binutils-wasm

This project is divided into several components:

• A WebAssembly version of GNU Binutils, which is available as an NPM package for use in both Node.js and browser environments. (This README is about this component)
• A command-line tool that is based on the aforementioned package. It provides a variety of platform-specific Binutils that can be used on any device supporting Node.js (work in progress).
• A static web page built on the aforementioned package that offers assembly and disassembly for multiple architectures. It's accessible directly through a web browser. (Refer to the GitHub page for more details)

Introduction

This is a WebAssembly port of GNU Assembler. It's available as an NPM package that can be used in Node.js or browser environments. The package is built using EMScripten.

Features

• Supports ALL architectures that are supported by GNU Binutils
• Nearly identical in functionality to the original GNU Binutils

Usage

To use it, install the package from NPM and import it into your project.

npm install @binutils-wasm/binutils

import loader from "@binutils-wasm/binutils";

const objdump = await loader('objdump');

await objdump({
    print: console.log,
    printErr: console.error,
    arguments: ['-d', 'a.out'],
    preRun: [(m) => {
        m.FS.writeFile('a.out', new Uint8Array([0x7f, 0x45, 0x4c, 0x46, 0x02, 0x01, 0x01, ...]));
    }],
    postRun: [(m) => {
        console.log(m.FS.readFile('a.out'));
    }]
})
