# Suggested Improvements to common/components.py
|
|
|
|
## Completed
|
|
|
|
### Caching on template rendering
|
|
- Added `functools.lru_cache` on `_render_cached()` wrapper around `render_to_string`
|
|
- Cache key: `(template_path, json.dumps(context, sort_keys=True))` — deterministic and unique
|
|
- `maxsize=4096` in production, disabled entirely in DEBUG mode (so template changes are reflected immediately)
|
|
- Only caches `template` path calls; `tag_name` calls are already nanosecond string ops
|
|
- Verified working: identical calls return identical output, different inputs produce separate cache entries
|
|
|
|
### Non-deterministic IDs
|
|
`randomid()` was replaced with `hashlib.sha1(content_hash.encode()).hexdigest()[:10]` for deterministic ID generation.
|
|
- `Popover()` passes content hash (`wrapped_content:popover_content:wrapped_classes`) so IDs are deterministic per unique content
|
|
- `games/templatetags/randomid.py` uses the same hash-based approach
|
|
- Fixes: caching (Popover output now cacheable), page consistency, thread safety
|
|
|
|
### 1. Inconsistent return types (completed)
|
|
All component functions now return `SafeText` and are annotated accordingly. Redundant `mark_safe()` wrappers removed from `LinkedPurchase()` and `NameWithIcon()`.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Fragile A() URL resolution
|
|
Tries `reverse(url)` first, then falls back to literal string. Uses `type(url) is str`
|
|
instead of `isinstance()`. Intentional but error-prone — a string matching a URL name
|
|
will be reversed, while one that doesn't pass through as-is.
|
|
|
|
**Fix**: Add explicit parameter like `url_name="view_game"` vs `href="/literal/path"`.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Toast XSS vulnerability
|
|
Custom string escaping for Alpine.js interpolation:
|
|
```python
|
|
safe_message = message.replace("\\", "\\\\").replace("`", "\\`")
|
|
```
|
|
Doesn't protect against all injection vectors (e.g., `})` could close the
|
|
Alpine expression early).
|
|
|
|
**Fix**: Use proper HTML escaping + JSON serialization for safe template interpolation.
|
|
|
|
### 4. No tests
|
|
Zero test coverage for the entire component system.
|
|
|
|
**Fix**: Add unit tests for each component function — basic rendering, edge cases,
|
|
and cache hit/miss verification.
|
|
|
|
### 5. Default mutable arguments
|
|
`attributes: list[HTMLAttribute] = []` is a classic Python gotcha (though harmless
|
|
here since the list is only read, never mutated in place).
|
|
|
|
**Fix**: Use `attributes: list[HTMLAttribute] | None = None` and convert to `[]`
|
|
inside the function body.
