Quality Improvements - Implementation Summary

Date: October 22, 2025

Critical Issues Resolved

1. ✅ Fixed Missing Import Error (CRITICAL)

File: src/core/providers/enhanced_provider.py

• Issue: Import error from non-existent error_handler module causing runtime failure
• Solution: Created stub module at src/core/error_handler.py with:
  • RetryableError, NonRetryableError, NetworkError, DownloadError exception classes
  • with_error_recovery decorator for automatic retry logic
  • RecoveryStrategies class with network and download failure handling
  • FileCorruptionDetector class for video file validation
• Impact: Application now starts without import errors ✅

2. ✅ Fixed CORS Configuration (SECURITY)

File: src/server/fastapi_app.py

• Issue: allow_origins=["*"] exposes API to any domain (production security risk)
• Solution:
  • Updated to use environment-based CORS_ORIGINS setting
  • Defaults to localhost for development
  • Production can configure via .env file
  • Added security warning in code comments
• Impact: Improved API security and configurability ✅

3. ✅ Fixed Type Hint Syntax Errors (PEP8)

Files:

• src/core/providers/streaming/Provider.py
• src/core/providers/streaming/voe.py
• src/core/providers/streaming/doodstream.py

Issues Fixed:

• Invalid return type (str, [str]) → corrected to tuple[str, dict[str, Any]]
• Method names not following PEP8:
  • GetLink() → get_link()
  • embededLink → embedded_link
  • DEFAULT_REQUEST_TIMEOUT → timeout

Changes:

• Base Provider abstract class with proper type hints
• Updated all implementations (VOE, Doodstream) with correct signatures
• Updated all callers to use new method names
• Added comprehensive docstrings for all methods

Impact: Fixed ~12 type checking violations ✅

4. ✅ Enhanced Base Provider Documentation (PEP257)

File: src/core/providers/base_provider.py

Improvements:

• Added comprehensive type hints to all abstract methods
• Enhanced docstrings for all parameters with clear descriptions
• Added return type annotations with detailed documentation
• Parameters now include type annotations and context
• Example: get_season_episode_count() now has full parameter and return documentation

Impact: Improved code discoverability and maintainability ✅

Files Modified

1. Created: src/core/error_handler.py (100 lines)

   • New module for error handling infrastructure
   • Provides recovery strategies and custom exceptions

2. Modified: src/core/providers/streaming/Provider.py

   • Added proper type hints
   • Enhanced documentation

3. Modified: src/core/providers/streaming/voe.py

   • Method naming: GetLink → get_link
   • Parameter naming: embededLink → embedded_link, etc.
   • Return type: now returns tuple instead of just string
   • Added type hints throughout

4. Modified: src/core/providers/streaming/doodstream.py

   • Method naming: GetLink → get_link
   • Parameter naming consistency
   • Return type: now returns tuple with headers
   • Added type hints and docstrings

5. Modified: src/server/fastapi_app.py

   • CORS configuration now environment-based
   • Added security warning comment
   • Uses settings.cors_origins for configuration

6. Modified: src/core/providers/base_provider.py

   • Added comprehensive type hints to all abstract methods
   • Enhanced docstrings with parameter descriptions
   • Added Optional and Callable type imports

7. Modified: src/core/providers/aniworld_provider.py

   • Updated GetLink call → get_link

8. Modified: src/core/providers/enhanced_provider.py

   • Updated GetLink call → get_link
   • Fixed import to use new error_handler module

Test Results

All tests passing after changes:

• ✅ Unit tests: PASS
• ✅ Integration tests: PASS
• ✅ API tests: PASS
• ✅ No regressions detected

Remaining Quality Issues (For Future Work)

See QualityTODO.md for comprehensive list. Priority items:

High Priority:

• Sort imports with isort in CLI and provider modules
• Add type hints to CLI methods (search, get_user_selection, etc.)
• Remove duplicate SeriesApp class from CLI

Medium Priority:

• Rate limiter memory leak cleanup
• Database query optimization (N+1 problems)
• String operation efficiency improvements

Low Priority:

• Performance profiling and optimization
• Additional security hardening
• Extended documentation

Code Quality Standards Applied

✅ PEP 8 Compliance:

• Type hints on all modified method signatures
• Proper spacing between methods and classes
• Line length compliance

✅ PEP 257 Compliance:

• Comprehensive docstrings on abstract methods
• Parameter documentation
• Return type documentation

✅ Security:

• CORS properly configured
• Error handling infrastructure in place
• Input validation patterns established

✅ Performance:

• No blocking changes
• Efficient error recovery mechanisms
• Proper use of async patterns

Validation Checklist

• No syntax errors
• All imports resolve correctly
• Type hints are valid
• All tests pass
• No regressions
• Security improvements applied
• Documentation enhanced

Next Steps Recommended

1. Run isort on remaining files to standardize imports
2. Add type hints to CLI module methods
3. Implement periodic cleanup for rate limiter
4. Add database query optimization
5. Profile performance under load
