Winterfell Code Generator

This crate contains a code generator targeting the Winterfell prover Rust library.

The purpose of this code generator is to convert a provided AirIR representation of an AIR into a custom Rust struct that implements Winterfell's Air trait. The generated code can be used instead of writing a custom Winterfell Air implementation directly in Rust.

Generating the Winterfell Rust Code

Generate Rust code from an AirIR (AirScript's intermediate representation) by instantiating a new CodeGenerator with an AirScript AST (the output of the AirScript parser) and then calling generate. The generate method will return the Rust code implementation as a String.

Instantiating the CodeGenerator will add the required Winterfell imports, create a custom struct using the name defined for the AIR, then implement the Winterfell Air trait for the custom struct.

Example usage:

```Rust // parse the source string to a Result containing the AST or an Error let ast = parse(source.as_str()).expect("Parsing failed");

// process the AST to get a Result containing the AirIR or an Error let ir = AirIR::new(&ast).expect("AIR is invalid");

// generate Rust code targeting the Winterfell prover let rust_code = CodeGenerator::new(&ir); ```

Generated Winterfell Rust Code

The following code is generated for the Winterfell Air trait implementation:

• declaration and implementation of a PublicInputs struct.
• custom struct declaration and implementation, using the defined name of the AIR from the original AirScript file
• implementation of Winterfell Air trait:
  • constraint-related declarations as part of the AirContext creation in the new method:
  • the number of boundary constraints for the main trace
  • the number of boundary constraints for the auxiliary trace
  • the order and degrees of the transition constraints for the main trace
  • the order and degrees of the transition constraints for the auxiliary trace
  • getters for:
  • periodic column values (get_periodic_column_values)
  • main trace boundary constraints (get_assertions)
  • auxiliary trace boundary constraints (get_aux_assertions)
  • transition constraint evaluation code for:
  • main trace transition constraints (evaluate_transition)
  • auxiliary trace transition constraints (evaluate_aux_transition)
