Cairo

Cairo is a Turing-complete language that allows you write provable programs (where one party can prove to another that a certain computation was executed correctly) on StarkNet.

StarkNet

StarkNet is a decentralized ZK-rollup that operates as an Ethereum layer 2 chain.

In this document, we are going to be going in-depth into understanding Cairo's syntax and how you could create and deploy a Cairo smart contract on StarkNet.

NB: As at the time of this writing, StarkNet is still at v0.10.3, with Cairo 1.0 coming soon. The ecosystem is young and evolving very fast, so you might want to check the official docs to confirm this document is still up-to-date. Pull requests are welcome!

Setting Up A Development Environment

Before we get started writing codes, we will need to setup a Cairo development environment, for writing, compiling and deploying our contracts to StarkNet. For the purpose of this tutorial we are going to be using the Protostar Framework. Installation steps can be found in the docs here. Note that Protostar supports just Mac and Linux OS, Windows users might need to use WSL, or go for other alternatives such as the Official StarkNet CLI or Nile from Openzeppelin

Once you're done with the installations, run the command protostar -v to confirm your installation was successful. If successful, you should see your Protostar version displayed on the screen.

Initializing a new project

Protostar similar to Truffle for solidity development can be installed once and used for multiple projects. To initialize a new Protostar project, run the following command:

protostar init

It would then request the project's name and the library's directory name, you'd need to fill in this, and a new project will be initialized successfully.

Compiling, Declaring, Deploying and Interacting with StarkNet Contracts

Within the src folder you'll find a boilerplate contract that comes with initializing a new Protostar project, main.cairo. We are going to be compiling, declaring and deploying this contract.

Compiling Contracts

To compile a Cairo contract using Protostar, ensure a path to the contract is specified in the [contracts] section of the protostar.toml file. Once you've done that, open your terminal and run the command:

protostar build

And you should get an output similar to what you see below, with a main.json and main_abi.json files created in the build folder.

Declaring Contracts

With the recent StarkNet update to 0.10.3, the DEPLOY transaction was deprecated and no longer works. To deploy a transaction, you must first declare a Contract to obtain the class hash, then deploy the declared contract using the Universal Deployer Contract.

Before declaring or deploying your contract using Protostar, you should set the private key associated with the specified account address in a file, or in the terminal. To set your private key in the terminal, run the command:

export PROTOSTAR_ACCOUNT_PRIVATE_KEY=[YOUR PRIVATE KEY HERE]

Then to declare our contract using Protostar run the following command (for visual clarity, the backslash sign symbolizes the continuing line):

protostar declare ./build/main.json \
  --network testnet \
  --account 0x0691622bBFD29e835bA4004e7425A4e9630840EbD11c5269DE51C16774585b16 \
  --max-fee auto

where network specifies the network we are deploying to, account specifies account whose private key we are using, max-fee specifies the maximum fee to be paid for the transaction. You should get the class hash outputted as seen below:

Deploying Contracts

After obtaining our class hash from declaring, we can now deploy using the command below:

protostar \
  deploy 0x02a5de1b145e18dfeb31c7cd7ff403714ededf5f3fdf75f8b0ac96f2017541bc \
  --network testnet \
  --account 0x0691622bBFD29e835bA4004e7425A4e9630840EbD11c5269DE51C16774585b16 \
  --max-fee auto

where 0x02a5de1b145e18dfeb31c7cd7ff403714ededf5f3fdf75f8b0ac96f2017541bc is the class hash of our contract.

Interacting with Contracts

To interact with your deployed contract, we will be using Argent X (alternative: Braavos), and Starkscan (alternative: Voyager). To install and setup Argent X, see this guide.

Copy your contract address, displayed on screen from the previous step, and head over to Starkscan to search for the contract. Once found, you can make write calls to the contract in the following sequence:

click on the "connect wallet" button,
select Argent X and approve the connection
you can now make read and write calls easily.

Let's learn Cairo

First let's look at a default contract that comes with Protostar which allows you to set balance on deployment, increase, and get the balance.

// Language directive - instructs compiler its a StarkNet contract
%lang starknet

// Library imports from the Cairo-lang library
from starkware.cairo.common.math import assert_nn
from starkware.cairo.common.cairo_builtins import HashBuiltin

// @dev Storage variable that stores the balance of a user.
// @storage_var is a decorator that instructs the compiler the function
//   below it is a storage variable.
@storage_var
func balance() -> (res: felt) {}

// @dev Constructor writes the balance variable to 0 on deployment
// Constructors sets storage variables on deployment. Can accept arguments too.
@constructor
func constructor{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}() {
  balance.write(0); 
  return();
}

// @dev increase_balance updates the balance variable
// @param amount the amount you want to add to balance
// @external is a decorator that specifies the func below it is an external
//   function.
@external
func increase_balance{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}(amount: felt){
  with_attr error_message("Amount must be positive. Got: {amount}.") {
    assert_nn(amount);
  }

  let (res) = balance.read();
  balance.write(res + amount);
  return ();
}

// @dev returns the balance variable
// @view is a decorator that specifies the func below it is a view function.
@view
func get_balance{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}() -> (res: felt) {
  let (res) = balance.read();
  return (res,);
}

Before proceeding to the main lessons, try to build, deploy and interact with this contract. NB: You should be at main.cairo if you are using Protostar.

1. The Felt data type

Unlike solidity, where you have access to various data types, Cairo comes with just a single data type ..felts. Felts stands for Field elements, and are a 252 bit integer in the range 0<=x<=P where P is a prime number. You can create a Uint256 in Cairo by utlizing a struct of two 128 bits felts.

struct Uint256 {
  low: felt, // The low 128 bits of the value.
  high: felt, // The high 128 bits of the value.
}

To avoid running into issues with divisions, it's safer to work with the unsigned_div_rem method from Cairo-lang's library.

2. Lang Directive and Imports

To get started with writing a StarkNet contract, you must specify the directive:

%lang starknet

This directive informs the compiler you are writing a contract and not a program. The difference between both is contracts have access to StarkNet's storage, programs don't and as such are stateless.

There are important functions you might need to import from the official Cairo-lang library or Openzeppelin's, e.g.

from starkware.cairo.common.cairo_builtins import HashBuiltin
from cairo_contracts.src.openzeppelin.token.erc20.library import ERC20
from starkware.cairo.common.uint256 import Uint256
from starkware.cairo.common.bool import TRUE

3. Data Structures

Storage variables: Cairo's storage is a map with 2^251 slots, where each slot is a felt which is initialized to 0. You create one using the @storage_var decorator.
```
@storage_var
func names() -> (name: felt) {}
```
Storage mappings: Unlike Solidity where mappings have a separate keyword, in Cairo you create mappings using storage variables.
```
@storage_var
func names(address: felt) -> (name: felt) {}
```
Structs: are a means to create custom data types in Cairo. A struct has a size, which is the sum of the sizes of its members. The size can be retrieved using MyStruct.SIZE. You create a struct in Cairo using the struct keyword.
```
struct Person {
  name: felt,
  age: felt,
  address: felt,
}
```
Constants: Constants are fixed and as such can't be altered after being set. They evaluate to an integer (field element) at compile time. To create a constant in Cairo, you use the const keyword. It's proper practice to capitalize constant names.
```
const USER = 0x01C6cfC1DB2ae90dACEA243F0a8C2F4e32560F7cDD398e4dA2Cc56B733774E9b
```
Arrays: Arrays can be defined as a pointer(felt*) to the first element of the array. As an array is populated, its elements take up contigous memory cells. The alloc keyword can be used to dynamically allocate a new memory segment, which can be used to store an array:
```
let (myArray: felt*) = alloc ();
assert myArray[0] = 1;
assert myArray[1] = 2;
assert myArray[3] = 3;
```
You can also use the new operator to create fixed-size arrays using tuples. The new operator is useful as it enables you allocate memory and initialize the object in one instruction
```
func foo() {
  tempvar arr: felt* = new (1, 1, 2, 3, 5);
  assert arr[4] = 5;
  return ();
}
```
Tuples: A tuple is a finite, ordered, unchangeable list of elements. It is represented as a comma-separated list of elements enclosed by parentheses. Their elements may be of any combination of valid types.
```
local tuple0: (felt, felt, felt) = (7, 9, 13);
```
Events: Events allows a contract emit information during the course of its execution, that can be used outside of StarkNet. An event can be created, subsequently emitted:
```
@event
func name_stored(address, name) {}

name_stored.emit(address, name);
```

4. Constructors, External and View functions

Constructors: Constructors are a way to intialize state variables on contract deployment. You create a constructor using the @constructor decorator.

@constructor
func constructor{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}(_name: felt) {
  let (caller) = get_caller_address();
  names.write(caller, _name);
  return ();
}

External functions: External functions are functions that modifies the state of the network. You create an external function using the @external decorator:

@external
func store_name{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}(_name: felt){
  let (caller) = get_caller_address();
  names.write(caller, _name);
  stored_name.emit(caller, _name);
  return ();
}

View functions: View functions do not modify the state of the blockchain. You can create a view function using the @view decorator.
```
@view
func get_name{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}(_address: felt) -> (name: felt){
  let (name) = names.read(_address);
  return (name,);
}
```
NB: Unlike Solidity, Cairo supports just External and View function types. You can alternatively also create an internal function by not adding any decorator to the function.

5. Decorators

All functions in Cairo are specified by the func keyword, which can be confusing. Decorators are used by the compiler to distinguish between these functions.

Here are the most common decorators you'll encounter in Cairo:

@storage_var — used for specifying state variables.
@constructor — used for specifying constructors.
@external — used for specifying functions that write to a state variable.
@event — used for specifying events
@view — used to specify functions reading from a state variable
@contract_interface — used for specifying function interfaces.
@l1_handler — used for specifying functions that processes message sent from an L1 contract in a messaging bridge.

6. BUILTINS, HINTS & IMPLICIT Arguments

BUILTINS are predefined optimized low-level execution units, which are added to Cairo’s CPU board. They help perform predefined computations like pedersen hashing, bitwise operations etc, which are expensive to perform in Vanilla Cairo. Each builtin in Cairo is assigned a separate memory location, accessible through regular Cairo memory calls using implicit parameters. You specify them using the %builtins directive

Here is a list of available builtins in Cairo:
- output — the output builtin is used for writing program outputs
- pedersen — the pedersen builtin is used for pedersen hashing computations
- range_check — This builtin is mostly used for integer comparisons, and facilitates check to confirm that a field element is within a range [0, 2^128)
- ecdsa — the ecdsa builtin is used for verifying ECDSA signatures
- bitwise — the bitwise builtin is used for carrying out bitwise operations on felts
HINTS are pieces of Python codes, which contains instructions that only the prover sees and executes. From the point of view of the verifier these hints do not exist. To specify a hint in Cairo, you need to encapsulate it within %{ and %}. It is good practice to avoid using hints as much as you can in your contracts, as hints are not added to the bytecode, and thus do not count in the total number of execution steps.
```
%{
  # Python hint goes here
%}
```

IMPLICIT ARGUMENTS are not restricted to the function body, but can be inherited by other functions calls that require them. Implicit arguments are passed in between curly bracelets, like you can see below:

func store_name{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}(_name: felt){
  let (caller) = get_caller_address();
  names.write(caller, _name);
  stored_name.emit(caller, _name);
  return ();
}

7. Error Messages and Access Controls

You can create custom errors in Cairo which is outputted to the user upon failed execution. This can be very useful for implementing checks and proper access control mechanisms. An example is preventing a user to call a function except user is admin.

// imports
from starkware.starknet.common.syscalls import get_caller_address

// create an admin constant
const ADMIN = 0x01C6cfC1DB2ae90dACEA243F0a8C2F4e32560F7cDD398e4dA2Cc56B733774E9b

// implement access control
with_attr error_message("You do not have access to make this action!"){
  let (caller) = get_caller_address();
  assert ADMIN = caller;
}

// using an assert statement throws if condition is not true, thus
// returning the specified error.

8. Contract Interfaces

Contract interfaces provide a means for one contract to invoke or call the external function of another contract. To create a contract interface, you use the @contract_interface keyword:

@contract_interface
  namespace IENS {
    func store_name(_name: felt) {
    }

    func get_name(_address: felt) -> (name: felt) {
    }
  }

Once a contract interface is specified, any contract can make calls to that contract passing in the contract address as the first parameter like this:

IENS.store_name(contract_address, _name);

Note that Interfaces exclude the function body/logic and the implicit arguments.

9. Recursions

Due to the unavailability of loops, Recursion is the go-to for similar operations. In simple terms, a recursive function is one which calls itself repeatedly.

A good example to demonstrate this is writing a function for getting the nth fibonacci number:

@external
func fibonacci{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}(n : felt) -> (result : felt){
  alloc_locals;
  if (n == 0){
    return (0);
  }
  if (n == 1){
    return (1);
  }
  let (local x) = fibonacci(n - 1);
  let (local y) = fibonacci(n - 2);
  return (result=(x + y));
}

The nth fibonacci term is the sum of the nth - 1 and the nth - 2 numbers, that's why we get these two as (x,y) using recursion.

NB: when implementing recursive functions, always remember to implement a base case (n==0, n==1 in our case), to prevent stack overflows.

10. Registers

Registers holds values that may change over time. There are 3 major types of registers:

ap (allocation pointer) points to a yet unused memory. Temporary variables created using let, tempvar are held here, and thus susceptible to being revoked.
fp (frame pointer) points to the frame of the current function. The address of all the function arguments and local variables are relative to this register and as such can never be revoked.
pc (program counter) points to the current instruction.

11. Revoked References

Revoked references occur when there is a call instruction to another function, between the definition of a reference variable that depends on ap (temp variables) and its usage. This occurs as the compiler may not be able to compute the change of ap (as one may jump to the label from another place in the program, or call a function that might change ap in an unknown way).

Here is an example to demonstrate what I mean:

@external
func get_balance{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}() -> (res: felt) {
  return (res=100);
}

@external
func double_balance{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}() -> (res: felt) {
  let multiplier = 2;
  let (balance) = get_balance();
  let new_balance = balance * multiplier;
  return (res=new_balance);
}

If you run that code, you'll run into the revoked reference error as we are trying to access the multiplier variable after calling the get_balance function.

In simple cases you can resolve revoked references by adding the keyword alloc_locals within function scopes. In more complex cases you might need to create a local variable to resolve it.

// resolving the `double_balance` function:
@external
func double_balance{syscall_ptr: felt*, pedersen_ptr: HashBuiltin*,
range_check_ptr}() -> (res: felt) {
  alloc_locals;
  let multiplier = 2;
  let (balance) = get_balance();
  let new_balance = balance * multiplier;
  return (res=new_balance);
}

12. Understanding Cairo's Punctuations

; (semicolon). Used at the end of each instruction
() (parentheses). Used in a function declaration, if statements, and in a tuple declaration
{} (curly braces). Used in a declaration of implicit arguments and to define code blocks.
[] (square brackets). Standalone brackets represent the value at a particular address location (such as the allocation pointer, [ap]). Brackets following a pointer or a tuple act as a subscript operator, where x[2] represents the element with index 2 in x.
* (single asterisk). Refers to the pointer of an expression.
% (percent sign). Appears at the start of a directive, such as %builtins or %lang.
%{ and %} represent Python hints.
_ (underscore). A placeholder to handle values that are not used, such as an unused function return value.
