Documentation and Comment Cleanup Summary

Overview

This document summarizes the work completed to identify and update outdated code comments, documentation, and test reviews following the Aletheia fork from Radarr.

Scope

The task was to:

1. Identify outdated code comments and documentation referencing Radarr
2. Review and update all tests for applicability to the Aletheia fork
3. Make minimal, surgical changes to update documentation while preserving functionality

Changes Made

Package Metadata (1 file)

package.json

• Updated name: "radarr" → "aletheia"
• Updated description: Reflects all-in-one media manager for movies, books, audiobooks
• Updated repository: Points to cheir-mneme/aletheia
• Updated author: "Team Radarr" → "cheir-mneme"

API Documentation (1 file)

src/NzbDrone.Host/Startup.cs

• Updated Swagger API title: "Radarr" → "Aletheia"
• Updated Swagger description: "Radarr API docs" → "Aletheia API docs"
• Updated license URL: github.com/Radarr/Radarr → github.com/cheir-mneme/aletheia

Code Comments (8 C# files)

Updated comments in these files to reference Aletheia appropriately:

1. MediaCoverService.cs

   • "Movie isn't in Radarr yet" → "Movie isn't in Aletheia yet"
   • Also fixed typo: "circument" → "circumvent"

2. NewznabCategoryFieldOptionsConverter.cs

   • "Categories not relevant for Radarr" → "Categories not relevant for Aletheia (movies only currently)"

3. NzbgetProxy.cs

   • "Download wasn't grabbed by Radarr" → "Download wasn't grabbed by Aletheia"

4. Deluge.cs

   • "This allows Radarr to delete the torrent" → "This allows Aletheia to delete the torrent"

5. NotifiarrProxy.cs

   • "between Radarr and Notifiarr" → "between Aletheia and Notifiarr"
   • Added note: Notifiarr service still uses "Radarr Integration" naming in their UI

6. RuntimeInfo.cs

   • Added clarification: "executable not yet renamed in fork"

7. UtilityModeRouter.cs

   • "instance of Radarr already running" → "instance of Aletheia already running"

8. JoinProxy.cs

   • Added TODO comments for updating logo URLs to Aletheia logos

Test Documentation (1 new file)

docs/test-status.md Created comprehensive documentation of test suite status including:

• 34 total test files in the project
• 6 commented-out test methods identified and documented
• Analysis of why tests are commented (TV episode logic not applicable to movies)
• Test infrastructure overview (NUnit, coverage requirements)
• Recommendations for short, medium, and long-term test work
• Documentation of build dependency issue (FFMpegCore packages)

What Was NOT Changed (Intentionally)

Technical Namespaces

• C# namespaces: Remain as NzbDrone.* and Radarr.* for technical compatibility
• Test project names: Remain as Radarr.*.Test for consistency
• Frontend global: window.Radarr object retained (requires coordinated frontend/backend change)

Legitimate External References

• wiki.servarr.com/radarr: Legitimate documentation links retained
• Notifiarr "Radarr Integration": Service still uses this naming on their end
• Join notification logo URLs: Marked with TODO but not changed (need hosting)

Historical Documentation

• Migration comments: References to Radarr/Sonarr history in database migrations kept (accurate historical context)
• Commented-out tests: Left as-is with documentation (don't affect functionality)

Future Work TODO Comments

• MediaCoverController.cs: Fallback image code removal
• Sabnzbd.cs: Legacy version check removal
• These are appropriate for future cleanup, not urgent

Test Review Findings

Commented-Out Tests Analysis

Found 6 commented-out test methods across 6 files:

1. HistorySpecificationFixture.cs (5 methods) - Multi-episode history tests from TV show logic
2. MatchesFolderSpecificationFixture.cs (5 methods) - Episode/season folder matching
3. GetMovieFixture.cs (1 method) - Title parsing fallback
4. MovieStatisticsFixture.cs (1 method) - Multi-movie file handling
5. JobRepositoryFixture.cs (1 method) - Incomplete test
6. NyaaFixture.cs (1 method) - Indexer test

Test Status

• Most commented tests are for TV episode/season logic not applicable to movies
• Tests left as-is since they don't affect functionality
• Documentation added for future reference when multi-media support is added

Build Status

• Build currently fails due to FFMpegCore package access (Azure DevOps feed)
• This is a pre-existing issue unrelated to documentation changes
• Prevents running test suite until resolved

Quality Assurance

Code Review

• Completed with 1 comment addressed
• Clarified Notifiarr integration naming in comments

Security Scan

• CodeQL scan timed out (common for large repositories)
• No security risk: changes are documentation/comments only, no functional code modified

Principles Applied

• ✅ Minimal, surgical changes
• ✅ No breaking changes
• ✅ No functional code modifications
• ✅ Preserved technical compatibility
• ✅ Documented decisions and reasoning
• ✅ Added clarifying notes where original names must remain

Future Work Recommendations

Short-term

• Resolve FFMpegCore package dependency issue
• Consider hosting Aletheia logos for notification services

Medium-term

• Re-evaluate commented tests for applicability
• Add test coverage reports
• Consider whether to remove or implement commented test scenarios

Long-term

• Add book/audiobook test fixtures as features are implemented
• Update test suite for multi-media scenarios
• Consider renaming technical namespaces in a coordinated major version update

Conclusion

All outdated comments and documentation have been identified and updated where appropriate. The test suite has been reviewed and documented. Changes are minimal and surgical, preserving functionality while improving clarity about the Aletheia fork identity.
