## Description For more easily finding the details of the resolc binary releases for the various supported platforms, the plain JSON information will be displayed on [resolc-bin](https://github.com/paritytech/resolc-bin)'s [GitHub Pages website](https://paritytech.github.io/resolc-bin/). Changes: * Whenever there is a regular or nightly release: * The corresponding workflow files will run a script to update resolc-bin's `index.md` file (new file) with the updated JSON. * `index.md` will be the file GitHub Pages serves as HTML (by default it is built with Jekyll and the Markdown is processed by kramdown, hence the syntax seen in the script). * Documentation updates Thus, this will run on the next nightly release after this PR is merged. ## Resolved Issues Closes #443 --------- Co-authored-by: xermicus <cyrill@parity.io>
revive
Yul recompiler to LLVM, targetting RISC-V on PolkaVM.
Check the docs or visit contracts.polkadot.io to learn more about revive and contracts on Polkadot!
Status
This is experimental software in active development and not ready just yet for production usage. Please do report any compiler related issues or missing features that are not yet known to us here.
Discussion around the development is hosted on the Polkadot Forum.
Installation
Building Solidity contracts for PolkaVM requires installing the following two compilers:
resolc: The revive Solidity compiler Yul frontend and PolkaVM code generator (provided by this repository).solc: The Ethereum Solidity reference compiler implemenation.resolcusessolcduring the compilation process, please refer to the Ethereum Solidity documentation for installation instructions.
resolc binary releases
resolc is distributed as a standalone binary (with solc as the only external dependency). Please download one of our binary releases for your target platform and mind the platform specific instructions below. We also provide nightly builds.
MacOS users
MacOS users need to clear the
downloadedattribute from the binary and set the executable flag.xattr -rc resolc-universal-apple-darwin chmod +x resolc-universal-apple-darwin
Linux users
Linux users need to set the executable flag.
chmod +x resolc-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
resolc NPM package
We distribute the revive compiler as node.js module and hardhat plugin.
Note: The solc dependency is bundled via NPM packaging and defaults to the latest supported version.
Building from source
Building revive requires a stable Rust installation and a C++ toolchain for building LLVM on your system.
LLVM
revive depends on a custom build of LLVM v18.1.8 with the RISC-V embedded target, including the compiler-rt builtins. You can either download a build from our releases (recommended for older hardware) or build it from source.
Download from our LLVM releases
Download the latest LLVM build from our releases.
MacOS users need to clear the
downloadedattribute from all binaries after extracting the archive:xattr -rc </path/to/the/extracted/archive>/target-llvm/gnu/target-final/bin/*
After extracting the archive, point $LLVM_SYS_181_PREFIX to it:
export LLVM_SYS_181_PREFIX=</path/to/the/extracted/archive>/target-llvm/gnu/target-final
Building from source
The Makefile provides a shortcut target to obtain a compatible LLVM build, using the provided revive-llvm utility. Once installed, point $LLVM_SYS_181_PREFIX to the installation afterwards:
make install-llvm
export LLVM_SYS_181_PREFIX=${PWD}/target-llvm/gnu/target-final
The resolc Solidity frontend
To build the resolc Solidity frontend executable, make sure you have obtained a compatible LLVM build and did export the LLVM_SYS_181_PREFIX environment variable pointing to it (see above).
To install the resolc Solidity frontend executable:
make install-bin
resolc --version
Development
Please consult the Developer Guide to learn more about how contribute to the project.
Acknowledgements
The revive compiler project, after some early experiments with EVM bytecode translations, decided to fork the era-compiler framework.
Frontend, code generator and some supporting libraries are based of ZKSync zksolc. I'd like to express my gratitude and thank the original authors for providing a useable code base under a generous license.
