Wasm OCIアーティファクトレイアウト

Wasm OCI Artifact layout

This is a guide for an OCI image format for Wasm that can be used across projects in order to enable consistency for users, tooling and registries. This OCI artifact has a specific Wasm config.mediaType of application/vnd.wasm.config.v0+json to designate it as an OCI artifact. It contains a representation of Wasm configuration that can be broadly be used across projects (various Wasm runtimes and container runtimes). It includes the ability to include wasm modules or components in the artifact.

It is designed to be compliant with the artifact guidance of the OCI image spec in order to be compatible with the widest range of registries today.

Goals

  • Single OCI compliant artifact type that can be used across container runtimes and Wasm runtime projects (wasmcloud, spin, containerd, podman, etc)
  • Single layer type that is supported where everything is a component, which makes it so all the tools don’t need to know about all possible layer types (eg. static files, Wasm runtime config files, etc.).
  • Should be able to support an “exploded” representation of the component where each component is a layer and can be combined (“composed”) by either Wasm runtime or container runtime
  • Have fall back if registries don’t support artifacts (via config.media type)

Non Goals

  • Support for use in browsers. As use cases are presented we may reconsider.

Manifest format

The Wasm config.mediaType configuration allows for easy identification of a Wasm artifact in a registry. See the config.mediaType section below for more details on the format of the config file.

A single layer mediaType of application/wasm was chosen since a component can be both a library and an executable and so we don’t want to need to indicate a difference between components. In addition, a component can always be recomposed into a another type. Although out of scope this does allow for potential browser support in future since browser only supports application/wasm.

        // However, this is explicitly called out as we expect to be storing "exploded" components in order to reuse/share layers. 
        // When exploded components are stored as layers, they MUST use content hash importing, but this is not officially part of this spec yet. 
        // If a consumer sees more than a single layer for this version of the spec, they should reject it

    ]
}

Config.mediaType (application/vnd.wasm.config.v0+json)

The configuration provides the ability to quickly identify imports, exports or worlds that are used by the component. By specifying imports and exports, it ensures a runtime can validate that the component has all of the layers required to satisfy the exports. It also ensures that a Wasm runtime can reject running the a component if it can not satisfy the imports.

        "target": "wasi:http/proxy@0.2.0",
    },
    // In the future, we could add an optional "module" section that is only present when the OS value is wasip1. This could carry additional config data or other options. 
    // However, we are not adding this to start but would be more than willing to add it in as concrete use cases emerge. For components, config and other data will be
    // handled via composition using tools like wasi-virt
}

FAQ

If there is a single layer type how will static files or runtime configuration files be supplied?
