Description

This is a running issue to track the requirement of having docstrings on the things that they document.

An example where this is not the case is many of the dataclass attributes, such as this:

https://github.com/OpenwaterHealth/OpenLIFU-python/blob/d322c3a8e927b86d82027e63ea226566c2a4f9fe/src/openlifu/db/session.py#L27-L43

(Here we see the attributes of a Session are documented at the class level rather than on the attributes themselves.)


Update: More generally, this issue can represent the project of documenting OpenLIFU-python.

Research direction

Start with the example in src/openlifu/db/session.py, especially lines 27–43, and compare the Session dataclass attributes with their class-level documentation. Then inspect the surrounding OpenLIFU-python code to identify other undocumented items. Done means the documented information is attached to the things it documents, but this issue does not define a bounded set of files or a test command.
