Web-IFC on Next.js about engine_web-ifc

yeah that is part of the normal process - you need to add, either as part of the build or bundling, the wasm file.

I think this is the normal approach to take.

you can change the wasm path SetWasmPath('../../../')

I am not familir with react - but I would expect you need the import at the top of the file not in the function. The error is probably to do with bundling. You need to make sure the wasm is available in a public directory or similar so it can be fetched by the javascript.

Thank you for the answer!
I tried importing it in different ways, but the problem is not the import, the problem is when I try to initialize it Init()
even if I call the method SetWasmPath before, with both relative or absolute path.
😢

Can you look at the developer tools in the log and see what is happening when it tries to retrieve the wasm? If you can show me I can help from there

[SoftwareMechanic]

I can see this when I try to initialize ifcAPI:

error 404, not found. basically it can not find the wasm even if I put it in the public folder. (just out of curiosity I also tried to put it manually in the folder where it is looking for it, but I got the same error)

EDIT:

logs:

Is the file actually there - can you access it in the browser? It is something to do with your bundling - you may need to explicit tell the bunlder to put the wasm file in there.

[SoftwareMechanic]

if I type the path in the browser, the browser downloads it for me:

I will search for more info on how to bundle it.

I just retried put the wasm file in the directory: .next\static\chunks\app and now it worked, don't know why it didn't before 😵‍💫
for now I will keep the issue opened in case someone knows a better solution.

Thank you @beachtom for your willingness to help me!
