What does this PR do?

Wires pkg/tree, pkg/resource, pkg/instructions, and pkg/catalog directly into a WASM module (karta-wasm/) exposed to the Headlamp plugin as a single window.karta object:

  • buildTree(definition, workload) — calls tree.Build as-is, returns the real tree.WorkloadTree
  • attributePods(definition, workload, pods) — classifies each pod to a (component, instance) pair via pkg/instructions' jq-based matching; returns a flat classification rather than a pre-spliced tree, since splicing a classified pod into a tree the caller already holds is plain data plumbing that doesn't need Go
  • evaluatePhases(definition, workload) — reuses tree.Build's own root-status computation
  • listCatalog() — exposes the embedded catalog (pkg/catalog)

Every binding returns a {data, error} JSON envelope.

On the plugin side, adds headlamp-plugin/src/lib/karta/:

  • karta.ts — WASM module loading (script injection via ApiProxy, WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming)
  • karta-util.ts — typed JSON-encode/envelope-decode wrappers around the raw bindings
  • karta.types.ts — wire types mirroring the real Go marshal output (including pkg/tree's un-tagged, PascalCase shape — deliberately not reshaped in Go)
  • index.ts — barrel export

Testing strategy

  • karta-wasm/*_test.go — exercise the js.FuncOf bindings directly against real Karta definitions, via Go's Node-based wasm test runner (GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go test -exec=.../go_js_wasm_exec)
  • karta-util.test.ts — calls the real compiled karta.wasm end to end, no mocking of Go's output, so a change to what pkg/tree/pkg/resource/pkg/instructions/pkg/catalog actually return breaks this test, not just a stale mock
  • karta.test.ts — covers the loader: script injection, and the instantiateStreaming failure path (logs and rejects without ever calling go.run)

Checklist

  • All commits are signed off with DCO (git commit -s)
  • New/modified files have SPDX license and copyright headers
  • Tests pass (make check for the root/cli modules; karta-wasm and headlamp-plugin verified separately — see note below)
  • No proprietary or internal information included

Note on make check: karta-wasm and headlamp-plugin are not yet wired into make check (pre-existing gap, not introduced by this PR). Verified separately: GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go build/vet/test + golangci-lint for karta-wasm, and make headlamp-plugin-build (lint/tsc/test/build) for the plugin.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added WebAssembly-powered workload tree construction, pod attribution, phase evaluation, and catalog listing.
    • Added structured results and error handling for Karta operations.
    • Added support for Karta resource, workload, pod, scaling, and status data.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved engine loading feedback with loading, ready, and error states.
    • WebAssembly loading failures now report the original error instead of silently falling back.
  • Documentation
    • Updated build and development instructions for the renamed Karta WebAssembly module.

Wires pkg/tree, pkg/resource, pkg/instructions, and pkg/catalog directly
into a WASM module (karta-wasm/) exposed to the Headlamp plugin as a single
window.karta object: buildTree, attributePods, evaluatePhases, and
listCatalog, each returning a {data, error} JSON envelope. Pod attribution
returns a flat classification (component + instance per pod index) rather
than a pre-spliced tree, since attaching a classified pod to a tree the
caller already holds is plain data plumbing that does not need Go.

On the plugin side, adds headlamp-plugin/src/lib/karta/: karta.ts (WASM
module loading), karta-util.ts (typed JSON-encode/envelope-decode wrappers),
karta.types.ts (wire types mirroring the real Go marshal output, including
pkg/tree's un-tagged PascalCase shape), and an index.ts barrel export.

Testing is split by what each layer can catch:
- karta-wasm/*_test.go exercise the js.FuncOf bindings directly against
  real Karta definitions, running via Go's Node-based wasm test runner
  (GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go test -exec=.../go_js_wasm_exec).
- karta-util.test.ts calls the real compiled karta.wasm end to end (no
  mocking of Go's output), so a change to what pkg/tree/pkg/resource/
  pkg/instructions/pkg/catalog actually return breaks this test, not just
  a stale mock.
- karta.test.ts covers the loader itself: script injection via
  ApiProxy-fetched blobs, and the instantiateStreaming failure path
  (logs and rejects without ever calling go.run).

Walkthrough

The change replaces the former WASM engine with karta-wasm. It adds Go bindings for Karta operations, TypeScript contracts and wrappers, plugin loading states, integration tests, and updated build, asset, and documentation paths.

Changes

Karta WASM integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Build and artifact wiring
.gitignore, Makefile, headlamp-plugin/README.md, headlamp-plugin/package.json
Renames WASM build targets, artifact paths, dependency metadata, documentation references, and plugin assets from wasm-engine to karta-wasm.
WASM API implementation
karta-wasm/*
Adds the Go WASM module, JSON decoding and envelope encoding, JavaScript bindings for tree construction, pod attribution, phase evaluation, and catalog listing, plus binding and codec tests.
TypeScript Karta client
headlamp-plugin/src/lib/karta/*
Adds Karta resource and workload types, replaces the version API with engine operations, exposes a public entry point, and adds utility wrappers for WASM responses.
Plugin readiness and integration validation
headlamp-plugin/src/index.tsx, headlamp-plugin/src/lib/karta/karta.test.ts, headlamp-plugin/src/lib/karta/kartaUtil.test.ts
Updates engine loading and readiness display, verifies streaming instantiation errors, and tests catalog, tree, phase, and pod attribution behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f35c2

The loader can fail to initialize Karta when the response uses an unexpected content type, creating a bounded runtime availability risk; the PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up.

Poem

I’m a rabbit who watched the WASM paths align
Four Karta calls now hop through the line
Trees and pods find their proper place
Phases and catalogs finish the race
The plugin says ready, neat and bright
And tests guard the burrow tonight

WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming with wasmResp.clone(), then fall back to
awaiting wasmResp.arrayBuffer() and using WebAssembly.instantiate when streaming
rejects. Preserve the existing error propagation for failures after both
attempts, and update the related test to cover responses without the WASM

why to work with string json and not object ? e.g [key: string]: any;


export async function buildTree(definition: Karta, workload: Workload): Promise<WorkloadTree> {
const engine = await getKartaEngine();
return unwrap(engine.buildTree(JSON.stringify(definition), JSON.stringify(workload)), {

note that you per call you serialize to json and back to object - right now I guess it's really brings performance issues but just I want to make sure you aware of it - another option would be something like

const h = engine.load(JSON.stringify(definition), JSON.stringify(workload)); // returns an int handle
engine.buildTree(h);
engine.evaluatePhases(h);
engine.release(h);

doesn't really make sense that you pass definitionJSON if above you convert it from json to v1alpha1.Karta

I think you should on the top of the function decode definitionJSON and workloadJSON and use directly the karta functions from that point
