The original repository is now located on my own git-server at [https://git.goodcleanfun.de/tmeissner/cocotb_with_ghdl](https://git.goodcleanfun.de/tmeissner/cocotb_with_ghdl)
It is mirrored to github with every push, so both should be in sync.
# cocotb_with_ghdl
*At the moment, this repo is in an early state and serves as a learning tool for me. So it contains a a lot of quirks and code which can be done much better by cocotb-professionals.*
A collection of examples of using [cocotb](https://www.cocotb.org/) for functional verification of VHDL designs with [GHDL](https://github.com/ghdl/ghdl).
This is a project with the purpose to learn using cocotb with GHDL. It is intended for my simple (and more complex in future) experiments with using the Python language instead of VHDL or SV to verify digital designs.
It is recommended to use an up-to-date version of GHDL as potential bugs are fixed very quickly. You can build GHDL from source or use one of the Docker images of the [hdl containers project](https://hdl.github.io/containers/) (recommended). For example the `hdlc/sim:scipy` docker image. This image contains a recent version of cocotb and a C++ compiler (needed to build some wheels during installing requirements with pip).
Have fun!
## Quickstart guide
### Get and start docker container
```
$ git clone https://git.goodcleanfun.de/tmeissner/cocotb_with_ghdl.git
$ cd cocotb_with_ghdl
$ git clone https://git.goodcleanfun.de/tmeissner/libvhdl.git
$ docker run --rm -ti --volume=$(pwd):/build -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY \
--volume /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix hdlc/sim:scipy /bin/bash
```
### Run default test (UART TX)
