World imports

The wasi:http/imports world imports all the APIs for HTTP proxies. It is intended to be included in other worlds.

Import interface wasi:random/random@0.2.0

WASI Random is a random data API.

It is intended to be portable at least between Unix-family platforms and Windows.

Functions

get-random-bytes: func

Return len cryptographically-secure random or pseudo-random bytes.

This function must produce data at least as cryptographically secure and fast as an adequately seeded cryptographically-secure pseudo-random number generator (CSPRNG). It must not block, from the perspective of the calling program, under any circumstances, including on the first request and on requests for numbers of bytes. The returned data must always be unpredictable.

This function must always return fresh data. Deterministic environments must omit this function, rather than implementing it with deterministic data.

Params
Return values

get-random-u64: func

Return a cryptographically-secure random or pseudo-random u64 value.

This function returns the same type of data as get-random-bytes, represented as a u64.

Return values

Import interface wasi:io/error@0.2.0

Types

resource error

A resource which represents some error information.

The only method provided by this resource is to-debug-string, which provides some human-readable information about the error.

In the wasi:io package, this resource is returned through the wasi:io/streams/stream-error type.

To provide more specific error information, other interfaces may provide functions to further "downcast" this error into more specific error information. For example, errors returned in streams derived from filesystem types to be described using the filesystem's own error-code type, using the function wasi:filesystem/types/filesystem-error-code, which takes a parameter borrow<error> and returns option<wasi:filesystem/types/error-code>.

The set of functions which can "downcast" an error into a more concrete type is open.

Functions

[method]error.to-debug-string: func

Returns a string that is suitable to assist humans in debugging this error.

WARNING: The returned string should not be consumed mechanically! It may change across platforms, hosts, or other implementation details. Parsing this string is a major platform-compatibility hazard.

Params
Return values

Import interface wasi:io/poll@0.2.0

A poll API intended to let users wait for I/O events on multiple handles at once.

Types

resource pollable

pollable represents a single I/O event which may be ready, or not.

Functions

[method]pollable.ready: func

Return the readiness of a pollable. This function never blocks.

Returns true when the pollable is ready, and false otherwise.

Params
Return values

[method]pollable.block: func

block returns immediately if the pollable is ready, and otherwise blocks until ready.

This function is equivalent to calling poll.poll on a list containing only this pollable.

Params

poll: func

Poll for completion on a set of pollables.

This function takes a list of pollables, which identify I/O sources of interest, and waits until one or more of the events is ready for I/O.

The result list<u32> contains one or more indices of handles in the argument list that is ready for I/O.

If the list contains more elements than can be indexed with a u32 value, this function traps.

A timeout can be implemented by adding a pollable from the wasi-clocks API to the list.

This function does not return a result; polling in itself does not do any I/O so it doesn't fail. If any of the I/O sources identified by the pollables has an error, it is indicated by marking the source as being reaedy for I/O.

Params
Return values

Import interface wasi:io/streams@0.2.0

WASI I/O is an I/O abstraction API which is currently focused on providing stream types.

In the future, the component model is expected to add built-in stream types; when it does, they are expected to subsume this API.

Types

type error

error

#### `type pollable` [`pollable`](#pollable)

#### `variant stream-error`

An error for input-stream and output-stream operations.

Variant Cases

resource input-stream

An input bytestream.

input-streams are non-blocking to the extent practical on underlying platforms. I/O operations always return promptly; if fewer bytes are promptly available than requested, they return the number of bytes promptly available, which could even be zero. To wait for data to be available, use the subscribe function to obtain a pollable which can be polled for using wasi:io/poll.

resource output-stream

An output bytestream.

output-streams are non-blocking to the extent practical on underlying platforms. Except where specified otherwise, I/O operations also always return promptly, after the number of bytes that can be written promptly, which could even be zero. To wait for the stream to be ready to accept data, the subscribe function to obtain a pollable which can be polled for using wasi:io/poll.

Functions

[method]input-stream.read: func

Perform a non-blocking read from the stream.

When the source of a read is binary data, the bytes from the source are returned verbatim. When the source of a read is known to the implementation to be text, bytes containing the UTF-8 encoding of the text are returned.

This function returns a list of bytes containing the read data, when successful. The returned list will contain up to len bytes; it may return fewer than requested, but not more. The list is empty when no bytes are available for reading at this time. The pollable given by subscribe will be ready when more bytes are available.

This function fails with a stream-error when the operation encounters an error, giving last-operation-failed, or when the stream is closed, giving closed.

When the caller gives a len of 0, it represents a request to read 0 bytes. If the stream is still open, this call should succeed and return an empty list, or otherwise fail with closed.

The len parameter is a u64, which could represent a list of u8 which is not possible to allocate in wasm32, or not desirable to allocate as as a return value by the callee. The callee may return a list of bytes less than len in size while more bytes are available for reading.

Params
Return values

[method]input-stream.blocking-read: func

Read bytes from a stream, after blocking until at least one byte can be read. Except for blocking, behavior is identical to read.

Params
Return values

[method]input-stream.skip: func

Skip bytes from a stream. Returns number of bytes skipped.

Behaves identical to read, except instead of returning a list of bytes, returns the number of bytes consumed from the stream.

Params
Return values

[method]input-stream.blocking-skip: func

Skip bytes from a stream, after blocking until at least one byte can be skipped. Except for blocking behavior, identical to skip.

Params
Return values

[method]input-stream.subscribe: func

Create a pollable which will resolve once either the specified stream has bytes available to read or the other end of the stream has been closed. The created pollable is a child resource of the input-stream. Implementations may trap if the input-stream is dropped before all derived pollables created with this function are dropped.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.check-write: func

Check readiness for writing. This function never blocks.

Returns the number of bytes permitted for the next call to write, or an error. Calling write with more bytes than this function has permitted will trap.

When this function returns 0 bytes, the subscribe pollable will become ready when this function will report at least 1 byte, or an error.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.write: func

Perform a write. This function never blocks.

When the destination of a write is binary data, the bytes from contents are written verbatim. When the destination of a write is known to the implementation to be text, the bytes of contents are transcoded from UTF-8 into the encoding of the destination and then written.

Precondition: check-write gave permit of Ok(n) and contents has a length of less than or equal to n. Otherwise, this function will trap.

returns Err(closed) without writing if the stream has closed since the last call to check-write provided a permit.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.blocking-write-and-flush: func

Perform a write of up to 4096 bytes, and then flush the stream. Block until all of these operations are complete, or an error occurs.

This is a convenience wrapper around the use of check-write, subscribe, write, and flush, and is implemented with the following pseudo-code:

let pollable = this.subscribe();
while !contents.is_empty() {
  // Wait for the stream to become writable
  pollable.block();
  let Ok(n) = this.check-write(); // eliding error handling
  let len = min(n, contents.len());
  let (chunk, rest) = contents.split_at(len);
  this.write(chunk  );            // eliding error handling
  contents = rest;
}
this.flush();
// Wait for completion of `flush`
pollable.block();
// Check for any errors that arose during `flush`
let _ = this.check-write();         // eliding error handling
Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.flush: func

Request to flush buffered output. This function never blocks.

This tells the output-stream that the caller intends any buffered output to be flushed. the output which is expected to be flushed is all that has been passed to write prior to this call.

Upon calling this function, the output-stream will not accept any writes (check-write will return ok(0)) until the flush has completed. The subscribe pollable will become ready when the flush has completed and the stream can accept more writes.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.blocking-flush: func

Request to flush buffered output, and block until flush completes and stream is ready for writing again.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.subscribe: func

Create a pollable which will resolve once the output-stream is ready for more writing, or an error has occured. When this pollable is ready, check-write will return ok(n) with n>0, or an error.

If the stream is closed, this pollable is always ready immediately.

The created pollable is a child resource of the output-stream. Implementations may trap if the output-stream is dropped before all derived pollables created with this function are dropped.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.write-zeroes: func

Write zeroes to a stream.

This should be used precisely like write with the exact same preconditions (must use check-write first), but instead of passing a list of bytes, you simply pass the number of zero-bytes that should be written.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.blocking-write-zeroes-and-flush: func

Perform a write of up to 4096 zeroes, and then flush the stream. Block until all of these operations are complete, or an error occurs.

This is a convenience wrapper around the use of check-write, subscribe, write-zeroes, and flush, and is implemented with the following pseudo-code:

let pollable = this.subscribe();
while num_zeroes != 0 {
  // Wait for the stream to become writable
  pollable.block();
  let Ok(n) = this.check-write(); // eliding error handling
  let len = min(n, num_zeroes);
  this.write-zeroes(len);         // eliding error handling
  num_zeroes -= len;
}
this.flush();
// Wait for completion of `flush`
pollable.block();
// Check for any errors that arose during `flush`
let _ = this.check-write();         // eliding error handling
Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.splice: func

Read from one stream and write to another.

The behavior of splice is equivelant to:

  1. calling check-write on the output-stream
  2. calling read on the input-stream with the smaller of the check-write permitted length and the len provided to splice
  3. calling write on the output-stream with that read data.

Any error reported by the call to check-write, read, or write ends the splice and reports that error.

This function returns the number of bytes transferred; it may be less than len.

Params
Return values

[method]output-stream.blocking-splice: func

Read from one stream and write to another, with blocking.

This is similar to splice, except that it blocks until the output-stream is ready for writing, and the input-stream is ready for reading, before performing the splice.

WASI Monotonic Clock is a clock API intended to let users measure elapsed time.

It is intended to be portable at least between Unix-family platforms and Windows.

A monotonic clock is a clock which has an unspecified initial value, and successive reads of the clock will produce non-decreasing values.

It is intended for measuring elapsed time.

Types

Defines the case payload type for TLS-alert-received above:

Record Fields

record field-size-payload

Defines the case payload type for HTTP-response-{header,trailer}-size above:

Record Fields

variant error-code

These cases are inspired by the IANA HTTP Proxy Error Types: https://www.iana.org/assignments/http-proxy-status/http-proxy-status.xhtml#table-http-proxy-error-types

Variant Cases

variant header-error

This type enumerates the different kinds of errors that may occur when setting or appending to a fields resource.

Variant Cases

type field-key

string

Field keys are always strings.

type field-value

field-value

Field values should always be ASCII strings. However, in reality, HTTP implementations often have to interpret malformed values, so they are provided as a list of bytes.

resource fields

This following block defines the fields resource which corresponds to HTTP standard Fields. Fields are a common representation used for both Headers and Trailers.

A fields may be mutable or immutable. A fields created using the constructor, from-list, or clone will be mutable, but a fields resource given by other means (including, but not limited to, incoming-request.headers, outgoing-request.headers) might be be immutable. In an immutable fields, the set, append, and delete operations will fail with header-error.immutable.

type headers

fields

Headers is an alias for Fields.

type trailers

fields

Trailers is an alias for Fields.

resource incoming-request

Represents an incoming HTTP Request.

resource outgoing-request

Represents an outgoing HTTP Request.

resource request-options

Parameters for making an HTTP Request. Each of these parameters is currently an optional timeout applicable to the transport layer of the HTTP protocol.

These timeouts are separate from any the user may use to bound a blocking call to wasi:io/poll.poll.

resource response-outparam

Represents the ability to send an HTTP Response.

This resource is used by the wasi:http/incoming-handler interface to allow a Response to be sent corresponding to the Request provided as the other argument to incoming-handler.handle.

type status-code

u16

This type corresponds to the HTTP standard Status Code.

resource incoming-response

Represents an incoming HTTP Response.

resource incoming-body

Represents an incoming HTTP Request or Response's Body.

A body has both its contents - a stream of bytes - and a (possibly empty) set of trailers, indicating that the full contents of the body have been received. This resource represents the contents as an input-stream and the delivery of trailers as a future-trailers, and ensures that the user of this interface may only be consuming either the body contents or waiting on trailers at any given time.

resource future-trailers

Represents a future which may eventaully return trailers, or an error.

In the case that the incoming HTTP Request or Response did not have any trailers, this future will resolve to the empty set of trailers once the complete Request or Response body has been received.

resource outgoing-response

Represents an outgoing HTTP Response.

resource outgoing-body

Represents an outgoing HTTP Request or Response's Body.

A body has both its contents - a stream of bytes - and a (possibly empty) set of trailers, inducating the full contents of the body have been sent. This resource represents the contents as an output-stream child resource, and the completion of the body (with optional trailers) with a static function that consumes the outgoing-body resource, and ensures that the user of this interface may not write to the body contents after the body has been finished.

If the user code drops this resource, as opposed to calling the static method finish, the implementation should treat the body as incomplete, and that an error has occured. The implementation should propogate this error to the HTTP protocol by whatever means it has available, including: corrupting the body on the wire, aborting the associated Request, or sending a late status code for the Response.

resource future-incoming-response

Represents a future which may eventaully return an incoming HTTP Response, or an error.

This resource is returned by the wasi:http/outgoing-handler interface to provide the HTTP Response corresponding to the sent Request.

Functions

http-error-code: func

Attempts to extract a http-related error from the wasi:io error provided.

Stream operations which return wasi:io/stream/stream-error::last-operation-failed have a payload of type wasi:io/error/error with more information about the operation that failed. This payload can be passed through to this function to see if there's http-related information about the error to return.

Note that this function is fallible because not all io-errors are http-related errors.

Params
Return values

[static]response-outparam.set: func

Set the value of the response-outparam to either send a response, or indicate an error.

This method consumes the response-outparam to ensure that it is called at most once. If it is never called, the implementation will respond with an error.

The user may provide an error to response to allow the implementation determine how to respond with an HTTP error response.

Params

[method]incoming-response.status: func

Returns the status code from the incoming response.

Params
Return values

[method]incoming-response.headers: func

Returns the headers from the incoming response.

This headers resource is a child: it must be dropped before the parent incoming-response is dropped.

Params
Return values

[method]incoming-response.consume: func

Returns the incoming body. May be called at most once. Returns error if called additional times.

Params
Return values

[method]incoming-body.stream: func

Returns the contents of the body, as a stream of bytes.

Returns success on first call: the stream representing the contents can be retrieved at most once. Subsequent calls will return error.

The returned input-stream resource is a child: it must be dropped before the parent incoming-body is dropped, or consumed by incoming-body.finish.

This invariant ensures that the implementation can determine whether the user is consuming the contents of the body, waiting on the future-trailers to be ready, or neither. This allows for network backpressure is to be applied when the user is consuming the body, and for that backpressure to not inhibit delivery of the trailers if the user does not read the entire body.

Params
Return values

[static]incoming-body.finish: func

Takes ownership of incoming-body, and returns a future-trailers. This function will trap if the input-stream child is still alive.

Params
Return values

[method]future-trailers.subscribe: func

Returns a pollable which becomes ready when either the trailers have been received, or an error has occured. When this pollable is ready, the get method will return some.

Params
Return values

[method]future-trailers.get: func

Returns the contents of the trailers, or an error which occured, once the future is ready.

The outer option represents future readiness. Users can wait on this option to become some using the subscribe method.

The outer result is used to retrieve the trailers or error at most once. It will be success on the first call in which the outer option is some, and error on subsequent calls.

The inner result represents that either the HTTP Request or Response body, as well as any trailers, were received successfully, or that an error occured receiving them. The optional trailers indicates whether or not trailers were present in the body.

When some trailers are returned by this method, the trailers resource is immutable, and a child. Use of the set, append, or delete methods will return an error, and the resource must be dropped before the parent future-trailers is dropped.

Params
Return values

[constructor]outgoing-response: func

Params
Return values

[method]outgoing-response.headers: func

Get the headers associated with the Request.

The returned headers resource is immutable: set, append, and delete operations will fail with header-error.immutable.

Params
Return values

[method]outgoing-response.body: func

Returns the resource corresponding to the outgoing Body for this Response.

Returns success on the first call: the outgoing-body resource for this outgoing-response can be retrieved at most once. Subsequent calls will return error.

Params
Return values

[method]outgoing-body.write: func

Returns a stream for writing the body contents.

The returned output-stream is a child resource: it must be dropped before the parent outgoing-body resource is dropped (or finished), otherwise the outgoing-body drop or finish will trap.

Returns success on the first call: the output-stream resource for this outgoing-body may be retrieved at most once. Subsequent calls will return error.

Params
Return values

[static]outgoing-body.finish: func

Finalize an outgoing body, optionally providing trailers. This must be called to signal that the response is complete. If the outgoing-body is dropped without calling outgoing-body.finalize, the implementation should treat the body as corrupted.

Fails if the body's outgoing-request or outgoing-response was constructed with a Content-Length header, and the contents written to the body (via write) does not match the value given in the Content-Length.

Params
Return values

[method]future-incoming-response.subscribe: func

Returns the incoming HTTP Response, or an error, once one is ready.

The outer option represents future readiness. Users can wait on this option to become some using the subscribe method.

The outer result is used to retrieve the response or error at most once. It will be success on the first call in which the outer option is some, and error on subsequent calls.

The inner result represents that either the incoming HTTP Response status and headers have recieved successfully, or that an error occured. Errors may also occur while consuming the response body, but those will be reported by the incoming-body and its output-stream child.

Import interface wasi:http/outgoing-handler@0.2.0

This interface defines a handler of outgoing HTTP Requests. It should be imported by components which wish to make HTTP Requests.

Types

type outgoing-request

outgoing-request

#### `type request-options` [`request-options`](#request_options)

#### `type future-incoming-response` [`future-incoming-response`](#future_incoming_response)

Functions

handle: func

This function is invoked with an outgoing HTTP Request, and it returns a resource future-incoming-response which represents an HTTP Response which may arrive in the future.

The options argument accepts optional parameters for the HTTP protocol's transport layer.

This function may return an error if the outgoing-request is invalid or not allowed to be made. Otherwise, protocol errors are reported through the future-incoming-response.

Import interface wasi:clocks/wall-clock@0.2.0

WASI Wall Clock is a clock API intended to let users query the current time. The name "wall" makes an analogy to a "clock on the wall", which is not necessarily monotonic as it may be reset.

It is intended to be portable at least between Unix-family platforms and Windows.

A wall clock is a clock which measures the date and time according to some external reference.

External references may be reset, so this clock is not necessarily monotonic, making it unsuitable for measuring elapsed time.

It is intended for reporting the current date and time for humans.

Types

record datetime

A time and date in seconds plus nanoseconds.

Record Fields

Functions

now: func

Read the current value of the clock.

This clock is not monotonic, therefore calling this function repeatedly will not necessarily produce a sequence of non-decreasing values.

The returned timestamps represent the number of seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, also known as POSIX's Seconds Since the Epoch, also known as Unix Time.

The nanoseconds field of the output is always less than 1000000000.

Return values

resolution: func

Query the resolution of the clock.

The nanoseconds field of the output is always less than 1000000000.
