Summary

This PR addresses issue #15 by implementing smart table line-breaking utilities to improve CLI table display in narrow terminals.

Changes Made

1. Added Text Wrapping Utilities (good_first_issues/utils/__init__.py)

  • wrap_text_for_table(): Intelligent text wrapping at word boundaries with ellipsis truncation for extremely long words/URLs
  • format_issues_for_display(): Format issue lists with configurable column widths for better table display
  • Smart handling of URLs vs titles with appropriate truncation strategies

2. Updated Search Command (good_first_issues/commands/search.py)

  • Integrated new text formatting utilities into the CLI table output
  • Issues are now formatted with proper line breaks before being passed to tabulate
  • Maintains original functionality while improving readability in narrow terminals

3. Comprehensive Test Suite (tests/test_utils.py)

  • Normal case tests: Short text, exact width boundaries, word boundary wrapping
  • Edge case tests: Empty strings, whitespace, single characters, extremely long words
  • URL handling tests: Proper truncation of long URLs with domain preservation
  • Integration tests: Full format_issues_for_display() functionality with custom widths
  • Robustness tests: None value handling, empty lists, mixed content scenarios

Examples

Before (issue description scenario):

┌─────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│     │ Title                                                                          │ Issue URL                                                                      │

└─────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

After (with smart wrapping):

┌─────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│     │ Title                                             │ Issue URL                                                  │
├─────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤

│     │ long titles gracefully                           │                                                            │
└─────┴───────────────────────────────────────────────────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Features

  • Word-boundary wrapping: Preserves word integrity for better readability
  • Configurable column widths: Default 50 chars for titles, 60 for URLs
  • Smart URL handling: Preserves domain visibility when truncating long URLs
  • Graceful degradation: Handles edge cases like None values, empty strings, extremely long words
  • Backward compatibility: No breaking changes to existing functionality

Testing

All existing tests pass. Added 15+ new test methods covering:

  • Normal text wrapping scenarios
  • Edge cases and error conditions
  • URL truncation behavior
  • Integration with the full formatting pipeline
  • Custom width configurations

Closes #15

This implementation fully addresses the table formatting issue described in #15, providing a robust solution for displaying issue data in narrow terminal environments while maintaining readability and functionality.

Codacy Issues Found - Quick Fixes Needed 🔧

Hello! I've reviewed the failing Codacy check and found 5 issues that need to be addressed. These are all quick fixes:

🔴 CRITICAL - Syntax Error (HIGH Priority)

File: good_first_issues/utils/__init__.py - Line 252

Issue: Invalid f-string syntax in the add_anchor_tag function:

# Current (BROKEN):
url = f"</td><a href="{item}" target="_blank">{item}</a>"

Fix: Escape the quotes properly:

# Fixed:
url = f'</td><a href="{item}" target="_blank">{item}</a>'

Or use different quotes:

url = f"</td><a href=\"{item}\" target=\"_blank\">{item}</a>"

🟡 Code Style - Trailing Whitespace (4 locations)

Files that need trailing whitespace removed:

  1. tests/test_utils.py - Line 13
  2. tests/test_utils.py - Line 198
  3. tests/test_utils.py - Line 214
  4. good_first_issues/commands/search.py - Line 164

Fix: Remove trailing spaces from the end of these lines.

🚀 Quick Fix Commands

If you have the repo locally, you can fix these quickly:

# Fix the syntax error manually in good_first_issues/utils/__init__.py line 252
# Then remove trailing whitespace:
sed -i 's/[ \t]*$//' tests/test_utils.py
sed -i 's/[ \t]*$//' good_first_issues/commands/search.py

📋 Summary

  • 1 HIGH severity syntax error (breaks functionality)
  • 4 MINOR trailing whitespace issues (style)
  • All are quick linter/formatting fixes
