A privacy gadget for Ethereum
| Semaphore is a generic privacy layer. Leveraging zero-knowledge technology, users can prove their membership in groups and send messages (extending from votes to endorsements) off-chain or across EVM-compatible blockchains, all without revealing their personal identity. |

The core of the Semaphore protocol is in the circuit logic. However, Semaphore also provides Solidity contracts and JavaScript libraries to make the steps for offchain proof creation and onchain/offchain verification easier. To learn more about Semaphore visit semaphore.pse.dev.
[!IMPORTANT]
Help Semaphore prosper by sharing your ideas with the PSE acceleration program.
Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/semaphore-protocol/semaphore.git
Install the dependencies:
cd semaphore && yarn
And build the repository:
yarn build
Copy the .env.example file as .env:
cp .env.example .env
And add your environment variables.
Run ESLint to analyze the code and catch bugs:
yarn lint
Run Prettier to check formatting rules:
yarn format
Or to automatically format the code:
yarn format:write
Semaphore uses conventional commits. A command line utility to commit using the correct syntax can be used by running:
git commit
It will also automatically check that the modified files comply with ESLint and Prettier rules.
Run Jest to test the JS libraries:
yarn test:libraries
Run Mocha to test the contracts:
yarn test:contracts
Or test everything with:
yarn test
Run Rollup and @graphprotocol/graph-cli">TheGraph to build all the packages and the subgraph:
yarn build
Compile the smart contracts with Hardhat:
yarn compile:contracts
Run TypeDoc to generate a documentation website for each package:
yarn docs
The output will be placed on the docs folder.
Bump a new version with:
yarn version:bump <version># e.g. yarn version:bump 2.0.0
It will create a commit and a git tag that will need to be pushed on the main branch. A workflow will be triggered and will
publish the Semaphore packages on npm and release a new version on Github with its changelogs automatically.
