add

add <component>

This adds the given component to the current insertion point (component, pin) and moves the insertion point to the next component pin of the added component.

Example:

import lib

v5v = supply("5V")

at v5v
wire down 100
add R1 = res(10k)
wire down 100

Try

In the above example, after wire down 20 is executed, the insertion point is at the end of the wire. The add command creates a new res component with value of 10k and connects the wire to pin 1 of res. The insertion point is then moved to the next available pin, in this case, it is pin 2 of the newly created res.

The above example is equivalent to:

import lib

v5v = supply("5V")

at v5v
wire down 100

to R1 = res(10k) pin 1
at R1 pin 2

wire down 100

Try

In this case, the res(10k) component needs to be assigned to a variable since it has to be referenced later after the to command.
