Refactor: Remove unnecessary CSV flush operation in loop
Description
In the class WordLearningEventCsvExportController, there's an inefficient implementation where csvPrinter.flush() is called inside a loop that processes word learning events. Calling flush inside the loop causes unnecessary I/O operations which can impact performance, especially with large datasets.
Current Implementation
for (WordLearningEvent wordLearningEvent : wordLearningEvents) {
log.info("wordLearningEvent.getId(): " + wordLearningEvent.getId());
csvPrinter.printRecord(
wordLearningEvent.getId(),
wordLearningEvent.getTimestamp().getTimeInMillis(),
wordLearningEvent.getAndroidId(),
wordLearningEvent.getPackageName(),
(wordLearningEvent.getWord() == null) ? null : wordLearningEvent.getWord().getId(),
wordLearningEvent.getWordText(),
wordLearningEvent.getLearningEventType(),
wordLearningEvent.getAdditionalData()
);
csvPrinter.flush();
}
Recommended Change
Move the flush() call outside of the loop:
for (WordLearningEvent wordLearningEvent : wordLearningEvents) {
log.info("wordLearningEvent.getId(): " + wordLearningEvent.getId());
csvPrinter.printRecord(
wordLearningEvent.getId(),
wordLearningEvent.getTimestamp().getTimeInMillis(),
wordLearningEvent.getAndroidId(),
wordLearningEvent.getPackageName(),
(wordLearningEvent.getWord() == null) ? null : wordLearningEvent.getWord().getId(),
wordLearningEvent.getWordText(),
wordLearningEvent.getLearningEventType(),
wordLearningEvent.getAdditionalData()
);
}
csvPrinter.flush();
File Path
src/main/java/ai/elimu/web/analytics/WordLearningEventCsvExportController.java
Why is this a good first issue?
This is a simple performance optimization that requires minimal code changes but introduces an important concept about efficient I/O operations.
