Summary

asyncAggregateWithRandomness was declared as a pub fn in bindings/napi/blst.zig and re-exported from bindings/src/blst.js, but at runtime the JS-side binding was undefined. This PR rewrites the function to use the zapi DSL so it is actually registered as a JS export.

Root cause

zapi's exportModule auto-registration (export_module.zig, wrap_function.zig:isDslOrOptionalDsl) only picks up a pub fn when all of its parameters are DSL types (napi.Value, DSL wrappers like js.Array, or class types). The previous signature

pub fn asyncAggregateWithRandomness(env: napi.Env, cb: napi.CallbackInfo(1)) !napi.Value

uses raw NAPI types, so the function was silently skipped at registration. Because Zig is lazy about analyzing unreferenced functions, this also hid several internal bugs in the body that would otherwise have failed to compile.

Test plan

  • pnpm test
  • zig build build-lib:bindings -Doptimize=ReleaseSafe builds cleanly.

Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses an issue where asyncAggregateWithRandomness was not correctly exposed to the JavaScript environment due to signature mismatches with the zapi auto-registration requirements. By refactoring the function to adhere to the zapi DSL, the binding is now properly registered and functional. Additionally, the internal data handling was updated to improve type safety and robustness.

Highlights

  • NAPI Binding Fix: Rewrote the asyncAggregateWithRandomness function to use the zapi DSL, ensuring it is correctly registered as a JS export.
  • Type Safety Improvements: Updated internal data structures to use NativePublicKey and NativeSignature types for better consistency and compatibility with the NAPI layer.
  • Testing: Added comprehensive test coverage for asyncAggregateWithRandomness, including validation of promise resolution, error handling, and concurrent execution.

Code Review

This pull request implements the asyncAggregateWithRandomness function within the Zig NAPI bindings, refactoring the implementation to use js.Array and js.convertReturn while updating internal structures to use native public key and signature types. Comprehensive TypeScript tests were also added to verify the new asynchronous functionality. Review feedback identifies several violations of the repository style guide, specifically regarding the use of abbreviated variable names like stat, the use of underscores in function names, and the requirement to include assertions for all function arguments to maintain the necessary assertion density.

The variable name stat is an abbreviation of status, which violates the repository style guide (Rule 221). Additionally, the function name asyncAggRand_complete uses an underscore, violating the camelCase requirement for function names (Rule 216). Finally, per Rule 51, function arguments should be asserted to ensure they are valid before use.

fn asyncAggRand_complete(env: napi.Env, status: napi.status.Status, data: *AsyncAggRandData) void {
    std.debug.assert(env.env != null);
    std.debug.assert(data.work != null);
    defer {

  3. Assert all function arguments and return values. The assertion density of the code must average a minimum of two assertions per function. (link)

* feat: warn when dsl incompatible functions are skipped

Zig functions are skipped if they:

1) are not `pub fn`,
2) do not use DSL-compatible types from the `js` module

We can't error since we want flexibility to define and use other
functions in the same file, so we just
add a simple warning to warn the user about this at comptime.

This is to avoid future situations encountered here: ChainSafe/lodestar-z#371

* fix: use the compile time error
