kigadgets.layer¶

Layer handling utilities for KiCad PCB objects.

This module provides functions and classes for converting between KiCad layer names and layer IDs, supporting both board-specific and standard layer mappings.

Classes¶

LayerSet

Functions¶

`load_std_layers`(→ None)
`get_board_layer_id`(→ int)	Get layer id for layer name in board, or std.
`get_board_layer_name`(→ str)	Get layer name for layer_id in board, or std.
`get_std_layer_name`(→ str)	Get layer name from layer id.
`get_std_layer_id`(→ int)	Get layer id from layer name

Module Contents¶

kigadgets.layer.load_std_layers() → None¶

kigadgets.layer.get_board_layer_id(board: Board | None, layer_name: str) → int¶: Get layer id for layer name in board, or std.

kigadgets.layer.get_board_layer_name(board: Board | None, layer_id: int) → str¶: Get layer name for layer_id in board, or std.

kigadgets.layer.get_std_layer_name(layer_id: int) → str¶: Get layer name from layer id.

kigadgets.layer.get_std_layer_id(layer_name: str) → int¶

Get layer id from layer name

If it is already an int just return it.

class kigadgets.layer.LayerSet(layer_names: List[str], board: Board | None = None)¶

property native_obj: Any¶

classmethod wrap(instance: Any) → LayerSet¶: Similar to BoardItem.wrap, but not inherited from BoardItem.

property layers: List[str]¶: Returns the list of Layer names in this LayerSet.

add_layer(layer_name: str) → LayerSet¶

remove_layer(layer_name: str) → LayerSet¶
