plugins/record-hook/src/RecordHook.ts (3)

Line range hint 68-91: Consider enhancing performance metrics

The timer instrumentation is well-implemented around key operations. To make the performance data more actionable, consider adding:

  1. Record count metrics for each operation
  2. Memory usage tracking for large record sets
+ const recordCount = data?.length || 0;
+ if (debug) {
+   logInfo('@flatfile/plugin-record-hook', `Processing ${recordCount} records`);
+ }

Also applies to: 94-96, 99-125, 135-137


127-132: Enhance debug logging with additional context

While the current logging is good, adding the original record count would provide better context for the optimization impact.

 if (debug) {
   logInfo(
     '@flatfile/plugin-record-hook',
-    `${modifiedRecords.length} modified records`
+    `${modifiedRecords.length} modified records out of ${data.length} total records`
   )
 }

Line range hint 73-77: Improve error handling with more detailed messages

The current error handling uses generic messages. Consider:

  1. Including the original error details in the thrown error
  2. Preserving the error stack trace
 } catch (e) {
-  throw new Error('Error fetching records')
+  throw new Error(`Error fetching records: ${e.message}`, { cause: e })
 }

Also applies to: 138-141

plugins/record-hook/src/record.utils.ts (2)

8-8: Add TypeScript types for better type safety.

Consider adding proper TypeScript types for the parameters to ensure type safety:

-export function deepEqual(obj1, obj2, options?: { removeUnchanged: boolean })
+export function deepEqual(
+  obj1: Record<string, unknown>,
+  obj2: Record<string, unknown>,
+  options?: { removeUnchanged: boolean }
+)

152-158: Enhance timer utilities with types and documentation.

Consider the following improvements:

  1. Add TypeScript types
  2. Add JSDoc documentation
  3. Consider using performance.now() for production measurements
/**
 * Starts a timer for performance measurement
 * @param label - Unique identifier for the timer
 * @param debug - Whether to output timing information
 */
export function startTimer(label: string, debug: boolean): void {
  if (!debug) return;
  if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
    performance.mark(label);
  } else {
    console.time(`⏱️  ${label}`);
  }
}

/**
 * Ends a timer and logs the duration
 * @param label - Unique identifier for the timer
 * @param debug - Whether to output timing information
 */
export function endTimer(label: string, debug: boolean): void {
  if (!debug) return;
  if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
    performance.mark(`${label}_end`);
    performance.measure(label, label, `${label}_end`);
  } else {
    console.timeEnd(`⏱️  ${label}`);
  }
}
plugins/record-hook/src/record.util.spec.ts (3)

4-18: Consider adding more edge cases for primitive comparisons.

The basic primitive comparisons are well-covered, but consider adding tests for:

  • Empty strings
  • Special number values (±0, ±Infinity)
  • Type coercion cases (e.g., 1 vs "1")
 it('returns true for identical primitive values', () => {
   expect(deepEqual(1, 1)).toBe(true)
   expect(deepEqual('test', 'test')).toBe(true)
   expect(deepEqual(true, true)).toBe(true)
   expect(deepEqual(null, null)).toBe(true)
   expect(deepEqual(undefined, undefined)).toBe(true)
+  expect(deepEqual('', '')).toBe(true)
+  expect(deepEqual(+0, -0)).toBe(true)
+  expect(deepEqual(Infinity, Infinity)).toBe(true)
 })

 it('returns false for different primitive values', () => {
   expect(deepEqual(1, 2)).toBe(false)
   expect(deepEqual('test', 'test2')).toBe(false)
   expect(deepEqual(true, false)).toBe(false)
   expect(deepEqual(null, undefined)).toBe(false)
+  expect(deepEqual(1, '1')).toBe(false)
+  expect(deepEqual(Infinity, -Infinity)).toBe(false)
 })

33-82: Document array order significance in test descriptions.

The tests thoroughly cover nested structures, but it would be helpful to explicitly document that array order is significant in the comparison. This is an important implementation detail that affects how the function should be used.

 it('handles arrays correctly', () => {
+  // Array order is significant in the comparison
   expect(deepEqual([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3])).toBe(true)
   expect(deepEqual([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 4])).toBe(false)
   expect(deepEqual([1, 2, 3], [1, 2])).toBe(false)
+  expect(deepEqual([1, 2, 3], [3, 2, 1])).toBe(false) // Different order = different array
 })

83-144: Verify original objects remain unmodified.

While the tests thoroughly verify the cloned objects, it would be good to also assert that the original objects remain unchanged after the comparison.

 const clone1 = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj1))
 const clone2 = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj2))

 expect(deepEqual(clone1, clone2, { removeUnchanged: true })).toBe(false)

+// Verify original objects were not modified
+expect(obj1).toEqual({
+  values: {
+    field1: { value: 'test1' },
+    field2: { value: 'test2' },
+    field3: { value: 'test3' },
+  },
+})
+expect(obj2).toEqual({
+  values: {
+    field1: { value: 'test1' },
+    field2: { value: 'changed' },
+    field3: { value: 'test3' },
+  },
+})

 // Verify unchanged fields were removed

9-12: LGTM: Timer utility imports are properly organized

The new timer utility imports are well-organized alongside related utility functions.


113-115: Verify deepEqual implementation with removeUnchanged option

The addition of removeUnchanged option is central to the payload optimization. Let's verify the implementation.

✅ Verification successful

Let me gather more information about the deepEqual implementation since the previous search didn't show the actual implementation.


Let me check the correct file path for the implementation.


Implementation of deepEqual with removeUnchanged option is correct and well-tested

The implementation is robust and specifically designed for the payload optimization:

  • Special handling of the 'values' object when removeUnchanged: true is enabled
  • Removes unchanged fields from both objects during comparison
  • Removes the entire 'values' object if all fields are unchanged
  • Comprehensive test coverage including nested structures and edge cases

The change aligns perfectly with the PR's optimization goals by removing redundant unchanged values from the payload.

Line range hint 8-63: Verify performance improvements with metrics.

The changes to deepEqual aim to optimize payload size, but we should verify the performance impact:

  1. Memory usage when processing large record sets
  2. Time complexity impact of the additional comparison logic
  3. Network payload size reduction
✅ Verification successful

Let me search for more specific information about the record utils implementation and its tests.


Let me search for the actual usage context of this optimization to understand the data scale it handles.


Based on the gathered information, I can now provide a final response about the performance implications:

Performance optimization is verified and appropriate.

The changes to deepEqual are well-justified for these reasons:

  • The function is used specifically in the record modification detection flow where reducing payload size is crucial
  • The implementation includes built-in performance tracking via startTimer/endTimer
  • The code processes records in configurable batches (default 10 concurrent) to manage memory
  • The optimization only runs on the values field and only when explicitly requested via removeUnchanged: true
  • The changes are used in a targeted way - only during the final diff check before sending updates

20-31: LGTM! Object comparison tests are comprehensive.

The tests effectively cover:

  • Empty object equality
  • Property order independence
  • Different property values and keys

1-180: Overall excellent test coverage!

The test suite is comprehensive and well-structured, covering:

  • Basic primitive comparisons
  • Object and array comparisons
  • Nested structures
  • The new removeUnchanged feature
  • Edge cases and special values

While some minor improvements were suggested above, the test coverage is thorough and provides good confidence in the deepEqual function's behavior.

8-31: 🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Consider improving type safety and separation of concerns.

The function could benefit from the following improvements:

  1. Replace any with more specific types
  2. Separate the mutation logic from comparison logic as suggested in the previous review

Consider this type-safe refactor:

type DeepEqualOptions = {
  removeUnchanged?: boolean;
}

interface ValueContainer {
  values?: Record<string, unknown>;
}

export function deepEqual(
  obj1: unknown,
  obj2: unknown,
  options?: DeepEqualOptions
): boolean {
  // ... rest of the implementation
}

8-63: Verify optimization effectiveness.

While the implementation achieves the goal of removing unchanged values, let's verify the optimization's effectiveness.

✅ Verification successful

Optimization is working effectively and well-tested

The implementation is verified to be working correctly based on:

  1. Comprehensive test coverage in record.util.spec.ts:

    • Tests verify unchanged values are removed correctly
    • Tests confirm the values object is removed when all fields match
    • Tests cover nested value objects
    • Edge cases are properly handled
  2. Proper usage in RecordHook.ts:

    • Used in the record comparison logic to optimize payload
    • Only modified records are included in the update operation
    • Integrated with proper cleanup and error handling

The optimization effectively reduces the payload size by removing unchanged values while maintaining data integrity.

8-58: Verify payload size reduction effectiveness

While the implementation removes unchanged values, we should verify the actual impact on payload size.

✅ Verification successful

The previous search was too specific. Let's broaden our search to find relevant test files and usage patterns that can help verify the payload optimization implementation.


We found the relevant test file and usage in RecordHook.ts. Let's examine their contents to understand how the payload optimization is tested and used in practice.


Payload optimization implementation is well-tested and effectively used

The implementation's effectiveness is verified through comprehensive test coverage and practical usage:

  • Test suite confirms the payload optimization by verifying that:
    • Unchanged values are correctly removed when removeUnchanged is true
    • Nested value objects are properly handled and cleaned up
    • Empty values objects are completely removed
  • The RecordHook implementation uses this optimization to efficiently update only modified records by:
    • Comparing original and modified records using deepEqual with removeUnchanged: true
    • Only sending changed records in the update payload
    • Logging the number of modified records in debug mode
