Setup

wuzapi dependency

You’ll need wuzapi.

Via homebrew

brew install asternic/wuzapi/wuzapi

Build wuzapi from source

Requires the Go toolchain.

git clone https://github.com/asternic/wuzapi.git
cd wuzapi
go build .

The compiled wuzapi binary will be in the current directory.

You can move it to a location in your PATH or add wuzapi’s location to Emacs’s exec-path.

Install wasabi

Wasabi isn’t on MELPA just yet. You’ll need to install it from it’s GitHub repo.

You can use something like:

(use-package wasabi
  :ensure t
  :vc (:url "https://github.com/xenodium/wasabi" :branch "main"))

Note: Wasabi currently depends on acp.el (available on MELPA) ->purely<- for its json-rpc implementation.
