Refactor CheckForUpdates

[JassonCordones]

Split into logically named helper functions:

• readLastCheckTime
• shouldCheckForUpdate
• checkAndNotifyUpdate
• fetchLatestRelease
• notifyUpdateAvailable

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Refactor
  • Improved the update check process for better clarity and modularity. The logic for checking and notifying about updates is now more organized and maintainable. No changes to user-facing functionality.

Walkthrough

The CheckForUpdates functionality in src/cmd/main.go was refactored for improved modularity and clarity. The original, large function was split into several smaller functions, each handling a specific task such as reading the last check time, determining if an update check is needed, performing the HTTP request, and notifying the user. Error handling was centralized within these new functions, and the notification logic was extracted for better organization. The overall logic and workflow remain unchanged.

Changes

File(s)	Change Summary
src/cmd/main.go	Refactored CheckForUpdates into smaller functions: readLastCheckTime, shouldCheckForUpdate, checkAndNotifyUpdate, fetchLatestRelease, and notifyUpdateAvailable. Centralized error handling and extracted notification logic. Maintained original update check flow.

Poem

In the warren of code, we split and we mend,
Each function now tidy, with clear start and end.
From update checks hopping, to messages bright,
Our logic more nimble, our future more light.
With carrots of clarity, and bugs on the run—
This bunny approves what the coders have done! 🥕

Tip

⚡️ Faster reviews with caching

• CodeRabbit now supports caching for code and dependencies, helping speed up reviews. This means quicker feedback, reduced wait times, and a smoother review experience overall. Cached data is encrypted and stored securely. This feature will be automatically enabled for all accounts on May 16th. To opt out, configure Review - Disable Cache at either the organization or repository level. If you prefer to disable all data retention across your organization, simply turn off the Data Retention setting under your Organization Settings.

Enjoy the performance boost—your workflow just got faster.

252-253: ⚠️ Potential issue

Fix the reference to the configuration object to avoid build failure.

The code is referencing commonConfig which is undefined, causing build and test failures. You should use the already imported common.Config object.

func CheckForUpdates(){
-	if !commonConfig.AutoCheckUpdate{
+	if !common.Config.AutoCheckUpdate{

src/cmd/main.go (4)

268-281: The readLastCheckTime implementation looks good.

This helper function correctly handles error cases and properly formats time values, improving the readability of the main function.

---

283-285: Clean implementation of update check logic.

This function clearly encapsulates the decision logic for when to perform the update check.

---

315-321: The fetchLatestRelease implementation is clean and focused.

This function properly handles HTTP requests with context and has good error handling.

---

323-335: Nice formatting of the notification message.

The notification message is well-formatted using lipgloss styles, which improves user experience.

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)

src/cmd/main.go (3)

304-306: Consider moving the GitHubRelease type definition outside the function.

For better code organization and reusability, consider moving this type definition to the package level or a separate models package:

+// GitHubRelease represents the GitHub API response for release information
+type GitHubRelease struct {
+	TagName string `json:"tag_name"`
+}
+
 func checkAndNotifyUpdate() {
     // ... existing code ...
-    type GitHubRelease struct {
-        TagName string `json:"tag_name"`
-    }

This would allow other functions to reuse this type if needed in the future.

---

327-339: Well-formatted notification with clear visual styling.

The notification implementation is visually appealing and clearly communicates the update availability to users.

Consider adding a conditional check for silent mode or quiet mode (if your application supports it) to avoid printing notifications in non-interactive contexts.

---

249-339: Overall excellent refactoring that improves code maintainability.

The refactoring of the CheckForUpdates functionality has successfully broken down a monolithic function into smaller, focused helper functions. Each function has a clear responsibility, making the code easier to understand and maintain.

Benefits of this refactoring:

1. Improved readability through smaller, focused functions
2. Better error handling with appropriate logging
3. Clear separation of concerns
4. Easier testing of individual components
5. More descriptive function names that document their purpose

Please fix the formatting issues by running go fmt ./... to resolve the pipeline failures.

283-285: Good implementation of the update check condition.

This short, focused helper function clearly expresses the condition for when an update check should occur. It's a good example of the single responsibility principle.

---

287-317: Well-structured update check with proper error handling.

The function effectively:

1. Creates a timeout context (good practice for HTTP requests)
2. Uses dedicated helper functions for different concerns
3. Has proper error handling with helpful log messages
4. Correctly defines and parses the GitHub API response

This is a significant improvement over a monolithic implementation.

---

319-325: Good separation of HTTP request logic.

Extracting the HTTP request logic into a separate function improves testability and makes the code more modular. It also follows the single responsibility principle.

[lazysegtree]

This looks good. @JassonCordones Thanks for this.

[lazysegtree]

Also please squash all the comments for fixes in one commit. Prefer a descriptive message like fix : review comments, formatting issues, typos, etc
