EasyEDA PCB File Object

Note: PCB and Package use the same format.

EasyEDA PCB File Object is a JSON Object which allows you to hack your designs via another language, such as Javascript, Python, PHP, C, C++. The interesting thing is that your can control/modify your design in EasyEDA editor via Javascript. So you can use codes to create your own outline.

Rules

JSON Keys

Every EasyEDA graph unit has an unique key, such as “TRACK”, “PAD”, “VIA”, “TEXT”, “DIMENSION”, “FOOTPRINT”, “ARC”, “RECT”, “CIRCLE”, “HOLE”, “COPPERAREA”, “SOLIDREGION”, “DRCRULE”, “FABRICATION”

itemOrder key

Because of an object in EasyEDA is an unordered set of name/value pairs in JSON format, but EasyEDA’s graphs are ordered. We need an array to store the order of these objects. Every package has an itemOrder key and the whole JSON object has an itemOrder key.

Example

Open PCB Example

TRACK

"TRACK":{
"gge6":{
"gId":"gge6",
"layerid":"1",
"net":"S$7",
"pointArr":[
{
"x":357,
"y":171
},
{
"x":456,
"y":171
}
],
"strokeWidth":1
}
......
},

All tracks will be stored to TRACK key, their id will be taken as the key such as gge6.

SIGNALS

EasyEDA groups all of the objects with the same net name in one array.

FOOTPRINT

All packages will be stored to FOOTPRINT, their id will be taken as the key such as gge7. PCB package JSON is little bit complicated, it has lots of other JSON Keys, such as TRACK, ARC, RECT etc.

Note: please check the other shapes format via below JSON example
