Custom KiCAD Footprint and Symbol List?

[joelvonrotz]

Hello,
I've noticed that the default suggestions (in the component creation interface) are the names of the official KiCAD library. I'm maintaining my own library and I would love to have suggestions for my own library...

Is it possible to assign a list of custom KiCAD Footprints and Symbols names to PartDB?

The KiCad auto complete is done in

Part-DB-server/src/Form/Part/EDA/KicadFieldAutocompleteType.php

Line 40 in 600686c

public const FOOTPRINT_PATH = 'kicad/footprints.txt';

The text files footprints.txt and symbols.txt are located in /public/kicad, so I assume you could manually place your own files there.
