# Plans
- [ ] Update https://github.com/python/skills for `Platforms/WASI/README.md`
- [ ] Official releases ([discussion](https://discuss.python.org/t/109821/))
- [ ] 🔖 Test via the buildbot
- [x] `test` subcommand ([PR](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/161435))
- [ ] Update the buildbots
- [ ] Have the RM release the [binaries via GHA](https://github.com/python/release-tools/blob/main/.github/workflows/build-release.yml)
- [ ] SBOMs
- [ ] Sigstore signing
- [ ] `wasi package`
- [x] Figure out file name (`python-3.25.0a3-wasm32-wasip1.tar.xz`; host triple from `config.toml`; [`platform.python_version()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/platform.html#platform.python_version))
- [x] Research what should be shipped for building extensions
- [X] [Refactor](https://github.com/brettcannon/cpython/tree/wasi-refactor) `Platforms/WASI` to support other subcommands ([PR](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/145404))
- [x] Get tests passing
- [ ] Backport to 3.15
- [ ] https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/4521718ca572ec8105fa5aa78f197c681a2c2907#diff-40ee6f21d105d5456d9d04a8ca1ecb9d7f09f763781795174756321b5737b90c
- [ ] Copy code
- [ ] Update Buildbot
- [ ] PEP for a wheel tag ([discussion](https://bytecodealliance.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/219900-wasi/topic/Platform.20tags.20for.20packages.20targeting.20WASI/with/516694780))
- [x] Expose WASI details in `sys` or `platform` ([changes in wasi-libc](https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-libc/issues/688))
- [ ] Draft PEP (thanks to PEP 816, might be able to do something simple and non-standard `wasi_N_N_sdk_N_wasm32` in `packaging` when not matching PEP 11)
- [ ] Post to DPO
- [ ] Submit for approval
- [ ] [External dependencies](https://github.com/python/cpython-source-deps) via `wasi externals`
- [ ] Figure out what version policy we want (i.e. always latest or freeze versions like Windows builds? If latter, specify in `config.toml`)
- [ ] [zlib](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/91246) (and potentially undoing part of https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/130297) or zlib-ng
- `RANLIB=/opt/wasi-sdk-29.0-x86_64-linux/bin/ranlib CC=/opt/wasi-sdk-29.0-x86_64-linux/bin/clang CHOST=wasm32 ./configure --static --zlib-compat --prefix <...> && make install`
- Blank out `PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR` and `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`, set `PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR` to where `lib/pkgconfig` ended up from `--prefix`
- [ ] bzip2
- [ ] xz

- [ ] sqlite
- [ ] zstd
- [ ] mpdecimal
- [x] OpenSSL (not safe as WebAssembly doesn't have constant-time ops)
- [ ] 🛑 Networking under WASI 0.3 (blocked on threading in WASI 0.3 being released)
- [Joel's hack](https://github.com/dicej/cpython/commit/118e9d8eeabb6345d57295f6cec1616694eacbc2)
- [wasi-libc patches](https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-libc/blob/main/test/scripts/cpython3.14.patch)
- Any tests requiring threads probably won't work
- See the [headers in wasi-libc](https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-libc/tree/main/libc-top-half/musl/include) for what can be turned on
- Will probably require tweaking `config.site`
- [ ] 🥧 Make sure build details are still relevant
- [ ] Check if all the flags set in `configure.ac` are necessary
- [ ] Check what `__wasi__` usage can be removed ([issue](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/156692))
- [x] [Check](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/115982) that the [site config](https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Tools/wasm/config.site-wasm32-wasi) is up-to-date
