π― What Each Feature Does
1. Project Scanning
Checks for:
- Missing package.json, README, Dockerfile
- Dependency issues
- Documentation gaps
Output: GitHub issue with findings and recommendations
2. Documentation Generation
Generates:
- Project overview and structure explanation
- File-specific documentation
- Comprehensive README files
Example Output:
# Project Name
## Overview
This Node.js application provides...
## Architecture
- server.js: Express application entry point
- services/: Business logic layer
- agents/: AI-powered workers
- api/: REST endpoints
3. Chat Interface
Capabilities:
- Ask questions about the project
- Get code explanations
- Receive recommendations
- Interactive conversation
Example:
User: "What does the scanner agent do?"
AI: "The scanner agent periodically analyzes your project..."
π Pre-Deployment Checklist
GitHub Setup
- Repository created: https://github.com/NLarchive/my-webapp-hf
- Main branch protection configured
- Secrets configured (HF_TOKEN, HF_USERNAME, etc.)
HF Spaces Setup
- Space created with Docker SDK
- Secrets added to space settings
- Dockerfile properly configured
API Keys & Credentials
- GEMINI_API_KEY obtained
- GitHub App created (or token generated)
- HF token configured
- All base64 encoding completed
Local Testing
- npm install successful
- Local server starts on port 7860
- Health endpoint responds
- Docker build succeeds
Final Validation
- All documentation is accurate
- Test suite passes locally
- No hardcoded secrets in code
- Error handling is comprehensive
π§ͺ Testing Scenarios
Scenario 1: Auto-Documentation
Steps:
- Navigate to deployed space
- Call
/api/docs/projectendpoint - Receive generated documentation
Expected: Professional documentation with project overview
Scenario 2: Issue Detection
Steps:
- Call
/api/scanner/scanendpoint - Wait for analysis to complete
- Check GitHub for created issue
Expected: Issue with findings and recommendations
Scenario 3: Chat Assistance
Steps:
- Open web UI
- Type question about project
- Get AI response
Expected: Relevant, helpful response from Gemini AI
Scenario 4: Periodic Scanning
Setup: ENABLE_AUTO_FIX=true
Expected: Automatic scans every hour, GitHub issues created
π Security Considerations
Protected Secrets
- Never commit
.envfiles - Use GitHub Secrets for credentials
- Base64 encode private keys
- Rotate keys periodically
GitHub App Advantages
- Limited scope (this repository only)
- Better audit trail
- Automatic token expiration
- Fine-grained permissions
Environment Isolation
- Production: HF Spaces environment variables
- Development: Local
.envfile (not committed) - CI/CD: GitHub Actions secrets
π Future Enhancements
Phase 2
- Webhook handling for real-time events
- Auto-fix implementation (create PRs)
- Code review suggestions
- Performance optimization
Phase 3
- Multi-repo support
- Custom analysis rules
- Integration with more AI models
- Advanced analytics dashboard
Phase 4
- Team collaboration features
- Scheduled reports
- Slack/Discord integration
- API rate limiting
π Support & Troubleshooting
Common Issues
Server won't start
- Check GEMINI_API_KEY is set
- Verify GitHub auth configuration
- Check port 7860 isn't in use
Chat API returns error
- Verify GEMINI_API_KEY is valid
- Check API quota
- Review error logs
GitHub integration fails
- Verify GitHub App ID and installation ID
- Check private key is properly base64 encoded
- Ensure app is installed on repository
See TESTING.md for detailed troubleshooting.
