Code Quality: Overcomplicated functions and poor error handling #10

Description

@Aussie-Nomad

Problem

The codebase contained many overcomplicated functions and lacked proper error handling, making it difficult to maintain and debug.

Issues Identified

  1. Monolithic Functions: Single functions handling multiple responsibilities
  2. Poor Error Handling: Generic error messages without recovery suggestions
  3. No Input Validation: Missing validation for user inputs and API responses
  4. Complex Dependencies: Tightly coupled components making testing difficult
  5. No Logging: Limited debugging information for production issues

Impact

  • Difficult to debug production issues
  • Poor user experience with generic error messages
  • High maintenance overhead
  • Difficult to add new features
  • Unreliable error recovery

Solution Implemented

  1. Function Refactoring: Split large functions into focused, single-purpose functions
  2. Enhanced Error Handling: Created comprehensive error types with recovery suggestions
  3. Input Validation: Added proper validation for all user inputs
  4. Dependency Injection: Implemented proper dependency management
  5. Comprehensive Logging: Added detailed logging for debugging

Files Affected

  • All service classes (AIService, PackageAnalysisService, etc.)
  • UI components and view models
  • Error handling throughout the application

Code Quality Improvements

  • Single Responsibility Principle compliance
  • Comprehensive error handling with user-friendly messages
  • Proper input validation and sanitization
  • Improved testability and maintainability

Status

Resolved - Codebase now follows enterprise-grade practices with proper error handling.
