This is a monorepo for all the loose packages published by atopile.
Project-specific packages are published from their own repos.
Development
Conventions
Package name restrictions:
-
kebab-case
-
starts with a letter
-
"[a-z][0-9-]+"
-
project directories MUST have the same name as the package
-
drivers for ICs SHOULD be in the format "-x?". eg ti-bq240x
- there should be a single "x" on the end if there are multiple variants of the same part family
- the manufacturer stub should be omitted if the they already do this for ths
-
modules and files should be named like "x?"
- "x" is optional if there is only one variant of the part family
- omit the manufacturer stub from the filename
-
components should be named like ""
-
build names should be:
- "ref-" for reference designs
- "test-" for test builds
- "example-" for example builds
- if only one IC/set of builds exist in a package, the name can be omitted

Building Packages
To build all packages in the repository, use the build-all.sh script:
# Build all packages
./build-all.sh
# Build all packages with specific flags (e.g., --frozen)
./build-all.sh --frozenThe script will attempt to build each package and provide a summary report of successes and failures.

Questions
What parts does the Cell use?
64 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Cell KiCad files?
From the atopile/packages repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is packages/archive/cellsim/layouts/cell/cell.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Cell design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
