This commit deprecates the `--web`, `--no-modules`, and `--nodejs` flags
in favor of one `--target` flag. The motivation for this commit is to be
consistent between `wasm-bindgen` and `wasm-pack` so documentation for
one is applicable for the other (so we don't have to document everywhere
what the translation is between flags). Additionally this should make it
a bit easier to add new targets (if necessary) in the future as it won't
add to the proliferation of flags.
For now the old flags (like `--web`) continue to be accepted, but
they'll be removed during the next set of breaking changes for
`wasm-bindgen`.
... and add a parallel raytracing demo!
This commit adds enough support to `wasm-bindgen` to produce a workable
wasm binary *today* with the experimental WebAssembly threads support
implemented in Firefox Nightly. I've tried to comment what's going on in
the commits and such, but at a high level the changes made here are:
* A new transformation, living in a new `wasm-bindgen-threads-xform`
crate, prepares a wasm module for parallel execution. This performs a
number of mundane tasks which I hope to detail in a blog post later on.
* The `--no-modules` output is enhanced with more support for when
shared memory is enabled, allowing passing in the module/memory to
initialize the wasm instance on multiple threads (sharing both module
and memory).
* The `wasm-bindgen` crate now offers the ability, in `--no-modules`
mode, to get a handle on the `WebAssembly.Module` instance.
* The example itself requires Xargo to recompile the standard library
with atomics and an experimental feature enabled. Afterwards it
experimentally also enables threading support in wasm-bindgen.
I've also added hopefully enough CI support to compile this example in a
builder so we can upload it and poke around live online. I hope to
detail more about the technical details here in a blog post soon as
well!
