Hi, nice work here.

Would be great if you could add some info about how to contribute repos not yet in this collection.

Found this https://github.com/natsfr/kicad-components and would like to add.

I was following the installation instructions and hit this error:

Apparently gxargs the GNU version of xargs is no longer in Homebrew, so I switched to GNU parallel and it went fine.

I hesitated to file a pullrequest since I'm not sure if you want to require users to install GNU parallel.

In any case, nice collection of kicad libs, thanks a ton for this effort!

Back to Ubuntu from OSX and giving your footprints compilation a good try :)

I just found this:

Errors were encountered loading footprints:
PARSE_ERROR: Expecting 'circle, rectangle, oval, or trapezoid' in input/source '/home/romanvg/dev/kicad_footprints/adamjvr/KiCAD-OnHand-Lib/OnHand-Components.pretty/C1206.kicad_mod' line 20 offset 14 from /build/kicad-lOwy61/kicad-4.0.4+dfsg1/common/dsnlexer.cpp : Expecting() : line 369

Would it be possible to run the kicad lexer standalone or sth on travis so that those don't ever show up later on?

#idea

The script that was provided here [1] is very awesome. it generates a pdf catalog containing all footprints and with its image preview.
Maybe you can add a caller script that will traverse all repositories and generate a catalog for each one inside a common directory.

I have installed kiCad nightly 5.99, which will be the upcomming version 6. But apparently this method is not compatible with 5.99. Is there a fix for that?

I'm using the window branch, when generating fp_lib_table using Git Bash, it becomes :-

(lib (name "digikey/digikey-footprints.pretty")(type KiCad) (uri "/cygdrive/c/Users/stanley/Documents/Github/kicad_footprints/digikey/digikey-footprints.pretty") (options "") (descr ""))

This is a Win 7 32-bit version..

I have another Win 7 64-bit version with no such issues ...
Any idea why ??

Hi,

I am running KiCad on Windows. I've successfully generated a fp-lib-table file using Python with generate_table script and then moved it to C:\Users\%username%\.config\kicad directory. However, I am not seeing the footprints in CvPcb when I am loading it. Am I missing something or this is not supported?

For what it's worth, there are several fp-lib-table files in KiCad installation directory, however I am not sure what is the right one to replace if that's what is necessary.

Thanks!

I believe this hasn't been included yet:

Note this is different than https://github.com/Digi-Key/digikey-kicad-library, which has been added.

As reported in #2. Not up-to date submodules will fail on init:

After running ./generate-table and copying it into the OSX location for it (doing a .backup of the former first as advised in the README):

~/Library/Preferences/kicad/fp-lib-table

I'm getting this couple of footprint parsing errors while running CvPcb on KiCad 4.0.5:

Errors were encountered loading footprints:
PARSE_ERROR: Expecting 'circle, rectangle, oval, or trapezoid' in input/source '/Users/romanvg/dev/kicad_modules/kicad_footprints/lowstar/IPC7351C-Nominal.pretty/CAPC160X80X87L35N.kicad_mod' line 24 offset 14 from /Users/ansible/4.0.5/kicad-mac-packaging-4.0.0/kicad/common/dsnlexer.cpp : Expecting() : line 369

I noticed that when I run ./update there's now a bunch of files that start with (footprint that cause footprint loading to fail completely in KiCad 6.0.10 and earlier. You can reproduce this locally by running python load_all.py where you'll get an IO_ERROR.

My previous strategy was to remove repos when they use unstable features, but we lose a lot of footprints that way that are actually still compatible. It's also more work for me. Would be better to have a script to remove these files.

Seeed Studio have Kicad OPL but they are in zip format...

https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/OPL_Kicad_Library

Pls help to add them to this great KiCad footprint collections...

Thanks

The espressif kicad libraries contains ESP related footprints and symbols.

The LICENSE.md states:

These are the same license conditions as those used by KiCad project for the official libraries: https://www.kicad.org/libraries/license/.

This library contains e.g. the ESP32-C3 module footprints and symbols.

Please remove or adapt link.

It'd be convenient if we could ignore any number of these submodules. A simple ignore_modules file would suffice, one ignored submodule name per newline. This way I could ignore some repos, for example the official one (because I already have it in my distro).
