# DashboardService Chunk Model Fix
**Date**: 2026-02-04
**Status**: ✅ FIXED
---
## Problem
DashboardService was trying to access `chunk.metadata.X` and `chunk.content.text`, but the actual Chunk model from `ytpipe/core/models.py` has these fields directly on the chunk object.
**Error Pattern**:
```python
# INCORRECT (old code)
chunk.metadata.quality # ❌ AttributeError: 'Chunk' has no attribute 'metadata'
chunk.metadata.duration # ❌ AttributeError
chunk.content.text # ❌ AttributeError: 'Chunk' has no attribute 'content'
# CORRECT (actual Chunk model)
chunk.quality_score # ✅ float (0-10 scale)
chunk.text # ✅ str
chunk.word_count # ✅ int
chunk.timestamp_start # ✅ Optional[str]
chunk.timestamp_end # ✅ Optional[str]
```
---
## Actual Chunk Model
From `ytpipe/core/models.py`:
```python
class Chunk(BaseModel):
id: int # Chunk ID (0-indexed)
text: str # Chunk text content
word_count: int # Word count in chunk
start_char: int # Start character position
end_char: int # End character position
quality_score: float = 8.0 # Quality score (0-10)
timestamp_start: Optional[str] = None # Start timestamp (MM:SS)
timestamp_end: Optional[str] = None # End timestamp (MM:SS)
embedding: Optional[List[float]] = None # 384-dim embedding
def has_embedding(self) -> bool:
"""Check if chunk has embedding."""
return self.embedding is not None and len(self.embedding) == 384
def has_timestamps(self) -> bool:
"""Check if chunk has timestamps."""
return self.timestamp_start is not None and self.timestamp_end is not None
```

## Changes Made
### File: `/Users/lech/PROJECTS_all/PROJECT_ytpipe/ytpipe/services/exporters/dashboard.py`
#### 1. Fixed Quality Distribution Calculation (Line 151-161)
**Before**:
```python
if hasattr(chunk.metadata, 'quality'):
quality_val = chunk.metadata.quality.value
if quality_val >= 3:
quality_distribution["high"] += 1
# ...
```
**After**:
```python
# Use quality_score from Chunk model (default 8.0, range 0-10)
quality_score = chunk.quality_score
if quality_score >= 7.0:
quality_distribution["high"] += 1
elif quality_score >= 5.0:
quality_distribution["medium"] += 1
else:
quality_distribution["low"] += 1
```
**Quality Thresholds**:
- **High**: quality_score >= 7.0
- **Medium**: 5.0 <= quality_score < 7.0
- **Low**: quality_score < 5.0
---
#### 2. Fixed Chunk Cards Generation (Line 261-291)
**Before**:
```python
text_preview = chunk.summary if hasattr(chunk, 'summary') else (chunk.text or "")[:200]
word_count = len(chunk.text.split()) if chunk.text else 0
if hasattr(chunk.metadata, 'quality'):
quality_val = chunk.metadata.quality.value
# ...
chunk_cards.append(f"""
{word_count} words • {chunk.metadata.duration:.1f}s
""")
```
**After**:
```python
text_preview = (chunk.text or "")[:200]
word_count = chunk.word_count
# Determine quality badge based on quality_score (0-10 scale)
quality_score = chunk.quality_score
if quality_score >= 7.0:
quality_class, quality_label = "badge-success", "High"
elif quality_score >= 5.0:
quality_class, quality_label = "badge-warning", "Medium"
else:
quality_class, quality_label = "badge-danger", "Low"
# Build timestamp display if available
timestamp_display = ""
if chunk.has_timestamps():
timestamp_display = f" • {chunk.timestamp_start} - {chunk.timestamp_end}"
chunk_cards.append(f"""
{word_count} words{timestamp_display}
""")
```
**Key Changes**:
- Use `chunk.text` directly (not `chunk.content.text`)
- Use `chunk.word_count` (not manual split)
- Use `chunk.quality_score` (not `chunk.metadata.quality`)
- Use `chunk.has_timestamps()` method
- Display timestamps if available

## Testing
### Test Script: `/Users/lech/PROJECTS_all/PROJECT_ytpipe/test_dashboard_fix.py`
**Purpose**: Validate DashboardService works with actual Chunk model
**Test Cases**:
1. Create VideoMetadata with realistic data
2. Create 4 Chunks with varying quality scores (8.5, 6.5, 4.0, 7.0)
3. Include chunks with and without timestamps
4. Generate dashboard HTML
5. Validate no AttributeError raised
6. Verify HTML content includes expected data
**Run Test**:
```bash
cd /Users/lech/PROJECTS_all/PROJECT_ytpipe
source venv/bin/activate
python test_dashboard_fix.py
```
**Expected Output**:
```
Testing DashboardService with Chunk model fix...
✅ SUCCESS: Dashboard generated at ./test_output/comprehensive_dashboard.html
- No AttributeError raised
- All chunk fields accessed correctly
- File size: XXXX bytes
✅ HTML validation passed
- Title found: ✓
- Channel found: ✓
- Word counts found: ✓
- Timestamps found: ✓
🎉 All tests passed! DashboardService is fixed.
