Crate gerber_parser

Gerber-parser

This is a parser in rust for Gerber file. The underlying representation is built on the gerber-types crate.

Gerber files are the de-facto file format for PCB manufacturing, but are also used in other context, such as in microfabrication. It is an old format with a lot of baggage, but the specification is well documented, there is an online free viewer available to check your designs, and the format is plaintext making it easy to work with.

There are sibling crates to this crate, as follows:

• gerber-types - underlying types for the parser - https://github.com/MakerPnP/gerber-types
• gerber-viewer - a pure rust gerber viewer - https://github.com/MakerPnP/gerber-viewer

This crate has matured, the API is simple and should be fairly stable now. This crate is the primary driver to changes for the gerber-types crate.
