Sometimes when a final product/design is complete, it is beneficial to have all the used files together in one location for easy sharing with anyone.
The freeze option can only be ran after a blueprint file is created, and from the blueprint file it will read what files to zip. By default it will only zip up the HDL files. A command-line variables -inc will be available where users can specify what label files to also include in the zip archive, such as a constraint file. The opposite of -inc will be -omit, similar to exporting a VHDL package file. Or, to include all labels and all gathered files in the blueprint, the user can pass a command-line argument -all.
The zipped archive will be found in the build/ directory.
Examples:
create blueprint file
legohdl export top
generate freeze files zip archive (maybe make them all read-only?).
Only grabs HDL files by default.
legohdl export -freeze
Grabs HDL files and all files found labelled with xdc and pin-plan (case insensitive)
legohdl export -freeze -inc="xdc,pin-plan"
Grabs HDL files and all found files excluding files labelled with py-model
legohdl export -freeze -omit="py-model"
Grabs every file listed in the blueprint file.
legohdl export -freeze -all
