It looks like that could be a great addition to everyone's workflow. Could it be somehow integrated with openhardware.io bom section? https://hackaday.com/2018/09/04/interactive-kicad-boms-make-hand-assembly-a-breeze/
What do you think guys?

Nice project! Might be hard to integrate on openhardware.io though, as it looks like a KiCad plugin.

@hek it's a python script that can be runned standalone from the terminal. By the way it's the only way I could make it work on my system. Apparently some linux versions of KiCad 5 are build without scripting support, so it crashes with segfault when this script is present in kicad's plugin folder. But as a command line script it needs only *.kicad_pcb file as an argument to work.
