@logue/wasmc v2.2.2

wasmc

Simplifies building of WebAssembly modules from C and C++

• Handles compiling, linking and packaging of C and C++ WASM/JS projects
• Zero dependencies -- portable single-file program
• Includes rollup and uglify functionality, producing very small products

Usage

usage: wasmc [options] [<dir>]
usage: wasmc [-C <dir>] -T<tool> [<tool-arg> ...]
options:
  -debug, -g       Disable optimizations and include data for debuggers.
  -watch, -w       Watch source files and rebuild as needed.
  -config <file>   Load config file from <file> instead of <dir>/wasmc.js
  -clean           Rebuild even when product and sources are up to date.
  -quiet, -q       Do not print information to stdout except for warnings and errors
  -help, -h        Show help message and exit
  -C <dir>         Change working directory; as if wasmc was invoked from <dir>.
  -T<tool>         Run <tool> instead of building. -T for list of tools.

<dir>
  The module directory. Defaults to "." (dirname(<file>) with -config)

Example

See the example directory for a complete example.

Input foo.c:

#include <stdio.h>
export void hello() {
  printf("Hello from wasm\n");
}

Input foo.js:

export const ready = Module.ready;
export function hello() {
  _hello(); // Call WASM function "hello"
}

Config file wasmc.js

module({
  name: "foo",
  out: "dist/foo.js",
  jsentry: "foo.js",
  sources: "*.c",
});

Build:

\$ wasmc

Generated dist/foo.js:

(function (exports) {
  "use strict";
  // -- emscripten bootstrap code here --
  Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: !0 });
  exports.ready = Module.ready;
  exports.hello = function () {
    _hello();
  };
})(typeof exports != "undefined" ? exports : (this["foo"] = {}));
//# sourceMappingURL=foo.js.map

Run:

$ node -e 'require("./out/foo.js").ready.then(m => m.hello())'
Hello from wasm

Configuration file

wasmc looks for wasmc.js in the project directory and evaluates it.

You can define modules (WASM products) and "libs" (collection of C and/or C++ files compiled with certain flags) in this file.

• See examples/example/wasmc.js for an example.
• See misc/config-file.d.ts for a complete API description of the configuration file.

Building from source

npm install
./misc/build.sh

• Release product: wasmc
• Debug product: wasmc.g
• Build only the debug product: ./misc/build.sh -g
• Build debug product while watching source files: ./misc/build.sh -w
