The ato
command line interface is the main way to interact with atopile.
ato
.
app
is the name of the app you’re running.command
is the command; think of it as a “menu option” the app provides.options
are the options for the command, typically zero to many instances of --some-option option-value
.arguments
are just like options, but they only take a value. Their position tells the app which argument they are.--help
to the app/command/subcommand to get more information at any point.-v
is a special option, called a “flag,” which doesn’t take a value. Its presence or absence is what matters. It increases the amount of information the compiler prints -> increase its verbosity.
The -v
flag is an app option, so to use it, place it right after the app name.
ato build
:
ato
code and the build process, it should be a little more clear what’s happening now in the quickstart project.
Resistor
module
, named App
.
This is the entry point of the build (see your ato.yaml
).Resistor
value
attribute
This constrains what components the compiler can pick for this resistor.
For picking, the rated resistance must be wholly within the value
attribute. The precise way to say this in more CS terms / what atopile says internally is that the picked resistor’s resistance must be a subset of the quantity interval defined by the value attribute.module
, named VoltageDivider
This means you can trivially have as many VoltageDivider
s as you want, all configured properly with all the same interfaces."""
