After this change, any import that only takes and returns ABI-safe numbers (signed integers less than 64 bits and unrestricted floating point numbers) will be a direct import, and will not have a little JS shim in the middle. We don't have a great mechanism for testing the generated bindings' contents -- as opposed to its behavior -- but I manually verified that everything here does the Right Thing and doesn't have a JS shim: ```rust \#[wasm_bindgen] extern "C" { fn trivial(); fn incoming_i32() -> i32; fn incoming_f32() -> f32; fn incoming_f64() -> f64; fn outgoing_i32(x: i32); fn outgoing_f32(y: f32); fn outgoing_f64(z: f64); fn many(x: i32, y: f32, z: f64) -> i32; } ``` Furthermore, I verified that when our support for emitting native `anyref` is enabled, then we do not have a JS shim for the following import, but if it is disabled, then we do have a JS shim: ```rust \#[wasm_bindgen] extern "C" { fn works_when_anyref_support_is_enabled(v: JsValue) -> JsValue; } ``` Fixes #1636.
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.
