Crates.io Authors License

This directory contains the code for the AST of a Leo Program.

Node Types

There are several types of nodes in the AST that then have further breakdowns.

All nodes store a Span, which is useful for tracking the lines and columns of where the node was taken from in the Leo Program.

Program/File

The top level nodes in a Leo Program.

Imports

Represents an import statement in a Leo Program. A list of these are stored on the Program. It stores the path to an import and what is being imported.

NOTE: The import does not contain the source code of the imported Leo Program.

Circuits

A circuit node represents a defined Circuit in a Leo Program. An order-preserving map of these are stored on the Program. Contains the Circuit's name, as well as its members. The members are a function, or a variable, or a constant. For all of them the Circuit preserves their names.

Decorators

An annotation node is a decorator that can be applied to a function. Stored on the function themselves despite being a top-level node. The node stores the name of the annotation, as well as any args passed to it.

Functions

A function node represents a defined function in a Leo Program. An order-preserving map of these are stored on the Program. A function node stores the following information:

  • The annotations applied to the function.
  • An identifier the name of the function.
  • The inputs to the function, both their names and types.
  • The output of the function as a type if it exists.
  • The function body stored as a block statement.

Global Consts

A global const is a bit special and has no special node for itself, but rather is a definition statement. An order-preserving map of these are stored on the Program.

Types

The different types in a Leo Program. Types themselves are not a node, but rather just information to be stored on a node.

Address

The address type follows the BIP_0173 format starting with aleo1.

Boolean

The boolean type consists of two values true and false.

Char

The char type resents a character from the inclusive range [0, 10FFFF].

Field

The field type an unsigned number less than the modulus of the field.

Group

The group type a set of affine points on the elliptic curve passed.

IntegerType

The integer type represents a range of integer types.

U8

A integer in the inclusive range [0, 255].

U16

A integer in the inclusive range [0, 65535].

U32

A integer in the inclusive range [0, 4294967295].

U64

A integer in the inclusive range [0, 18446744073709551615].

U128

A integer in the inclusive range [0, 340282366920938463463374607431768211455].

I8

A integer in the inclusive range [-128, 127].

I16

A integer in the inclusive range [-32768, 32767].

I32

A integer in the inclusive range [-2147483648, 2147483647].

I64

A integer in the inclusive range [-9223372036854775808, 9223372036854775807].

I128

A integer in the inclusive range [-170141183460469231731687303715884105728, 170141183460469231731687303715884105727].

Array

The array type contains another type, then the number of elements of that type greater than 0 for monodimensional arrays, or a list of such numbers of elements for multidimensional arrays.

Tuple

The tuple type contains n types, where n is greater than or equal to 0.

Identifier

An identifier type is either a circuit type or a type alias; every circuit type represents a different type.

SelfType

The self type represented by Self and only usable inside a circuit.
