Summary

Quality: Unimplemented stub methods in Channel class

Problem

Severity: Medium | File: src/api/box-edit/Channel.js:L51

The sendCommand, sendRequest, and getComServerStatus methods in the Channel class return Promise.resolve('TODO') and the destroy method is empty. This indicates incomplete implementation which can lead to unexpected behavior if these methods are called in production environments.

Solution

Implement the logic for these methods or throw a NotImplementedError to prevent accidental usage of incomplete functionality.

Changes

  • src/api/box-edit/Channel.js (modified)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Unimplemented API operations now report clear errors instead of returning placeholder results.
    • Improved error handling for command sending, request sending, and communication server status checks.

The `sendCommand`, `sendRequest`, and `getComServerStatus` methods in the `Channel` class return `Promise.resolve('TODO')` and the `destroy` method is empty. This indicates incomplete implementation which can lead to unexpected behavior if these methods are called in production environments.

Walkthrough

Channel now rejects calls to three unimplemented API methods with method-specific errors instead of resolving with a "TODO" placeholder.

Poem

I’m a bunny hopping near,
Three clear errors now appear.
No more “TODO” in the burrow,
Promises reject without sorrow.
Thump, thump—clean intent is here!
