Command Line Interface

tsci import

tsci import searches for components across JLCPCB and the tscircuit registry, then lets you interactively select and install one into your project. It is a convenient way to discover and add parts without leaving the terminal.

Usage​

tsci import <query> [options]

Arguments​

  • query (required) – chip name, part number, or package name to search for

Options​

  • --jlcpcb – search JLCPCB components only
  • --lcsc – alias for --jlcpcb
  • --tscircuit – search tscircuit registry packages only

When no filter options are provided, both JLCPCB and the tscircuit registry are searched.

Examples​

Search everywhere and pick a component interactively:
