waPC implementation for Rust

waPC is a protocol for communicating in and out of WebAssembly. This repository contains the Rust implementations for waPC hosts, guests, compatible codecs, and implementations for wasmtime and wasm3 engines.

For more information about waPC, see https://wapc.io

Example

This code sets up a waPC host using the wasmtime WebAssembly engine. It loads a waPC guest WebAssembly module created by the waPC CLI and executes the operation "echo" with the string payload "hello world".

use std::fs::read;

use wapc::{errors, WapcHost};
use wapc_codec::messagepack::{deserialize, serialize};

fn main() -> Result<(), errors::Error> {
    let buf = read("../wapc-guest-test/build/wapc_guest_test.wasm")?;

    let engine = wasmtime_provider::WasmtimeEngineProvider::new(&buf, None)?;
    let guest = WapcHost::new(
        Box::new(engine),
        Some(Box::new(move |_a, _b, _c, _d, _e| Ok(vec![]))),
    )?;

    let callresult = guest.call("echo", &serialize("hello world").unwrap())?;
    let result: String = deserialize(&callresult).unwrap();
    assert_eq!(result, "hello world");
    Ok(())
}

Projects

wapc-guest Crates badge

The wapc-guest crate is used for Rust projects that will compile down to WebAssembly. It's typically used by code generated from the wapc CLI tool.

wapc (host) Crates badge

The wapc crate is for projects that want to run waPC WebAssembly modules. It contains the WebAssemblyEngineProvider trait which is used by the following projects to provide compatible implementations across multiple WebAssembly engines.

A full waPC host requires wapc combined with one of the WebAssembly engine providers below.

wapc-pool Crates badge

The wapc-pool crate is an elastic threadpool for WapcHosts. You provide a WapcHost generator function and wapc-pool takes care of scaling and limiting worker threads.

wasmtime-provider Crates badge

The wasmtime-provider crate implements the WebAssemblyEngineProvider trait for the wasmtime engine.

Demo

$ cargo run -p wasmtime-provider --example wasmtime-demo ./wasm/crates/wasm-basic/build/wasm_basic.wasm ping "hi"

wasm3-provider Crates badge

The wasm3-provider crate implements the WebAssemblyEngineProvider trait for the wasm3 engine.

Demo

$ cargo run -p wasm3-provider --example wasm3-demo ./wasm/crates/wasm-basic/build/wasm_basic.wasm ping "hi"

wapc-codec

Crates badge

The wapc-codec crate exposes compatible serialization and deserialization methods for sending data in and out of WASM modules.

Demo

$ cargo run -p wapc-codec --example roundtrip

wapc-guest-codegen

Npm badge

The wapc-guest-codegen project includes the JavaScript source that the wapc CLI uses to generate code for Rust guests.

Demo

$ wapc new rust <directory>

Running tests

Note: rebuilding the wapc-guest-test project requires the waPC CLI.

Run make test from the root to build the guest wasm and run the tests for all projects in the workspace.

Note: Test wasm files

The wasm files and projects in this repository are for testing. They may not be good examples of practical wasm projects. Don't use them as examples of best practice.

waPC Guest Test

  • wasm/crates/wapc-guest-test/build/wapc_guest_test.wasm - operation is echo and takes a string.

wasm + wasi

Both these projects respondo to an operation named ping. ping makes one host call for pong and then returns the payload back to the caller.

  • wasm/crates/wasm-basic/build/wasm_basic.wasm
  • wasm/crates/wasi-basic/build/wasi_basic.wasm

Cross-language

  • ./wasm/hello_as.wasm - operation is hello
  • ./wasm/hello_tinygo.wasm - operation is hello
  • ./wasm/hello_zig.wasm - operation is hello
