split-input

The aim of the split-input command is to take a traditional circom input.json file and secret-share it to a number of participants.

Example

co-circom split-input --circuit test_vectors/poseidon/circuit.circom --input test_vectors/poseidon/input.json --protocol REP3 --curve BN254 --out-dir test_vectors/poseidon --config test_vectors/poseidon/config.toml

The above command takes the input test_vectors/poseidon/input.json for the circom circuit defined in test_vectors/poseidon/circuit.circom and secret shares them using the REP3 MPC protocol. This produces 3 shares input.json.0.shared, input.json.1.shared, input.json.2.shared in the output directory.

These shares can be handed to the 3 different MPC parties for the witness generation phase.
