Main Goals

This package provides a unified abstract project model for HDL designs and EDA tools. Third-party frameworks can derive own classes and implement additional logic to create a concrete project model for their tools.

Frameworks consuming this model can build higher level features and services on top of such a model, while supporting multiple input sources.

Data Model

1. The toplevel element is a Project, which contains one or multiple designs.
2. A Design is a variant of a project and contains filesets.
3. A FileSet contains files or further sub-filesets.
4. A File represents a single file. E.g. source files, configuration files, constraint files.
5. A VHDLLibrary represents a group of VHDLSourceFiles being compiled into the same VHDL library.

Features

• Construct a project model:

  • top-down (project → design → fileset → file) or
  • bottom-up (file → fileset → design → project) or
  • parsing a project file.

• Designs, filesets and files can use absolute or relative paths.

  • ResolvedPath returns the resolved absolute path to an object.

• Projects, designs, filesets and files can be validated (e.g. if the path exists).

• Projects, designs, filesets and files can have user-defined attributes.

  • User-defined attributes are resolved bottom-up.

Project File Readers

OSVVM *.pro File Reader

ProjectModel can read *.pro files and extract source files. Included *.pro files are represented as sub-filesets.

Xilinx Vivado *.xpr Reader

ProjectModel can read *.xpr files and extract source, constraint and simulation files while preserving the fileset structure.

Use Cases

• Reading OSVVM's *.pro files.
• Reading Xilinx Vivado's *.xpr files.

Examples

from pathlib import Path
from pyEDAA.ProjectModel import Project, Design, FileSet, VHDLSourceFile

print(f"Current working directory: {Path.cwd()}")
projectDirectory = Path.cwd() / "../project"
print(f"Project directory: {projectDirectory!s} - {projectDirectory.exists()}")

project = Project("myProject", rootDirectory=projectDirectory)
designA = Design("designA", project=project, directory=Path("designA"))
designAFileset = FileSet("srcA", design=designA)
for vhdlFilePath in designAFileset.ResolvedPath.glob("*.vhdl"):
	designAFileset.AddFile(VHDLSourceFile(vhdlFilePath))

libFileset = FileSet("lib", Path("../lib"), design=designA)
for vhdlFilePath in libFileset.ResolvedPath.glob("*.vhdl"):
	libFileset.AddFile(VHDLSourceFile(vhdlFilePath))

print(f"All VHDL files in {designA.Name}:")
for file in designA.Files(fileType=VHDLSourceFile):
	print(f"  {file.Path}")
