kubi_ecs_logger/wrapper/logger.py

+        defaults = self._get_defaults_for(Client)
        if defaults:
            kwargs.update(defaults)

        self._base.add_object(ECS(version=version))


The ecs() method has three issues:

It uses Client instead of ECS when calling _get_defaults_for(), which means defaults configured for the 'ecs' field won't be retrieved at all

The kwargs merged with defaults (line 401) are never passed to the ECS constructor (line 403), so even if defaults were retrieved correctly, they wouldn't be applied

Unlike other field methods in this PR, it doesn't follow the new pattern of collecting explicit parameters and properly merging defaults. The version parameter should be collected in a params dict first, then defaults should be merged without overriding explicit params, and finally kwargs should be merged.

The correct implementation should be similar to other field methods like error() or event().

Suggested change

defaults = self._get_defaults_for(Client)

if defaults:

kwargs.update(defaults)

self._base.add_object(ECS(version=version))

# Collect explicit parameters (only non-None values)

params = {}

if version is not None:

params['version'] = version

# Merge with defaults (defaults don't override explicit params)

defaults = self._get_defaults_for(ECS)

if defaults:

for key, value in defaults.items():

if key not in params:

params[key] = value

# Merge with kwargs (kwargs override everything)

params.update(kwargs)

self._base.add_object(ECS(**params))

Addresses all 10 inline code review comments from Copilot: 1. Fixed critical bug in ecs() method (logger.py): - Changed _get_defaults_for(Client) to _get_defaults_for(ECS) - Implemented proper parameter collection and merging pattern - Now correctly passes all params to ECS constructor - Follows same pattern as error() and other field methods 2. Fixed invalid class name in docstring (field_set.py): - Changed "class Custom Field" to "class CustomField" 3. Removed unused imports: - Removed pytest from test_exceptions.py - Removed pytest from test_fields.py - Removed pytest from test_readme_examples.py - Removed datetime from test_fields.py 4. Fixed identical value comparisons in test_severity.py: - Updated <= and >= tests to compare different values - Fixed equality test to avoid comparing identical constants 5. Added regression tests (test_regressions.py): - 5 new tests verifying ecs() bug fix - Tests cover defaults, explicit params, kwargs, and precedence - Prevents reintroduction of the bug All 110 tests passing (105 original + 5 new regression tests).

kubi_ecs_logger/wrapper/logger.py:1368

Inefficient logic in _append_log_level method. When a LogLine already exists with level=None, the code sets the level on line 1364 but then falls through to line 1368 which calls add_object again. While add_object will safely reject the duplicate (first wins policy), this is wasteful and confusing.

The method should return after setting the level:

if hasattr(self._base, "logline"):
    if self._base.logline.level is None:
        self._base.logline.level = severity_level
    return  # Return for both branches
else:
    self._base.add_object(LogLine(level=severity_level))

Or more simply:

if hasattr(self._base, "logline"):
    if self._base.logline.level is None:
        self._base.logline.level = severity_level
else:
    self._base.add_object(LogLine(level=severity_level))

        if hasattr(self._base, "logline"):
            if self._base.logline.level is None:
                self._base.logline.level = severity_level
            else:
                return

        self._base.add_object(LogLine(level=severity_level))

Most field methods are missing return type annotations. Only base(), error(), event(), log(), and user() have -> 'Logger' annotations, but methods like agent(), client(), cloud(), container(), destination(), ecs(), file(), geo(), group(), host(), http_request(), http_response(), network(), observer(), organization(), os(), process(), related(), server(), service(), source(), url(), and user_agent() are missing them.

For consistency and better IDE support, all these methods should have -> 'Logger': return type annotations added after their parameter lists.

Type hint inconsistency: Most field methods use bare types with = None defaults (e.g., str = None), but some methods like base(), error(), event(), log(), and user() properly use Optional[str] = None.

For proper static type checking and consistency, parameters with None defaults should be annotated as Optional[type] rather than just type. This affects methods: agent, client, cloud, container, destination, ecs, file, geo, group, host, http_request, http_response, network, observer, organization, os, process, related, server, service, source, url, and user_agent.

The base() method's defaults merging pattern is inconsistent with other field methods. In base(), defaults override kwargs (line 178: kwargs.update(defaults)), but in all other field methods (agent, client, error, event, etc.), defaults are overridden by kwargs. This inconsistency could lead to unexpected behavior.

Consider changing line 178 from:

kwargs.update(defaults)

to:

if defaults: for key, value in defaults.items(): if key not in kwargs: kwargs[key] = value

This would make the precedence consistent: explicit params > kwargs > defaults

Suggested change

kwargs.update(defaults)

for key, value in defaults.items():

if key not in kwargs:

kwargs[key] = value

Addresses 3 new upstream PR comments: 1. Added return type annotations to all field methods: - All 23 field methods now have -> 'Logger' return type - Improves IDE support and type checking consistency - Methods: agent, client, cloud, container, destination, ecs, file, geo, group, host, http_request, http_response, network, observer, organization, os, process, related, server, service, source, url, user_agent 2. Fixed parameter type hints to use Optional: - Changed bare types (str = None) to Optional[str] = None - Affects all parameters with None defaults across all field methods - Proper static type checking support 3. Fixed base() method defaults precedence bug: - Changed from defaults override kwargs to kwargs override defaults - Now consistent with all other field methods - Precedence: explicit params > kwargs > defaults - Added 2 regression tests to prevent reintroduction All 112 tests passing (110 original + 2 new base() tests).
