Developers often add comments to code that is not complete or needs review. You probably want to fix or review the code and then remove the comments before considering the code to be production-ready. Issues are raised whenever our analyzer finds these keywords in the comments i.e., TODO, FIXME, XXX.
// TODO: do something
// FIXME: this is not a good idea
It is recommended to have documentation comments above, or right inside a function/class declaration. This helps developers, users and even the author understand the purpose of a code snippet or API function in the future.
NOTE: If you want to stop this issue from getting raised on certain constructs (arrow functions, class expressions, methods etc.), consider using the skipdoccoverage option under the analyzers.meta
property in your .deepsource.toml
file.
For example, the following configuration will silence this issue for class expressions and method definitions:
[analyzers.meta]
skip_doc_coverage = ["class-expression", "method-definition"]
