Preview2 Shim

WASI Preview2 implementations for Node.js & browsers.

Node.js support is fully tested and conformant against the Wasmtime test suite.

Browser support is considered experimental, and not currently suitable for production applications.

Features

WASI Shim object for easy instantiation

An default instantiation object can be used via the WASIShim class in @bytecodealliance/preview2-shim/instantiation:

import { WASIShim } from '@bytecodealliance/preview2-shim/instantiation';
import type {
    VersionedWASIImportObject,
    WASIImportObject,
} from '@bytecodealliance/preview2-shim/instantiation';

const shim = new WASIShim();

const unversioned: WASIImportObject = shim.getImportObject();
// console.log('unversioned', unversioned);
unversioned satisfies WASIImportObject;
unversioned satisfies VersionedWASIImportObject<''>;

const versioned: VersionedWASIImportObject<'0.2.3'> = shim.getImportObject({
    asVersion: '0.2.3',
});
//console.log('versioned', versioned);
versioned satisfies VersionedWASIImportObject<'0.2.3'>;

The import object generated by getImportObject can be easily used in instantiate() calls produced by jco transpile (with --instantiation=async):

import { WASIShim } from '@bytecodealliance/preview2-shim/instantiation';

// The code below assumes that you have output your transpiled WebAssembly component to `dist/transpiled`
import { instantiate } from './dist/transpiled/component.js';

const loader = async (path: string) => {
    const buf = await readFile(`./dist/transpiled/${path}`);
    return await WebAssembly.compile(buf.buffer as ArrayBuffer);
};
const component = await instantiate(loader, new WASIShim().getImportObject());

// TODO: Code that uses your component's exports goes here.
