Shexli found 2 issues that may need reviewer attention.

EGO-X-004 warning

extensions should avoid synchronous file IO in shell code

Shell code should avoid synchronous file IO APIs like `GLib.file_get_contents()` and `Gio.File.load_contents()`.

    file.load_contents(null)
  • extension.js:571

EGO-M-008 warning

extensions using unlock-dialog must document it in disable() comments

Extensions using `unlock-dialog` should document the reason in `disable()` comments.

Session Modes

  • extension.js:666
        disable() {
            this._proxyGeneration++;
            this._logindGeneration++;
    
            if (this._tracker) {
                this._tracker.tick(this._nowUs());
                const state = this._tracker.snapshot();
                this._saveRecordIfDirty();

Hello. Thank you for your continued guidance. I have carefully read and followed the best practices. Here is what I fixed: Removed all _enabled flags and unconditional early returns from disable(). Removed all unnecessary try-catch wrappers around disconnect() and Source.remove(). Moved _proxyGeneration++ and _logindGeneration++ to the beginning of disable(). Grouped timeout removal and creation together in _setPosition(). Removed all if (!this._enabled) checks from callbacks and lifecycle methods. I have uploaded version 9 (v9) with all fixes. Please let me know if there is anything else. Thanks!

Hello. Thank you for your continued guidance and thorough review. I have completely refactored the extension based on your feedback and the Best Practices guidelines. Here is a summary of all changes: ### 🏗️ Code Architecture - Split the monolithic `extension.js` into modular files: - `file-manager.js` – all file operations (async) - `power-manager.js` – UPower and logind management - `ui-manager.js` – panel indicator and menu - `core.js` – session tracker and utilities - The entry point (`extension.js`) is now small and focused (only lifecycle management) ### 🔧 Fixed Issues - **EGO-X-004**: Replaced all synchronous file I/O with async methods (`load_contents_async`) - **EGO-M-008**: Added comment explaining `unlock-dialog` usage in `disable()` - **EGO-A-004**: Reduced `console.error` calls to 2 (well below the limit of 5) - **Battery icon**: Fixed charge level display (no longer shows red at 76%) - **Initialization speed**: Indicator appears instantly, "Loading..." shown until UPower connects - **Power state reaction**: Update interval reduced to 1 second for faster response - **Best Practices**: - Removed `_enabled` flag - Removed empty `try-catch` blocks - Removed optional chaining for guaranteed methods - Split lines longer than 200 characters - Placed `enable()` and `disable()` close together - Removed all `console.log` statements - No emojis in code ### 📝 Documentation - README now includes both Russian and English versions - Added installation instructions for `gnome-extensions install` ### ✅ Quality Assurance - All checks in `check.sh` pass: **0 errors, 0 warnings** - Full compliance with EGO Review Guidelines and Best Practices ### 🚀 Release - Version 1.0.4 is available on GitHub: https://github.com/Gluk41/battery-session-timer/releases/tag/v1.0.4 - The extension has been uploaded to EGO for review Thank you for your patience. Please let me know if there is anything else I need to address.
