footprint. There are several kinds of library supported by Pcbnew, each of which is supported by a "plugin": KiCad - native KiCad footprint libraries stored on a local filesystem in the .pretty format (folders field to add a description of the library entry. The option field contains special options that are plugin- specific and is generally blank. Although you cannot have duplicate library nicknames in the same location now. If you are using the Github plugin (no local copy), the footprints are loaded from Github when needed. 2.3.7. Using the KiCad plugin The KiCad plugin deals with native KiCad libraries that

这通常通过解压缩归档文件，从其他位置复制目录或克隆版本控制的存储库来 完成。 KiCad 插件没有指定任何类型的版本控制，但 Git 非常常用于跟踪库的更改， 这对于确保库数据的安全记录和备份至关重要。 跟踪变化很容易，并为官方的 KiCad Github 库做出贡献。 这是使用 Git 版本控 制软件完成的。 如果你想回馈，你必须在 Github 上分配回购，这样你就可以 发送拉请求。 如果您只是想在 库的只读部分中更新的封装将向下流动。 您的目标应该是通过 https://github.com 上的共享主副本频繁提供 COW 文件设置尽可能小。 提示 您还可以使用 KiCad 插件使用相关库的本地 Git 克隆为库开发做出贡 献，并向库维护者提交拉取请求。 缓存 GitHub 请求 GitHub 插件可能很慢，因为它必须先从 Internet 下载所有库才能使用它们。 Nginx 可以用作 GitHub the suitable plugin to read/write the .pretty library # (containing the .kicad_mod footprint files) src_type = IO_MGR.GuessPluginTypeFromLibPath( libpath ); # Rem: we can force the plugin type by using
