waPC
This is the Rust implementation of the waPC standard for WebAssembly host runtimes. It allows any WebAssembly module to be loaded as a guest and receive requests for invocation as well as to make its own function requests of the host. This library allows for both "pure" (completely isolated) wasm modules as well as WASI modules
This crate defines the protocol for RPC exchange between guest (WebAssembly) modules and the host runtime. That protocol can be satisfied by any engine that implements the right trait. This allows you to choose the WebAssembly low-level "driver" that best suits your needs, whether it be JITted or interpreted or bespoke.
Example
The following is a simple example of synchronous, bi-directional procedure calls between a WebAssembly host runtime and the guest module.
extern crate wapc;
use WasmtimeEngineProvider;
use *;
For running examples, take a look at the examples available in the individual engine provider repositories:
- wasmtime-provider - Utilizes the Bytecode Alliance runtime wasmtime for WebAssembly JIT compilation and execution.
- wasm3-provider - Uses the wasm3 C interpreter runtime (with a Rust wrapper)
