Wasm::Hook

Automatically load WebAssembly modules without a Perl wrapper

SYNOPSIS

use Wasm::Hook;
use Foo::Bar;  # will load Foo/Bar.wasm or Foo/Bar.wat if no Foo/Bar.pm is found
no Wasm::Hook; # turns off automatic wasm / wat loading

DESCRIPTION

NOTE: This distribution has been merged into Wasm. The repository remains on GitHub out of historical interest. Please find the latest version of this module either on metacpan or GitHub at:

• https://metacpan.org/pod/Wasm
• https://github.com/perlwasm/Wasm

This module installs an @INC hook that automatically loads WebAssembly (Wasm) files so that they can be used like a Perl module, without:

The functions inside the WebAssembly module are exportable via the Exporter module. @EXPORT_OK is used, so you will need to explicitly export functions.

• Having to write a boilerplate .pm file that loads the WebAssembly
• The caller needing to even know or care that the module is implemented in something other than Perl.

This module will only load a WebAssembly module if there is now Perl Module (.pm file) with the appropriate name.
