Reduce LOC in visitor.py #188
Description
Feature Description
Refactor the visitor.py module to reduce its overall lines of code (LOC) without sacrificing readability or maintainability. The goal is to streamline the visitor logic, making it more concise and easier to maintain.
Implementation
- Identify Repetitive Patterns: Review visitor methods for similar logic that can be abstracted into helper functions or base classes.
- Leverage Pythonic Constructs: Use decorators, context managers, or utility functions to handle common pre/post-processing tasks.
- Parameterize Common Operations: Where multiple methods differ only by a node type or minor detail, parameterize the differences and use a single generalized function.
- Inline Simple Methods: For methods that only call a superclass or perform a trivial transformation, consider inlining or removing them.
- Document Changes: Ensure all refactorings are well-documented and covered by existing or new tests to prevent regressions.
Note:
All refactoring should preserve existing functionality and pass the current test suite. If any behavioral changes are required, they should be proposed and discussed separately.
