Compiles your Go source code into a WebAssembly (.wasm) binary.
Examples:
- Compile all Go files in the current directory:
wasmate build
- Compile a specific file or directory:
wasmate build main.go
wasmate build ./path/to/my/project
- Compile to a specific output:
wasmate build --output main.wasm
wasmate build -o main.wasm
wasmate build ./path/to/my/project -o main.wasm
You may add whichever flags you would like to use and use them within the same command, as long as you separate them with spaces.
Copies the required wasm_exec.js file from your Go installation. This file is essential for running WebAssembly in a web browser.
Example:
- Copy the file to your current directory:
wasmate js
Serves your HTML and WebAssembly files over a local web server, making it easy to test your application.
Examples:
- Start the server on the default port (8080):
wasmate run
- Specify a different port:
wasmate run --port 8000
wasmate run -p 8000
- Open localhost link in your browser"
wasmate run --open
wasmate run -o
You may add whichever flags you would like to use and use them within the same command, as long as you separate them with spaces.
