@webassemblyjs/wast-printer
Advanced tools
The @webassemblyjs/wast-printer package is a tool for converting WebAssembly binary format (Wasm) into WebAssembly Text format (WAT), also known as WAST. This is particularly useful for debugging, optimization, and learning purposes, as WAT is a human-readable representation of WebAssembly code.
Printing Wasm to WAT
This feature allows you to parse a WAST string to create an abstract syntax tree (AST) and then print that AST back into a WAST string. It's useful for generating human-readable WAT/WAST from WebAssembly binaries or ASTs.
"const { parse } = require('@webassemblyjs/wast-parser');\nconst { print } = require('@webassemblyjs/wast-printer');\nconst wast = '(module)';\nconst ast = parse(wast);\nconst output = print(ast);\nconsole.log(output);"
The 'wabt' package is a set of tools built around the WebAssembly Binary Toolkit. It includes functionality to convert Wasm binaries to WAT and vice versa, similar to what @webassemblyjs/wast-printer offers. However, 'wabt' provides a broader set of utilities for WebAssembly manipulation, including validation and execution of Wasm code.
Binaryen is a compiler and toolchain infrastructure library for WebAssembly, written in C++. It has bindings for Node.js ('binaryen' npm package), allowing similar functionalities to @webassemblyjs/wast-printer, such as converting between Wasm and WAT. In addition to printing and parsing, Binaryen focuses on optimization, providing tools to generate and optimize WebAssembly code programmatically.
WebAssembly text format printer
npm install @webassemblyjs/wast-printer
import { print } from "@webassemblyjs/wast-printer"
console.log(print(ast));
