Embed Deno in golang OR qjs

[fayakun-it-consulting]

I have found this project which seems to embed Deno in a way to no need to install it externally. Would this make sense?

Instead of needing 2 executables smallweb & Deno this will become really a single binary.

This will probably make #125 possible what are you guys thinking.

I don't know for sure what is best Deno or this new little gem I just found out : https://github.com/fastschema/qjs

It seems like this goja alternative is pretty solid when it comes to WASM features.

I am wondering ... what is your perspective?

This package does not bundles deno. As you can see in the readme, you need to provide a path to the executable.

func main() {
  ctx, err := deno.NewDeno("/path/to/deno-exe/deno", "a.js")
  if err != nil {
     fmt.Printf("%v\n", err)
     return
  }
  defer ctx.Quit()
  // ...
}

These embedded js engines are neat, but they do not support advanced features like npm imports or url imports. These features are a core part of my smallweb usages

How about we ask them to implement what is missing for your needs?

How about really making smallweb a one binary solution including Deno in its binary with: https://github.com/amenzhinsky/go-memexec
