#![no_std] #![forbid(unsafe_code)] //! Type checking for the lambda-Pi calculus modulo rewriting. //! //! This is the library underlying the [Kontroli] proof checker. //! //! # Usage //! //! Users communicate with Kontroli using *commands*. //! A command either //! introduces of a new name (by declaration, definition, or theorem), or //! adds a rewrite rule. //! The state of a Kontroli typechecking session consists of //! a [Symbols] table, keeping track of all previously introduced names, and //! a [Signature], recording types and rewrite rules attached to symbols. //! //! How is a user command processed? //! A command is parsed from a string to yield a [parse command]. //! The scoping operation then refines the parse command to a [scope command], //! verifying whether the names referenced in the parse command //! have been previously declared in the [Symbols] table. //! Once we have a scope command, we distinguish whether it //! introduces a name or adds a rewrite rule: //! In case of a rewrite rule, we add the rewrite rule to the signature. //! In case of a name introduction, we first //! update the [Symbols] table with the newly introduced name and //! verify that the given types and terms are valid, yielding a [Typing]. //! Once we have a typing, we add it to the signature. //! //! This whole process is illustrated in the following image. //! The [Symbols] and [Signature] are boxed to indicate that //! they persist throughout the checking. //! //! ~~~ //! # std::fs::create_dir_all("target/doc/kontroli")?; //! # std::fs::copy("misc/structure.svg", "target/doc/kontroli/structure.svg")?; //! # Ok::<_, std::io::Error>(()) //! ~~~ //! ![Command processing.](structure.svg) //! //! The following example parses a few commands and executes them on a signature. //! (By the way, this example, just as all other code examples in this library, //! can be executed by running `cargo test`.) //! //! ~~~ //! # use kontroli::Error; //! # use kontroli::scope::{Command, Symbols}; //! # use kontroli::rc::{Intro, Rule, Signature, Typing}; //! # use colosseum::unsync::Arena; //! let cmds = [ //! // declarations //! "prop : Type.\n", //! "imp : prop -> prop -> prop.\n", //! //! // definition with a rewrite rule //! "def proof : prop -> Type.\n", //! "[x, y] proof (imp x y) --> proof x -> proof y.\n", //! //! // theorem //! r"thm imp_refl (x : prop) : proof (imp x x) := p : proof x => p.\n", //! ]; //! //! let arena = Arena::new(); //! let mut syms = Symbols::new(); //! let mut sig = Signature::new(); //! //! for c in cmds.iter() { //! // parse and scope command in one go //! let cmd: Command<String> = Command::parse(c, &syms)?; //! match cmd { //! // introduction of a new name //! Command::Intro(id, it) => { //! let id: &str = arena.alloc(id); //! // add symbol to symbol table and fail if it is not new //! let sym = syms.insert(id)?; //! //! // typecheck and insert into signature //! let typing: Typing = Typing::new(Intro::from(it), &sig)?.check(&sig)?; //! sig.insert(sym, typing)? //! } //! // addition of rewrite rules //! Command::Rules(rules) => sig.add_rules(rules.into_iter().map(Rule::from))? //! } //! } //! # Ok::<_, Error>(()) //! ~~~ //! //! # Organisation //! //! This library is divided into several modules: //! * The [parse] module contains unshared, reference-free data structures, //! * the [scope] module contains data structures with references, and //! * the [rc] and [arc] modules contain data structures with references and shared pointers. //! //! The [rc] and [arc] modules expose completely the same API, //! the difference being that the structures in [rc] //! cannot be used in multi-threaded scenarios. //! Due to the performance overhead incurred by the data structures in [arc], //! it is advisable to use these only in multi-threaded scenarios, //! and to prefer [rc] whenever possible. //! //! For many data structures, we have counterparts in //! the [parse], [scope], and [rc]/[arc] modules. //! We call types from the [parse] and [scope] modules //! "parse structures" and "scope structures", respectively. //! For example, we distinguish parse terms, scope terms, and terms //! (the latter being defined in the [rc]/[arc] modules). //! Parse structures are constructed by the parser and //! refined into their corresponding scope structures by the scoper. //! Parse and scope structures also implement the `Send` and `Sync` traits, //! meaning that they can be transferred and shared between threads. //! This allows parsing and checking to be performed in parallel. //! //! [Kontroli]: https://github.com/01mf02/kontroli-rs //! //! [parse command]: parse/enum.Command.html //!
