FastSSZ

Clone:

$ git clone [email protected]:prysmaticlabs/fastssz.git

Download the eth2.0 spec tests

$ make get-spec-tests

Regenerate the test spec encodings:

$ make build-spec-tests

Generate encodings for a specific package:

$ go run sszgen/*.go --path ./ethereumapis/eth/v1alpha1 [--objs BeaconBlock,Eth1Data]

Optionally, you can specify the objs you want to generate. Otherwise, it will generate encodings for all structs in the package. Note that if a struct does not have 'ssz' tags when required (i.e size of arrays), the generator will fail.

By default, it generates a file with the prefix '_encoding.go' for each file that contains a generated struct. Optionally, you can combine all the outputs in a single file with the 'output' flag.

$ go run sszgen/*.go --path ./ethereumapis/eth/v1alpha1 --output ./ethereumapis/eth/v1alpha1/encoding.go

Test the spectests:

$ go test -v ./spectests/... -run TestSpec

Run the fuzzer:

$ FUZZ_TESTS=True go test -v ./spectests/... -run TestFuzz

To install the generator run:

$ go get github.com/prysmaticlabs/fastssz/sszgen

Benchmark (BeaconBlock):

$ go test -v ./spectests/... -run=XXX -bench=.

Package reference

To reference a struct from another package use the '--include' flag to point to that package.

Example:

$ go run sszgen/*.go --path ./example2
$ go run sszgen/*.go --path ./example 
[ERR]: could not find struct with name 'Checkpoint'
$ go run sszgen/*.go --path ./example --include ./example2

There are some caveats required to use this functionality.

  • If multiple input paths import the same package, all of them need to import it with the same alias if any.
  • If the folder of the package is not the same as the name of the package, any input file that imports this package needs to do it with an alias.
