# Pantograph
An interaction system for Lean 4.
## Installation
Install `elan` and `lean4`. Then, execute
``` sh
lake build
```
In order to use `mathlib`, its binary must also be built
``` sh
lake build Qq
lake build aesop
lake build std
lake build mathlib
```
## Usage
The binary must be run inside a `lake env` environment. i.e. `lake env
build/bin/pantograph`. The REPL loop accepts commands as single-line JSON inputs
and outputs either an `Error:` (indicating malformed command) or a json return
value indicating the result of a command execution. The command can be passed in
one of two formats
```
command { ... }
{ "cmd": command, "payload": ... }
```
The list of available commands can be found in `Pantograph/Commands.lean`. An
empty command aborts the REPL.
The `Pantograph` executable must be run with a list of modules to import.
Example: (~5k symbols)
```
$ lake env build/bin/Pantograph "Init"
catalog
inspect {"name": "Nat.le_add_left"}
```
Example with `mathlib` (~90k symbols)
```
$ lake env build/bin/Pantograph "Mathlib.Analysis.Seminorm"
catalog
```
Example proving a theorem: (alternatively use `proof.start {"copyFrom": "Nat.add_comm"}`) to prime the proof
```
$ lake env build/bin/Pantograph "Init"
proof.start {"expr": "∀ (n m : Nat), n + m = m + n"}
proof.tactic {"treeId": 0, "stateId": 0, "goalId": 0, "tactic": "intro n m"}
proof.tactic {"treeId": 0, "stateId": 1, "goalId": 0, "tactic": "assumption"}
proof.printTree {"treeId": 0}
proof.tactic {"treeId": 0, "stateId": 1, "goalId": 0, "tactic": "rw [Nat.add_comm]"}
proof.printTree {"treeId": 0}
```
where the application of `assumption` should lead to a failure.
## Troubleshooting
If lean encounters stack overflow problems when printing catalog, execute this before running lean:
```sh
ulimit -s unlimited
```
## Testing
The tests are based on `LSpec`. To run tests,
``` sh
test/all.sh
```
