* Compile a wasm example application
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With our system setup let's compile a hello world in rust to ~.wasm~ so we can then run it with our container engine.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#+begin_src tmate :socket /tmp/james.tmate.tmate
|
||||||
|
# Create new rust project
|
||||||
|
rm -rf hello_wasm && cargo new hello_wasm --bin && cd hello_wasm
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Customise the main function
|
||||||
|
sed -i 's/world/openshift meetup/g' src/main.rs
|
||||||
|
cat src/main.rs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Ensure we have rust wasm tooling installed
|
||||||
|
rustup target add wasm32-wasi
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Compile to the wasm target
|
||||||
|
cargo build --target wasm32-wasi
|
||||||
|
#+end_src
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We can run it directly with our ~wasmedge~ runtime to verify everything worked.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#+NAME: Run wasm binary directly
|
||||||
|
#+begin_src tmate :socket /tmp/james.tmate.tmate
|
||||||
|
wasmedge target/wasm32-wasi/debug/hello_wasm.wasm
|
||||||
|
#+end_src
|
||||||

* Build a wasm container
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Awesome, we have a compiled ~.wasm~ portable binary. Lets build this into an OCI compliant image so that our container engine can run it like a traditional container.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#+NAME: Build wasm container
|
||||||
|
#+begin_src tmate :socket /tmp/james.tmate.tmate
|
||||||
|
# Review contents of included containerfile
|
||||||
|
cd ../ && cat Containerfile
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Build the container with buildah
|
||||||
|
buildah build --annotation "module.wasm.image/variant=compat" -t mywasm-image .
|
||||||
|
#+end_src
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The interesting thing about wasm container images is just how small they can potentially be as the image doesn't contain any operating system or libraries, literally just our portable ~.wasm~ file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If we take a look at the image we just built it's only a couple of megabytes!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#+NAME: Check image size
|
||||||
|
#+begin_src tmate :socket /tmp/james.tmate.tmate
|
||||||
|
podman images | grep wasm
|
||||||
|
#+end_src
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Running a wasm container
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now that we have a container image built let's run it with Podman.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that we need to ensure Podman is pointing at our customised container runtime that has WASM support, this can be done via either configuration file or cli parameter.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#+NAME: Run container image
|
||||||
|
#+begin_src tmate
|
||||||
|
podman --runtime /usr/local/bin/crun run -t --rm localhost/mywasm-image:latest
|
||||||
|
#+end_src

||||||
