A command-line tool and library for converting ASCII-art diagrams into beautiful SVG circuit schematics.
Works with Python 3.10+. It uses the new match feature in a few places. If you need to run Schemascii on an older version of Python, feel free to fork it and send me a pull request.
Command line usage:
usage: schemascii [-h] [-V] [-o OUT_FILE] [--padding PADDING] [--scale SCALE] [--stroke_width STROKE_WIDTH] [--stroke STROKE]
[--label {L,V,VL}]
in_file
Render ASCII-art schematics into SVG.
positional arguments:
in_file File to process.
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-V, --version show program's version number and exit
-o OUT_FILE, --out OUT_FILE
Output SVG file. (default input file plus .svg)
--padding PADDING Amount of padding to add on the edges.
--scale SCALE Scale at which to enlarge the entire diagram by.
--stroke_width STROKE_WIDTH
Width of the lines
--stroke STROKE Color of the lines.
--label {L,V,VL} Component label style (L=include label, V=include value, VL=both)
Python usage example:
import schemascii
# Render a file
svg = schemascii.render("my_circuit.txt")
# Render a string
text = ... # this is the text of your file
svg = schemascii.render("<string>", text)
# Provide options
svg = schemascii.render("my_circuit.txt",
padding=10,
scale=15,
stroke_width=2,
stroke="black",
label="LV")
# these are the defaults
