altium-part-importer

Add any catalog component (resistor, capacitor, inductor, IC, connector, diode…) to a
user's Altium Designer library with its LCSC Part # attached, so JLCPCB BOM +
pick-and-place exports carry it automatically. Drives Altium headlessly via the altium
Adom Desktop bridge.
Three paths (fastest first):
- Reuse an existing symbol for a new value (clone + parametric footprint — no fetch).
- Create a library from a downloaded Altium
.IntLib(one batched round-trip). - Append a part into an existing library (cross-lib copy).
Always surveys the user's existing libraries first (--list-libs) and never blind-creates.
For Adom's own machine pins/contacts, use adom-altium-library-importer instead.
Install
adompkg install barrett-land/altium-part-importer

# altium-part-importer

Add **any catalog component** (resistor, capacitor, inductor, IC, connector, diode…) to a
user's **Altium Designer** library with its **`LCSC Part #`** attached, so JLCPCB BOM +
pick-and-place exports carry it automatically. Drives Altium headlessly via the `altium`
Adom Desktop bridge.
Three paths (fastest first):
- **Reuse** an existing symbol for a new value (clone + parametric footprint — no fetch).
- **Create** a library from a downloaded Altium `.IntLib` (one batched round-trip).
- **Append** a part into an existing library (cross-lib copy).
Always surveys the user's existing libraries first (`--list-libs`) and never blind-creates.
For Adom's own machine pins/contacts, use `adom-altium-library-importer` instead.
## Install

adompkg install barrett-land/altium-part-importer
