library, and PCB layout files.

Some long term goals are:

• Comprehensive and round-trip-capable interface between Pythonic data structures and EAGLE’s XML format, eliminating the impedance mismatch involved in manipulating EAGLE files in Python scripts.
• Traversal and net analysis helpers, to serve as a foundation for higher-level tools.
• Rendering capability in SVG.
• Command-line tools, including basic grep and lint tools.

At this point it is fairly incomplete and not ‘production useful’.

Example Usage

lib = pyeagle.open('SparkFun-Sensors.lbr')
for part in lib:
    print part
