Q: Is it possible to plug-and-play with this?

[srenatus]

Please bear with me, just wrapping my mind around how the WasmEdge stack works 😅

Right or wrong? To build, say, a kafka client library and use it to create a wasm module that wasmedge can run, I'd have to fork the existing client library, and swap out its internals, have it call the low-level tcp stream functions provided by this crate.

Thanks in advance!

Correct. Actually, we wrap the low-level socket operators as several tcp stream functions. To use the WASI-Socket feature, you will need to use this crate to replace the existing client library. Thanks.

Thanks!

Are there plans to expand the protocols supported on top of wasi_socket?

We would love to support more networking protocols in our extension. The most obvious one is SSL and HTTPS. Anything else we should consider? Thanks.
