How to use wasm-bindgen-test in a local path?

[notdanilo]

Summary

I am trying to directly use the wasm-bindgen-test crate because I want to make some changes in it.

[target.'cfg(target_arch = "wasm32")'.dev-dependencies]
wasm-bindgen-test = { path = "crates/wasm-bindgen/crates/test" }

But I am getting this error when I build it:

notdanilo@veritas:~/dev/notdanilo/cross-test$ wasm-pack test
Error: Error during execution of `cargo metadata`: error: failed to select a version for `wasm-bindgen-shared`.
    ... required by package `wasm-bindgen-macro-support v0.2.69`

versions that meet the requirements `=0.2.69` are: 0.2.69

the package `wasm-bindgen-shared` links to the native library `wasm_bindgen`, but it conflicts with a previous package which links to `wasm_bindgen` as well:

Thanks for the report! I'd recommend using Cargo's [patch] feature if you'd like to use a different version of wasm-bindgen crates. You may need to [patch] more than just one crate, however, since there's a family of crates with wasm-bindgen.

[notdanilo]

Thanks for the quick response. Would the patching still be necessary to build the crate locally even if I don't have any changes applied to it? I am trying to build a clean repo clone.

[notdanilo]

Quick update:

1. cargo clean seemed to fix it.
2. Running wasm-pack test --chrome with the stable toolchain fails because of the use of #![feature] so I switched to nightly.
3. Now I am getting this error:

[alexcrichton]

It looks like [patch] may not have patched everything? That looks like there's still two versions of the wasm-bindgen crate itself being linked in. Perhaps a missing patch entry for wasm-bindgen itself?

[notdanilo]

@alexcrichton the deal is I am not patching anything yet. Shouldn't crates/test be buildable with a clean repo?

[alexcrichton]

Unfortunately using wasm-pack in this repo itself will not work due to how wasm-pack works.

[notdanilo]

@alexcrichton what would be the suggested way to use a modified version of wasm-bindgen-test?

In case you are curious why I need it so much:

I am creating a cross-test crate that re-exports platform specific test frameworks because it is really annoying to create target cfgs on every project.

To make wasm-bindgen-test re-exportable, it seems that I need to rework some type paths. I might create a PR for it if the solution doesn't get too hacky.

[alexcrichton]

If you're editing in-tree you can use cargo test --target wasm32-unknown-unknown and it should work

[notdanilo]

@alexcrichton that's not exactly what I am looking for. I want to be able to use a modified version of wasm-bindgen-test as a dependency just like how an end-user would use it in the project Cargo.toml and then run the tests with wasm-pack test.

I can't find anything in the docs explaining how to do that.

[alexcrichton]

It's unfortunately not really well documented, but you'll need to compile a local version of wasm-bindgen-test (sibling to the wasm-bindgen binary) and then set that as the test runner for the wasm target through Cargo to execute tests. Basically you need to do what wasm-pack does, except manually to specify your own version of the binary.

[brainstorm]

I'm also struggling to just include wasm-bindgen itself on my project, after cloning it locally and adding it via path on my Cargo.toml. I would like to extend RefFromWasmAbi some traits for more complex types, see this Rust Discord thread for more context and its followup:

(...)
# WASM
getrandom = { version = "0.2", features = ["js"] }
#wasm-bindgen = { version = "0.2", features = ["enable-interning"] }
wasm-bindgen = { path = "../wasm-bindgen" }
(...)

I'm getting:

crypt4gh-rust % cargo build --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
error: failed to select a version for `wasm-bindgen-shared`.
    ... required by package `wasm-bindgen-macro-support v0.2.62`

    ... which satisfies dependency `getrandom = "^0.2"` (locked to 0.2.11) of package `crypt4gh v0.4.1 (/Users/rvalls/dev/umccr/crypt4gh-rust)`
versions that meet the requirements `=0.2.62` are: 0.2.62

the package `wasm-bindgen-shared` links to the native library `wasm_bindgen`, but it conflicts with a previous package which links to `wasm_bindgen` as well:
package `wasm-bindgen-shared v0.2.89 (/Users/rvalls/dev/umccr/wasm-bindgen/crates/shared)`
    ... which satisfies path dependency `wasm-bindgen-shared` (locked to 0.2.89) of package `wasm-bindgen-macro-support v0.2.89 (/Users/rvalls/dev/umccr/wasm-bindgen/crates/macro-support)`
    ... which satisfies path dependency `wasm-bindgen-macro-support` (locked to 0.2.89) of package `wasm-bindgen-macro v0.2.89 (/Users/rvalls/dev/umccr/wasm-bindgen/crates/macro)`

    ... which satisfies path dependency `wasm-bindgen` (locked to 0.2.89) of package `crypt4gh v0.4.1 (/Users/rvalls/dev/umccr/crypt4gh-rust)`
Only one package in the dependency graph may specify the same links value. This helps ensure that only one copy of a native library is linked in the final binary. Try to adjust your dependencies so that only one package uses the links ='wasm-bindgen-shared' value. For more information, see https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/resolver.html#links.

And when I try to trace the crate having a differing getrandom crate, I'm getting misleading output in cargo tree from the workspace level since it just outputs a very small subset of dependencies and not the whole tree for all the sub-crates:

I guess that the cargo [patch] strategy described above doesn't help me here as I want to modify/contribute to wasm-bindgen, so I need a local path?

What am I doing wrong here and how can I fix that (getrandom?) dependency error? :-S
