PySherlock is a Python client library for the Ansys Sherlock product.
Overview
Ansys Sherlock is a reliability physics-based electronics design tool that provides
fast and accurate life predictions for electronic hardware at the component,
board, and system levels in early stage design.
PySherlock provides Pythonic access to Sherlock’s functions, enabling
users to automate and customize their specific workflows.
With PySherlock, you can perform many tasks, including these:
Launch a Sherlock gRPC server and a Sherlock client.
Import ECAD files and generate project reports.
Define life cycle events and profiles.
Generate a stackup and update a stackup layer.
Update a project parts list.
Perform layer view operations such as updating a mount point’s location.
Export a trace or trace reinforcement model for integration with Ansys Workbench.
Execute one or more analyses.
Dependencies
You must have a licensed copy of Ansys Sherlock
installed either on your local machine or a remote machine. To use a remote session, a connection to the
remote machine must be available from your Python program.
Getting Started
PySherlock uses an environment variable called AWP_ROOT<ver>, where <ver> is the Sherlock release number,
such as 242 for release 2024 R2. Each release version should have its own environment variable. This variable
is how PySherlock finds a Sherlock installation for a specific version. If there are multiple versions,
PySherlock will pick the latest.
On a Windows System, the environment variable AWP_ROOT<ver> is configured by the Ansys installer.
On a Linux system, the AWP_ROOT<ver> environment variable must be configured by the user. It must point
to the absolute path of an Ansys installation directory. For example, if Sherlock 24R2 is installed
in the following location /opt/ansys_inc/v242/sherlock/ , then an environment variable named AWP_ROOT242
must be created and set to /opt/ansys_inc/v242/. If there are multiple versions of Ansys tools installed,
similar environment variables must be created for those versions.
For the rest of the setup please refer to the tutorial videos below.
