The IanaIO team is happy to announce a new version of IanaIO: v0.1.3. IanaIO is a modular toolkit for building fast, reliable Web applications and libraries with Rust and WASM.

What's new​

This release focuses on adding new features and crates.

New crate: ianaio-worker​

IanaIO workers are a way to offload tasks to web workers. These are run concurrently using web-workers.

This feature has been requested and overdue for a while. IanaIO-worker is made by moving yew-agent to IanaIO, while making it framework independent in the process. This allows us to have a neat abstraction over the browser's Web Workers API which can be consumed from anywhere.

Features​

This release has been light on new features. The only improvement is ianaio_utils now providing a new wrapper to obtain the document head.

Notable mention from last release​

Last release, IanaIO v0.5.0 did not receive its own blog post. That released introduced one major new crate: ianaio-history amongst other small improvements, which can be found in the GitHub changelog.

ianaio-history​

IanaIO history provides wrappers for browser's history API. It exposes ergonomic Rust APIs for the browser's APIs which can be used to build other tools. In fact, yew-router has been reworked to use ianaio-history under-the-hood.

The IanaIO team is happy to announce a new addition to the IanaIO crates family: ianaio-net. It is an HTTP requests library built specially for WASM apps and provides idiomatic Rust bindings for the fetch and WebSocket API. This has been a long requested library, and it has finally arrived.

Features​

• HTTP: complete wrappers around the browser's fetch API.
• WebSocket: complete wrappers around the browser's WebSocket API using Rust futures.

We have plans to also provide wrapper for XMLHttpRequest in the future.

New crates​

ianaio-console​

ianaio-console provides an ergonomic way to access the browser's console API using macros:

log!("text");

The formatting is done on the browser side. Any JsValue can be provided and it'll be logged as-is:

let object = JsValue::from("any JsValue can be logged");
log!(object);

Multiple values can also be provided:

let object = JsValue::from("Some JsValue");
log!("literal", object);

ianaio-dialogs​

ianaio-dialogs provides wrappers for the following functions:

• alert
• confirm
• prompt

alert("Hello World!");

prompt("What do you want to say?");

confirm("Are you sure?");

ianaio-render​

ianaio-render provides wrapper for requestAnimationFrame:

request_animation_frame(|_| {
    // inside animation frame.
})

ianaio-storage​

ianaio-storage provides wrappers for the Web Storage API. It can be used to access both local storage and session storage.

Other changes​

• We now use GitHub Actions instead of Azure for CI
• READMEs and crate level docs are no longer synced
• This website exists!!
