README
# hevm
`hevm` is an implementation of the Ethereum virtual machine (EVM) made for
symbolic execution, equivalence checking, and unit testing of smart contracts.
`hevm` can symbolically execute smart contracts, run unit tests, and run
arbitrary EVM code. It can run on state set up in a [Forge `std-test` testing
harness](https://book.getfoundry.sh/forge/forge-std), or fetched on demand from
live network using `rpc` calls.
`hevm` was originally developed as part of the
[dapptools](https://github.com/dapphub/dapptools/) project, and was forked to
this repo by the formal methods team at the Ethereum Foundation in August 2022.
## Documentation & Support
User facing documentation can be found in the [hevm book](https://hevm.dev/).
We have a public matrix chat room [here](https://matrix.to/#/%23hevm%3Amatrix.org).
## Installation
### Static Binaries
Static binaries for x86 linux and macos are available for each
[release](https://github.com/ethereum/hevm/releases). These binaries expect to be able to find the
following programs on `PATH`:
- `solc`
- `z3`
- (optionally) `cvc5`
- (optionally) `bitwuzla`
### nixpkgs
hevm is available in
[`nixpkgs`](https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&show=haskellPackages.hevm&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=hevm), and can be installed via:
- flakes: `nix profile install nixpkgs#haskellPackages.hevm`
- legacy: `nix-env -iA haskellPackages.hevm`
### nix flakes
hevm can be installed directly from the `main` branch of this repo via the following command:
```
nix profile install github:ethereum/hevm
```
## Development
We use `nix` to manage project dependencies. To start hacking on hevm you should first [install
nix](https://nixos.org/download.html).
Once nix is installed you can run `nix develop` from the repo root to enter a development shell
containing all required dev dependencies. If you use [direnv](https://direnv.net/), then you can run
`direnv allow`, and the shell will be automatically entered each time you cd in the project repo.
Once in the shell you can use the usual `cabal` commands to build and test hevm:
```
$ cabal build # build the hevm library
$ cabal build exe:hevm # build the cli binary
$ cabal build test # build the test binary
$ cabal build bench # build the benchmarks
$ cabal repl lib:hevm # enter a repl for the library
$ cabal repl exe:hevm # enter a repl for the cli
$ cabal repl test # enter a repl for the tests
$ cabal repl bench # enter a repl for the benchmarks
$ cabal run hevm # run the cli binary
$ cabal run test # run the test binary
$ cabal run bench # run the benchmarks
# run the cli binary with profiling enabled
$ cabal run --enable-profiling hevm -- +RTS -s -p -RTS
# run the test binary with profiling enabled
$ cabal run --enable-profiling test -- +RTS -s -p -RTS
# run the benchmarks with profiling enabled
$ cabal run --enable-profiling bench -- +RTS -s -p -RTS
```
A high level overview of the architecture can be found in [architecture.md](./architecture.md).
