The docs on how to use existing javascript web systems within a rust -> wasm
flow using wasm-bindgen are pretty straight-forward. In short:
// cargo.toml
[dependencies.web-sys]
version = "0.3.4"
features = [
'AudioContext',
'OscillatorNode'
]
// lib.rs
#[wasm_bindgen]
impl FmOsc {
#[wasm_bindgen(constructor)]
pub fn new() -> Result<FmOsc, JsValue> {
let ctx = web_sys::AudioContext::new()?;
let primary = ctx.create_oscillator()?;
let fm_osc = ctx.create_oscillator()?;

While this approach works for most web systems, it is not so simple for ones which require you to extend a class. In this case I'm trying to use the AudioWorkletProccessor from wasm-bindgen
In standard usage, you are supposed to extend the AudioWorkletProcessor
class, then register it. MDN Example
How can I approach this problem? First I need to extend AudioWorkletProcessor
in Rust (which doesn't do normal classes and inheritance), overriding its process()
function. Then I need to make sure registerProcessor()
is injected into my rust space.
EDIT: WASM docs on extends
You will have to do that on the JavaScript side. wasm-bindgen
does not support extending imported classes and re-exporting them to JavaScript; however, they do want to support it eventually and there is an issue to track it, and a related RFC.
