Code Review: Hashable ID Support

Summary

This PR introduces type-safe support for any Hashable type as portal identifiers by replacing string-based IDs with AnyHashable. This is a well-architected refactoring that improves type safety and developer experience.

✅ Strengths

1. Architecture & Design

  • Excellent type-safe design: The introduction of PortalKey struct combining id: AnyHashable and role: PortalRole is a clean replacement for string concatenation patterns
  • Consistent API: Generic parameters throughout with proper AnyHashable wrapping
  • Backward compatible: String IDs still work seamlessly since String conforms to Hashable
  • Well-documented: Good inline documentation explaining the AnyHashable usage

2. Code Quality

  • Proper use of nonisolated(unsafe): Correctly applied to static constants
  • Consistent error handling: Logging maintains string conversion for metadata
  • DRY improvements: The new transferActivePortal(from:to:) overload for Identifiable reduces code duplication
  • Clean refactoring: Systematic replacement across all portal-related code

3. Developer Experience

  • Convenience overloads: The Identifiable item-based APIs are more ergonomic
  • Type inference: Users can now pass IDs directly without string interpolation
  • Better examples: Updated carousel example shows cleaner usage patterns

🔍 Areas for Consideration

1. Performance - Minor Concern

AnyHashable wrapping adds a small performance overhead compared to direct string keys. This is likely negligible for typical UI use cases, but worth noting. The type safety and API improvements outweigh the minimal performance cost.

2. API Surface - Unused Utility

PortalConstants.key(for:) at line 67 appears unused and returns String while the codebase now uses AnyHashable directly. Consider removing it if it was part of an earlier design, or updating it to return AnyHashable if it's meant to be a public utility.

3. Initializer Overload

PortalInfo has two initializers (generic and AnyHashable). The comment explains this avoids double-wrapping, which is valid. Consider adding @_disfavoredOverload to the AnyHashable version to ensure the generic version is preferred.

4. Missing Test Coverage

No unit tests found in the repository. This significant refactoring changes the fundamental identifier system but can't be verified by automated tests. Consider adding:

  • Unit tests for PortalKey hashing and equality
  • Tests for different Hashable types (UUID, Int, custom types)
  • Tests for the transferActivePortal methods
  • Regression tests to ensure string IDs still work

5. Documentation Gap

While inline documentation is good, consider adding a migration guide showing before/after examples and noting the enhanced type safety.

6. Removed Sendable Conformance

CarouselItem no longer conforms to Sendable. Verify this was intentional - if this struct is used across concurrency boundaries, Sendable should be restored.

🔒 Security Assessment

✅ No security concerns identified

  • Type-safe design reduces potential for injection or type confusion
  • No user input validation issues
  • Logging properly escapes values with string conversion

🎯 Best Practices Compliance

✅ File headers properly formatted
✅ SwiftUI/Swift idioms maintained
✅ Public APIs well-documented
✅ Examples updated to demonstrate new patterns

📊 Overall Assessment

Quality Score: 8.5/10

This is a high-quality refactoring that meaningfully improves the API with excellent type safety. The refactoring is thorough and well-executed. With minor cleanup and test additions, this will be a solid enhancement to the Portal library.

🎬 Recommendations

Required before merge:

  • Confirm PortalConstants.key(for:) is needed or remove it
  • Verify CarouselItem Sendable removal was intentional

Recommended for follow-up:

  • Add unit tests for PortalKey and AnyHashable ID handling
  • Add migration guide to documentation
  • Consider adding performance benchmarks if this becomes a concern

Great work on maintaining API ergonomics while improving type safety! The Identifiable convenience methods are particularly nice.

Pull Request Review: Hashable

Summary: This PR refactors the portal ID system from string-based identifiers to type-safe AnyHashable identifiers, providing better type safety and flexibility while maintaining backward compatibility.

Strengths:

  1. Type Safety - The new PortalKey struct provides excellent type safety by combining ID with portal role. Using AnyHashable allows any Hashable type as identifiers.

  2. Clean Architecture - PortalKey properly encapsulates ID and role, replacing string concatenation patterns. Consistent use of AnyHashable wrapping throughout.

  3. Backward Compatibility - String IDs still work seamlessly since String conforms to Hashable. No breaking changes.

  4. Documentation - Well-documented with clear explanations of the migration, including good inline comments for edge cases like the compiler crash workaround.

Areas for Improvement:

  1. Unused PortalConstants.key() method - The PR adds a key() method at PortalConstants.swift:67-68 that converts Identifiable items to strings, but it is not used anywhere in the refactored code. Recommendation: Either remove it, use it consistently, or document why it exists but is not currently used.

  2. Test Coverage Gaps - PortalCoreTests.swift only tests string-based IDs. Need test cases for non-string ID types like UUID and Int, the new PortalKey type, AnyHashable equality and hashing behavior, and the transferActivePortal method with different ID types.

  3. nonisolated(unsafe) usage - Added to AnchorKey.defaultValue at line 30 and CarouselItem.sampleItems at line 105. While likely safe for immutable default values, document why this is safe and will not cause concurrency issues.

  4. Disabled Identifiable Overload - The commented-out convenience method at CrossModel.swift:119-127 due to compiler crash forces verbose usage. Recommendation: File Apple feedback with FB number in the comment, explore protocol extension workarounds.

Security and Performance:

  • Security: No issues identified. Internal architectural improvements only.
  • Performance: AnyHashable has reasonable overhead, PortalKey is efficiently stack-allocated, no algorithmic changes. Dictionary lookups with PortalKey actually prevent key collisions.

Code Quality: Excellent formatting, naming, access control, and documentation coverage.

Recommendations:

High Priority:

  1. Add comprehensive test coverage for non-string ID types
  2. Decide on PortalConstants.key() - use it, remove it, or document it

Medium Priority:
3. File Apple feedback for compiler crash with FB reference
4. Document nonisolated(unsafe) safety

Low Priority:
5. Add example documentation for UUID and Int-based portals

Overall Assessment:

Verdict: Approve with recommendations

This is a well-executed refactoring with sound architecture, clean code, and maintained compatibility. Main gaps are test coverage and the unused utility function. Demonstrates strong Swift generics understanding, careful API design, and thoughtful edge case handling. Great work!

Pull Request Review: Hashable Portal IDs

Overview

This PR refactors Portal to use AnyHashable for portal IDs instead of String, enabling support for any Hashable type (UUID, Int, custom types, etc.). This is a well-executed architectural improvement that maintains backward compatibility while adding flexibility.


Strengths

1. Code Quality & Architecture

  • Type-safe design: The new PortalKey struct properly encapsulates ID + role, replacing fragile string concatenation
  • Generic constraints: Excellent use of generic constraints with AnyHashable wrapping
  • Backward compatibility: String IDs still work seamlessly due to String conforming to Hashable
  • Clean API: The convenience overload for Identifiable items provides ergonomic usage

2. Documentation

  • Comprehensive inline documentation explaining the AnyHashable approach
  • The CompilerCrashReproducer.swift is excellent – it documents a real Swift compiler bug with context and workarounds
  • Clear migration path for users (no breaking changes for existing string-based code)

3. Consistency

  • Changes are applied uniformly across all relevant files
  • nonisolated(unsafe) added appropriately to AnchorKey.defaultValue (correct for Swift 6 concurrency)

⚠️ Issues & Concerns

1. Binary File in Repository (Critical)

CompilerCrashReproducer (binary file) should not be committed to the repository. This increases repo size unnecessarily and may contain machine-specific executable code.

Recommended fix:

git rm --cached CompilerCrashReproducer
echo "CompilerCrashReproducer" >> .gitignore

2. Test Coverage (Important)

The PR lacks tests for the new functionality. Missing test cases:

  • transferActivePortal with different Hashable types (UUID, Int, custom structs)
  • PortalKey equality and hashing behavior
  • Double-wrapping prevention in PortalInfo.init(id: AnyHashable)
  • Mixed ID types in group animations

Recommendation: Add tests to verify the new generic functionality works correctly with various Hashable types.


3. Performance (Minor)

  • AnyHashable wrapping overhead: Each ID now gets wrapped, adding small allocation cost
    • Verdict: Acceptable tradeoff for the flexibility gained
  • Dictionary lookups: Changed from [String: Anchor] to [PortalKey: Anchor]
    • Verdict: Negligible difference; PortalKey hashes efficiently

4. Potential Issues

a) PortalConstants.key() Inconsistency

The function at lines 66-68 in PortalConstants.swift returns String, but the rest of the codebase now uses AnyHashable. Consider either removing this unused function or updating its return type.

b) Error Handling

In CrossModel.transferActivePortal, logging uses string interpolation which may not be readable for custom types. Consider using String(reflecting:) for better debug output.


5. Security Concerns

No security issues identified

  • No user input parsing or injection risks
  • Type-safe generics prevent runtime type confusion
  • No dynamic dispatch vulnerabilities

📊 Code Metrics

  • Files changed: 20 (appropriate scope)
  • Lines added: 430 / Lines removed: 207 (Net +223)
  • New public API: PortalKey struct, generic overloads
  • Breaking changes: None (fully backward compatible)

🎯 Recommendations

Must Fix:

  1. Remove the binary file and add to .gitignore

Should Fix:

  1. Add test coverage for new generic functionality
  2. Clarify PortalConstants.key() usage or remove if unused

Nice to Have:

  1. Consider documenting the compiler crash workaround in a GitHub issue
  2. Add a migration guide to the wiki for users with complex ID types

🏁 Summary

This is a high-quality PR that improves type safety and flexibility without breaking existing code. The main concerns are missing tests and binary file inclusion.

Once these are addressed, this will be an excellent addition to Portal.

Recommendation: ✅ Approve with minor changes

Pull Request Review: Hashable Portal IDs

Thank you for this well-structured PR that modernizes the Portal API to support any Hashable type for portal identifiers! This is a significant improvement over the previous string-based approach.


Strengths

1. Type Safety & API Design

  • Excellent use of AnyHashable: Wrapping IDs in AnyHashable enables support for any Hashable type (String, UUID, Int, custom types) while maintaining type erasure.
  • PortalKey struct: The new PortalKey type is a clean replacement for string concatenation ("\(id)DEST"). Combining the ID with PortalRole makes the code more maintainable and type-safe.
  • Generic initializers: Using <ID: Hashable> parameters allows call sites to pass any hashable type without manual wrapping.
  • Consistent API: The changes are applied uniformly across all portal modifiers and core types.

2. Documentation

  • Clear inline documentation explaining the rationale for AnyHashable
  • Good examples showing both static IDs and Identifiable items
  • Well-documented compiler crash workaround in CrossModel.swift:137-150

3. Backward Compatibility

  • The API changes are source-compatible for most use cases (string IDs still work)
  • Migration path is clear for users upgrading from string-based IDs

4. Code Quality

  • Clean refactoring with minimal code duplication
  • Follows existing patterns and conventions in the codebase
  • Proper use of @MainActor for thread safety
  • Good logging with contextual metadata

⚠️ Issues & Concerns

1. Binary File in Repository (Critical)

File: CompilerCrashReproducer

A compiled Mach-O ARM64 executable was added to the repository. Binary files should not be committed to version control:

  • Why it's problematic:

    • Bloats repository size permanently (Git never truly deletes files)
    • Security risk (executable code in repos raises red flags)
    • Platform-specific (ARM64 only)
    • No source code for reproducibility
  • Recommendation:

    • Remove this file immediately: git rm CompilerCrashReproducer
    • Add *.o, *.dylib, and executable patterns to .gitignore
    • If needed for debugging, create a separate GitHub issue describing the compiler crash with source code, not a binary

2. Missing Test Coverage

The PR changes core types (PortalInfo, AnchorKey, CrossModel) but doesn't add corresponding tests:

  • PortalKey: No tests for the new type

    • Should test: initialization, hashability, equality with different ID types
  • CrossModel.transferActivePortal: No tests for the new generic overloads

    • Should test: transfer with UUID, Int, custom Hashable types
    • Should test: the fromItem/toItem convenience method
  • AnchorKey: Tests should verify the change from [String: Anchor<CGRect>] to [PortalKey: Anchor<CGRect>]

Recommendation: Add tests to Tests/PortalTransitionsTests/PortalCoreTests.swift:

@MainActor
func testPortalKeyHashability() {
    let key1 = PortalKey("test", role: .source)
    let key2 = PortalKey("test", role: .source)
    let key3 = PortalKey("test", role: .destination)
    
    XCTAssertEqual(key1, key2)
    XCTAssertNotEqual(key1, key3)
}

@MainActor
func testPortalKeyWithDifferentTypes() {
    let stringKey = PortalKey("test", role: .source)
    let uuidKey = PortalKey(UUID(), role: .source)
    let intKey = PortalKey(42, role: .source)
    
    XCTAssertNotEqual(stringKey.id, uuidKey.id)
    XCTAssertNotEqual(uuidKey.id, intKey.id)
}

@MainActor
func testTransferActivePortalWithGenericID() {
    let model = CrossModel()
    let id1 = UUID()
    let id2 = UUID()
    
    model.info.append(PortalInfo(id: id1))
    model.transferActivePortal(from: id1, to: id2)
    
    XCTAssertEqual(model.info.count, 2)
    XCTAssertFalse(model.info[0].initialized)
    XCTAssertTrue(model.info[1].initialized)
}

3. nonisolated(unsafe) Usage

Files:

  • AnchorKey.swift:30 - static let defaultValue
  • PortalExampleGridCarousel.swift:101 - static let sampleItems

The use of nonisolated(unsafe) bypasses Swift's concurrency safety checks:

  • AnchorKey.defaultValue: This is likely safe since it's an empty dictionary constant, but consider if this can be static let without the annotation in Swift 6.2
  • CarouselItem.sampleItems: This array of structs is immutable, but nonisolated(unsafe) suggests potential race conditions

Recommendation:

  • For AnchorKey, test if nonisolated(unsafe) is still required in Swift 6.2 (the PR updates to 6.2)
  • For sampleItems, if it's truly immutable, document why nonisolated(unsafe) is necessary
  • Consider if these could be computed properties or static functions instead

4. Performance Consideration

File: AnimatedItemPortalLayer.swift:223-228

The buildActiveStates method creates two dictionaries per update:

private func buildActiveStates(for items: [Layer.Item]) -> [Layer.Item.ID: Bool] {
    var infoLookup: [AnyHashable: Bool] = [:]  // O(m) space
    // ... populate infoLookup
    
    var states: [Layer.Item.ID: Bool] = [:]    // O(n) space
    // ... populate states
    return states
}

This is efficient for typical use cases, but could be optimized for large item counts:

  • Current: O(n + m) time, O(n + m) space
  • Potential optimization: Direct lookup without intermediate dictionary if portalModel.info supports O(1) lookups by ID

Note: This is likely not a concern for typical UI scenarios (dozens of items), but worth documenting if it's intentional.


🔍 Minor Issues

5. Inconsistent String Interpolation

File: CrossModel.swift:120

metadata: ["fromID": String(reflecting: fromID), "toID": String(reflecting: toID)]

This uses String(reflecting:) while other places use string interpolation "\(id)". For consistency, use the same approach throughout.

6. Compiler Crash Workaround

File: CrossModel.swift:137-150

The documented Swift compiler crash is concerning:

  • Good: Well-documented workaround with clear explanation
  • Concern: This is a fragile workaround that may break in future Swift versions
  • Recommendation:
    • File a bug report with Apple if not already done
    • Add the bug report number to the comment
    • Consider adding a unit test that would detect if the compiler crash is fixed

7. Missing .gitignore Entry

The binary file suggests .gitignore might not be comprehensive enough.

Recommendation: Add to .gitignore:

# Compiler crash reproducers
CompilerCrashReproducer
*.crash

# Build artifacts
*.o
*.dylib
*.framework

🎯 Recommendations Summary

Must Fix Before Merge:

  1. ❗ Remove the CompilerCrashReproducer binary file
  2. ❗ Add .gitignore entries for binaries and build artifacts

Strongly Recommended:
3. 📝 Add unit tests for PortalKey and generic ID support
4. 📝 Add tests for transferActivePortal with non-string IDs
5. 🔍 Review nonisolated(unsafe) usage and document necessity

Optional Improvements:
6. 📚 Document the performance characteristics of buildActiveStates
7. 🐛 File Apple bug report for compiler crash and reference it in code
8. 🎨 Standardize string conversion approach in logging


📊 Overall Assessment

This is a high-quality refactoring that significantly improves the API's flexibility and type safety. The core changes are well-thought-out and properly implemented. The main concerns are:

  • The binary file (easily fixed)
  • Missing test coverage for new functionality
  • Minor concurrency safety documentation

With the binary removed and tests added, this PR will be ready to merge.

Recommended Action: Request changes for the binary file removal, then approve after tests are added.


🎓 Learning Opportunities

For future PRs:

  • Always check for accidentally committed build artifacts
  • Add tests for new public API surface area
  • Document non-obvious concurrency annotations
  • Consider adding migration guides for API changes

Great work overall! The AnyHashable approach is the right design choice for this API. 🚀

Code Review - PR #61: Hashable

Overview

This PR refactors the Portal library to use generic Hashable types for portal identifiers instead of being limited to String. This is a significant architectural improvement that enhances type safety and flexibility.

Strengths

1. Excellent API Design

  • The use of AnyHashable wrapper with generic initializers provides a clean, type-safe API
  • Multiple convenience overloads for Identifiable items reduce boilerplate
  • The PortalKey struct properly encapsulates ID + role, eliminating error-prone string concatenation

2. Strong Test Coverage

The test suite (PortalCoreTests.swift) is comprehensive with 208 new lines:

  • Tests for different Hashable types (String, UUID, Int, custom types)
  • Edge cases like double-wrapping prevention
  • Transfer operations between different ID types
  • Performance benchmarks

3. Good Documentation

  • Well-written doc comments explain the rationale for changes
  • Example code in documentation shows proper usage
  • Compiler crash workaround is clearly documented with reproduction steps

4. Backward Compatibility

All existing string-based APIs continue to work seamlessly due to String conforming to Hashable.

Issues and Concerns

1. CRITICAL: Binary File in Repository

Location: CompilerCrashReproducer (Mach-O 64-bit arm64 executable)

Issue: A 105KB compiled binary has been committed to the repository. This is problematic:

  • Security concern: Binaries cannot be easily reviewed in code review
  • Version control pollution: Binaries do not diff well and bloat git history
  • Platform-specific: arm64 binary will not work on Intel Macs or other platforms
  • Maintenance burden: Will become outdated and unmaintained

Recommendation: Remove this file with git rm CompilerCrashReproducer

2. Swift Tools Version Bump

Location: Package.swift:1

Concern: Bumps minimum Swift version from 6.0 to 6.2, which may break users on Xcode 16.0/16.1 and should be mentioned in release notes. Is Swift 6.2 actually required for this PR?

3. Compiler Workaround

Location: CrossModel.swift:124-150

The workaround uses different parameter labels (fromItem/toItem vs from/to) which creates API inconsistency. Recommendation: File a bug with Apple (FB number) and reference it in the comments for tracking.

4. nonisolated(unsafe) Static Properties

Location: AnchorKey.swift:27, PortalExampleGridCarousel.swift:101

Using nonisolated(unsafe) opts out of Swift 6 concurrency checking. Consider adding comments explaining why each usage is safe.

5. Removed Sendable Conformance

Location: PortalExampleGridCarousel.swift:79

CarouselItem no longer conforms to Sendable. Was this intentional?

Code Quality Notes

Good Practices:

  • Consistent error handling with structured logging
  • Guard clauses prevent invalid states early
  • Clear separation of concerns
  • No force unwraps or unsafe operations

Minor Style Points:

  • Metadata logging uses both string interpolation and String(reflecting:) - be consistent
  • Some indentation inconsistencies (likely auto-formatted)

Security Review

No security concerns identified except the binary file which appears benign but should be removed.

Performance Review

No significant performance issues. O(n+m) lookup optimization is good. AnyHashable overhead is acceptable for UI code.

Test Coverage

Excellent coverage (208 new test lines). Minor gap: No integration tests for actual portal transitions with different ID types in a UI context.

Recommendations

Must Fix:

  1. Remove the binary file (CompilerCrashReproducer)

Should Fix:
2. Revert Swift 6.2 requirement to 6.0 unless absolutely necessary
3. File Apple bug report for compiler crash and add FB number to comments
4. Add comments explaining nonisolated(unsafe) safety

Nice to Have:
5. Restore Sendable conformance for CarouselItem if possible
6. Consistent metadata logging - use String(reflecting:) throughout
7. Migration guide in docs or release notes

Approval Recommendation

Conditional Approval - Approve after addressing the binary file issue.

This is a high-quality PR that significantly improves the API. The refactoring is well-executed with strong tests and documentation. The only blocker is the binary file, which should be removed before merging.

Great work on this refactoring! The move to generic Hashable identifiers is a solid architectural improvement.

Replaces string interpolation with String(reflecting:) for all metadata values in logging calls across PortalHeaderContent, CrossModel, transition modifiers, and Portal views. This ensures more accurate and descriptive representations of logged values, especially for non-string types.

PR Review: Hashable Type-Safe Portal IDs

This is a substantial refactoring that migrates portal IDs from String to AnyHashable, enabling type-safe portal identification. The implementation is thorough and well-tested.

✅ Strengths

Architecture & Design

  • Excellent type safety migration from string-based IDs to AnyHashable
  • New PortalKey type cleanly combines ID + role
  • Generic initializers maintain backward compatibility
  • Smart double-wrapping prevention in PortalInfo.init

Code Quality

  • Comprehensive testing: 208+ lines covering equality, hashing, generic types, and edge cases
  • Improved logging with String(reflecting:)
  • Well-documented compiler crash workaround

🔍 Areas for Improvement

1. nonisolated(unsafe) Usage (AnchorKey.swift:30, PortalExampleGridCarousel.swift:102)
While justified as immutable, this bypasses Swift concurrency checks. Consider @preconcurrency or filing Apple feedback for Anchor Sendable conformance.

2. Error Handling (CrossModel.swift:64-72)
transferActivePortal silently fails when source portal not found. Consider Result<Void, PortalError> or throws for programmatic handling.

3. Compiler Crash (CrossModel.swift:146)
File actual Radar bug report and update FB00000000 placeholder.

4. Performance (AnimatedItemPortalLayerHost.swift:220-234)
buildActiveStates wraps each item.id in AnyHashable. Profile with 100+ items and consider caching.

5. Group ID Validation (GroupIDPortalTransitionModifier.swift:65)
No validation for empty groupID strings. Add DEBUG assertions.

6. Double-Wrapping Edge Case (PortalInfo.swift:163-171)
Generic init may double-wrap AnyHashable. Add test to verify behavior.

🐛 Potential Bugs

7. Orphaned Portal State
transferActivePortal creates new PortalInfo if destination doesn't exist. May cause memory leaks if view never created.

8. Race Condition (Portal.swift:86-98)
Task in onPreferenceChange creates suspension point. Multiple rapid changes could arrive out of order.

📊 Test Coverage

Excellent additions: PortalKey tests, generic ID types, transferActivePortal scenarios, performance benchmarks

Missing: Concurrent transfers, nil/invalid IDs, mixed ID types in groups, memory leak tests

🎬 Recommendation

APPROVE with minor revisions

Before merging:

  1. File Swift compiler bug report
  2. Add concurrent transfer tests
  3. Document nonisolated(unsafe) thoroughly
  4. Add PR description
  5. Consider error handling improvements

Post-merge:

  1. Update wiki with migration guide
  2. Profile performance with large datasets
  3. Monitor edge cases

Great work! Type-safe API will prevent many runtime bugs. 🎉
