Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

μWASI

This library provides a WASI implementation for Node.js and browsers in a tree-shaking friendly way. The system calls provided by this library are configurable.

With minimal configuration, it provides WASI system calls which just return WASI_ENOSYS.

Features

Installation

npm install uwasi

Example

With all system calls enabled

import { WASI, useAll } from "uwasi";
import fs from "node:fs/promises";

async function main() {
    const wasi = new WASI({
        args: process.argv.slice(2),
        features: [useAll()],
    });
    const bytes = await fs.readFile(process.argv[2]);
    const { instance } = await WebAssembly.instantiate(bytes, {
        wasi_snapshot_preview1: wasi.wasiImport,
    });
    const exitCode = wasi.start(instance);
    console.log("exit code:", exitCode);

/* With Reactor model
    wasi.initialize(instance);
*/
}

main()

With no system calls enabled

import { WASI, useAll } from "uwasi";

const wasi = new WASI({
    features: [],
});

With environ, args, clock, proc, and random enabled

import { WASI, useArgs, useClock } from "uwasi";

const wasi = new WASI({
    args: ["./a.out", "hello", "world"],
    features: [useEnviron, useArgs, useClock, useProc, useRandom()],
});

With fd (file descriptor) enabled only for stdio

By default, stdin behaves like /dev/null, stdout and stderr print to the console.

import { WASI, useStdio } from "uwasi";

const wasi = new WASI({
    features: [useStdio()],
});

You can use custom backends for stdio by passing handlers to useStdio.

import { WASI, useStdio } from "uwasi";

const inputs = ["Y", "N", "Y", "Y"];
const wasi = new WASI({
    features: [useStdio({
        stdin: () => inputs.shift() || "",
        stdout: (str) => document.body.innerHTML += str,
        stderr: (str) => document.body.innerHTML += str,
    })],
});

By default, the stdout and stderr handlers are passed strings. You can pass outputBuffers: true to get Uint8Array buffers instead. Along with that, you can also pass Uint8Array buffers to stdin.

import { WASI, useStdio } from "uwasi";
const wasi = new WASI({
    features: [useStdio({
        outputBuffers: true,
        stdin: () => new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]),
        stdout: (buf) => console.log(buf),
        stderr: (buf) => console.error(buf),
    })],
});

Implementation Status

Some of WASI system calls are not implemented yet. Contributions are welcome!

| Syscall | Status | Notes | |-------|----------|---------| | args_XXX | ✅ | | | clock_XXX | ✅ | Monotonic clock is unavailable due to JS API limitation | | environ_XXX | ✅ | | | fd_XXX | 🚧 | stdin/stdout/stderr are supported | | path_XXX | ❌ | | | poll_oneoff | ❌ | | | proc_XXX | ✅ | | | random_get | ✅ | | | sched_yield | ❌ | | | sock_XXX | ❌ | |
