~ Documentation all moved under `docs/source`, arranged hierarchically according to the table of contents ~ `Klayout` changed to `KLayout` in all logging messages ~ Readme rewritten to just be concise, parts of it isolated into standalone documentation ~ RTD builds no longer use conda (saves some time) ~ Fixed all broken links

# Interactive Mode
|
|
You may run the flow interactively by using the `-interactive` option:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./flow.tcl -interactive
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A tcl shell will be opened where the openlane package is automatically sourced:
|
|
```
|
|
% package require openlane
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, you should be able to run the following main commands:
|
|
|
|
0. Any **valid** Tcl code.
|
|
1. `prep -design <design> -tag <tag> -config <config> -init_design_config -overwrite` similar to the command line arguments, design is required and the rest is optional
|
|
2. `run_synthesis`
|
|
3. `run_floorplan`
|
|
4. `run_placement`
|
|
5. `run_cts`
|
|
6. `run_routing`
|
|
7. `write_powered_verilog` followed by `set_netlist $::env(routing_logs)/$::env(DESIGN_NAME).powered.v`
|
|
8. `run_magic`
|
|
9. `run_magic_spice_export`
|
|
10. `run_magic_drc`
|
|
11. `run_lvs`
|
|
12. `run_antenna_check`
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above commands can also be written in a file and passed to `flow.tcl`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./flow.tcl -interactive -file <file>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A more detailed list of all the commands supported by openlane could be found [here][0].
|
|
|
|
**Note 1:** Currently, configuration variables have higher priority over the above commands so if `RUN_MAGIC` is 0, command `run_magic` will have no effect.
|
|
|
|
**Note 2:** Currently, most of these commands must be run in the flow sequence and no steps should be skipped.
|
|
|
|
**Note 3:** You can pass the -design, -tag, etc.. flags to ```./flow.tcl -interactive``` directly without the need of entering the interactive mode and then executing the prep command.
