Rename parameters to reflect their use

[6lr61]

date1 and date2 isn't very descriptive and their order does matter. I suggest renaming them to earlier and later instead.

• Chores
  • Enhanced parameter naming for clarity in date difference calculations.

Walkthrough

The changes involve modifying the dateDifference function in the server/src/utils/timeBetweenDates.ts file. The parameters date1 and date2 have been renamed to earlierDate and laterDate for improved clarity. This renaming is reflected in the function signature, its internal logic, and the associated comments. While the structure and functionality of the function remain unchanged, the updates enhance the readability and understanding of the code.

Changes

File	Change Summary

Poem

In the land of dates, where time does play,
earlierDate and laterDate lead the way.
With clarity shining, our code's now bright,
Calculating differences, all feels just right.
A hop and a skip, through logic we prance,
Celebrating changes, let’s give it a chance! 🐇✨

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

41-45: Consider enhancing the documentation of the date calculation logic.

While the parameter renaming improves clarity, the date calculation logic, particularly the use of the magic number 32, could benefit from more detailed documentation.

Consider adding a more detailed comment explaining the logic:

-    // days = days left in earlierDate's month,
-    //   plus days that have passed in laterDate's month
+    // Calculate remaining days when crossing month boundary:
+    // 1. Set date to 32 to determine the last day of the month
+    // 2. Calculate: (days remaining in earlier month) + (days passed in later month)
+    // Note: Using 32 ensures we get the actual last day of any month

3-4: Great improvement in parameter naming!

The renaming from date1/date2 to earlierDate/laterDate significantly improves code clarity by making the expected parameter order self-documenting. The JSDoc comments and function signature are consistently updated.

Also applies to: 8-9

19-24: Clean and consistent parameter usage!

The date difference calculations are now more intuitive to read with laterDate - earlierDate clearly indicating the expected chronological order.

---

Line range hint 1-85: Verify consistent parameter naming across similar functions.

The file uses two different (but equally clear) parameter naming conventions:

• earlierDate/laterDate in dateDifference
• pastDate/futureDate in timeBetweenDates

Both conventions are descriptive, but we should verify if there are other similar functions in the codebase that might benefit from consistent naming.
