PR Summary

Major update to the Google Maps Search extension adding Google Places API integration, AI tools, and enhanced search functionality with improved UI components.

Missing {PR_MERGE_DATE} template string in the latest CHANGELOG.md entry title ## [2.0] - 2025-03-11
launchCommand in travel-home.tsx needs to be wrapped in a try-catch block per Raycast guidelines
Since this PR has tools in package.json, it should also include ai with evals (already present)
Deeply nested navigation logic in nearby-places-search-form.tsx could be simplified to improve maintainability
Missing validation for radius input and error handling in search submission for nearby places functionality

As I mentioned in the Slack thread, could you please change the file name cases back?

Also, updating so many irrelevant files is not good for reviewers to review your code.

I appreciate your work and understanding.

chrismessina · 2025-03-13T19:51:24Z

As I mentioned in the Slack thread, could you please change the file name cases back?

I've done that in 54dd7df (#17775).

Also, updating so many irrelevant files is not good for reviewers to review your code.

Can you clarify what you mean by "irrelevant"?

LitoMore · 2025-03-13T20:18:19Z

Can you clarify what you mean by "irrelevant"?

Files or code that are not relevant to the current work content. But I just realized your current PR updated most of the code. Then it should be fine.

Sorry for confusing you, in this case I think it's reasonable to change everything to camelCase.

chrismessina · 2025-03-13T20:20:31Z

But I just realized your current PR updated most of the code. Then it should be fine.

Right — this is a major (breaking) update, integrating the Google Places API. I basically rewrote the whole thing (or at least directed Claude to do so!).

PR Summary

(updates since last review)

This PR continues to improve the Google Maps Search extension with significant code organization and error handling enhancements.

Duplicate files with different naming conventions (e.g., nearbyPlacesSearchForm.tsx and nearby-places-search-form.tsx) should be consolidated to follow kebab-case convention
Several files have inconsistent error handling - recommend standardizing on showFailureToast from @raycast/utils throughout
The default search radius in unit-conversions.ts (50km/31mi) seems unusually large and should be reduced
The getUnitSystemForApi and getTravelModeForApi functions in unit-conversions.ts use unsafe type casting to unknown
Consider adding input validation for negative numbers in unit conversion functions

Hey @chrismessina 👋

Awesome improvements! 🔥

What's going on here? I guess because of the rename and then rename again it may have kept the old files? 😄

chrismessina · 2025-04-26T23:53:45Z

Hey @chrismessina 👋

Awesome improvements! 🔥

Thanks! :)

What's going on here? I guess because of the rename and then rename again it may have kept the old files? 😄

Yeah, I'm confused about this — and couldn't figure out how to clean it up! It seems like the files have been renamed successfully, but Git is confused about them.

What do you suggest?

andreaselia · 2025-04-27T07:04:15Z

@chrismessina the easiest and quickest solution I can think of is moving the files to a directory outside of Git so it counts as deleting them, commit it, and then put the correct files back, and then another commit after that. What do you think?

@chrismessina the easiest and quickest solution I can think of is moving the files to a directory outside of Git so it counts as deleting them, commit it, and then put the correct files back, and then another commit after that. What do you think?

I'll give it a try...!

- Add TODO - Markdown linting - Re-adding files to fix Git issues. - Pull contributions - Trying to reset renamed files status. - Pull contributions

chrismessina · 2025-04-29T01:00:28Z

@andreaselia ok, I discovered the root of the issue... I needed to run this command:

npx @raycast/api@latest pull-contributions

That revealed the files that were not appearing locally and I was able to remove them. Should be set for review now!

PR Summary

(updates since last review)

Based on the latest changes since the previous reviews, here's my summary of the key updates:

Major update to the Google Maps Search extension focusing on improved error handling, code organization, and type safety across utility functions and components.

Improved error handling in src/utils/apiHelpers.ts with detailed stack traces and standardized API request handling using showFailureToast
Enhanced storage utilities in src/utils/storageHelpers.ts with comprehensive type validation and batch operations support
Added new src/utils/mapRenderer.ts for handling static map generation with proper error handling and URL length limits
Added robust form validation in src/components/nearbyPlacesSearchForm.tsx with proper type checking and error messages
Improved distance calculations and unit conversions with proper constant definitions and type safety in src/utils/unitConversions.ts

The changes show good progress in standardizing error handling and improving type safety throughout the codebase. The focus has been on making the utilities more robust and maintainable.

Arggh, this is killing me! How do I get rid of these kabob files??

Hi @chrismessina. You can use GitHub's VS Code Web Editor to delete them. Simply press the . key on this page to open the editor.

andreaselia · 2025-04-29T11:20:01Z

Hey @chrismessina, I've deleted the kebab files. I think there may be a small bug with the publish script at the moment which makes it a little more difficult to delete files from git locally when using it.
