Motivation
The api-ref migration audit's
needs_docstringbucket includes a fewhelper modules that live outside
server/endpoint/andmodels/. Theyeach ship a small number of small functions, and none of them had
docstrings. Missing docstrings mean Sphinx has nothing to render on the
generated page under #1832, so users looking up
parse_datetimeor theexponential-backoff constants find bare signatures with no explanation.
Behavior change
Docs only. No runtime code changes.
Four commits, one file each:
filesys_helpers.py— one-line docstring on each of the helper functionsnamespace.py— one-line docstring on the module and theNamespaceclassdatetime_helpers.py— one-line docstrings ontimestamp,parse_datetime,format_datetime, and theUTCtzinfo classexponential_backoff.py+config.py— one-line docstrings on the backoffhelper and the config module's public constants
Each docstring states what the function does in one sentence. Nothing
prescriptive — these helpers are stable and the docstrings are meant to
be captured by Sphinx, not to change behavior.
Test plan
black --checkclean.will render the new docstrings.
