# FLGen

FLGen provides a DSL to write filelists and generator tool to generate a filelist which is given to EDA tools.

## Install

### Ruby

FLGen is written in [Ruby](https://www.ruby-lang.org) programing language and its required version is 3.0 or later. You need to install Ruby before using FLGen. See [this page](https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/) for further details.

### Install FLGen

Use the command below to isntall FLGen.

```
$ gem install flgen
```

## Filelist

FLGen prives APIs listed below to describe your filelists.

* `source_file(path, from: nil)`
* Add the given source file to the current filelist.
* `file_list(path, from: nil)`
* Load the given filelist.
* `library_file(path, from: nil)`
* Add the given file to the list of library files.
* `include_directory(path, from: nil)`
* Add the given directory to the list of include direcotries.
* `library_directory(path, from: nil)`
* Add the given directory to the list of library directories.
* `find_files(patterns, from: nil)`
* Return an array of filenames matching the given patterns strings.
* See [here](https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/3.2/Dir.html#method-c-glob) for the format of a pattern string.
* `find_file(patterns, from: nil)`
* Return the first filename matching the given pattern strings.
* `file?(path, from: :current)`
* Return `true` if the given file exists.
* `directory?(path, from: :current)`
* Return `true` if the given directory exists.
* `define_macro(name, value = nil)`
* Define a text macro.
* `undefine_macro(name)`
* Undefine the given macro.
* `macro?(name)`/`macro_defined?(name)`
* Return `true` if the given macro is defined.
* `macro(name)`
* Return the value of the given macro.
* `env?(name)`
* Return `true` if the givne environment variable is defined.
* `env(name)`
* Retunr the value of the given environment variable.
* `compile_argument(argument, tool: nil)`
* Add the given argument to the list of compile arguments.
* If `tool` is specified the given argument is added only when `tool` is matched with the targe tool.
* `runtime_argumetn(argument, tool: nil)`
* Add the given argument to the list of runtime arguments.
* If `tool` is specified the given argument is added only when `tool` is matched with the targe tool.
* `target_tool?(tool)`
* Return `true` if the given tool is matched with the targe tool.
* `default_search_path(**search_paths)`
* Change the default behavior when the `from` argument is not specified.
* `reset_default_search_path(*target_types)`
* Reset the default behavior when the `from` argument is not specified.

FLGen's filelist is designed as an inernal DSL with Ruby. Therefore you can use Ruby's syntax. For example:

```ruby
if macro? :GATE_SIM
source_file 'foo_top.v.gz' # synthsized netlist
else
source_file 'foo_top.sv' # RTL
end
```

### About the `from` argument

The `from` argument is to specify how to search the given file or directory. You can specify one of three below.

* a directory path
* Search the given file or directory from the directory path specified by the `from` argument.
* `:cwd`
* Search the given file or directory from the current working directory.
* `:current`
* Search the given file or directory from the directory where the current filelist is.
* `:root`
* Search the given file or directory from the repository root directories where the `.git` directory is.
* Serch order is descending order.
* from upper root direcotries to local root direcoty
* `:local_root`
* Search the given file or directory from the repository root directory where the current filelist belongs to.

Default behaviors when the `from` argument is not spcified are listed below:

| API name | Default `from` argument |
|:------------------|:------------------------|
| source_file | :current |
| file_list | :root |
| library_file | :current |
| include_directory | :current |
| library_directory | :current |
| find_files | :current |
| find_file | :current |

You can change the above default behaviors by using the `default_search_path` API.
In addition, you can reset the default behaviors by using the `reset_default_search_path` API.

```ruby
default_search_path source_file: :root, file_list: :current
source_file 'foo.sv' # FLGen will search the 'foo.sv' file from the root directories.
file_list 'bar.list.rb' # FLGen will eaarch the 'bar.list.rb' file from the directory where this file list is.

reset_default_search_path :source_file, :file_list
source_file 'baz.sv' # FLGen will search the 'baz.sv' file from the directory where this file list is.
file_list 'qux.list.rb' # FLGen will eaarch the 'qux.list.rb' file from the root directories.
```

#### Example

This is an exmaple directory structure.

```
foo_project
+-- .git
+-- bar_project
| +-- .git
| +-- common
| | `-- common.sv
| `-- src
| + bar.list.rb
| ` bar.sv
`-- common
`-- common.sv
```

* `source_file 'bar.sv', from: :current` @ `bar.list.rb`
* `foo_project/bar_project/bar.sv` is added.
* `source_file 'common/common.sv', from: :root` @ `bar.list.rb`
* `foo_project/common/common.sv` is added
* `source_file 'common/bar_common.sv', from: :local_root` @ `bar.list.rb`
* `foo_project/bar_project/common/common.sv` is added

## Generator command

`flgen` is the generator command and generate a filelist which is given to EDA tools from the given filelists. Command line options are listed below.

* `--define-macro=MACRO[,MACRO]`
* Define the given macros
* `--include-directory=DIR[,DIR]`
* Specify include directories
* `--compile`
* If this option is specified the generated filelist contains source file path, arguments to define macros, arguments to specify include directories and arguments specified by `compile_argument` API.
* `--runtime`
* If this option is specified the generated filelist contains arguments specified by `runtime_argumetn`
* `--tool=TOOL`
* Specify the target tool.
* `--rm-ext=EXT[,EXT]`
* Remove specifyed file extentions from source file path.
* `--collect-ext=EXT[,EXT]`
* The generated filelist contains source file pash which has the specified file extentions.
* `--format=FORMAT`
* Specify the format of the generated filelist.
* If no format is specified FLGen will generate a generated filelist for major EDA tools.
* If `vivado-tcl` is specified FLGen will generate a TCL script to load source files for Vivado synthesis.
* If `filelist-xsim` is specified FLGen will generate a filelist for Vivado simulator.
* `--output=FILE`
* Specify the path of the generated filelist
* The generated fileslist is output to STDOUT if no path is specified.
* `--[no-]print-header`
* Specify whether or not the output filelist includes its file header or not.
* `--source-file-only`
* The generated filelist contains source file path only if this option is specified.

## Example

You can find an exmpale from [here](https://github.com/pezy-computing/flgen/tree/master/sample).

```
$ flgen --output=filelist.f sample/foo.list.rb
$ cat filelist.f
// flgen version 0.17.0
// applied arguments
// --output=filelist.f
// sample/foo.list.rb
+define+BAR_0
+define+BAR_1=1
+incdir+/home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/bar
+incdir+/home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/bar/baz
-y /home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/bar/bar_lib
-v /home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/foo_lib.sv
-foo_0
/home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/foo.sv
/home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/bar/bar.sv
/home/taichi/workspace/pezy/flgen/sample/bar/baz/baz.sv
```

[rggen-sample-testbench](https://github.com/rggen/rggen-sample-testbench) uses FLGen. This can be a practical example.
