canic-wasm-store

Canonical wasm_store canister crate for Canic.

This crate exists so downstream projects can build the implicit Canic wasm_store role from a published canonical source instead of carrying their own local wasm_store canister crate.

Who should use this crate

Use this crate directly when you:

• want the canonical published wasm_store role in a downstream workspace
• need to build or package wasm_store from a source crate instead of copying a local role crate
• are wiring the standard Canic root/bootstrap/store topology

Most ordinary Canic canister projects should start with canic, not canic-wasm-store.

What this crate owns

This crate is intentionally narrow. It owns the published source for the canonical wasm_store role and depends on canic with control-plane enabled so the role stays aligned with the rest of the root/store runtime.

It is not a general facade crate and it is not intended to replace canic as the normal entry surface for application canisters.

Canonical DID ownership

wasm_store.did is the checked-in canonical interface for this crate. Ordinary local/bootstrap artifact builds copy that file into .dfx/local/canisters/wasm_store/wasm_store.did; they do not rewrite the checked-in source file as a side effect of unrelated workspace changes.

If you intentionally need to refresh the canonical checked-in DID from the built crate, run the bootstrap builder with:

CANIC_REFRESH_WASM_STORE_DID=1 canic-build-wasm-store-artifact
