wasmer-php

A complete and mature WebAssembly runtime for PHP based on Wasmer.

Features

• Easy to use: The wasmer API mimics the standard WebAssembly C API,
• Fast: wasmer executes the WebAssembly modules as fast as possible, close to native speed,
• Safe: All calls to WebAssembly will be fast, but more importantly, completely safe and sandboxed.

Install

To install the library, follow the classical:

git clone https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer-php
cd wasmer-php/ext
phpize
./configure --enable-wasmer
make
make test
make install

Note: Wasmer doesn't work on Windows yet.

Examples

Procedural API

…

Object-oriented API

 Hello World!'.PHP_EOL;

    return null;
}

$functype = Wasm\Functype::new(new Wasm\Vec\ValType(), new Wasm\Vec\ValType());
$func = Wasm\Module\Func::new($store, $functype, 'hello_callback');

$extern = $func->asExtern();
$externs = new Wasm\Vec\Extern([$extern->inner()]);
$instance = Wasm\Module\Instance::new($store, $module, $externs);

$exports = $instance->exports();
$run = $exports[0]->asFunc();

$args = new Wasm\Vec\Val();
$results = $run($args);

This example covers the most basic Wasm use case: we take a Wasm module (in its text representation form), create an instance from it, get an exported function and run it.
