### 6.2 BOM netlister backend

The BOM (Bill of Material) netlister backend by Matthew Ettus matt@ettus.com is a quick and simple Bill Of Materials generator.

It takes a configuration file which tells what component information should be output in the resulting netlist for a schematic (i.e. vendor, part number). The config file must be named `attribs` and be in the current working directory. The user has to specify what attributes should be output.

Sample config file contents:

    device
    label
    name

To make BOM, just do:

    lepton-netlist -g bom -o schematic.bom schematic.sch
