This commit adds support for closures with arguments like strings and such. In
other words, closures passed to JS can now have the same suite of arguments as
all functions that can be exported from Rust, as one might expect!
At this time due to the way trait objects work closures still cannot use types
with references like `&str`, but bare values like `String` or `ImportedType`
should work just fine.
Closes#104
This commit overhauls the conversion traits used for types crossing the Rust/JS
boundary. Previously there were a few ad-hoc traits but now there've been
slightly reduced and decoupled.
Conversion from Rust values to JS values is now exclusively done through
`IntoWasmAbi` with no special treatment for references. Conversion from JS to
Rust is a bit trickier as we want to create references in Rust which have
implications in terms of safety. As a result there are now three traits for
this, `FromWasmAbi`, `RefFromWasmAbi`, and `RefMutFromWasmAbi`. These three
traits are implemented for various types and specially dispatched to depending
on the type of argument in the code generator.
The goal of this commit is to lay the groundwork for using these traits in
closures with straightforward-ish definitions.
This commit adds support for passing `&mut FnMut(..)` to JS via imports. These
closures cannot be invoked recursively in JS (they invalidate themselves while
they're being invoked) and otherwise work the same as `&Fn(..)` closures.
Closes#123
This commit is a complete overhaul of how the `#[wasm_bindgen]` macro
communicates type information to the CLI tool, and it's done in a somewhat...
unconventional fashion.
Today we've got a problem where the generated JS needs to understand the types
of each function exported or imported. This understanding is what enables it to
generate the appropriate JS wrappers and such. We want to, however, be quite
flexible and extensible in types that are supported across the boundary, which
means that internally we rely on the trait system to resolve what's what.
Communicating the type information historically was done by creating a four byte
"descriptor" and using associated type projections to communicate that to the
CLI tool. Unfortunately four bytes isn't a lot of space to cram information like
arguments to a generic function, tuple types, etc. In general this just wasn't
flexible enough and the way custom references were treated was also already a
bit of a hack.
This commit takes a radical step of creating a **descriptor function** for each
function imported/exported. The really crazy part is that the `wasm-bindgen` CLI
tool now embeds a wasm interpreter and executes these functions when the CLI
tool is invoked. By allowing arbitrary functions to get executed it's now *much*
easier to inform `wasm-bindgen` about complicated structures of types. Rest
assured though that all these descriptor functions are automatically unexported
and gc'd away, so this should not have any impact on binary sizes
A new internal trait, `WasmDescribe`, is added to represent a description of all
types, sort of like a serialization of the structure of a type that
`wasm-bindgen` can understand. This works by calling a special exported function
with a `u32` value a bunch of times. This means that when we run a descriptor we
effectively get a `Vec<u32>` in the `wasm-bindgen` CLI tool. This list of
integers can then be parsed into a rich `enum` for the JS generation to work
with.
This commit currently only retains feature parity with the previous
implementation. I hope to soon solve issues like #123, #104, and #111 with this
support.
* Have the global `wasm_bindgen` variable be a function which runs
initialization rather than exporting an `init` function.
* Save off the wasm object on `wasm_bindgen.wasm` so the memory can be accessed
* Tidy up the code slightly
Node's fs APIs resolve relative paths relative to the current working directory:
https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_file_paths
This creates a problem if you try to require the wasm-bindgen-generated
JavaScript from a different directory. For example, if you have
build/foo.js
build/foo_bg.js
build/foo_bg.wasm
and another script, script/index.js, that requires build/foo.js. We can instead
use __dirname to get the correct path to the file.
Nowadays the compile times are mitigated with incremental compilation and
otherwise it's much more ergonomic to run only one test if they're all in the
same suite.
