wasm-filter

A simple example that shows how to pass image data to wasm and back to js and render it in a canvas.

build

You need

• LLVM/clang compiled with wasm support
• binaryen

If you have the tools compiled and ready you can compile the filter.c with

$ clang filter.c -o filter.s -S -Os --std=c11 -Os --target=wasm32
$ s2wasm filter.s -o filter.wast
$ wasm-as filter.wast

The -o parameter defines the output. -S tells clang to only run preprocessing and compilation steps but no linking. -Os is the optimization flag (makes the generated wasm smaller) and --std=c11 defines the C standard used. s2wasm transforms LLVM output to WebAssembly's wast format, which is turned into the binary wasm format with wasm-as.

run

Just run a local webserver, e.g.

$ npm install -g pushstate-server
$ pushstate-server .

and open filter.html in one of the browsers that support wasm.
