Fixes #153.

ArNS names that can't form a URL (e.g. xn--g1h4420f) made every assessment throw Invalid URL, so the name failed for every gateway.

  • Chosen names: SolanaNamesSource drops them from the sampling pool, so the sampler picks another name and the chosen count stays the same.
  • Prescribed names: GatewayAssessor.assessArnsNames (continuous) and Observer.assessArnsNames (one-shot CLI) leave them out of name scoring. The one-shot name count now counts assessed names.

The check is isAssessableArnsName in lib/arns-validation.ts, which is URL.canParse('https://${name}.invalid/').

Tests: one regression test per site, each failing before the change. Full suite passes.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Names that cannot be parsed as valid URLs are now excluded from name lists and gateway assessments.
    • Assessment results and pass thresholds now reflect only names that can be assessed, preventing unusable names from skewing results.

Names like xn--g1h4420f can't form a URL, so every assessment threw
Invalid URL and failed the name for every gateway. Chosen names now
exclude them from the sampling pool and prescribed ones are left out
of name scoring.

Fixes ar-io#153

Walkthrough

The change adds a URL-parseability check for ArNS names. SolanaNamesSource excludes names that fail it, and gateway and observer assessment paths skip them. The observer pass-threshold denominator now uses names present in assessment maps. Tests cover xn--g1h4420f.

Changes: ArNS name filtering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validate names before source inclusion
src/lib/arns-validation.ts, src/names/solana-names-source.ts, src/names/solana-names-source.test.ts
The new isAssessableArnsName check tests whether a name forms a parseable HTTPS URL. SolanaNamesSource excludes names that fail the check. A test verifies that only the valid name is returned.
Filter assessment inputs and results
src/assessment/gateway-assessor.ts, src/assessment/gateway-assessor.test.ts, src/observer.ts, src/observer.test.ts
Gateway and observer assessment paths skip names rejected by the check and key results to the filtered names. The observer pass-threshold denominator counts distinct names in the merged assessment maps. Tests verify that xn--g1h4420f is not assessed or resolved.

The fix correctly skips unparseable ArNS names for the registry-backed source and in both assessment paths. A manually configured ARNS_NAMES list can still lose a chosen assessment if it contains an invalid name. That is a narrow edge case, and the fix is a one-line filter before sampling.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "fix(arns): skip names that aren't valid hostnames" matches the main change. The PR adds an isAssessableArnsName check that excludes ArNS names which URL parsing rejects, and applies it in the Solana names source, GatewayAssessor, and Observer. The title names the fix, the affected area (arns), and the behavior (skipping invalid hostnames). It uses a conventional commit prefix and is one short sentence, with no file lists or vague terms.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #153 requires valid-hostname filtering for chosen and prescribed names. isAssessableArnsName uses URL.canParse with the gateway URL form. SolanaNamesSource excludes rejected names from the chosen pool. GatewayAssessor.assessArnsNames and Observer.assessArnsNames exclude rejected prescribed names from scoring. Observer also bases the one-shot name threshold on assessed result keys. Regression tests cover the assessor, observer, and name source paths.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes stay within issue #153. The shared validation helper, filtering in the three assessment or sampling paths, the one-shot count correction, and the related regression tests directly prevent invalid ArNS names from causing gateway failures or reducing the assessed-name count. No unrelated change is shown.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

No eligible functions found in the changed files. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 0 functions across 7 files.

Comment thread src/observer.ts Resolved
The static name list is operator-supplied, so an unusable entry is a
configuration error. Fail at startup instead of letting the sampler
pick a name that assessment then skips.
