test: wait for event utils (#121)

## Summary
This PR introduces comprehensive event waiting utilities for both
DataHaven (Substrate) and Ethereum chains, providing a unified
  interface for handling blockchain events in E2E tests.

  ## What's New
- **Event Utilities** (`test/utils/events.ts`): New utilities for
waiting on blockchain events
- `waitForDataHavenEvent`: Type-safe event waiting for Substrate chain
events
    - `waitForEthereumEvent`: Event waiting for Ethereum contract events
    - Graceful timeout handling (returns null instead of throwing)
    - Support for event filtering, callbacks, and custom timeouts

- **Documentation** (`test/docs/event-utilities-guide.md`):
Comprehensive guide covering usage examples for both DataHaven and
Ethereum.

  ## Test Plan
  - [ ] New event utilities work as expected
  - [ ] Event filtering works correctly for both chains
  - [ ] Timeout handling behaves as documented
  - [ ] Parallel event waiting with `Promise.all()` works

# Event Utilities Usage Guide
This guide demonstrates how to use event utilities for waiting and handling blockchain events in DataHaven (Substrate) and Ethereum chains.
## Overview
The event utilities provide a unified, type-safe interface for handling blockchain events with:
- **Consistent API**: Similar patterns for both DataHaven and Ethereum
- **Composable design**: Use `Promise.all()` for parallel event waiting
- **Graceful timeouts**: Functions return `null` on timeout (no errors thrown)
- **Type safety**: Full TypeScript support with proper event typing
## Quick Start
### DataHaven Events
```typescript
import { waitForDataHavenEvent } from '@test/e2e-suite/utils/datahaven';
const result = await waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Balances",
event: "Transfer",
timeout: 10000
});
if (result.data) {
console.log(`Transfer: ${result.data.amount}`);
}
```
### Ethereum Events
```typescript
import { waitForEthereumEvent } from '@test/e2e-suite/utils/ethereum';
const result = await waitForEthereumEvent({
client: publicClient,
address: tokenAddress,
abi: erc20Abi,
eventName: "Transfer",
timeout: 10000
});
if (result.log) {
console.log(`Transfer: ${result.log.args.value}`);
}
```
## DataHaven Event Handling
### Transaction Submission (Direct Events)
When you submit your own transaction, you can get immediate access to all events:
```typescript
const result = await dhApi.tx.Balances
.transfer({ dest: recipient, value: amount })
.signAndSubmit(signer);
// result type: TxFinalized
if (result.ok) {
// Access all events from the transaction
const transfer = result.events.find(
e => e.pallet === "Balances" && e.name === "Transfer"
);
if (transfer) {
console.log(`Transferred: ${transfer.value.amount}`);
}
} else {
console.error(`Failed:`, result.dispatchError);
}
```
**Use this approach when:**
- ✅ You're submitting the transaction yourself
- ✅ You need events from that specific transaction
- ✅ You want synchronous access to results
### Waiting for External Events
Use `waitForDataHavenEvent` when monitoring for events from other sources:
```typescript
const result = await waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Balances",
event: "Transfer",
filter: (e) => e.to === myAddress,
timeout: 10000
});
if (result.data) {
console.log(`Received transfer: ${result.data.amount}`);
}
```
**Use this approach when:**
- ✅ Waiting for events from other transactions
- ✅ Monitoring cross-chain events
- ✅ Watching for external activity
- ✅ Implementing time-based conditions
#### With Filtering
```typescript
const result = await waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Balances",
event: "Transfer",
timeout: 10000,
// Only match transfers from specific sender with amount > 1000
filter: (event) => event.from === senderAddress && event.amount > 1000n
});
```
#### With Callbacks
```typescript
const result = await waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Staking",
event: "Rewarded",
timeout: 30000,
// Real-time processing as events are found
onEvent: (event) => {
console.log(`✅ Reward received: ${event.amount}`);
updateRewardsDisplay(event.amount);
// Callback doesn't affect the return value
}
});
```
### Multiple Events
Wait for multiple events in parallel:
```typescript
const [transfer, reward, slash] = await Promise.all([
waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Balances",
event: "Transfer",
timeout: 10000,
filter: (e) => e.to === myAddress
}),
waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Staking",
event: "Rewarded",
timeout: 5000 // Shorter timeout for optional event
}),
waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Staking",
event: "Slashed",
timeout: 5000
})
]);
// Handle results - some may be null (timeout)
if (!transfer.data) {
throw new Error("Expected transfer not received");
}
if (reward.data) {
console.log(`Received reward: ${reward.data.amount}`);
} else {
console.log("No rewards in this period (normal)");
}
if (slash.data) {
console.warn(`Got slashed: ${slash.data.amount}`);
}
```
## Ethereum Event Handling
### Basic Usage
```typescript
const result = await waitForEthereumEvent({
client: publicClient,
address: contractAddress,
abi: contractAbi,
eventName: "StateChanged",
timeout: 30000
});
if (result.log) {
console.log(`New state: ${result.log.args.newState}`);
console.log(`Block: ${result.log.blockNumber}`);
console.log(`Tx: ${result.log.transactionHash}`);
}
```
### With Argument Filtering
Filter events by their arguments:
```typescript
const result = await waitForEthereumEvent({
client: publicClient,
address: tokenAddress,
abi: erc20Abi,
eventName: "Transfer",
// Only match specific transfers
args: {
from: myAddress, // Must be FROM myAddress
to: recipientAddress // Must be TO recipientAddress
// Omit 'value' to match any amount
},
timeout: 30000
});
```
### With Callbacks
Process events in real-time:
```typescript
const result = await waitForEthereumEvent({
client: publicClient,
address: dexAddress,
abi: dexAbi,
eventName: "Swap",
args: {
tokenIn: wethAddress,
tokenOut: usdcAddress
},
onEvent: (log) => {
const { amountIn, amountOut } = log.args;
const rate = Number(amountOut) / Number(amountIn);
console.log(`Swap at rate: ${rate}`);
console.log(`Block: ${log.blockNumber}`);
// Update UI, send notifications, etc.
updatePriceDisplay(rate);
},
timeout: 60000
});
```
## Error Handling
### Timeout Handling
Events that timeout return `null`, not an error:
```typescript
const result = await waitForDataHavenEvent({
api: dhApi,
pallet: "Staking",
event: "Rewarded",
timeout: 5000
});
if (!result.data) {
// Timeout - decide how to handle
console.log("No rewards within 5 seconds");
// Option 1: Continue (if event is optional)
// Option 2: Retry with longer timeout
// Option 3: Fail the test
throw new Error("Expected rewards not received");
}
// Safe to use result.data here
console.log(`Rewards: ${result.data.amount}`);
```
### Error vs Timeout
```typescript
try {
const result = await waitForEthereumEvent({
client: publicClient,
address: tokenAddress,
abi: erc20Abi,
eventName: "Transfer",
timeout: 10000
});
if (!result.log) {
// Timeout - not an error
console.log("No transfer within 10 seconds");
// Handle based on your needs
} else {
// Event found
processTransfer(result.log);
}
} catch (error) {
// Only actual errors reach here:
// - Network issues
// - Invalid parameters
// - Contract/API errors
console.error("Unexpected error:", error);
}
```
