GateValidator

class braket.emulation.passes.circuit_passes.gate_validator.GateValidator(supported_gates=None, native_gates=None)[source]

Bases: ValidationPass

A GateValidator instance validates that a circuit uses the supported gates of the device, or

native gates within a verbatim box if any.

Parameters:

  • supported_gates (Iterable[str] | None) – A list of gates supported outside of verbatim modeby the emulator. A gate is a Braket gate name.

  • native_gates (Iterable[str] | None) – A list of gates supported inside of verbatim mode by the emulator.

Raises:

  • ValueError – If supported_gates and native_gates are empty or any of the provided

  • gate are not supported by the Braket BDK. –

validate(circuit)[source]

Checks that all non-verbatim gates used in the circuit are in this validator’s supported gate set and that all verbatim gates used in the circuit are in this validator’s native gate set.

Parameters:

circuit (Circuit) – The Braket circuit whose gates to validate.

Raises:

  • ValueError – If a gate operation or verbatim gate operation is not in this validator’s

  • supported or native gate set, respectively. –

Return type:

None
