| 9 | +# Quick Start |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +This guide walks you through the process of building a simple WebAssembly transport module in Go with TinyGo, with the helper libraries provided by Project WATER. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Prerequisites |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +- [TinyGo](https://tinygo.org/getting-started/) v0.31.0 or later |
| 16 | + - TinyGo v0.31.0 is used in this guide |
| 17 | +- [Go](https://go.dev/) compatible with your TinyGo version |
| 18 | + - Go 1.22 is used in this guide |
| 19 | +- Internet connection for Go to download the required packages |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +## Build a String Reversing WATM |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +First, create a new directory for your WATM project and navigate to it. Initialize your Go module with `go mod init` and required parameters. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +```go |
| 26 | +package main |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +import ( |
| 29 | + "io" |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + v0 "github.com/refraction-networking/watm/tinygo/v0" |
| 32 | + v0net "github.com/refraction-networking/watm/tinygo/v0/net" |
| 33 | +) |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +var dupBuf []byte = make([]byte, 4096) // 4KB buffer for reversing |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +// type guard: ReverseWrappingTransport must implement [v0.WrappingTransport]. |
| 38 | +var _ v0.WrappingTransport = (*ReverseWrappingTransport)(nil) |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +// Inside the init function, we register the ReverseWrappingTransport with |
| 41 | +// the helper libraries to enable all three types of transport modules: |
| 42 | +// - Dialer |
| 43 | +// - Listener |
| 44 | +// - Relay |
| 45 | +func init() { |
| 46 | + v0.BuildDialerWithWrappingTransport(&ReverseWrappingTransport{}) |
| 47 | + v0.BuildListenerWithWrappingTransport(&ReverseWrappingTransport{}) |
| 48 | + v0.BuildRelayWithWrappingTransport(&ReverseWrappingTransport{}, v0.RelayWrapRemote) |
| 49 | +} |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +// main function is required for TinyGo to build the WATM. |
| 52 | +// It can be empty or contain any code you want to execute |
| 53 | +// when the WATM is loaded -- yes, this function will be |
| 54 | +// executed right after the WATM is instantiated. |
| 55 | +func main() {} |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +type ReverseWrappingTransport struct { |
| 58 | +} |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +func (rwt *ReverseWrappingTransport) Wrap(conn v0net.Conn) (v0net.Conn, error) { |
| 61 | + return &ReverseConn{conn}, conn.SetNonBlock(true) // must set non-block, otherwise will block on read and lose fairness |
| 62 | +} |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +type ReverseConn struct { |
| 65 | + v0net.Conn // embedded Conn |
| 66 | +} |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +func (rc *ReverseConn) Read(b []byte) (n int, err error) { |
| 69 | + n, err = rc.Conn.Read(dupBuf) |
| 70 | + if err != nil { |
| 71 | + return 0, err |
| 72 | + } |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | + if n > len(b) { |
| 75 | + err = io.ErrShortBuffer |
| 76 | + n = len(b) |
| 77 | + } |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | + // reverse all bytes read successfully so far |
| 80 | + for i := 0; i < n; i++ { |
| 81 | + b[i] = dupBuf[n-i-1] |
| 82 | + } |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | + return n, err |
| 85 | +} |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +func (rc *ReverseConn) Write(b []byte) (n int, err error) { |
| 88 | + // reverse the bytes to be written |
| 89 | + for i := 0; i < len(b); i++ { |
| 90 | + dupBuf[i] = b[len(b)-i-1] |
| 91 | + } |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | + return rc.Conn.Write(dupBuf) |
| 94 | +} |
| 95 | +``` |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +Save as `main.go` in your project directory. |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +## Build |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +```bash |
| 102 | +go mod tidy # to download the required packages |
| 103 | +tinygo build -o reverse.wasm -target=wasi main.go |
| 104 | +``` |
| 105 | + |
| 106 | +### Release Build with Optimization |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +With more precise control over the build process, |
| 109 | +you can use the following command to fine-tune |
| 110 | +the behavior in a release-level standard. |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +```bash |
| 113 | +tinygo build -o reverse.wasm -target=wasi -no-debug -scheduler=none -gc=conservative main.go |
| 114 | +``` |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | +Now you should end up with a `reverse.wasm` file in your project directory. It can be load into |
| 117 | +a [WATER runtime](/runtime.html) and used as a transport module. |
