Class GITHUB_PLUGIN
|
|
implements a portion of pcbnew's PLUGIN interface to provide read only access
|
|
to a github repo consisting of pretty footprints, and optionally provides "Copy On Write"
|
|
support of edited footprints.
|
|
|
|
<p>It could have used version 3 of the github.com API documented here:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
http://developer.github.com/v3/
|
|
https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-access-token-for-command-line-use
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
but it does not, since a better technique was discovered. Cleverly this
|
|
plugin simply reads in a zip file of the repo and unzips it from RAM as
|
|
needed. Therefore this "Github" plugin is <b>read only for accessing remote
|
|
pretty libraries at https://github.com.</b>
|
|
|
|
<p>The fp-lib-table dialog is entered via menu choice "Preferences | Library
|
|
Tables". For easy options editing in the current row, click on the "Edit
|
|
Options" button. The "Library Path" in the fp-lib-table row for a Github
|
|
library should be set to the full https:// URL.
|
|
|
|
<p>For example:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
https://github.com/liftoff-sr/pretty_footprints
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
This is typically
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
https://github.com/user_name/repo_name
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
The "Plugin Type" should be set to "Github".
|
|
|
|
<p>This plugin also supports "Copy On Write", a.k.a. "COW". Thus a Github
|
|
library may take an optional option called
|
|
<b>allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir</b>. This option is essentially the
|
|
"Library Path" for a local "KiCad" (pretty) type library which is combined to
|
|
make up the Github library found in the same fp-lib-table row. If the option
|
|
is missing, then the Github library is read only as always. If the option is
|
|
present for a Github library, then any writes to this hybrid library will go
|
|
to the local *.pretty directory. Note that the github.com resident portion of
|
|
this hybrid COW library is always read only, meaning you cannot delete
|
|
anything or modify any footprint at github directly. The aggregate library
|
|
type remains "Github" in your discussions, but it consists of a local R/W
|
|
portion and a remote R/O portion.
|
|
|
|
<p>Below is an fp-lib-table entry for the case without option
|
|
<b>allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir</b>:
|
|
|
|
<table>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<th>Nickname</th><th>Library Path</th><th>Plugin Type</th><th>Options</th><th>Description</th>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td>github</td><td>https://github.com/liftoff-sr/pretty_footprints</td><td>Github</td>
|
|
<td></td><td>Liftoff's GH footprints</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
|
|
Below is an fp-lib-table entry with the COW option given. Note the use of the environment variable
|
|
${HOME}, as an example only. The github.pretty directory is based in ${HOME}/pretty/. Anytime you
|
|
use option allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir, you will create that directory manually and it must
|
|
end in extension <b>.pretty</b>.
|
|
|
|
<table>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<th>Nickname</th><th>Library Path</th><th>Plugin Type</th><th>Options</th><th>Description</th>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
|
|
<tr>
|
|
|
|
<td>github</td><td>https://github.com/liftoff-sr/pretty_footprints</td><td>Github</td>
|
|
<td>allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir=${HOME}/pretty/github.pretty</td>
|
|
<td>Liftoff's GH footprints</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Any footprint loads will always give precedence to the local footprints
|
|
found in the pretty dir given by option
|
|
<b>allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir</b>. So once you have written to the COW
|
|
library's local directory by doing a footprint save, no github updates will
|
|
be seen when loading a footprint by the same name as one for which you've
|
|
written locally.
|
|
|
|
<p>Always keep a separate local *.pretty directory for each Github library,
|
|
never combine them by referring to the same directory more than once. Also,
|
|
do not also use the same COW (*.pretty) directory in a "KiCad" fp-lib-table
|
|
entry. This would likely create a mess. The COW directory should be manually
|
|
created in advance, and the directory name must end with ".pretty". The value
|
|
of the option <b>allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir</b> will be path
|
|
substituted with any environment variable strings embedded, just like the
|
|
"Library Path" is.
|
|
|
|
<p>What's the point of COW? It is to turbo-charge the sharing of footprints.
|
|
If you periodically email your COW pretty footprint modifications to the
|
|
Github repo maintainer, you can help update the Github copy. Simply email the
|
|
individual *.kicad_mod files you find in your COW directories. After you've
|
|
received confirmation that your changes have been committed up at github.com,
|
|
you can safely delete your COW file(s) and those from github.com will flow
|
|
down. Your goal should be to keep the COW file set as small as possible by
|
|
contributing frequently to the shared master copies at https://github.com.
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that if you use the module editor to delete a footprint and it is
|
|
present in the COW local dir, it will get deleted from there. However, it may
|
|
not be deleted from the library as a whole if the footprint of the same name
|
|
also exists in the github repo. In this case deleting the local copy will
|
|
simply unmask the one at the github repo. Remember, it is masked out if there
|
|
is a local COW copy, since the local copy always takes precedence. And
|
|
remember you cannot modify the github copy except by emailing a COW
|
|
modification to the repo maintainer.
|
|
|
|
<p>If you happen to be the repo maintainer, then the obvious solution for you
|
|
is to make your COW directory <b>be</b> your working copy directory. From
|
|
there you can push to github. And you can receive *.kicad_mod files by email
|
|
and put them into your local working copy directory also and do diffs,
|
|
reverting or denying when appropriate, editing when appropriate before
|
|
pushing or denying the change. Ultimately you would owe the sender either a
|
|
note of acceptance or denial by email.
