Publish WASM as NPM/JSR package?

Currently, dax has a very slim single Rust file here that exposes a WASM interface for the deno_task_shell parsing logic which it then compiles with deno run -A https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/main.ts --sync --out ./src/lib
The problem is that having this code inlined into dax leads to two issues:
- If a new version of
deno_task_shellis released, you can't use it from JS untildaxis updated - If you want to build an alternative to dax instead of waiting for it to be updated, you have to copy-paste the rust->wasm compilation system into your own project
It feels like probably it would be better to just inline the WASM compilation step into this project and then release deno_task_shell on NPM/JSR. That means that
- You can update
deno_task_shellwithout updatingdaxby just using a patch easily - You can easily use the
Deno.Commandinterface yourself directly ifdaxdoesn't quite fit your needs
I'm not sure I'd use this in Dax at the moment. Dax uses multiple rust dependencies and it's a smaller footprint to have them all compiled in a single Wasm file.
