:alt: Build Status
v2x is a tool for converting specialized annotated Verilog models into XML needed for
`Verilog to Routing flow `_.
Documentation can be found at `https://python-symbiflow-v2x.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ `_.
Installation
------------
v2x can be installed from a local git repository using pip.
.. code-block::
cd python-symbiflow-v2x
pip install .
Alternatively, it can be installed from GitHub directly.
.. code-block::
pip install git+https://github.com/SymbiFlow/python-symbiflow-v2x.git#egg=python-symbiflow-v2x
Usage
-----
After installing v2x, you can run ``v2x`` to use it.
.. code-block::
v2x -h
usage: __main__.py [-h] [--top TOP] [--outfile OUTFILE] [--includes INCLUDES]
[--mode {pb_type,model}]
input.v [input.v ...]
Verilog to XML
positional arguments:
input.v One or more Verilog input files, that will be passed
to Yosys internally. They should be enough to generate
a flattened representation of the model, so that paths
through the model can be determined.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--top TOP Top level module, will usually be automatically
determined from the file name im.v
--outfile OUTFILE, -o OUTFILE
Output filename, default 'output.xml'
--includes INCLUDES Comma separate list of include directories.
--mode {pb_type,model}
Output file type, possible values are: pb_type and
model. Default value is pb_type
For example, to generate a pb_type xml file from adder.v, run
.. code-block::
v2x -o adder.pb_type.xml adder.v
Or, to generate a model xml file, run
.. code-block::
v2x --mode model -o adder.model.xml adder.v
v2x expects the module name to be the same as the file name. If it is different, make sure to specifiy it with the ``--top`` argument.
.. code-block::
v2x --top BLOCK -o adder.pb_type.xml adder.v
Tests
-----
The test cases are stored in tests/, and pytest can be used to run them.
.. code-block::
rm -rf build # run this step so that pytest uses the latest files for the tests
pytest -vv
If you are making changes to any python code, make sure that they follow the PEP8 style guide by running flake8.
.. code-block::
flake8 tests
flake8 v2x
Documentation
-------------
We use sphinx for our documentation and the files are stored in docs/. To host it locally (if you are planning to update it), you can use the Makefile inside.
First, run ``make env`` to prepare a Conda environment that contains the necessary packages to build and host the documentation site. After that, simply run ``make livehtml`` which starts a local server running at port 8000 with the documentation site.
.. code-block::
cd docs
make env
make livehtml
