# device_db.py File
|
|
|
|
`device_db.py` file contains the database of the devices and their respective interfaces within the firmware/gateware.
|
|
It is generated from JSON description file and tied with the configuration and the gateware.
|
|
|
|
## Generating the device_db.py File
|
|
|
|
In some cases you may need to regenerate `device_db.py`, like switching clock source or changing the configuration.
|
|
Also it is must-do in most cases once firmware/gateware is being updated (for example, when you add, move or remove EEM
|
|
cards).
|
|
Luckily, it is fairly easy to do. For standalone systems:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
artiq_ddb_template -o device_db.py <standalone variant>.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For DRTIO systems:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
artiq_ddb_template -o device_db.py -s 1 <satellite1>.json -s 2 <satellite2>.json <...> -s N <satelliteN>.json <master>.json
|
|
```
