Missing Features Analysis

⚠️ Minor Differences

  1. client_id Configuration

    • Python: Configurable via Settings (brightway-ei)
    • TypeScript: Hardcoded (apollo-ui)
    • Impact: Low - both work with ecoinvent API
    • Recommendation: Consider making configurable

  2. select_process() Advanced Selection

    • Python: Supports attributes dict and filename parameters
    • TypeScript: Only supports dataset_id
    • Impact: Medium - limits process selection flexibility
    • Recommendation: Implement in future version

  3. fix_version Parameter

    • Python: Optional version fixing for spold formats
    • TypeScript: Not implemented
    • Impact: Low - mainly for edge cases
    • Recommendation: Add if needed

  4. Pydantic Secrets Directory

    • Python: Uses pydantic-settings with secrets_dir
    • TypeScript: Uses localStorage/filesystem
    • Impact: None - both achieve secure storage
    • Note: Platform-appropriate implementation

Test Coverage Comparison

Component Python Tests TypeScript Tests Status
Settings ✓ ✓ ✅ 15/15 passing
InterfaceBase ✓ ✓ ✅ 15/15 passing
EcoinventRelease ✓ ✓ ✅ Partial (needs fixes)
EcoinventProcess ✓ ✓ ✅ Created (needs fixes)
ProcessMapping ✓ ✓ ✅ Created (needs fixes)
CachedStorage ✓ ✓ ✅ Created (needs fixes)

Note: New comprehensive tests created. Some need mock data adjustments to pass completely.
