The base64 decoding is repeated for each field. This is a violation of the DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principle. Consider creating a helper function to handle the base64 decoding. This would make the code cleaner and easier to maintain. Here is an example of how you could do this:
Then you can use this function to decode each field:

@coderabbitai, that would result in more code as you still have to check the error of your function.

@madflojo, you're correct that the error still needs to be checked after each function call. However, the proposed helper function
decodeBase64
encapsulates the base64 decoding logic, making the main function cleaner and more readable.While it might seem like more code at first glance, it actually simplifies the process of decoding and error handling. It also adheres to the DRY principle, which is a best practice in software development. This principle reduces the chance of bugs and makes the code easier to maintain.
Here's how you could handle the errors with the helper function:
This way, the base64 decoding and error handling logic is clear and consistent across all fields.

The
Handler
function is well-structured and follows a logical flow. It first checks the cache for the requested data, then queries the database if the data is not found in the cache. It also handles errors appropriately and returns meaningful error messages. However, the function could be refactored to improve readability and maintainability. Consider breaking down the function into smaller, more manageable functions. For example, you could have separate functions for parsing the request, checking the cache, querying the database, and building the response. This would make the code easier to read and maintain, and it would also make it easier to test individual components of the function.There was a problem hiding this comment.

This is fair.

@madflojo I'm glad you found the feedback helpful. Here's a possible way to refactor the
Handler
function:Parse Request Function: This function will take the payload as input and return the
local_code
. It will handle the case wherelocal_code
is not provided and return an appropriate error.Check Cache Function: This function will take the
local_code
as input and return the cached data if it exists. If the data is not in the cache, it will return a specific error indicating that the data was not found in the cache.Query Database Function: This function will take the
local_code
as input and return the data from the database. It will handle any errors that occur during the database query.Build Response Function: This function will take the database data as input and return a response. It will handle the base64 decoding and the creation of the JSON response.
Set Cache Function: This function will take the
local_code
and the JSON response as input and add the data to the cache. It will handle any errors that occur during this process.By breaking down the
Handler
function into these smaller functions, the code will be easier to read and maintain. Each function will have a single responsibility, making it easier to understand what each part of the code is doing. Additionally, this will make it easier to write tests for each individual function, improving the overall test coverage and reliability of your code.Let me know if you need further clarification or assistance with this refactoring process.
