# Wasmer-Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wasmer-runtime is a library that makes embedding WebAssembly
|
|
|
|
in your application easy, efficient, and safe.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# How to use Wasmer-Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The easiest way is to use the [`instantiate`] function to create an [`Instance`].
|
|
|
|
Then you can use [`call`] or [`func`] and then [`call`][func.call] to call an exported function safely.
|
|
|
|
|

|
[`instantiate`]: https://docs.rs/wasmer-runtime/*/wasmer_runtime/fn.instantiate.html
|
|
|
|
[`Instance`]: https://docs.rs/wasmer-runtime/*/wasmer_runtime/struct.Instance.html
|
|
|
|
[`call`]: https://docs.rs/wasmer-runtime/*/wasmer_runtime/struct.Instance.html#method.call
|
|
|
|
[`func`]: https://docs.rs/wasmer-runtime/*/wasmer_runtime/struct.Instance.html#method.func
|
|
|
|
[func.call]: https://docs.rs/wasmer-runtime/*/wasmer_runtime/struct.Function.html#method.call
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Here's an example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Given this WebAssembly:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```wat
|
|
|
|
(module
|
|
|
|
(type $t0 (func (param i32) (result i32)))
|
|
|
|
(func $add_one (export "add_one") (type $t0) (param $p0 i32) (result i32)
|
|
|
|
get_local $p0
|
|
|
|
i32.const 1
|
|
|
|
i32.add))
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compiled into wasm bytecode, we can call the exported "add_one" function:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
|
|
static WASM: &'static [u8] = &[
|
|
|
|
// The module above compiled to bytecode goes here.

|
|
|
|
];
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
use wasmer_runtime::{
|
|
|
|
instantiate,
|
|
|
|
Value,
|
|
|
|
imports,
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fn main() -> error::Result<()> {
|
|
|
|
// We're not importing anything, so make an empty import object.
|
|
|
|
let import_object = imports! {};
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
let mut instance = instantiate(WASM, &import_object)?;
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
let values = instance
|
|
|
|
.func("add_one")?
|
|
|
|
.call(&[Value::I32(42)])?;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assert_eq!(values[0], Value::I32(43));
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ok(())
|
|
|
|

# Additional Notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `wasmer-runtime` is build to support compiler multiple backends.
|
|
|
|
Currently, we support the [Cranelift] compiler with the [`wasmer-clif-backend`] crate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can specify the compiler you wish to use with the [`compile_with`] function.
