This repository hosts a template for creating an auto splitter in Rust.

First you need to install the Rust compiler: Install Rust

Afterwards install the WebAssembly target. There are two targets that may be of interest. By default we recommend the wasm32-unknown-unknown target.

rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

There's also support for the WebAssembly System Interface (WASI), but WASI itself is still in preview, so your auto splitter may need to be recompiled in the future to keep working. WASI has the benefit that it gives you access to the file system, randomness, clocks, and more. If your auto splitter only needs access to processes, their memory and the timer, the WASI target is not needed.

rustup target add wasm32-wasi

After that you need to install the cargo generate subcommand.

You are now ready to create your auto splitter from the template:

cargo generate LiveSplit/auto-splitter-template

Further instructions are available in the auto splitter's README.
