Recent refactorings of wasm-bindgen have inserted multiple `gc` passes executed by walrus. In these passes though the function table was being removed a bit too aggressively because it's not exported by LLD and it's only later that we realize we need to export it. To handle this case we add synthetic and temporary exports of the function table and these exports are removed just after the GC pass in question. Closes #1603
wasm-bindgen
Facilitating high-level interactions between Wasm modules and JavaScript.
Guide | API Docs | Contributing | Chat
Built with 🦀🕸 by The Rust and WebAssembly Working Group
Example
Import JavaScript things into Rust and export Rust things to JavaScript.
use wasm_bindgen::prelude::*;
// Import the `window.alert` function from the Web.
#[wasm_bindgen]
extern "C" {
fn alert(s: &str);
}
// Export a `greet` function from Rust to JavaScript, that alerts a
// hello message.
#[wasm_bindgen]
pub fn greet(name: &str) {
alert(&format!("Hello, {}!", name));
}
Use exported Rust things from JavaScript with ECMAScript modules!
import { greet } from "./hello_world";
greet("World!");
Features
-
Lightweight. Only pay for what you use.
wasm-bindgen
only generates bindings and glue for the JavaScript imports you actually use and Rust functionality that you export. For example, importing and using thedocument.querySelector
method doesn't causeNode.prototype.appendChild
orwindow.alert
to be included in the bindings as well. -
ECMAScript modules. Just import WebAssembly modules the same way you would import JavaScript modules. Future compatible with WebAssembly modules and ECMAScript modules integration.
-
Designed with the "Web IDL bindings" proposal in mind. Eventually, there won't be any JavaScript shims between Rust-generated wasm functions and native DOM methods. Because the wasm functions are statically type checked, some of those native methods' dynamic type checks should become unnecessary, promising to unlock even-faster-than-JavaScript DOM access.
