Support for KiCad V6 ?? #13

Closed softfoot closed 2 years ago

softfoot commented 2 years ago

We use this plugin a lot as it provides a consistent submission to our PCB suppliers.

We are very keen to get a version that runs under V6.

Regards, Dave

It works fine for me with win11 + KiCad 6.0.2. Are you having problems?

softfoot commented 2 years ago

The only version of the gerberzipper plugin I can find (https://github.com/g200kg/kicad-gerberzipper !!YOURS!!) does not have a json file in the root directory or the correct directory structure for v6 as I understand it. I bodged one up that works for me, where did you get the version that works for you ??? Dave

I see, I understand.

I copied the plugin directly to the required directory, but you're talking about json data for KiCad 6's "Plugins and Content Manager", right?

I don't currently know the data structure required for "Plugins and Content Manager". I can't find any documentation about this.

If you know, please let me know.
