wassemble
wassemble
is a JavaScript tool to convert WebAssembly standard textual
format (wat) to binary (wasm). It is a single file of JavaScript with
no dependencies.
Note, wabt is a more
full-featured toolkit for working with WebAssembly, both in textual and
binary formats, and includes a tool called wat2wasm
. However
sometimes you just want a simple JS file to drop into your projects;
that's what wassemble
is about. You could think of it as a clone of
wabt's wat2wasm
, but built in a different way.
Differences from wabt
Unlike wat2wasm
, wassemble
does minimal error-checking. Notably, it
doesn't type-check the module; it assumes the WebAssembly implementation
will signal any validation-time errors when the module is instantiated.
As such, this tool is most useful for compiling known-valid wat
files,
or for generating known-invalid modules for fuzzing or testing purposes.
Install
npm install wassemble
As this project has no dependencies, alternately you can just drop
wassemble.mjs
anywhere in your project tree.
