refactor: added helper function performSessionEnd #1113

jaissica12 · 2025-11-05T15:30:26Z

Background

Session timeout calculations were duplicated in initialize() and endSession() methods
Both methods checked for session timeout but used different approaches:
- initialize() used Date object comparison
- endSession() used millisecond arithmetic with inverted logic
Session end operations (logging event, clearing data, nullifying session) were scattered inline within endSession()

What Has Changed

Added performSessionEnd helper - Extracted session end operations into a dedicated function
Added hasSessionTimedOut helper - Consolidates duplicate session timeout calculation logic

Screenshots/Video

{Include any screenshots or video demonstrating the new feature or fix, if applicable}

Checklist

I have performed a self-review of my own code.
I have made corresponding changes to the documentation.
I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works.
I have tested this locally.

Additional Notes

The original code used different comparison operators:
initialize() used > - session expired after 30:00.000
endSession() used >= - session expired at 30:00.000

As of now I have standardized on >=, let me know if you think otherwise

src/sessionManager.ts

+    function hasSessionTimedOut(lastEventTimestamp: number): boolean {
+        const sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds: number =
+            mpInstance._Store.SDKConfig.sessionTimeout * 60000;
+        const timeSinceLastEvent: number =
+            new Date().getTime() - lastEventTimestamp;
+
+        return timeSinceLastEvent >= sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds;
+    }


Let's avoid pulling in the entire store when we only need a single value.

Suggested change

function hasSessionTimedOut(lastEventTimestamp: number): boolean {

const sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds: number =

mpInstance._Store.SDKConfig.sessionTimeout * 60000;

const timeSinceLastEvent: number =

new Date().getTime() - lastEventTimestamp;

return timeSinceLastEvent >= sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds;

}

function hasSessionTimedOut(lastEventTimestamp: number, sessionTimeout: number): boolean {

const sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds: number = sessionTimeout * 60000;

const timeSinceLastEvent: number =

new Date().getTime() - lastEventTimestamp;

return timeSinceLastEvent >= sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds;

}

src/sessionManager.ts

+        const sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds: number =
+            mpInstance._Store.SDKConfig.sessionTimeout * 60000;
+        const timeSinceLastEvent: number =
+            new Date().getTime() - lastEventTimestamp;


I think I agree with SonarCloud. let's use Date.now() instead of new Date().getTime().

alexs-mparticle · 2025-12-10T16:25:32Z

src/sessionManager.ts

-                        sessionTimeoutInMilliseconds
-                )
-            ) {
+            if (hasSessionTimedOut(mpInstance._Store.dateLastEventSent.getTime())) {


If you follow my suggestion below, this can be destructured and cleaned up.

Suggested change

if (hasSessionTimedOut(mpInstance._Store.dateLastEventSent.getTime())) {

const { dateLastEventSent, SDKConfig } = mpInstance._Store;

const { sessionTimeout } = SDKConfig;

if (hasSessionTimedOut(dateLastEventSent.getTime(), sessionTimeout)) {

Thanks for suggesting this, cleaned up initialize function

alexs-mparticle · 2025-12-10T16:26:59Z

src/sessionManager.ts

+        mpInstance._Events.logEvent({
+            messageType: Types.MessageType.SessionEnd,
+        });
+        mpInstance._Store.sessionStartDate = null;


Can we just add this line to nullifySession()?

Added this.sessionStartDate = null; to Store. nullifySession()

Pull request overview

This PR refactors session management logic by extracting two helper functions to eliminate code duplication and improve maintainability. The refactoring consolidates timeout calculations that previously used different comparison approaches and extracts session end operations into a reusable function.

Key Changes:

Extracted hasSessionTimedOut() helper to unify session timeout logic previously duplicated between initialize() and endSession() with different comparison operators
Extracted performSessionEnd() helper to consolidate session end operations (logging, clearing data, resetting timer)
Standardized on >= comparison operator for timeout checks (expires at exactly 30 minutes)

File	Description
src/sessionManager.ts	Refactored session timeout and end logic into two helper functions; simplified `initialize()` and `endSession()` by delegating to the new helpers
src/store.ts	Updated `nullifySession()` to include clearing `sessionStartDate`, consolidating cleanup logic
test/src/tests-session-manager.ts	Added comprehensive test coverage for both new helper functions with 11 new test cases covering timeout scenarios, session end operations, and edge cases

+                expect(mpInstance._Store.sessionId).to.equal(null);


This test has a potential timing issue. The test creates exactlyThirtyMinutesAgo using the current time, but by the time hasSessionTimedOut() is called internally (which uses Date.now()), a few milliseconds may have passed. This could make the elapsed time slightly more than 30 minutes, causing the test to pass for the wrong reason. Consider using fake timers (sinon.useFakeTimers) to control time precisely, or add a small buffer to ensure the test is deterministic.

Suggested change

const now = new Date();

const exactlyThirtyMinutesAgo = new Date();

exactlyThirtyMinutesAgo.setMinutes(now.getMinutes() - 30);

mParticle.init(apiKey, window.mParticle.config);

const mpInstance = mParticle.getInstance();

sinon.stub(mpInstance._Persistence, 'getPersistence').returns({

gs: {

les: exactlyThirtyMinutesAgo.getTime(),

sid: 'TEST-ID',

},

});

mpInstance._SessionManager.endSession();

// At exactly 30 minutes, session should be expired

expect(mpInstance._Store.sessionId).to.equal(null);

const now = Date.now();

const clock = sinon.useFakeTimers(now);

const thirtyMinutesInMs = 30 * 60 * 1000;

const exactlyThirtyMinutesAgo = new Date(now - thirtyMinutesInMs);

mParticle.init(apiKey, window.mParticle.config);

const mpInstance = mParticle.getInstance();

const getPersistenceStub = sinon.stub(mpInstance._Persistence, 'getPersistence').returns({

gs: {

les: exactlyThirtyMinutesAgo.getTime(),

sid: 'TEST-ID',

},

});

try {

mpInstance._SessionManager.endSession();

// At exactly 30 minutes, session should be expired

expect(mpInstance._Store.sessionId).to.equal(null);

} finally {

getPersistenceStub.restore();

clock.restore();

}

@jaissica12 let's test this in case the robot is telling the truth

src/sessionManager.ts

            }
        }
-
        mpInstance._timeOnSiteTimer?.resetTimer();


The timer reset at this line is redundant when the session has timed out, because performSessionEnd() already resets the timer at line 238. This results in the timer being reset twice when a session times out via the endSession() method. Consider removing this line or moving the timer reset logic into the else block at line 170 to avoid the duplication.

@jaissica12 Can you try making this code change and see if it works? I think it may clean up the rafactor more.

The sinon.stub is not cleaned up after the test. This stub will persist and could affect subsequent tests in this test suite. Use sinon.stub().returns() and restore it in a cleanup hook, or use sinon.restore() at the end of the test, or better yet, wrap this test in a context with its own beforeEach/afterEach to handle stub lifecycle.

+     * @returns true if the session has expired, false otherwise
+     */
+    function hasSessionTimedOut(lastEventTimestamp: number, sessionTimeout: number): boolean {


This might be an edge case, since we lastEventTimestamp and sessionTimeout have default values, but I would add a guard clause here.

alexs-mparticle · 2025-12-19T15:27:03Z

src/sessionManager.ts

-                    messageType: Types.MessageType.SessionEnd,
-                });
-
-                mpInstance._Store.sessionStartDate = null;


I noticed we're not including this line in the performSessionEnd function. Can it be used there? If not, can it be safely removed?
