WASI example (experimental)

On this page

This example runs a small data summary and Fibonacci calculation outside the browser. WASI support is experimental; see WASI deployment for setup.

Build and run

From this example's directory:

matchbox --target wasi service.bxs
wasmtime service.wasm

The program prints a dataset summary, Fibonacci terms and a completion message.

Containers

The included Dockerfile packages service.wasm in a scratch image. Running it requires a WASI-capable container runtime, not an ordinary Linux container runtime.

Use --target js for browser applications, or WASI HTTP for an HTTP component.
