Walkthrough

The changes refactor several file system operations from synchronous to asynchronous across multiple modules, updating method signatures and internal logic accordingly. Additionally, there are improvements to resource cleanup and optimization of data transformation in query result handling. No changes were made to public API signatures except for marking affected methods as async.

src/webview_provider/queryResultPanel.ts (1)

421-430: Excellent performance optimization for large datasets!

This optimization effectively addresses the 94% speed improvement goal mentioned in the PR objectives. The changes implement several key performance improvements:

  1. Pre-allocation: new Array(result.table.rows.length) eliminates dynamic array resizing overhead
  2. Direct assignment: Replacing object spreading with direct property assignment (row[columnName] = value) is significantly more efficient
  3. Loop optimization: Traditional for loops typically outperform forEach for large datasets

The logic correctly maintains the transformation from compressed array format to dictionary objects while dramatically improving performance for large result sets.

src/comment_provider/conversationProvider.ts (1)

702-706: LGTM! Proper timer cleanup prevents memory leak.

The implementation correctly clears any active polling timer before disposing of other resources, which prevents potential memory leaks in long-running sessions.

src/services/dbtTestService.ts (3)

15-15: Good async conversion in import statement.

Correctly imports the asynchronous readFile from fs/promises to support non-blocking file operations.


85-85: Correct async method signature update.

The method signature properly reflects the asynchronous nature of the file read operation, maintaining consistency with the broader async conversion pattern in this PR.


123-125: Well-implemented async file read operation.

The file read operation correctly uses await with the asynchronous readFile function, preventing UI blocking while maintaining the same functionality.

src/webview_provider/newDocsGenPanel.ts (4)

1-1: Appropriate async import for non-blocking operations.

The import correctly uses readFile from fs/promises to support asynchronous file operations.


98-98: Proper async method signature.

The method signature correctly reflects the asynchronous operations performed within the method.


110-111: Correct async file read implementation.

The file read operation properly uses await with the asynchronous readFile function, preventing blocking operations.


112-112: Well-coordinated async service calls.

The calls to dbtTestService.getConfigByTest correctly use await to handle the asynchronous service method, maintaining proper async flow throughout the call chain.

Also applies to: 169-169

src/dbt_client/dbtCoreIntegration.ts (4)

43-44: Well-separated sync and async imports.

The imports correctly distinguish between synchronous file existence checks (existsSync) and asynchronous file reading (readFile), following best practices for mixed sync/async file operations.


151-154: Appropriate async method signature update.

The method signature correctly reflects the asynchronous nature of the file read operation by returning Promise<string>.


160-161: Proper async file read implementation.

The file read operation correctly uses await with the asynchronous readFile function, preventing blocking operations while maintaining the same encoding and functionality.


207-214: Excellent async coordination with Promise.all.

The implementation correctly uses Promise.all to handle multiple asynchronous calls efficiently, allowing concurrent execution while maintaining proper error handling.

src/webview_provider/docsEditPanel.ts (6)

1-2: Well-organized async/sync import separation.

The imports correctly separate synchronous file existence checks (existsSync) from asynchronous file operations (readFile, writeFile), following best practices for mixed file operations.


223-223: Proper async implementation for webview rendering.

The renderWebviewView method correctly implements asynchronous behavior by awaiting the HTML content generation, preventing blocking during file read operations.

Also applies to: 227-229


429-429: Correct async conversion for column name processing.

The convertColumnNamesByCaseConfig method properly implements asynchronous file reading with correct encoding specification, maintaining non-blocking behavior.

Also applies to: 444-447


512-512: Well-coordinated async method call.

The call to convertColumnNamesByCaseConfig correctly uses await to handle the asynchronous method, maintaining proper async flow in the processing pipeline.


655-655: Excellent async file operations implementation.

The file write and read operations correctly use await with asynchronous functions, preventing UI blocking during documentation saving operations which can be I/O intensive.

Also applies to: 658-658, 758-758


838-838: Proper async HTML content generation.

The getHtml function correctly implements asynchronous file reading for HTML content generation, ensuring non-blocking webview initialization.

Also applies to: 850-851
