Python wrapper for the Zenroom virtual machine

Project description


Zenroom

zenroom.py 🐍
A Python3 wrapper of Zenroom, a secure and small virtual machine for crypto language processing

Build status Code coverage PyPI


Zenroom and Zenroom.py are part of the DECODE project about data-ownership and technological sovereignty. Our effort is that of improving people's awareness of how their data is processed by algorithms, as well facilitate the work of developers to create along privacy by design principles using algorithms that can be deployed in any situation without any change.

This library attempts to provide a very simple wrapper around the Zenroom (https://zenroom.dyne.org/) crypto virtual machine developed as part of the DECODE project (https://decodeproject.eu/), that aims to make the Zenroom virtual machine easier to call from normal Python code.

Zenroom itself does have good cross platform functionality, so if you are interested in finding out more about the functionalities offered by Zenroom, then please visit the website linked to above to find out more.


💾 Installation

pip install zenroom

NOTE - the above command attempts to install the zenroom package, pulling in the Zenroom VM as a precompiled binary, so will only work on Linux (amd64) and macOS machines.


🎮 Usage

Two main calls are exposed, one to run zencode and one for zenroom scripts.

If you don't know what zencode is, you can start with this blogpost https://decodeproject.eu/blog/smart-contracts-english-speaker The official documentation is available on https://dev.zenroom.org/zencode/

A good set of examples of zencode contracts could be found on

🐍 Python wrapper

the wrapper exposes two simple calls:

  • zenroom_exec
  • zencode_exec

as the names suggest are the two methods to execute zenroom (lua scripts) and zencode.

args

Both functions accept the same arguments:

  • script string the lua script or the zencode script to be executed
  • keys string the optional keys string to pass in execution as documented in zenroom docs here
  • data string the optional data string to pass in execution as documented in zenroom docs here
  • conf string the optional conf string to pass according to zen_config here

return

Both functions return the same object result ZenResult that have two attributes:

  • stdout string holds the stdout of the script execution
  • stderr string holds the stderr of the script execution
Examples

Example usage of zencode_exec(script, keys=None, data=None, conf=None)

from zenroom import zenroom

contract = """Scenario 'simple': Create a keypair"
Given that I am known as 'identifier'
When I create the keypair
Then print my data
"""

result = zenroom.zencode_exec(contract)
print(result.stdout)

Example usage of zenroom_exec(script, keys=None, data=None, conf=None)

from zenroom import zenroom

script = "print('Hello world')"
result = zenroom.zenroom_exec(script)

print(result.stdout)

The same arguments and the same result are applied as the zencode_exec call.


📋 Testing

Tests are made with pytests, just run

python setup.py test

in (zenroom_test.py)[https://github.com/DECODEproject/Zenroom/blob/master/bindings/python3/zenroom/zenroom_test.py] file you'll find more usage examples of the wrapper
