## Walkthrough The recent changes focus on enhancing the robustness and clarity of the `visual_run` method in the `SchedulersController`. Specifically, the method now checks if `output` can be converted to a string using `respond_to?(:to_str)` instead of merely checking its truthiness. Additionally, documentation has been updated to stress the importance of explicitly returning `nil` in the `update` method of a scheduler to avoid unintended implicit returns in Ruby. ## Changes | File Path | Change Summary | |-------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `app/controllers/schedulers_controller.rb` | Updated the `visual_run` method to check if `output` responds to `to_str` instead of checking its truthiness. | | `docs/features/schedulers.md` | Clarified the behavior of returning values in the `update` method, emphasizing the need to explicitly return `nil`. |Recent Review Details

`59-59`: Ensure the `output` can be converted to a string to prevent errors.
Description
Check whether return value of
updatemethod has ato_strmethod (used for implicit conversions), rather than just if it's non-nil.Motivation and Context
The scheduler visual run output feature introduced in #1916 expects that users either return a string or
nilfrom theupdatemethod.However, if an existing user was not aware of the change, they may not have an explicit return. As a result of Ruby's implicit returns, they might return a value that is non-
nilyet can not be converted to a string, leading to an error.How Has This Been Tested?
(Follow the steps in #1916 if unsure how to set up a scheduler)
returning a string
returning nil
returning non-nil value that can't be converted to a string
Note:
truehas ato_smethod but NOT ato_strmethod. So implicit conversions fail. (same picture as above)Updated documentation
