Problem

Reading a bindings object that carries a specification extension next to the protocol keys:

bindings:
  ws:
    method: GET
  x-ext: hello

added the error ChannelBinding x-ext is not found, although the document is valid. The binding loaders treated every property as a binding key. In V3 the extension was still read afterwards; in V2 it was dropped.

Separately, a binding key with no registered parser (for example nats when only the Kafka bindings are registered) was reported as an error, even though the spec allows any protocol name.

Change

The eight V2/V3 server/channel/operation/message binding loaders now delegate to one helper, BindingDeserializer.LoadBindings, which:

  • skips x- keys in the binding pass and reads them as extensions, in V2 as well as V3
  • adds a warning instead of an error when no parser is registered: ChannelBinding 'nats' was ignored because no binding parser is registered for it.
  • no longer adds a second, misleading "not found" error when a parser fails with an AsyncApiException (the parser's own error is still reported)

Behaviour change to be aware of

Unregistered bindings move from diagnostic.Errors to diagnostic.Warnings, and the message text changes. The binding is still not loaded. Callers that relied on Errors to detect unregistered bindings need to look at Warnings instead.

Tests

Added BindingsDiagnostics_Should, covering both cases for all four binding kinds in V2 and V3 (16 cases). Full suite: 238 passed on net8.0.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • AsyncAPI 2.0 and 3.0 documents now load x- extension fields on server, channel, operation, and message bindings without warnings or errors. Extensions are retained alongside the other binding data.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Unregistered bindings now produce a warning and are ignored, while recognized bindings in the same map continue to load. This applies to server, channel, operation, and message bindings in both supported document versions.

…ng extensions

Specification extensions (x-*) placed on a bindings object were reported as
"<Kind>Binding x-... is not found" errors, and in V2 they were dropped as well.
Binding keys without a registered parser were reported as errors even though
the document is valid.

The eight V2/V3 binding loaders now share BindingDeserializer.LoadBindings, which:
- skips extension keys and reads them as extensions (V2 and V3)
- adds a warning instead of an error when no parser is registered for a key
- no longer adds a second "not found" error when a parser fails

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Binding-map parsing is centralized in BindingDeserializer and used by AsyncAPI 2.0 and 3.0 deserializers. Tests cover extension fields and warnings for unregistered bindings across server, channel, operation, and message bindings.

Changes

Binding deserialization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared binding-map loader
src/ByteBard.AsyncAPI.Readers/BindingDeserializer.cs
The shared loader processes pattern fields, parses registered bindings, warns when a binding parser is unavailable, and records AsyncApiException failures as errors.
Versioned binding integration and tests
src/ByteBard.AsyncAPI.Readers/V2/*BindingDeserializer.cs, src/ByteBard.AsyncAPI.Readers/V3/*BindingDeserializer.cs, test/ByteBard.AsyncAPI.Tests/Bindings/BindingsDiagnostics_Should.cs
AsyncAPI 2.0 and 3.0 binding deserializers delegate inline binding maps to the shared loader. Tests check extension parsing and warnings for unregistered bindings across binding categories.

Documents containing unregistered bindings may lose those bindings when read and written back without an error. Preserve the bindings or retain the error before merging.

There might be an issue here, in that without a parser, the document cannot be reserialized to back to the 'same' document shape.
I will need to look a bit closer though.

We would at least need a test showing this scenario. 2 bindings, 1 with a parser and 1 without.

@bielu
Here is my actual review, after reading the change;

  1. The extension fix, is a clear win. Good find!
  2. There is a slightly breaking change here, in that changing the error to a warning 'could' be breaking existing implementors, this is however fine, if we can prove that raw bindings are preserved once re-serialized (They aren't).
    This leaves us at keeping the error around (as the document model drops them), until we implement a way to preserve the raw binding. (There might be an opportunity to do this using the workspace and asyncapiany to store it actually... but should be a follow up PR i reckon.)

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Unregistered bindings are now dropped silently, and they are not preserved.

Before this change, an unregistered binding name added an entry to Diagnostic.Errors. Now it adds only a warning. The binding is still not added to AsyncApiBindings, so reserialization loses it. A caller that checks diagnostic.Errors.Count == 0 before it writes the document back will now drop user data with no error. The PR reviewer (VisualBean) raised the same concern. Keep the error until the model can preserve raw bindings. The other option is to keep the raw node, for example as an extension-like raw binding, so that the warning does not hide data loss.

Proposed interim fix
-                    context.Diagnostic.Warnings.Add(
-                        new AsyncApiError(context.GetLocation(), $"{bindingType} '{property.Name}' was ignored because no binding parser is registered for it."));
+                    context.Diagnostic.Errors.Add(
+                        new AsyncApiError(context.GetLocation(), $"{bindingType} '{property.Name}' was ignored because no binding parser is registered for it."));

@VisualBean Fair point—you raised the data-loss concern first. My review comment repeated your finding rather than adding new analysis. I should have credited you clearly.
