Enhancement of Codebase Quality: Pylint Score Improvement, Documentation Updates, and Comprehensive Error Handling Mechanisms

Maxim Martyshov requested to merge 211-refactor-codebase-improve-pylint-score-enhance-documentation-and-implement-comprehensive-error-2 into main

Merge Request Description

This merge request is focused on three crucial aspects that aim to significantly enhance the quality of our codebase. Firstly, we seek to improve the Pylint score of our codebase which is indicative of the health of our code. Secondly, we plan on revising and updating our current documentation to increase its meaningfulness, readability, and ease of understanding. Lastly, we're striving to embed extensive error handling mechanisms throughout our code to ensure the robustness and resilience of our software.

Additionally, this merge request also includes an essential fix in test_main.py which now allows it to run with code coverage.

Merge Request Goal

The primary goals of this merge request are:

  1. Pylint Score Improvement: Improve the quality of our codebase, thereby enhancing the Pylint score. This requires careful refactoring of the code to ensure it adheres to the Python PEP8 guidelines.

  2. Documentation Enhancement: Update and elaborate our current documentation, explaining complex functionalities in an understandable manner. This will facilitate easier comprehension for anyone who wishes to delve into our code.

  3. Comprehensive Error Handling: Embed comprehensive error handling mechanisms within our codebase to ensure the software behaves as expected under diverse conditions, and any potential points of failure are handled gracefully.

  4. Fixing test_main.py to run with coverage: We have made necessary amendments in the test_main.py file so that it's compatible with code coverage.

These goals align with our long-term vision of maintaining a high-quality, robust, and accessible codebase. This merge request is expected to substantially improve our codebase's health and make it more resilient, user-friendly, and maintainable in the long run.

Note: All changes to the codebase have been thoroughly tested to ensure no existing functionality is broken. Developers are recommended to refer to the Pylint documentation and Python PEP8 guidelines to better understand the standards we are aiming for.
