This lets us avoid the cost of `cranelift_codegen::ir::Opcode` to `peepmatic_runtime::Operator` conversion overhead, and paves the way for allowing Peepmatic to support non-clif optimizations (e.g. vcode optimizations). Rather than defining our own `peepmatic::Operator` type like we used to, now the whole `peepmatic` crate is effectively generic over a `TOperator` type parameter. For the Cranelift integration, we use `cranelift_codegen::ir::Opcode` as the concrete type for our `TOperator` type parameter. For testing, we also define a `TestOperator` type, so that we can test Peepmatic code without building all of Cranelift, and we can keep them somewhat isolated from each other. The methods that `peepmatic::Operator` had are now translated into trait bounds on the `TOperator` type. These traits need to be shared between all of `peepmatic`, `peepmatic-runtime`, and `cranelift-codegen`'s Peepmatic integration. Therefore, these new traits live in a new crate: `peepmatic-traits`. This crate acts as a header file of sorts for shared trait/type/macro definitions. Additionally, the `peepmatic-runtime` crate no longer depends on the `peepmatic-macro` procedural macro crate, which should lead to faster build times for Cranelift when it is using pre-built peephole optimizers.
wasmtime
A standalone runtime for WebAssembly
A Bytecode Alliance project
Guide | Contributing | Website | Chat
Installation
The Wasmtime CLI can be installed on Linux and macOS with a small install script:
$ curl https://wasmtime.dev/install.sh -sSf | bash
Windows or otherwise interested users can download installers and binaries directly from the GitHub Releases page.
Example
If you've got the Rust compiler installed then you can take some Rust source code:
fn main() {
println!("Hello, world!");
}
and compile/run it with:
$ rustup target add wasm32-wasi
$ rustc hello.rs --target wasm32-wasi
$ wasmtime hello.wasm
Hello, world!
Features
-
Lightweight. Wasmtime is a standalone runtime for WebAssembly that scales with your needs. It fits on tiny chips as well as makes use of huge servers. Wasmtime can be embedded into almost any application too.
-
Fast. Wasmtime is built on the optimizing Cranelift code generator to quickly generate high-quality machine code at runtime.
-
Configurable. Whether you need to precompile your wasm ahead of time, generate code blazingly fast with Lightbeam, or interpret it at runtime, Wasmtime has you covered for all your wasm-executing needs.
-
WASI. Wasmtime supports a rich set of APIs for interacting with the host environment through the WASI standard.
-
Standards Compliant. Wasmtime passes the official WebAssembly test suite, implements the official C API of wasm, and implements future proposals to WebAssembly as well. Wasmtime developers are intimately engaged with the WebAssembly standards process all along the way too.
Language Support
You can use Wasmtime from a variety of different languages through embeddings of the implementation:
- Rust - the
wasmtimecrate - C - the
wasm.h,wasi.h, andwasmtime.hheaders - Python - the
wasmtimePyPI package - .NET - the
WasmtimeNuGet package - Go - the
wasmtime-gorepository
