deno_plugin_example

This is an example repository of basic rust plugin for Deno

Build

Use latest rustc and deno.

cargo build will make files below:

• target/debug/libdeno_plugin_example.dylib (mac)
• target/debug/libdeno_plugin_example.so (linux)
• target/debug/deno_plugin_example.dll (win)

Those dynamic linc libraries are the artifact of plugin.

Use plugin

To use built plugin on deno, you need to load plugin dynamically on runtime. See main.ts for detail.

// The path for built plugin
const pluginPath = "./target/debug/...."
// Load plugin dynamically
const plugin = Deno.openPlugin(pluginPath);
// Get ts-side operation functions from plugin
const { testSync, testAsync } = plugin.ops;

// Dispatch synchronous operation. Arguments and response are `Uint8Array`
const syncResp: Uint8Array = testSync.dispatch(new Uint8Array([0,1,2,3]));
const asyncResp = await new Promise<Uint8Array>(resolve => {
  // Register handler for async oeration
  testAsync.setAsyncHandler((resp: Uint8Array) => {
    // do stuff
    resolve(resp);
  })
  // Dispatch async operation with argument
  testAsync.dispatch(new Uint8Array([0,1,2,3]))
});
