scripts: {
    "inlinewasm": "inlinewasm wasm/sample.wasm --output build/sample.js"
}

Options

• --input file The .wasm file to inline

• -o, --output file The .js file to create

• -t, --type typeName The type of JavaScript file to generate

• -h, --help Show this Help page

Types

Each type outputs a different variant of JavaScript file

-type fetch

Creates a JavaScript file with a default export function that can be used anywhere you could use fetch(). e.g.

import fetchSample from 'sample'; // sample.js contains the bundled .wasm

WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming(fetchSample)
    .then(obj => obj.instance.exports.exported_func());

-type decoded

Creates a JavaScript file with a default export byte array containing the decoded .wasm content

Note: You'll probably want to use WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming() in most cases, as it is more efficient than instantiate().

import decodedSample from 'sample'; // sample.js contains the bundled .wasm

WebAssembly.instantiate(decodedSample)
    .then(obj => obj.instance.exports.exported_func());

-type encoded

Creates a JavaScript file with a default export string value containing the base64 encoded .wasm file

import encodedSample from 'sample'; // sample.js contains the bundled .wasm

// Decode the base64 string then compile...
