zk-dex-mint-python

name	zk-dex-mint-python
description	Generate zk-DEx mint note. Run `python generate_mint.py --owner-pk-x <hex> --owner-pk-y <hex> --value <amount>` to create a 7-input Poseidon note hash for minting.

zk-dex-mint-python

Python-based mint note generation for zk-DEx. Creates a 7-input Poseidon note hash compatible with the circom mint circuit. Uses the shared zkdex_lib library (pure Python, no npm/web3 dependency).

Dependencies

• zkdex_lib/ (shared library: Poseidon hash, Note class)
• Python 3.x
• Node.js + snarkjs (ZK proof 생성 시에만 필요)

Usage

# 노트만 생성
python generate_mint.py \
  --owner-pk-x <hex> \
  --owner-pk-y <hex> \
  --value <amount> \
  --token-type <hex>     # optional, default: 0x0 (ETH)
  --salt <hex>           # optional, auto-generated if omitted

# 노트 + ZK proof 생성
python generate_mint.py \
  --owner-pk-x <hex> \
  --owner-pk-y <hex> \
  --value <amount> \
  --proof \
  --sk <secret_key>      # required with --proof

Output Format

{
  "noteHash": "0x05fa764f...",
  "noteRaw": {
    "owner0": "0x...",
    "owner1": "0x...",
    "value": "0x...",
    "token": "0x...",
    "vk0": "0x...",
    "vk1": "0x...",
    "salt": "0x..."
  },
  "proof": {
    "a": ["<uint256>", "<uint256>"],
    "b": [["<uint256>", "<uint256>"], ["<uint256>", "<uint256>"]],
    "c": ["<uint256>", "<uint256>"],
    "input": ["<noteHash>", "<value>", "<tokenType>"]
  }
}

• noteHash: Poseidon(owner0, owner1, value, token, vk0, vk1, salt) — 64 hex chars
• noteRaw: All 7 note fields as 0x-prefixed 64-char hex strings
• Regular note: owner0=pk.x, owner1=pk.y, vk0=pk.x, vk1=pk.y
• proof (optional): Groth16 proof formatted for Solidity verifier. Only present with --proof flag.
  • a, b, c: proof elements
  • input: public signals [noteHash, value, tokenType]

Structure

• generate_mint.py: CLI script for mint note generation
• zkdex_lib/proof.py: ZK proof generation (Python subprocess wrapper)
• zkdex_lib/generate_proof.js: Node.js CLI for snarkjs
