Gevulot

Gevulot is a permissionless and programmable layer one blockchain for deploying zero-knowledge provers and verifiers as on-chain programs. It allows users to deploy and use entire proof systems on-chain, with minimal computational overhead as compared to single prover architectures. The vision of Gevulot is to make the creation and operation of zk-based systems, such as validity rollups, as easy as deploying smart contracts.

For a more in-depth look at the network design see our docs.

UPDATE

The original Gevulot Devnet has been phased out in favor of Gevulot Firestarter.

The Firestarter and the upcoming ZkCloud are built on completely new architecture and hence this node implementation is not maintained anymore.

Gevulot Node

Gevulot node is written in Rust and packaged into a container. It uses QEMU-KVM as its hypervisor to run unikernel programs.

Building container

To build Gevulot node container image:

podman build -t gevulot-node .

Running the node

In order to run the node, refer installation guide.

Development

For development you need following dependencies (package names for Fedora):

  • openssl-devel
  • protobuf
  • protobuf-c
  • protobuf-compiler
  • protobuf-devel

Database

Local postgres container under systemd

Local development postgres can be run e.g. as a user's quadlet systemd unit:

~/.config/containers/systemd/gevulot-postgres.container

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

[Container]
ContainerName=gevulot-postgres

Image=docker.io/library/postgres:16-alpine

Environment=POSTGRES_USER=gevulot
Environment=POSTGRES_PASSWORD=gevulot
Environment=POSTGRES_DB=gevulot

Network=host
ExposeHostPort=5432
Initialization

sqlx-cli can be run from crates/node directory as follows:

  • Create database:
    • cargo sqlx database create --database-url postgres://gevulot:gevulot@localhost/gevulot
  • Run DB migrations:
    • cargo sqlx migrate run --database-url postgres://gevulot:gevulot@localhost/gevulot
Refresh SQLX cache
  • cargo sqlx prepare --database-url postgres://gevulot:gevulot@localhost/gevulot
