43-50: LGTM: Improved readability with a minor suggestionThe reformatting of the
DemographicDataconstructor and its stream operation enhances code readability without changing the underlying logic. This is consistent with the formatting improvements made in the previous segment.For consistency with the previous segment, consider using parentheses around the condition in the ternary operator:
- return (!(v == null || v.isMissingNode())) + return ((v != null && !v.isMissingNode())) ? new DemographicData.DemographicField(AppUtils.snakeToCamelCase(fieldName), v.textValue()) : null;This change would make the null check consistent with the style used for
facilityNodeandpatientNode.
56-57: Excellent improvement: Enhanced null safety with fallback valueThis change significantly improves the robustness of the
toInteractionWithScore()method by implementing a fallback value mechanism. The introduction of thescoreNodevariable and the null-safe score assignment using a ternary operator effectively prevents potential null pointer exceptions.This enhancement aligns perfectly with the PR objective of implementing a fallback value to avoid null pointer exceptions. It also addresses the issue mentioned in the linked task (API failing on interaction search) by ensuring that the method always returns a valid score, even when the score node is missing or null.
Consider adding a constant for the default score value (0.0f) to improve maintainability and make it easier to adjust the default value in the future if needed.

36-41: LGTM: Improved null safety and readabilityThe changes to the
SourceIdconstructor call enhance both readability and null safety. The added null checks forfacilityNodeandpatientNodeensure that the code handles potential null or missing nodes gracefully, reducing the risk of null pointer exceptions.
Line range hint
1-59: Summary: Successful implementation of fallback value mechanismThis PR successfully achieves its objective of implementing a fallback value mechanism to prevent null pointer exceptions. The changes made to the
JsonNodeInteractionclass, particularly in thetoInteractionWithScore()method, directly address the issue of API failures during interaction searches.Key improvements:
- Enhanced null safety in the
SourceIdconstructor call.- Improved readability through consistent formatting.
- Implementation of a fallback value (0.0f) for the interaction score when the score node is null or missing.
These changes collectively contribute to a more robust and reliable codebase, reducing the likelihood of null pointer exceptions and improving the overall stability of the application.
