//Description

...

The aim of this package is to provide to NanoXplore user a script template in order to implement a design in a standard format.
The template is made to ease user implementation and ease NX support to debug a project.

nxpython nxmap_script.py --variant NG-LARGE --progress synthesized                                 : Launch the script for NG-LARGE variant reloading synthesized project from previous run with same variant and same argument

nxpython nxmap_script.py --variant NG-LARGE --suffix try_1                                         : Launch the script for NG-LARGE variant adding a suffix in the project name. Useful in case of multiple tries changing scripts.
nxpython nxmap_script.py --variant NG-LARGE --topcellname switch_counter --topcelllib work         : Launch the script for NG-LARGE variant for a different top cell than the default one. Useful in case of unitary run before top run
nxpython nxmap_script.py --variant NG-LARGE --timingdriven Yes                                     : Launch the script for NG-LARGE variant with TimingDriven enablednxpython enabled

nxpython nxmap_script.py --variant NG-LARGE --bitstream Yes                                        : Launch the script for NG-LARGE variant generating a bitstream at the end

nxpython nxmap_script.py --variant NG-LARGE --constraints No                                       : Launch the script for NG-LARGE variant without any synthesis, placing or routing constraints defined in project.constraints.py

Multi Seed

Heareafter a shell script in order to launch a test with multiple seed (random or user list)

Code Block

#!/bin/bash

#1st arg: number of tests
#2nd arg: "random"/"list"  

#Example 1: ./multi_seed.sh 3 random  => Generates 3 tests with random values in range [1;10000]
#Example 2: ./multi_seed.sh 5 list    => Generates 2 tests with values in list seed_list 

#To generate a CSV report launch the following command:
#Example: python compare_sta.py switch_NG-MEDIUM_ Routed worstcase => Generates a CSV report for all folders containing "switch_NG-MEDIUM_" parsing STA files generated at Routed step in worstcase conditions

do

    then
