feat(issue-list): add --period flag, pagination progress, and count abbreviation by BYK · Pull Request #289 · getsentry/cli

BYK · 2026-02-24T10:27:30Z

Summary

Three UX improvements to sentry issue list following the auto-pagination work in #274:

Fix implicit time filtering — add --period / -t flag (default 90d) so the CLI matches the UI's default time window instead of the Sentry API's implicit 14d cutoff, which was causing the count discrepancy (e.g. 114 vs 240 issues)
Pagination progress spinner — animated braille spinner on stderr while fetching multiple pages (Fetching issues... 200/500); reuses withProgress<T>() in polling.ts so the animation is consistent with sentry issue explain
Fix COUNT column layout shift — abbreviate event counts ≥10k with K/M/B/T/P/E suffixes (12.3K, 150K, 1.5M) so the column stays exactly 5 chars wide and never overflows

Details

--period alias is -t (time period), not -p (avoids confusion with --platform in other commands)
onPage callback added to listIssuesAllPages for per-page progress hooks
Animation interval changed from 80ms to 50ms (20fps / 500ms full braille cycle), matching the ora/inquirer standard — applies to Seer commands too
Decimal shown only when scaled < 100 (e.g. 12.3K and 1.5M but not 100.0M)

…bbreviation - Add --period flag (default 90d) so the CLI matches the UI time window instead of the API's implicit 14d default; alias -p - Show an animated spinner on stderr (⠋⠙⠹… braille frames, 50ms / 20fps) when auto-paginating beyond 100 issues, updating with Fetching issues... N/limit; suppressed in JSON mode - Abbreviate large event counts (≥10k) with K/M/B suffixes so the COUNT column stays at 5 chars and never causes a layout shift - Add withProgress<T>() to polling.ts, sharing spinner infrastructure (frames, truncation, interval) with the Seer explain/plan commands - Expose onPage callback in listIssuesAllPages for per-page progress hooks

src/lib/formatters/human.ts

src/lib/polling.ts

…st spinner frame immediately - Remove .slice(0, COL_COUNT) from abbreviateCount — the toFixed(1) to Math.round() fallback already guarantees width, and slice would silently corrupt the value if it ever activated - Call scheduleFrame() directly instead of setTimeout(scheduleFrame, ...) in both poll() and withProgress() so the first spinner frame renders immediately

…led < 100 - Extend QUANTIFIERS to include P (peta, 10^15) and E (exa, 10^18) so the output is valid for any realistic input without a slice safety net - Only show the decimal place when scaled < 100, avoiding ugly '100.0M'-style output while still showing '12.3K' and '1.5M' where the decimal adds info

src/lib/formatters/human.ts

src/commands/issue/list.ts

…iod in cursor context key - Fix abbreviateCount: compare rounded1dp (Number(scaled.toFixed(1))) against < 100 instead of raw scaled, preventing '100.0K' when e.g. scaled = 99.95 rounds up - Include period in pagination contextKey so --cursor last doesn't reuse a stale cursor from a query with a different --period value

src/lib/formatters/human.ts

src/lib/api-client.ts

…t limit - Promote to next tier when Math.round(scaled) reaches 1000 (e.g. 999950 → '1000K' was misleading, now correctly shows '1.0M') - Cap onPage reported count at options.limit so progress never shows '120/100' when the last page overshoots the requested limit

src/lib/formatters/human.ts

src/lib/polling.ts

…ER caveat - When at the max (E) tier and rounded >= 1000 with no next tier to promote to, clamp to 999 to guarantee the output always fits within COL_COUNT - Add JSDoc note that Number(raw) loses precision above Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER (~9P), which is beyond any realistic Sentry event count

…d of unguarded padStart padStart only pads, never truncates — a non-numeric raw string would pass through at its original width and break column alignment. Return ' ?' instead to keep COL_COUNT width while visually flagging the unexpected input.

src/commands/issue/list.ts

…xtKey - Track per-target fetched counts and sum them so concurrent multi-project fetches show a stable combined total instead of jumping between values - Escape flags.period with escapeContextKeyValue in contextKey (same treatment as flags.query) to prevent pipe chars in user input from corrupting the key; guard with ?? '90d' fallback for test contexts that omit the flag

…, report NaN counts - Extract startSpinner() from duplicated spinner code in poll() and withProgress() — eliminates ~30 lines of duplication - Set stopped = true unconditionally in poll() finally block, not just in non-JSON mode - Replace fetchedCounts array + reduce with running total + delta tracking in multi-target progress (onPage reports cumulative, not increments) - Use '?'.padStart(COL_COUNT) for NaN placeholder instead of hardcoded spaces, and report to Sentry as a warning for unexpected non-numeric input

Count abbreviation skips exactly 10k

Low Severity

abbreviateCount decides whether to abbreviate based on raw.length <= COL_COUNT, so a count of 10000 (exactly 10k) is not abbreviated even though the feature intent is to abbreviate counts ≥10k. This creates inconsistent formatting right at the threshold.
