}

A layout strategy within a circuit. The layouter is chip-agnostic and applies its strategy to the context and config it is given.

This abstracts over the circuit assignments, handling row indices etc.

Required Associated Types

type Root: Layouter<F>

Represents the type of the “root” of this layouter, so that nested namespaces can minimize indirection.

Required Methods

fn assign_region<A, AR, N, NR>( &mut self, name: N, assignment: A, ) -> Result<AR, Error>

where A: FnMut(Region<'_, F>) -> Result<AR, Error>, N: Fn() -> NR, NR: Into<String>,

Assign a region of gates to an absolute row number.

Inside the closure, the chip may freely use relative offsets; the Layouter will treat these assignments as a single “region” within the circuit. Outside this closure, the Layouter is allowed to optimise as it sees fit.

fn assign_region(&mut self, || "region name", |region| {
    let config = chip.config();
    region.assign_advice(config.a, offset, || { Some(value)});
});

fn assign_table<A, N, NR>( &mut self, name: N, assignment: A, ) -> Result<(), Error>

where A: FnMut(Table<'_, F>) -> Result<(), Error>, N: Fn() -> NR, NR: Into<String>,

Assign a table region to an absolute row number.

fn assign_table(&mut self, || "table name", |table| {
    let config = chip.config();
    table.assign_fixed(config.a, offset, || { Some(value)});
});

fn constrain_instance( &mut self, cell: Cell, column: Column<Instance>, row: usize, ) -> Result<(), Error>

Constrains a [Cell] to equal an instance column’s row value at an absolute position.

fn get_root(&mut self) -> &mut Self::Root

Gets the “root” of this assignment, bypassing the namespacing.

Not intended for downstream consumption; use Layouter::namespace instead.

fn push_namespace<NR, N>(&mut self, name_fn: N)

where NR: Into<String>, N: FnOnce() -> NR,

Creates a new (sub)namespace and enters into it.

Not intended for downstream consumption; use Layouter::namespace instead.

fn pop_namespace(&mut self, gadget_name: Option<String>)

Exits out of the existing namespace.

Not intended for downstream consumption; use Layouter::namespace instead.

Provided Methods

fn namespace<NR, N>( &mut self, name_fn: N, ) -> NamespacedLayouter<'_, F, Self::Root>

where NR: Into<String>, N: FnOnce() -> NR,

Enters into a namespace.

Object Safety

This trait is not object safe.
