modules export tool with lightweight GUI
To make our IP cores easier accessible to non-Linux, non-git users we
could imagine having a generation tool with simple GUI. This tool could
provide a list of modules (generated by hdlmake from our repositories
like wr-cores, general-cores) where a user could click&check the
modules he/she wants to use in the design. The tool then would copy all
necessary files from our repositories to a separate folder that the user
could include in his design. In case some extra modules are needed, the
same tool could be used to re-export the content of the included
directory with these new ip-cores.
The tool should take into account dependencies based on Manifests and
e.g. include appropriate modules from general-cores that are needed for
selected modules from wr-cores repository.
