Enhance Docstrings for ProjectX Client Modules

[TexasCoding]

This pull request updates the docstrings for multiple modules within the ProjectX client to provide comprehensive overviews, key features, detailed usage examples, and related references. The following modules have been modified:

1. auth.py: Expanded the docstring to cover authentication lifecycle, including API key login, JWT token management, multi-account support, and error handling with examples.
2. base.py: Revised the docstring describing the base client structure, context management, mixin composition, and API rate limiting features.
3. cache.py: Updated to reflect the in-memory caching mechanism for market data, including TTL management, performance metrics, and usage examples.
4. http.py: Enhanced to detail the async HTTP/2 client features, error mappings, and token refresh logic.
5. market_data.py: Improved to explain instrument searching, contract selection, historical data retrieval, and caching utilities.
6. trading.py: Elaborated on async trading queries for positions and trade history, integrating session management and typed results.

These enhancements aim to improve the clarity and usability of the documentation for developers utilizing these modules.

Code Review: Docstring Enhancements ✅

I've completed a comprehensive review of this pull request that enhances docstrings across 6 ProjectX client modules. Here's my detailed analysis:

Review Tasks

• Read and analyze auth.py docstring changes
• Read and analyze base.py docstring changes
• Read and analyze cache.py docstring changes
• Read and analyze http.py docstring changes
• Read and analyze market_data.py docstring changes
• Read and analyze trading.py docstring changes
• Evaluate overall documentation quality and consistency
• Check for code quality, potential issues, and best practices
• Provide comprehensive review feedback

Review Findings

✅ Strengths

1. Comprehensive Documentation Structure

• All modules follow a consistent, well-structured format with clear sections
• Excellent use of hierarchical organization (Key Features → Usage Examples → Integration)
• Comprehensive coverage of each module's functionality and purpose

2. High-Quality Usage Examples

• Practical, real-world code examples throughout all modules
• Examples demonstrate async/await patterns correctly (auth.py:25-30, base.py:194-198)
• Multi-scenario examples show different use cases effectively

3. Technical Accuracy

• Docstrings accurately reflect the v2.0.4 async-first architecture
• Proper async context manager usage documented (base.py:194-198)
• Correct integration points and dependencies clearly explained

4. Performance Guidance

• Excellent documentation of caching strategies with specific TTL values (cache.py:63, market_data.py:304-307)
• Clear performance impact metrics (cache.py:25: "50-70% reduction in API calls")
• Memory management details well documented (cache.py:95-97)

⚠️ Minor Areas for Improvement

1. Code Example Assumptions
Several examples assume attribute access that may not be available:

• trading.py:98 - pos.unrealized_pnl without showing the position structure
• trading.py:159-161 - trade.contractId, trade.size, trade.price attributes without context
• market_data.py:216-218 - inst.name, inst.description attribute access without null checking

2. Error Handling in Examples
Most examples don't show error handling, which could mislead users:

# Missing error handling example
positions = await client.get_positions()
for pos in positions:
    # Could raise AttributeError if position data incomplete
    print(f"{pos.symbol}: {pos.quantity} @ {pos.price}")

3. Import Statements
Some examples reference classes/functions without showing imports:

• base.py:255-256 references json.JSONDecodeError without import
• trading.py:154-156 references datetime and timedelta without import statement

🔍 Technical Review

1. Authentication Security (auth.py)

• Good security considerations documented (lines 114-192)
• Proper JWT token lifecycle management described (lines 131-146)
• No security issues identified in the documentation

2. HTTP Client Implementation (http.py)

• Excellent error mapping documentation (lines 199-258)
• Retry logic clearly explained with specific parameters (lines 128, 216-226)
• HTTP/2 benefits well documented (lines 107-117)

3. Caching Strategy (cache.py)

• Intelligent TTL values documented with rationale (line 63)
• Memory management boundaries clearly defined (lines 95-97)
• Thread safety considerations mentioned appropriately

🧪 Test Coverage Considerations

The docstrings reference functionality that should be thoroughly tested:

• Authentication token refresh cycles (auth.py:77-90)
• Cache invalidation and TTL behavior (cache.py:69-98)
• HTTP retry logic with various error scenarios (http.py:128, 216-226)
• Multi-account switching workflows (auth.py:162-182)

📊 Overall Assessment

This is an excellent enhancement to the codebase documentation. The docstrings significantly improve developer experience by providing:

• Clear architectural overview of the mixin-based design
• Comprehensive usage examples for common scenarios
• Performance optimization guidance with specific metrics
• Integration patterns with other components

The documentation quality is enterprise-grade and follows Python documentation best practices. The async-first architecture is properly represented throughout.

🎯 Recommendations

1. Add defensive programming examples - Show error handling and null checking in code samples
2. Include import statements - Add necessary imports to make examples copy-pastable
3. Add validation examples - Show input validation patterns for the API methods
4. Consider adding docstring examples for edge cases - Empty responses, network failures, etc.

Verdict: ✅ APPROVE

This PR significantly enhances the codebase's documentation quality without introducing any functional changes. The improvements will greatly benefit developers using the ProjectX SDK. The docstrings are well-structured, technically accurate, and provide excellent guidance for both new and experienced users.
