Change Log

If the .required attribute is set True on an interface, that interface MUST be connected to from outside that module. Take the example of a LDO - you reasonably MUST connect to the power input and outputs. The antagonist concept to this is, like python adding a _leading_underscore to private variables.

I2C interfaces are now checked to ensure they have 900 to 100kΩ pullups on them.

You can access lists and dicts (from stdlib/fabll) using square braces!

(Beta) Windows support! atopile now runs on Windows.

​

Upgrading

No required changes for upgrading.

atopile’s package management system has had a huge upgrade!

To find packages, check out the entirely overhauled package index.

The new commands to packages are clearer and help keep the packages all in sync. See the updated package guide.

If you’re looking to publish your own packages, check out the guide.

​

Upgrading

• The ato-version field in your ato.yaml is now called requires-atopile. It remains a version spec, and we recommend that you set it to ^0.4.0.
• The structure of dependencies have changed! It’s best to remap them to the new registry, using the ato add command. Note: that many of the package names have also changed.
• The import identifiers have also changed - to match the new project identifiers. Update these to from "{package-identifier}/file.ato" import MyThing.

Firstly, thanks for using atopile! It’s been a ride, and we’re glad you’re here. 🙌

​

Changed Commands

Add --help after any command to see new options in the CLI. This is always the most accurate source of information.

​

I’m seeing a bunch of DeprecationWarning

There will be a LOT of new deprecation warnings you’ll see.

For the most part, it’s safe to ignore them for the minute, and we plan to make the breaking changes in 0.4.0

Upgrading will give you more access to features as they’re added, but there’s no need to rush if you’re content.

​

PCBs are now directly modified

This means no more need to open the PCB file, import the netlist and cycle.

ato build now directly modifies the PCB file as required on each build.

​

Standard Library (previously generics) is now shipped built-in!

This vastly improves our ability to version and iterate on the standard library, use the best practices and latest features.

See library for the latest and greatest.

It should be better documented. If this is important for you, please vote on the issue.
