KiCad 9.0 Python API

The API is already stable (meaning we are already following our stability practices when making changes during 9.0)

We will make the decision whether or not to completely remove the old SWIG support in V10 based on what we know about the new API’s ability to support people’s needs. If you wait until V10 to test whether or not the API meets your needs, and you happen to have a need that nobody else asked for earlier, you risk losing that ability until it can be re-added.

Ah, I see…
I enabled the trace output for the API subsystem. The strange thing is that after I did that the plugin icon was loaded. :confused: But I found a few issues and it still works after removing the environment variables again.
Thank you!

So, I am just trying to create the schematic and layout using Skidl but it is not working for creating schematic so now I get to know about this API. So any one please tell me that this API can be used for the above thing I mentioned.

@devbisme is the developer and contributor here.

There is no API for schematics yet, new API (and old one) is pcb only for now.


The program freezes here

Thanks for the clarification qu1ck

Just wanted to make sure that my thank you post (Thank you. Thank you. Thank you) also reaches you directly :slight_smile:
