Phase 2: ES6 Code Quality Enhancements + Modern Tooling #464

theturtle32 · 2025-06-12T22:11:28Z

Summary

Complete Phase 2 ES6 code quality enhancements across all library files
Modernize development tooling from JSHint/gulp to ESLint/npm scripts
Standardize codebase formatting with consistent 2-space indentation

Code Quality Improvements

Template literals: Replaced string concatenation throughout codebase for better readability
Arrow functions: Converted appropriate callbacks and event handlers to modern syntax
Destructuring: Simplified object property extraction in multiple locations
Default parameters: Cleaned up manual parameter validation and defaults
Object literal enhancements: Applied shorthand property syntax where applicable

Tooling Modernization

ESLint: Replaced outdated JSHint with modern ESLint configuration supporting ES6+
npm scripts: Removed gulp dependency and moved to direct npm script commands
Code formatting: Auto-formatted entire codebase to consistent 2-space indentation
New commands: Added npm run lint, npm run lint:fix, and npm run check

Test Results

✅ All existing tests continue to pass
✅ No breaking changes to public API
✅ Maintains Node.js 4.x+ compatibility

Summary of Changes

Hello @theturtle32, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request represents 'Phase 2' of a larger ES6 refactoring effort. It significantly modernizes the codebase by adopting various ES6 language features for improved readability and maintainability. Concurrently, it updates the development workflow by replacing JSHint and Gulp with ESLint and npm scripts, standardizing code formatting across all files. A key structural change includes converting the WebSocketConnection to use ES6 class syntax.

Highlights

Tooling Modernization: Replaced the old JSHint/Gulp setup with modern ESLint and npm scripts for linting and development tasks. New commands npm run lint, npm run lint:fix, and npm run check are available.
ES6 Code Quality: Applied various ES6 features across the codebase, including const/let for variable declarations, template literals for string formatting, arrow functions for callbacks, destructuring, default parameters, and object literal enhancements.
Code Formatting Standard: Standardized the entire codebase to use consistent 2-space indentation, enforced by the new ESLint configuration.
WebSocketConnection Class Conversion: Refactored the core WebSocketConnection from a prototype-based constructor to modern ES6 class syntax.
Refactoring Plan Document: Added a new markdown document (ES6_REFACTORING_PLAN.md) outlining the multi-phase plan for ES6 adoption, detailing completed and remaining work.

Code Review

This pull request successfully modernizes the codebase by migrating from JSHint/gulp to ESLint/npm scripts and applying various ES6 features like const/let, arrow functions, template literals, and destructuring. The changes align well with the stated goals of Phase 2 refactoring. Several instances of var can be replaced with const or let for improved clarity and scope management, particularly in test scripts. Additionally, some traditional function expressions in callbacks within test scripts could be converted to arrow functions for consistency with other refactored code. The documentation in CLAUDE.md should be updated to reflect the new linting command and indentation style.

+## Coding Style
+- Use tabs for indentation


The coding style guide mentions using tabs for indentation, but the .eslintrc.js file added in this PR enforces 2-space indentation. Please update the documentation to reflect the new standard.

Suggested change

- Use tabs for indentation

- Use 2 spaces for indentation

lib/W3CWebSocket.js


 function createCloseEvent(code, reason) {
-    var event = new yaeti.Event('close');
+  var event = new yaeti.Event('close');


This variable event is reassigned later in the function. It should be declared with let instead of var for proper block scoping.

Suggested change

var event = new yaeti.Event('close');

let event = new yaeti.Event('close');
