o1js Pack

Make the most of your zkApp state!

What is it

o1js Pack is a library for o1js that allows a zkApp developer to pack extra data into a single Field.

Usage in a zkApp

Smart Contract

The primary benefit of using this library in a smart contract is that it allows you to use more of your allotted 8 Fields of storage.

Check out example usage in a smart contract in Smart Contract Examples.

ZK Program

The benefit to using this library in a zk program is less obvious. In some cases, the number of gates required in a circuit is less using this library than with provable arrays. Especially in applications where the array is hashed many times, packing and unpacking ends up being more effecient than doing a lot of Poseidon hashes. In other cases, you may just prefer the API of o1js Pack compared to using provable arrays.

Check out example usage in a zk program in Zk Program Examples.

How to build

npm run build

How to run tests

npm run test src # non-proof tests
npm run test tests/provable # provable tests
