convert_gdsfactory_netlist(gdsfactory_netlist)

Converts between gdsfactory inherent netlist to gine-compatible netlists.
convert_gdsfactory_netlist(gdsfactory_netlist: dict)[source]

Converts between gdsfactory inherent netlist to gine-compatible netlists.

GDSFactory netlist format:

netlist={
    "instances": {
        "lft": coupler,
        "top": waveguide,
        "rgt": coupler,
    },
    "connections": {
        "lft,out0": "rgt,in0",
        "lft,out1": "top,in0",
        "top,out0": "rgt,in1",
    },
    "ports": {
        "in0": "lft,in0",
        "in1": "lft,in1",
        "out0": "rgt,out0",
        "out1": "rgt,out1",
    },
}

gine netlist format:

netlist = {
    nodes: [
        {id: "heyhey", someproperty: "beer"},
        {id: "oioi", someproperty: "ale"},
    ],
    links: [
        {"source": "heyhey", "target": "oioi", "value": 1},
    ],
}

Part of the objective is to retain information of the ports, but I am trying to see how to do this in a force-graph implementation. Personally I am less interested in ports but it would be good for future compatibility. The problem is that I would have to make each port an element. I can save it as a property for now.
