LinuxCNC WASM SDK

This SDK exposes browser/Node JavaScript wrappers for standalone WASM modules built from vendored LinuxCNC source.

Boundary

The SDK is a host-boundary layer only. It may:

• load generated Emscripten modules;
• allocate and free C strings;
• write text files into the Emscripten filesystem;
• call exported C ABI functions;
• return LinuxCNC-produced text output to JavaScript callers.

The SDK must not implement G-code interpretation, canonical motion behavior, tool semantics, parameter semantics, kinematics, or planner behavior. Those behaviors must continue to come from vendored LinuxCNC source through the C ABI.

Entrypoints

Use src/index.js for stable imports:

import {
  createLinuxCncIniSdk,
  createLinuxCncInterpSdk,
} from "./src/index.js";

createLinuxCncIniSdk() wraps the INI parser module built from vendored LinuxCNC inifile.cc and exposes getString() plus getBool(). Boolean conversion is performed by vendored LinuxCNC iniFindBool().

createLinuxCncInterpSdk() wraps the interpreter-core module built from vendored LinuxCNC RS274NGC sources and exposes:

• runProgram(programText)
• runProgramWithIni(programText, iniPath)
• runFile(path)
• runFileWithIni(path, iniPath)
• runFiveAxisRemapFile(path, iniPath)
• restoreParameters(path)
• saveParameters(path, values)
• loadToolTable(path, options)
• saveToolTable(path)
• writeTextFile(path, text)
• readTextFile(path)

loadToolTable() accepts { randomToolChanger: true } to select the LinuxCNC random-toolchanger branch before calling vendored tooldata_load(). The SDK only forwards that runtime boundary flag.

runFiveAxisRemapFile() is a narrow host boundary for vendored LinuxCNC sample-machine remap validation. Callers provide INI/remap/demo files in the WASM filesystem; the C ABI runs vendored LinuxCNC REMAP, O-word, file execution, and HAL adapter paths.
