This commit adds a new attribute to `#[wasm_bindgen]`: `start`. The
`start` attribute can be used to indicate that a function should be
executed when the module is loaded, configuring the `start` function of
the wasm executable. While this doesn't necessarily literally configure
the `start` section, it does its best!
Only one crate in a crate graph may indicate `#[wasm_bindgen(start)]`,
so it's not recommended to be used in libraries but only end-user
applications. Currently this still must be used with the `crate-type =
["cdylib"]` annotation in `Cargo.toml`.
The implementation here is somewhat tricky because of the circular
dependency between our generated JS and the wasm file that we emit. This
circular dependency makes running initialization routines (like the
`start` shim) particularly fraught with complications because one may
need to run before the other but bundlers may not necessarily respect
it. Workarounds have been implemented for various emission strategies,
for example calling the start function directly after exports are wired
up with `--no-modules` and otherwise working around what appears to be
a Webpack bug with initializers running in a different order than we'd
like. In any case, this in theory doesn't show up to the end user!
Closes#74
This commit implements the first half of [RFC #5] where the `Deref`
trait is implemented for all imported types. The target of `Deref` is
either the first entry of the list of `extends` attribute or `JsValue`.
All examples using `.as_ref()` with various `web-sys` types have been
updated to the more ergonomic deref casts now. Additionally the
`web-sys` generation of the `extends` array has been fixed slightly to
explicitly list implementatoins in the hierarchy order to ensure the
correct target for `Deref` is chosen.
[RFC #5]: https://github.com/rustwasm/rfcs/blob/master/text/005-structural-and-deref.md
This commit updates all examples to not use `path` dependencies but
rather use versioned dependencies like would typically be found in the
wild. This should hopefully make the examples more copy-pastable and
less alien to onlookers!
The development of the examples remains the same where they continue to
use the `wasm-bindgen`, `js-sys`, `web-sys`, etc from in-tree. The
workspace-level `[patch]` section ensures that they use the in-tree
versions instead of the crates.io versions.
This commit does a few things, including:
* Fixing the generated JS of `wasm-bindgen` to allow polyfills to work.
(a minor tweak of the generated JS)
* All examples are updated to include a Webpack-specific polyfill for
these two types to get examples working in Edge.
* A new page has been added to the guide about supported browsers. This
mentions known caveats like IE 11 requiring `wasm2js` as well as
documenting some `TextEncoder` and `TextDecoder` workarounds for Edge.
Closes#895
Some examples have been failing to load in some browsers, and this
ensures that whenever the promise to load Rust code fails we log any
errors happening instead of accidentally failing silently.
This helped debug a bit in #897
Rejigger Travis slightly to take advantage of build stages to build the
`gh-pages` branch amongst a set of builders, and then when they're all
done we synchronize and deploy the site. For now use S3 as a backing
store for data between jobs.
This commit is a large-ish scale reorganization of our examples. The
main goal here is to have a dedicated section of the guide for example,
and all examples will be listed there. Each example's `README` is now
just boilerplate pointing at the guide along with a blurb about how to
run it.
Some examples like `math` and `smorgasboard` have been deleted as they
didn't really serve much purpose, and others like `closures` have been
rewritten with `web-sys` instead of hand-bound bindings.
Overall it's hoped that this puts us in a good and consistent state for
our examples, with all of them being described in the guide, excerpts
are in the guide, and they're all relatively idiomatically using
`web-sys`.
