The HTML structure lacks semantic accessibility features. The info labels and values should use appropriate ARIA attributes or semantic HTML elements to improve screen reader support. Consider using a description list (dl, dt, dd) instead of generic divs and spans for the label-value pairs, or add ARIA labels to clarify the relationship between labels and values.

The filesize function is defined but never used in this file. The code uses window.byte_format instead (lines 150-151). Either remove this unused function or replace the calls to window.byte_format with this local filesize function.

The child_process module is declared in the MODULES static property but is never used in this service. This should be removed to avoid confusion about dependencies.

The start_time property is set during initialization but is never used anywhere in the service. If server start time tracking is needed, it should be utilized in the response or removed.

The test doesn't actually test the system info functionality. The second test case creates mock objects but doesn't invoke any actual logic. Consider either removing this incomplete test or implementing proper integration testing that verifies the endpoint handler returns the expected data structure.

There is an extra space before the opening tag on line 84. This creates inconsistent indentation compared to the other section divs on lines 65 and 74. Remove the extra leading space for consistency.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The catch block on line 172 sets all server info values to 'Error' by selecting all elements with class 'info-value' inside '#server-info'. However, this selector will also match any additional info values that might be added in the future, potentially causing unintended side effects. Use more specific selectors for each field, similar to how the successful response handles them individually.

The error logging on line 169 logs the full response object, which could contain sensitive information or be difficult to debug. Consider logging response.status and response.statusText instead, or awaiting response.text() to get the actual error message from the server.
| console.error('Failed to fetch system info', response); | |
| let errorMessage = `status ${response.status} ${response.statusText}`; | |
| try { | |
| const errorText = await response.text(); | |
| if ( errorText ) { | |
| errorMessage += ` - ${errorText}`; | |
| } | |
| } catch ( e ) { | |
| // Ignore errors while reading response body for logging. | |
| } | |

Sorry for the delay on reviewing.
Some of the issues github flag are to be looked at
but 2 big ones:
please make this endpoint for "admin" and "system" user only, could expose potentially sensitive info .
if you need/want this info to be available publicly on your own hosting I would suggest using the extension system to make a new route exposing that info
extension.get("/systemInfo", (req, res)=> res.send(infoObject))
but don't think we can have it as default for everyone

only "admin" and "system" users should be able to fetch this sort of information

please extract logic for generating the response so that it can be tested, you don't need to mock the router, but you could structure it as a Controller | service | repo pattern and test the service layer method here
|
thanks for the contribution. I've seen that #2311 this PR had already been assigned so will be taking that one just to avoid further confusion. We'll do better to properly assign tasks in the future since a few people seemed to have added the same feature, sorry about that |
