Hi!, thanks!, Yesterday I was struggling through the same problem trying to generate some documentation for a project we must assemble & deliver soon.
I still miss some fields (user inserted) that we (Tome Verissimo, hi!) include in the schematic parts, like supplier codes, etc.. At this moment, the .csv BOM generator can build a CSV with user fields, but if you have variable fields in your parts part1: field_name_A: "aaa content" field_name_X: "xxx content" part2: field_name_A: "aaa content" field_name_B: "bob content" field_name_X: "xxx content" the field names get lost in export, and the the columns move back and forth across the rows. So I was thinking to add an extra .CSV writer that takes care of this, and, may be even some kind of json writer, that writes a dictionary that can be used for interoperability/scripts. I'd love to have scripting in eeschema, but yet I must get the full stack of pcbnew documented properly, and eeschema is in the refactoring queue AFAIK. Greetings, Mike.
