MyHDL

Setup

For Windows make sure you have Python and pip is installed

• Install Python here: https://www.python.org/downloads/
• Add the path to python.exe to the environment variables
• Download https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
• Install pip using python get-pip.py

Install MyHDL using pip install myhdl

Program

1. Clone or download and extract this repository
2. Open the VHDPlus project and program your code with MyHDL:
   http://www.myhdl.org/docs/examples/
   http://docs.myhdl.org/en/stable/manual/rtl.html
3. After you finished coding, right click on the python file and click on Run Python to convert the code. (Check if Extras/Settings/Detect external file changes is enabled)
4. The file blinky.vhd is created after running the python file. Import other created vhdl files, if you change the code.
5. If you use the MyHDL code together with VHDP, make sure your file with the Main component uses the new updated component and click on Compile

Language Server

1. Install the language server using pip install 'python-lsp-server[all]'
2. Go to Extras -> Settings -> Languages -> Python
3. Language server path is pylsp.exe for Windows and pylsp for Linux
4. Set the 'Active' checkbox
5. Deactivate the warnings in the 'Code Errors' window, because MyHDL has some ways to program that the language server doesn't like
