Python based scripting on Cadence SPB

particlereddy

Hi,

newbie question,

This question might have been asked many times.

[1] I could not find any python script based possibility for DRC check automation scripting using python. Did my homework before asking.

[2] all I see is SKILL based scripting. 

[q1] Please point me to any UserGuide or programming manual in python [if any]?

[q2] Is it possible via C++?

Thanks

    Hi!


    I apologize for the late response

    Examples using a report from Allegro to export DRC to a file (.csv).

    Don't launcher Allegro.
    100% python script.

    code Python

    import subprocess

    input_data = "/path/to/your/file.brd"
    output_csv = "/temp/folder/report_drc.csv" // create before run
    cmd = ["report", "-v", "drc", input_data, output_csv]

    subprocess.run(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)

    Regards,
