Crate lib_gerber_edit 

lib_gerber_edit

Manipulation library for RS-274X (Extended Gerber) and Excellon drill files, built on top of gerber_parser.

All lengths exposed through the public API are in millimetres.

Key types

Type	Description
Board	Collection of mixed Gerber/Excellon layers
GerberLayerData	Single RS-274X layer
AsciiText	Renders vector text into a Gerber layer
LayerType	Identifies each layer (copper, silkscreen, drill …)

Traits

Trait	Description
LayerCorners	Bounding box (get_corners) and size (get_size)
LayerTransform	Translate by a Pos offset
LayerScale	Scale by independent X/Y factors
LayerMerge	Merge two layers or boards of the same type
LayerStepAndRepeat	Tile a pattern across a grid

Quick start

use lib_gerber_edit::board::Board;
use lib_gerber_edit::{LayerTransform, Pos};
use std::path::Path;

// Load every recognised layer from a directory.
let mut board = Board::from_folder(Path::new("gerbers/")).unwrap();

// Shift the whole board by (10 mm, 5 mm).
board.transform(&Pos { x: 10.0, y: 5.0 });

// Write back to a different directory.
board.write_to_folder(Path::new("output/")).unwrap();

Rendering text

use lib_gerber_edit::gerber_ascii::{AsciiText, HAlign, VAlign};
use lib_gerber_edit::layer::LayerType;

let fmt = AsciiText::new(3.0)           // 3 mm character height
    .h_align(HAlign::Center)
    .v_align(VAlign::Middle);

// Same format object — render two different strings.
let rev1 = fmt.build("Rev 1.0", LayerType::SilkScreenTop);
let rev2 = fmt.build("Rev 2.0", LayerType::SilkScreenTop);
