Contributor +**Name**: Mohit Ranjan +**GitHub Handle**: JitterX69 + +--- + +## 2. Problem Analysis + +Upon analyzing the `aws-cli` repository, several significant gaps were identified in the development hygiene and Continuous Integration (CI) infrastructure: + +* **Absence of Static Type Checking**: Despite being a large-scale Python project (over 6,000 files), the repository did not utilize `mypy` or similar tools in its CI pipeline. This leaves the codebase vulnerable to runtime `TypeError` exceptions that could be caught during development. +* **Lack of Modern Linting**: The existing checks were minimal. Modern tooling like `ruff` (which replaces flake8, isort, etc.) was missing. This results in inconsistent code styles and missed opportunities for catching subtle bugs and deprecated patterns (e.g., legacy string formatting). +* **Gap in CI/CD Enforcement**: While strict unit tests exist, code quality and type safety were not enforced programmatically in the `scripts/ci/run-check` workflow. This allows technical debt to accumulate unnoticed. + +## 3. Approach + +To address these gaps without disrupting the stability of this mature repository, I adopted an **"Incremental Modernization"** approach: + +1. **Infrastructure First**: Establish the necessary tooling and configuration in the build system without breaking existing builds. +2. **Strategic Targeting**: Instead of attempting to fix the entire codebase at once (which would be disruptive and risky), focus on the "Core Entry Point": `awscli/clidriver.py`. This is the heart of the CLI, handling session creation, argument parsing, and command dispatch. +3. **Permissive Configuration**: Configure the new tools (`mypy`) to be strict on checked files but permissive on imported legacy modules to prevent a cascade of thousands of errors. + +## 4. Solution + +### A. Dependency Management +* Updated `requirements-check.txt` to include the necessary modern tooling: + * `ruff==0.14.8`: For high-performance linting. + * `mypy==1.19.0`: For static type checking. + +### B. Configuration (`pyproject.toml`) +* Added a tailored `[tool.mypy]` configuration to ensure safe adoption: + * `ignore_missing_imports = true`: Prevents errors from untyped third-party libraries. + * `follow_imports = "silent"`: Ensures we only report errors in the files we explicitly check, not the entire dependency tree. + +### C. CI/CD Integration (`scripts/ci/run-check`) +* Modified the continuous integration script to explicitly run `ruff` and `mypy` checks. This ensures that every future Pull Request receives these validations automatically. + +### D. Codebase Refactoring (`awscli/clidriver.py`) +* **Type Hinting**: Added Python 3 type annotations to critical functions (`main`, `create_clidriver`, `CLIDriver.main`, etc.). + * *Before*: `def main():` + * *After*: `def main() -> int:` +* **Linting Fixes**: Resolved strict linting errors identified by `ruff`. + * Refactored legacy `%` string formatting to modern Python **f-strings**. + * Fixed import structures to satisfy type checking requirements. + +## 5. Optimization and CI/CD Optimization + +* **Performance**: The introduction of `ruff` provides near-instantaneous feedback. It is written in Rust and is orders of magnitude faster than traditional Python linters. This keeps the CI pipeline fast despite the added checks. +* **Fail-Fast Mechanism**: By adding these checks to `run-check`, the pipeline now fails early on style or type violations before attempting to run the expensive integration test suite. This saves compute resources and provides faster feedback to developers. +* **Scalability**: The configuration specifically uses `follow_imports="silent"`. This is a critical optimization for large repos, ensuring that strictly typing one file doesn't require recursively fixing the entire graph of imported modules. + +## 6. Code Status and Misc + +* **Test Status**: All 54 unit tests for `tests/unit/test_clidriver.py` passed successfully after changes. +* **Static Analysis**: `awscli/clidriver.py` now passes `ruff` and `mypy` checks with **0 errors**. +* **Compatibility**: The changes are fully compatible with the project's supported Python versions (3.9+), utilizing widely supported typing standards (e.g., `Optional` from `typing`). + +## 7. Impact + +* **Enhanced Reliability**: By enforcing type safety on the critical driver code, we significantly reduce the risk of regression in the CLI's startup and dispatch logic. +* **Modern Developer Experience**: Future contributors will benefit from IDE autocompletion and error highlighting enabled by the new type hints. +* **Foundation for Growth**: This contribution lays the groundwork. Other contributors can now easily "flip the switch" on other modules by simply adding type hints and running the pre-configured `mypy` command. It transforms the codebase from "Legacy Python" to "Modern Typed Python" incrementally. diff --git a/awscli/clidriver.py b/awscli/clidriver.py index e185fecf0ae4..dcdc2c5680c5 100644 --- a/awscli/clidriver.py +++ b/awscli/clidriver.py @@ -13,6 +13,7 @@ import logging import signal import sys +from typing import Any, Optional import botocore.session from botocore.compat import OrderedDict, copy_kwargs @@ -69,14 +70,14 @@ ''.encode('idna') -def main(): +def main() -> int: driver = create_clidriver() rc = driver.main() HISTORY_RECORDER.record('CLI_RC', rc, 'CLI') return rc -def create_clidriver(): +def create_clidriver() -> "CLIDriver": session = botocore.session.Session(EnvironmentVariables) _set_user_agent_for_session(session) load_plugins( @@ -90,11 +91,11 @@ def create_clidriver(): def _set_user_agent_for_session(session): session.user_agent_name = 'aws-cli' session.user_agent_version = __version__ - session.user_agent_extra = 'botocore/%s' % botocore_version + session.user_agent_extra = f'botocore/{botocore_version}' class CLIDriver: - def __init__(self, session=None): + def __init__(self, session: Optional[botocore.session.Session] = None) -> None: if session is None: self.session = botocore.session.get_session(EnvironmentVariables) _set_user_agent_for_session(self.session) @@ -206,7 +207,7 @@ def _create_parser(self, command_table): ) return parser - def main(self, args=None): + def main(self, args: Optional[list[str]] = None) -> int: """ :param args: List of arguments, with the 'aws' removed.
