How to Debug WASI Pipelines with ITK-Wasm

• ITK-Wasm

  5 199 9.8 Python

  High performance spatial analysis in a web browser and across programming languages and hardware architectures

  

  Effective debugging results in effective programming; itk-wasm makes effective debugging of WebAssembly possible. In this tutorial, adapted from the itk-wasm documentation, we walk through how to debug a C++ data processing pipeline with the mature, native binary debugging tools that are comfortable for developers. This is a fully featured way to ensure the base correctness of a processing pipeline. Next, we will walk through an interactive debugging experience for WASI WebAssembly. With itk-wasm, we can debug the same source code in either context with an interactive debugger. We also have a convenvient way to pass data from our local filesystem into a WebAssembly (Wasm) processing pipeline.

• wasmtime

  179 15,507 9.9 Rust

  A lightweight WebAssembly runtime that is fast, secure, and standards-compliant

  

  A full debugging session is also possible after LLDB >= 13 and Wasmtime are installed.

  WASI libc implementation for WebAssembly

  WASI-enabled WebAssembly C/C++ toolchain

  

  The most direct way to debug WebAssembly is through the WebAssembly System Interface (WASI). In itk-wasm, we can build to WASI with the WASI SDK by specifying the itkwasm/wasi toolchain image. A backtrace can quickly be obtained with the itk-wasm CLI. Or, a fully fledged debugger session can be started with LLDB.

• lldb-mi

  12 167 2.4 C++

  LLDB's machine interface driver

  

  The CMake-based, itk-wasm build system tooling enables the same C++ build system configuration and code to be reused when building a native system binary or a WebAssembly binary. As a result, native binary debugging tools, such as GDB, LLDB, or the Visual Studio debugger can be utilized.
