Follow-up to #21: the web app (web.rustgis.app) gets the GeoLibre toolboxes too. Its 1,000+ tools run in the browser through geolibre-rust's WASI runner, the geolibre-wasm package.

For the user

  • Load once: in the web app's Geoprocessing pane, Load GeoLibre tools loads the runner from jsDelivr: about 25 MB the first time, then from the browser's cache. The tools appear under the same GeoLibre toolboxes as on the desktop. The app remembers this and loads them again on the next visit.
  • Runs: forms, staging and outputs are the same as on the desktop. Tools run in an in-memory /work folder in the page, so nothing is uploaded. A run shows Running… and finishes asynchronously. The result is added with undo and history, as with gp.run.
  • Limits: tools that read files by path (LiDAR files, for instance) still need the desktop app. The runner pins geolibre-wasm@1.6.0, so the tool forms and the runner always come from the same release.

How

  • rustgis-geolibre now builds for wasm32. A run is split into three steps:

    • prepare(): stage the inputs as bytes, with arguments relative to a working folder.
    • a runner: natively the geolibre program (native.rs), in the browser the WASI runner.
    • finish(): turn the output files and printed lines into layers.

    The runner and installer are native only. set_manifests() loads the tool list directly, which is how the browser gets it.

  • analysis: resolve_params() is public, so asynchronous runs check parameters as gp.run does.

  • engine: external_start / external_complete plus a gp.finish {"id"} command apply a browser run's result through Session::run, so undo, history and rollback on error all work.

  • ui:

    • New Services::geolibre_manifests / geolibre_run hooks fill a shared slot that the app polls each frame.
    • The web card shows Load GeoLibre tools.
    • Run starts the asynchronous run, one at a time.
  • web: apps/rustgis-web/src/geolibre.rs bridges to the runner's listManifests / runTool through a small inline JS module.

Also fixed: whole numbers are passed as integers. The form sends floats, so --filter_size=3.0 reached tools that expect an integer. This affected the desktop too.

Checked

  • The JS bridge, as trunk ships it (snippets/…/inline0.js), in Chrome against geolibre-wasm@1.6.0 from jsDelivr: 1,065 tools listed; centroid_vector on a square returns its centre; a failing run returns its error as the last line, which the Rust side reports.
  • The app UI in a browser could not be checked here: the automation browser renders RustGIS's canvas blank, the live web.rustgis.app included. A manual click-through of Load → Run in a real browser is worth doing before merging.
  • Tests:
    • prepare / finish with no runner (staging names, the working coordinate system, /work and Windows argument paths, integers, loading results back to lon/lat).
    • The engine's async path end to end with a stand-in runner (gp.finish, undo, errors).
    • The native tools against the released v1.6.0 runner, after the refactor.
  • cargo xtask ci, clippy (desktop on 1.99, wasm32 on stable), the wasm build and pre-commit pass, and translations are at 100%.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • GeoLibre analysis tools can now run in the web app. The runner loads on demand, and its download is cached by the browser.
    • Web-based runs process data in the page without uploading it. Tools that require file paths remain desktop-only.
    • Browser tool loading and execution display loading, progress, and error states.
  • Improvements
    • Missing tool parameters can use valid defaults; required parameters are checked before a run starts.

The web app gets the GeoLibre toolboxes too, run by geolibre-rust's
WASI runner (the geolibre-wasm package, loaded from jsDelivr on demand
and cached by the browser) in an in-memory folder.

- geolibre: builds for wasm32. A run is now prepare() (stage inputs as
  bytes, arguments relative to a working folder) → a runner → finish()
  (output files and printed lines → layers). The native subprocess run
  is native.rs; the runner and installer are native only. Manifests
  can be set directly (set_manifests), which is how the browser loads
  the tool list.
- Whole numbers are passed as integers (the form sends floats, and
  tools expecting an integer rejected `--n=3.0`).
- analysis: resolve_params() is public, so an asynchronous run checks
  parameters as gp.run does.
- engine: external_start / external_complete and a gp.finish command
  apply a browser run's result with undo and history, like gp.run.
- ui: Services::geolibre_manifests / geolibre_run; the web card offers
  Load GeoLibre tools (remembered for the next visit); Run starts the
  asynchronous run and shows progress.
- web: geolibre.rs bridges to the runner's listManifests/runTool.

Checked: the JS bridge, as trunk ships it, against geolibre-wasm 1.6.0
in Chrome (1,065 tools listed, centroid_vector correct, errors
reported); prepare/finish without a runner; the engine's async path
end to end with a stand-in runner; native runs against the released
v1.6.0 runner.

Walkthrough

The change adds browser execution for GeoLibre tools through a WASI runner loaded on demand. The engine prepares and tracks asynchronous runs, and the geoprocessing UI polls their results and applies completed outputs. Native runner execution and user-facing documentation are also updated.

Changes

Browser GeoLibre execution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Manifest and job preparation
crates/analysis/src/lib.rs, crates/geolibre/Cargo.toml, crates/geolibre/src/lib.rs
Parameter resolution now fills valid defaults and reports missing required values. GeoLibre can load supplied manifests and prepare jobs with staged input bytes, runner arguments, and declared outputs.
Runner execution and result collection
crates/geolibre/src/native.rs, crates/geolibre/src/runner.rs, crates/geolibre/src/lib.rs, crates/geolibre/src/tests.rs
Native execution stages job files in a temporary directory. Result handling consumes runner output and returned files. The runner now returns stdout lines; tests cover preparation, output handling, and asynchronous completion.
Asynchronous engine run lifecycle
crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs, crates/engine/src/lib.rs, crates/engine/src/tests.rs
The engine adds external start and completion operations, tracks pending runs, and adds gp.finish to apply completed results.
Browser runner and service wiring
apps/rustgis-web/Cargo.toml, apps/rustgis-web/src/*, AGENTS.md, ATTRIBUTION.md, README.md, docs/user-guide.md
The web app loads the pinned WASI runner on demand and provides manifest and execution callbacks. Project and user documentation now describe browser support, loading, and path-based tool limitations.
Geoprocessing UI integration
crates/ui-egui/src/lib.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/panes.rs
The UI loads browser manifests, starts external runs, polls asynchronous results, and displays loading, error, and running states.

A rabbit watched the runner load,
Then sent a job along its road.
The files came back, the layers grew,
The map refreshed to show the view.
“A WASI hop!” the rabbit cried,
And tucked the finished tools inside.

Code review

I read the new web glue (apps/rustgis-web/src/geolibre.rs) and the async run path in crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs. I did not review the rest of the 34 changed files in depth. That includes crates/geolibre/src/lib.rs, native.rs, runner.rs, the ui-egui changes, the i18n catalogs and the tests. I haven't compiled or run anything.

Bugs

  • None confirmed in the files I read.

Security

  • Unverified runtime code from a CDN (apps/rustgis-web/src/geolibre.rs:18, medium confidence). The app imports geolibre-wasm from jsDelivr at run time. The version is pinned, but the import can't carry an integrity check. If the CDN or package were compromised, arbitrary JS and WASM would run in the app's origin. Consider vendoring or self-hosting the module and wasm, or document the trust decision.

Performance

  • Unbounded s.started and s.pending (crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs:140, low-medium confidence). started holds each job's input bytes until external_complete runs, and pending holds results until gp.finish runs. If a JS promise never settles, or the UI drops the slot before completing, those entries stay for the life of the session. Consider a cap or an expiry.

Quality

  • Minor: in apply, the error path pushes to gp_history and returns early, so the 500-entry cap only applies on success. This pattern looks like it was already there rather than introduced here.

CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md

  • No violations found in the reviewed code. It has no unwrap, expect or unsafe, it uses web_time, and the wasm-only code is gated by cfg.
  • I did not check that all 14 .tsv catalogs have identical keys for the new strings.

…oolboxes

- The tool form's back button drew "←" as text, which the web app's
  font lacks (a square); it is now the app's own back icon.
- Run, Install GeoLibre tools and Load GeoLibre tools are painted with
  the label centred on the glyphs (egui placed it by line metrics, so
  it sat low).
- While browsing, the built-in tools are collapsible toolboxes like the
  GeoLibre ones, under a RustGIS heading; searching still lists the
  matches flat.

Supply-chain note (confidence: medium): this dynamically imports third-party JS from a CDN with full page privileges and no Subresource Integrity or hash check. The version is pinned, but jsDelivr's /+esm build is rewritten on the fly and may resolve its own dependencies by range. Also, the "geolibre_web" pref means the ~25 MB runner is fetched and executed automatically on every later visit. Consider self-hosting the runner, or at least documenting the trust decision.

Same trust decision as answered in the earlier thread and documented in 1c857c5 (code comment and user guide). On the automatic load on later visits: it happens only after the user chose Load GeoLibre tools once, and it re-imports the same pinned version, usually from the browser cache. Whether to keep that convenience or ask every visit, and whether to self-host the runner (e.g. in rustgis-assets), is a product call, so I'm leaving this thread open for a maintainer.

Code review

I read the full diff and the surrounding code. I didn't build it or run any tests. I found no crash-level bugs. The prepare/runner/finish split is clean, the native behaviour appears preserved, and the new engine and geolibre tests cover the main paths. I posted three inline comments.

Bugs

  • Output-path filter hides results (low confidence). crates/geolibre/src/lib.rs:667 skips any string result that merely ends with an output file name. A statistic ending in output.tif would be dropped. The old code matched a scratch-dir prefix. Matching the full argument path, or the last path component, would be exact.
  • Shapefile outputs in the browser (low confidence). load() passes dir = None on web, so a .shp output goes to read_bytes without its .dbf and .shx sidecars. It will probably show an error message rather than a layer. Worth checking whether any tools produce shapefiles there.
  • Whole numbers sent as integers (low confidence). number() now sends 3 instead of 3.0. A tool that strictly wants a float and rejects an integer would now fail. This is unlikely, and the change fixes a real bug.

Security

  • Unverified third-party code from a CDN (medium confidence). apps/rustgis-web/src/geolibre.rs:13 imports JS from jsDelivr with no integrity check. The version is pinned, but the /+esm build is rewritten on the fly and may resolve its own dependencies by range. The saved geolibre_web pref also re-downloads and runs the ~25 MB runner on every later visit without asking. Self-hosting would remove this risk. At minimum, document the trust decision.

Performance

  • Staged jobs are never cleaned up (medium-low confidence). crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs:140: Session::started and Session::pending hold the staged input bytes, possibly large rasters, until a matching complete or finish call. If the JS promise never settles, or the project is replaced, they stay. Neither list has a cap or a reset. I'd clear both on project open or new.

Quality

  • Failed run text. The web error path joins the last 12 stdout lines. The native path used stderr, limited to 20 lines. This is fine, but the two differ.
  • poll_geolibre repaint loop. It requests a repaint every 100 ms while a load or run is pending. This is acceptable, but ctx.request_repaint() from the async callbacks, which already exist, would be enough.
  • Saved pref after a failed auto-load. If the startup auto-load fails, for example offline, the pref stays on and the error appears only in the card. That is reasonable behaviour, but it could be mentioned in the docs.

CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md

  • No-panic rule. I found no unwrap, expect or panic! in the new non-test code. The new JS-interop code uses unwrap_or, so the rule is followed.
  • Wasm and layering. The wasm cfg gating is consistent, and ureq, sha2 and flate2 are moved to native-only dependencies.
  • Translations. The new strings are added to all 14 .tsv catalogs, each with 5 lines, which looks complete.
  • Tests. I saw no new case for gp.finish in hostile_params_never_panic. I expect the generic junk-parameter sweep covers it, since the command is registered, but I'd confirm that.
  • Manual check still open. As the PR notes, the browser Load → Run flow wasn't checked in a real browser. That should be done before merging.

- Asynchronous runs (started, and finished but not applied) are cleared
  when the project is replaced, so a run of a closed project can't land
  in the new one, and each list keeps at most 8.
- A tool's results hide only the exact paths of its outputs (not any
  string ending in the same file name).
- A finished browser run shows its result under its own tool's form;
  with another tool open, a notification says how it went.
- Document the CDN trust decision (code comment, user guide), and that
  only the desktop and CLI wait while a tool runs.

Code review

I read the web bridge (apps/rustgis-web/src/geolibre.rs) and the engine's async-run path (crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs). I did not review the other changed files in depth, including the geolibre crate refactor, the UI panes, the i18n catalogs and the docs. I did not run any code.

Bugs

  • external_complete (crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs:166) is called directly by the UI, so rustgis_geolibre::finish parses untrusted runner output outside Session::run's panic catch. A panic in a GeoJSON, raster or CSV parser would crash the web app. Moving finish into gp.finish, or wrapping it in catch_unwind, would cover it. Confidence: medium. Posted inline.
  • external_start evicts the oldest queued run once more than 8 are waiting. A slow run that gets evicted then fails with "finished after its project was closed", which is misleading. The UI allows only one run at a time, so this is minor. Confidence: low. Posted inline.

Security

  • The web app dynamically imports geolibre-wasm@1.6.0 from jsDelivr and runs it in the app's origin. This is documented in the code, it only happens after the user clicks Load, and the version is pinned. A dynamic import can't carry Subresource Integrity, so the remaining risk is a CDN or package compromise. Confidence: low, and it is an accepted trade-off.

Performance

  • Nothing significant found. Large inputs are copied into Uint8Arrays, and finish runs on the UI thread, which could cause a brief freeze on big outputs. Confidence: low.

Quality

  • The geolibre.rs bridge defaults a missing exitCode to a failure and reports "the tool stopped unexpectedly" when no output was printed. That is sensible.
  • The PR description says the Load → Run flow was not checked in a real browser. I'd do a manual click-through before merging.

CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md

  • I found no unwrap, expect or unsafe in the reviewed code. The i18n catalogs were changed in all languages. I did not check their contents.
  • The "never crash" concern above is the only deviation I found.

- external_complete reads the runner's output under catch_unwind, as
  Session::run would, since it runs outside that guard.
- A run that is no longer waiting reports that it was dropped (project
  closed, or too many runs waiting) instead of only blaming the project.

strings assumes stdout is a JS array of lines. If runTool returns stdout as a single string, Array::from on a string splits it into characters, so lines and the exit-code error tail would be garbled. If it is undefined, Array::from yields an empty list. I couldn't check geolibre-wasm's return type from here, so please confirm it against the pinned 1.6.0 API. Splitting a string on \n in the JS shim would make this robust either way. Confidence: low-medium.

Evicting the oldest started run is silent, and so is eviction from pending. A slow run (a ~25 MB runner, a large raster) that is overtaken by 8 newer starts will finish with "the tool's run was dropped…". If the UI waits for that run, its entry stays "Running…" until the error is surfaced. Also, Vec::remove(0) on a list that holds full input byte buffers is fine at N=8, but a VecDeque would say what is meant. Confidence: low.

/// Builds every tool's spec from the runner's manifests (none without a runner).
/// The manifests: given directly, else the native runner's (none without one).
fn manifests() -> Vec<Value> {
if let Some(m) = MANIFESTS.lock().ok().and_then(|m| m.clone()) {

MANIFESTS is a process-global that takes priority over the native runner. Natively, gp.setGeolibre and gp.installGeolibre call set_runner → reload_external → manifests(). Once anything has called set_manifests (for example the engine's external_load_manifests, which is compiled natively too), later runner changes are ignored and the stale list stays in use. Consider making set_manifests wasm-only, or clearing MANIFESTS in set_runner. Confidence: medium-low.

Code review

I read the diff in full except the ui-egui changes (panes.rs, widgets.rs, the rest of lib.rs) and docs/user-guide.md, which I didn't review. I did not build or run anything. The change is a clean split of rustgis-geolibre into prepare and finish so the browser can run tools asynchronously. The new engine test and the geolibre unit test cover the main paths. I found no definite bugs, only the three concerns below, posted inline.

Bugs

  • apps/rustgis-web/src/geolibre.rs:63 (low–medium confidence). strings() assumes stdout is a JS array of lines. Array::from on a plain string splits it into characters, which would garble both the messages and the error tail shown on a non-zero exit. I couldn't check geolibre-wasm 1.6.0's return type, so please confirm it. Splitting on \n in the JS shim would work either way.
  • crates/geolibre/src/lib.rs:153 (medium–low confidence). The global MANIFESTS takes priority over the native runner's manifests. Once set_manifests has been called on a native build, set_runner and gp.installGeolibre reload a stale list. Clear it in set_runner, or make set_manifests wasm-only.
  • crates/engine/src/cmd/gp.rs:147 (low confidence). Runs evicted from started or pending (limit 8) are dropped silently. The caller only learns of it when gp.finish or external_complete errors later. Check that the UI shows that error and doesn't stay on "Running…". A VecDeque would also read better than remove(0).

Security

  • Remote code from jsDelivr (informational). The web app imports geolibre-wasm@1.6.0 from jsDelivr into the app's origin. Subresource Integrity can't be applied to a dynamic import. The code comment states the trade-off, the version is pinned, and it loads only when the user asks. That is acceptable, and the ATTRIBUTION.md note covers it. Consider a CSP that limits script-src to cdn.jsdelivr.net if the site has none.
  • Untrusted runner output. Runner output is read through catch_unwind and the data readers, and the output file names are matched exactly or by stem. I found no path-traversal use of runner-supplied names on the web path. On the native path, new_files reads only files in the scratch folder.

Performance

  • Memory on the web. Input bytes live in Session.started until the run completes (up to 8 runs). ExternalRun clones files for the JS call, and each input is copied again into a Uint8Array. This is acceptable for the current limits but will be noticeable with large rasters.
  • native::new_files. It reads every non-input file in the scratch folder into memory, including sidecars such as .dbf and .shx. That is fine in practice.

Quality

  • Job::args and argv. Both are sound, and the Windows-separator handling is tested. number() casts with as i64, guarded by abs() < 9e15, which is fine.
  • unwrap/panic! in tests only. unwrap and panic! appear only in #[cfg(test)] code.

CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md

  • Never crash. Non-test code uses no unwrap, expect or panic!, and external_complete guards the output parsers with catch_unwind.
  • Wasm. ureq, sha2 and flate2 moved to non-wasm targets, and the native-only modules are gated.
  • i18n. The 6 new strings are in all 14 catalogs. I didn't confirm the strings in panes.rs use tl! and i18n::fmt.
  • Hostile-params tests. I couldn't see whether gp.finish and external_start are covered by hostile_params_never_panic. Add them if not.
  • Docs. AGENTS.md, README.md, ATTRIBUTION.md and docs/user-guide.md were updated to match.
