codesys-toolkitv1.0.0

Quickly scaffold new CODESYS projects from templates, automatically creating POU/GVL/DUT objects and wiring tasks. Speeds up project setup from hours to minutes and ensures consistency across projects.

When modifications are needed, the toolkit patches only changed POU files based on MD5 snapshots, reducing risk of introducing errors and cutting down recompilation time. Ideal for iterative development cycles.

Automates the compile-check cycle, parsing errors and warnings into logs that can be fed back into AI-assisted coding workflows. This closes the loop between code generation and verification.

The env_setup script automatically locates InoProShop installations and profiles, storing them in env.json. This eliminates manual configuration errors and streamlines onboarding for new team members.

Offer a service to migrate legacy PLC projects into a structured st/ directory with automated export and patch tools, enabling clients to maintain cleaner codebases with less manual effort.

Combine this toolkit with AI code generation (like ChatGPT) to provide a subscription-based platform where users can generate, patch, and compile PLC code automatically. Monetize via monthly or annual subscriptions.

Offer consulting services to help manufacturing companies adopt automated PLC programming practices, including setup of the toolkit and training their staff. Charge for consulting hours and training workshops.
