libavoid-js v0.4.2

libavoid-js

Libavoid port for js. This port is created mostly using WebIDL Bindings.

Usage

There are two versions of the library:

• Release version of the library is in dist directory
• Debug version of the library is in examples/lib directory

A usage example is in examples directory. To try it out start http server in this directory, just opening index.html in your browser doesn't work unfortunately.

The library works in both webbrowser and node.js environments.

Documentation

Library API Documentation is in api_docs_build directory, just open index.html

FAQ

• I get the following error: RuntimeError: Aborted(CompileError: WebAssembly.instantiate(): expected magic word ...

  It means, that libavoid.wasm file is invalid. Please check in Network tab of the browser, that it is downloaded without errors and its size is the same as of libavoid.wasm file.

Build

Requirements

• Git (to clone original libavoid library and build tools)
• Docker (used to run emcc)
• Python 3.5+ (used for tooling/build automation)

Build commands

1. python3 ./tools/generate.py

   It will generate both release and debug versions of the library, also update documentation.

2. npm run build

   It will create a package with generated release version of the library.

Debugging

Address to source map is hardcoded in tools/generate.py script and is always 'http://localhost:8080' in debug build.

Also, symlink to adaptagrams should be in examples directory to provide libavoid sources for debugger.
