granjow/kicad-interactive-html-bom repository overview

The Interactive HTML BOM plugin⁠ for KiCad requires an X server. This image contains KiCad, the plugin, and xvfb, allowing to generate the BOMs headless (e.g. on CI/CD) with the virtual X server from xvfb.

The convenience script in the root directory generates a BOM with the correct commands and changes its file permissions to match the input file’s.

⁠Usage

With the following file structure:

MyProject/
  MyProject.kicad_pcb

run:

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd)/MyProject:/_pcb granjow/kicad-interactive-html-bom /create-bom.sh /_pcb/MyProject.kicad_pcb
