zkey-manager

This utility simplifies the process of zkey file management for circuits written in circom.

Warning: for production setups, you should specify checksums to verify the integrity of the .ptau files that this utility downloads (see downloadPtau) or run linux checksum commands manually.

If your circuits are larger than 2 ** 28 constraints, please run native snarkjs commands instead. zkey-manager only supports generating zk proofs at most 2 ** 28 constraints (through using *.ptau files copied from the Hermez Network Phase 1 ceremony).

Requirements

You need the following, preferably on a Linux machine:

  • NodeJS (preferably v11 or above)
  • gcc, g++, libgmp-dev, nlohmann-json3-dev, and libsodium-dev:
sudo apt install build-essential libgmp-dev libsodium-dev nlohmann-json3-dev nasm

Installation

npm i zkey-manager

Configure circuits

See the config.example.yml file for an example.

Compile circuits: compile

$ node zkey-manager compile -nc -c <CONFIG_FILE>

Set the -nc flag to avoid recompiling existing circuits.

Download the Powers of Tau file: downloadPtau

This scans the out directory as configured in the config file for .r1cs files, and downloads the .ptau file that is large enough to support .zkey generation for each of the .r1cs files.

$ node zkey-manager downloadPtau -nc -c <CONFIG_FILE>

Generate the final .zkey files: genZkeys

$ node zkey-manager genZkeys -nc -c <CONFIG_FILE> -ps <PROOF_SYSTEM>

Generate and verify zk proof files: genProofs

$ node zkey-manager genProofs -c <CONFIG_FILE> -ps <PROOF_SYSTEM>

Clean working cache

$ node zkey-manager clean -c <CONFIG_FILE>
