Witnesscalc Adapter

This project provides a Rust adapter for compiling and linking Circom circuit witness generator C++ sources into a native library for target platforms (e.g., mobile devices). It includes macros and functions to facilitate the integration of witness generation into Rust codebases.

Usage

Include the crate in your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
witnesscalc-adapter = "0.1.0"

[build-dependencies]
witnesscalc-adapter = "0.1.0"

In build.rs, add the following code to compile the witness generator C++ sources (<circuit name>.cpp and <circuit name>.dat) into a native library and link to it:

witnesscalc_adapter::build_and_link("../path to directory containing your C++ sources");
// e.g. witnesscalc_adapter::build_and_link("../testdata");
// The directory should contain the following files:
// - <circuit name>.cpp
// - <circuit name>.dat

In your main code, use the witness macro to generate a witness for a given input:

witnesscalc_adapter::witness!(<circuit name>);
// e.g. witnesscalc_adapter::witness!(multiplier2);

Calculate the witness by using the <circuit name>_witness function.

let wtns = <circuit name>_witness(inputs_json_string)
// e.g. let wtns = multiplier2_witness("{\"a\": [\"2\"], \"b\": [\"3\"]}")

It will generate a wtns bytes array like the output of witnesscalc or snarkjs.

Convert the wtns to bigints by using the parse_witness_to_bigints function.

let witness = parse_witness_to_bigints(&wtns).unwrap();
