โก Recommended focus areas for review Error Handling The error handling in sanitizeUrl might not be robust enough as it returns an empty string for non-http/https URLs, which could lead to data loss in analytics. Code Redundancy The check for 'a' tags and capturing href attributes could be optimized to avoid redundancy and improve performance. |

suggestion | Consider using a more descriptive variable name than 'href' for storing the URL, such as 'elementHref' or 'currentHref', to improve code readability and maintainability. [medium] |
relevant line | if (href !== null) { |

suggestion | Instead of returning an empty string when the URL protocol is not http or https, consider logging this event or handling it in a way that does not potentially lose important tracking information. [important] |
relevant line | if (parsedUrl.protocol !== 'http:' && parsedUrl.protocol !== 'https:') { |

Enhance the check for an empty URL to handle strings that contain only whitespace___ **Use a more specific condition to check for an emptyurl string in sanitizeUrl to handle cases where url might be only whitespace.**

Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7Why: The suggestion improves the robustness of the `sanitizeUrl` function by ensuring that URLs containing only whitespace are treated as empty, which enhances input validation. | 7 |
Best practice |
Log errors when URL parsing fails to aid in debugging and error tracking___ **Modify the catch block insanitizeUrl to log the error for better debugging and error tracking.** [packages/javascript-sdk/src/tracking/autocapture.ts [276-279]](https://github.com/usermaven/usermaven-js/pull/121/files#diff-0cd940fd1ac22f0b70699cc61d155377da671515a538fe04bbfdda9693448b5bR276-R279) ```diff catch (e) { + console.error('Failed to parse URL:', e); // If URL parsing fails, return the original url after basic sanitization return this.encodeHtml(url); ``` Suggestion importance[1-10]: 6Why: Logging errors when URL parsing fails provides valuable information for debugging and error tracking, although it does not directly affect functionality. | 6 |
