In order to start a project with Zero Knowledge Proof, please refer to etherlime init command.

Available Commands:

Circuit Compilation

• etherlime zk compile Running this command will compile a circuit

  file located in zero-knowledge-proof/circuits and generates a

  new folder compiled-circuits.

Establish Trusted Setup

• etherlime zk setup Running this command will establish a trusted

  setup based on compiled circuit and generates a folder `trusted

  setupwithproving_keyandverification_key`. The command

  reads the compiled circuit from

  zero-knowledge-proof/compiled-circuits.

Generate ZK Proof

• etherlime zk proof [signal] [circuit] [provingKey] Running this

  command will generates a proof based on compiled circuit, public

  signal input and proving key. A new folder generated-proof is

  generated with proof and public_signals. This proof can be

  used for off-chain Zero-Knowledge-Proof verification.

  • Parameters:

    • signal - [Optional] Specifies the file with public

      signals input to be used for generating a proof.

      Defaults to input.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/input folder.

    • circuit - [Optional] Specifies the compiled circuit

      for checking of matched signals. Defaults to:

      circuit.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/compiled-circuits folder.

    • provingKey - [Optional] Specifies the prooving key

      to be used for generating a proof. Defaults to:

      circuit_proving_key.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/trusted-setup folder.

Verify Proof (Off-chain)

• etherlime zk verify [publicSignals] [proof] [verifierKey]

  Running this command will generates a verifier based on public

  signals file that comes out of the proof command, the proof itself

  and verifier key. A new folder verified-proof is generated with

  output.json file.

  • Parameters:

    • publicSignals - [Optional] Specifies the file with

      signals to be used for generating verifying a proof.

      Defaults to circuit_public_signals.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/generated-proof folder.

    • proof - [Optional] Specifies the compiled proof that

      would be used for generating a proof based on it.

      Defaults to: circuit_proof.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/generated-proof folder.

    • verifierKey - [Optional] Specifies the verifier key

      to be used for generating a proof. Defaults to:

      circuit_verification_key.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/trusted-setup folder.

    • output.json file has two params:

      • verified - whatever the proof is verified or not

      • timestamp - identifier for the time that event occurs

Generate Smart Contract for On-Chain Verification

• etherlime zk generate [verifierKey] Generates a verifier smart

  contract based on verification key which can be used for on-chain

  verification. The smart contract is written in contracts folder

  and it is ready to be compiled and deployed with `etherlime

  compileandetherlime deploy`. The verifier smart contract has a

  public view method verifyProof that can be called for on-chain

  verification. You can generate the call parameters with `etherlime

  zk-generate-call` cli command.

  • Parameters:

    • verifierKey - [Optional] Specifies the verifier key

      to be used for generating a verifier smart contract.

      Defaults to: circuit_verification_key.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/generated-proof folder.

Generate output call based for On-chanin Verification

• etherlime zk call [publicSignals] [proof] Running this command

  will generates a call based on proof and public signals. A new

  folder generated-call is generated with generatedCall.json

  file. This generated call can be used for on-chain verification,

  for calling public view method verifyProof of the generated

  verifier contract with this data.

  • Parameters:

    • publicSignals - [Optional] Specifies the file with

      signals to be used for generating verifying a proof.

      Defaults to circuit_public_signals.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/generated-proof folder.

    • proof - [Optional] Specifies the compiled proof that

      would be used for generating a proof based on it.

      Defaults to: circuit_proof.json read from

      zero-knowledge-proof/generated-proof folder.
