Builtin bundles

Ship one or more .wvb bundles inside your Tauri app so the webview loads offline, before any over-the-air update. Install them at build time with wvb builtin, then ship the directory as a Tauri resource.

Install bundles at build time

wvb builtin writes a manifest.json plus one <name>/<name>_<version>.wvb file per bundle into --out. Point it at the directory you ship as a resource:

wvb builtin --out src-tauri/bundles

The source is chosen by builtin.target in your config — a remote target downloads from an endpoint, a local target packs bundles from your workspaces. See the wvb builtin reference for every flag.

Ship the directory as a resource

List the bundles directory under bundle.resources so Tauri packs it into the app:

{
  "bundle": {
    "resources": ["bundles/**/*"]
  }
}

Where bundles resolve at runtime

By default the plugin serves builtin bundles from a bundles directory in the app's resource directory. Override the location on the Source:

use wvb_tauri::Source;

// Static path, resolved through Tauri's path API.
Source::new().builtin_dir("$RESOURCE/bundles");

// Or compute it from the AppHandle.
Source::new().builtin_dir_fn(|app| Ok(app.path().resource_dir()?.join("bundles")));
