WASI API bindings for Rust
Documentation
//! Raw API bindings to the [WebAssembly System Interface (WASI)][WASI]
//!
//! [WASI]: https://github.com/WebAssembly/WASI
//!
//! This crate provides Rust API bindings to the imports of [WASI] [worlds] such
//! as:
//!
//! * [`wasi:cli/command`]
//! * [`wasi:http/proxy`]
//!
//! This crate is procedurally generated with the [`wit-bindgen`] bindings
//! generator. Note that generated code is published to crates.io to slim this
//! crate down in terms of build dependencies and resources.
//!
//! # What is WASI?
//!
//! [WASI] is a set of APIs defined for the WebAssembly [Component Model] to
//! help components interact with the outside world. Core WebAssembly has no
//! intrinsic ability to access the host, for example `println!` don't work, but
//! [WASI] defines how to do so with the [`wasi:cli/stdio`] package.
//!
//! [WASI] is defined by an IDL called [WIT] using files that have the extension
//! `*.wit`. [WASI] and [WIT] are themselves then both defined in terms of the
//! [Component Model] in terms of types available and base semantics for APIs.
//!
//! [WASI] defines a number of standard "worlds" which are a description of a
//! what a WebAssembly component can import from an embedding and must export to
//! an embedding. An example world is [`wasi:cli/command`] which is a world for
//! running CLI applications. This world provides basic system utilities such as
//! clocks, a filesystem, CLI arguments, etc. The one required export is a main
//! function.
//!
//! The purpose of this crate is to provide pregenerated bindings to access
//! [WASI]-defined imports available to components.
//!
//! # What is a Component?
//!
//! An important aspect of [WASI] is that it is defined in terms of the
//! [Component Model]. The [Component Model] is a proposal for WebAssembly which
//! is a new format for wasm binaries, a component. A component contains "core"
//! WebAssembly modules (which are [standard WebAssembly modules]) but also has
//! the ability to do more:
//!
//! * A component can contain multiple core WebAssembly modules.
//! * Types used with component imports and exports are more comprehensive than
//!   core WebAssembly. Core WebAssembly provides integers and floats, for
//!   example, and components build on this and add strings, records (aka a Rust
//!   `struct`), variants (aka a Rust `enum`), and resources (think a file
//!   descriptor on Unix).
//! * A component provides procedural instructions of how to instantiate its
//!   internal core WebAssembly modules with the imports it has.
//!
//! The [Component Model] is a not considered an official WebAssembly standard
//! at this time. It has been in development for 5 years (as of January 2024),
//! however, and the WASI 0.2.0 milestone (more on versioning in a moment) in
//! January 2024 represents a concrete target for ecosystems to use. Runtimes
//! such as [Wasmtime] support the [Component Model] for out-of-browser usage
//! and [jco] is an example of how components can be run in a browser.
//!
//! A full description of the component model is out of scope for this crate's
//! documentation but it suffices to say that [WASI], and this crate, are
//! intended to target components. Components use core WebAssembly modules as an
//! important technical detail, but the final output of this crate is intended
//! to be a component.
//!
//! # What are generated bindings?
//!
//! Above it was seen that [WASI] is defined with [WIT]. These programmatic
//! descriptions of [WASI] APIs are not suitable for use directly in Rust,
//! however these descriptions define how Rust can use them. Each [WIT] function
//! has a defined meaning in core WebAssembly via the [Canonical ABI]. This is a
//! lower level than most users want to operate at, however, so the generated
//! bindings in this crate serve as the bridge.
//!
//! More specifically the generated functions in this crate take the [Canonical
//! ABI] format of [WIT] functions and provide idiomatic Rust functions to call.
//! For example the [`wasi:cli/environment`] definition includes:
//!
//! ```wit
//! interface environment {
//!     // ...
//!     get-environment: func() -> list<tuple<string, string>>;
//!     // ...
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! This corresponds to
//! [`wasi::cli::environment::get_environment`](crate::cli::environment::get_environment).
//!
//! Bindings are pre-generated in this crate with the [`wit-bindgen`] tool. You
//! can also generate your own bindings with [`wit-bindgen`] and [WASI] [WIT]
//! files too, but that's not covered by this crate.
//!
//! # WASI Today and `wasi_snapshot_preview1`
//!
//! This crate is based on the 0.2.0 version of [WASI] APIs. This version of
//! [WASI] was declared "phase 3" (suitable for general use and testing) in
//! January of 2024. Prior to this 0.2.0 "preview2" release of [WASI] there was
//! `wasi_snapshot_preview1`. This previous "preview1" release of [WASI] was
//! circa 2019 and was the initial vision for [WASI] as a standard. Development
//! of [WASI] migrated to the [Component Model] in the meantime.
//!
//! This means that the old `wasi_snapshot_preview1` interfaces are no longer
//! provided by this crate because [WASI] is no longer defined by those
//! interfaces. This includes the historical `*.witx` format which has now been
//! sueprseded. Note that the 0.11.x release series of this crate contains
//! bindings to the historical `wasi_snapshot_preview1` APIs if you're
//! interested in using them.
//!
//! # Crate Organization
//!
//! This crate is currently entirely generated by [`wit-bindgen`] which has the
//! following structure:
//!
//! * Each [WIT] package with bindings corresponds to a top-level module. For
//!   example [`wasi:random`] can be found in the [`random`] module.
//! * Each [WIT] interface then corresponds to a submodule of its package's
//!   module. For example [`wasi:random/insecure`] can be found in the
//!   [`random::insecure`] module.
//! * Each [WIT] function has a Rust function with an idiomatic signature.
//!   module. For example [`random::insecure::get_insecure_random_u64`].
//!
//! Note that [WIT] documentation is rendered as rustdoc documentation in these
//! APIs as well.
//!
//! # Using this Crate
//!
//! This crate is intended to be easiest to use with a future
//! `wasm32-wasip2` target added to the Rust compiler. In the meantime
//! it's recommended to use the `wasm32-wasi` target (soon to be renamed to
//! `wasm32-wasip1`) instead:
//!
//! ```sh
//! $ cargo build --target wasm32-wasi
//! ```
//!
//! Note that the output of the `wasm32-wasi` target is a core wasm module, not
//! a component, so to turn it into a component you can use the [`wasm-tools`]
//! CLI in combination with an "adapter module" for the `wasi_snapshot_preview1`
//! APIs that the Rust standard library uses (example adapters can be found on
//! [Wasmtime's release page][adapters] as
//! [`wasi_snapshot_preview1.command.wasm`] for example)
//!
//! ```sh
//! $ wasm-tools component new ./target/wasm32-wasi/debug/my-app.wasm \
//!     --adapt ./wasi_snapshot_preview1.command.wasm \
//!     -o my-component.wasm
//! ```
//!
//! ## Export Macros
//!
//! In addition to providing bindings for imports this crate also provides
//! macros to export the `wasi:cli/run` and `wasi:http/proxy` worlds, see their
//! respective documentation for more information:
//!
//! - [`wasi::cli::command::export!`](crate::cli::command::export)
