Pull Request Overview
This PR adds Google-style docstrings to three core Python CDK modules to improve documentation clarity for LLMs and connector developers. The changes convert existing documentation from :param: style to modern Google-style format with Args: and Returns: sections.
Key changes:
- Converted docstrings to concise Google-style format across base classes
- Added structured
Args:andReturns:sections for complex methods - Simplified docstrings for straightforward methods to one-line descriptions

The docstring for streams() is missing a Returns: section to document that it returns a List[Stream], which would be helpful for developers implementing this abstract method.

No, Copilot. No point in documenting what the function signature already declares. DRY is better.

Closing for now. No further action needed. I think this is fine as a test. I might consider next time doing all source classes in on PR and all stream classes in a separate pr, etc. |
docs: Add Google-style docstrings to core Python CDK modules
Summary
Added concise Google-style docstrings to three core Python CDK modules to improve documentation for LLMs and connector developers:
AbstractSource (
airbyte_cdk/sources/abstract_source.py): Documented the base class and all public/abstract methods includingcheck_connection(),streams(),discover(),check(),read(), and helper methods.HttpStream (
airbyte_cdk/sources/streams/http/http.py): Documented the class and key abstract methods that connector developers must implement:url_base,path(),next_page_token(),parse_response(), plus common override methods likerequest_params()andrequest_headers().YamlDeclarativeSource (
airbyte_cdk/sources/declarative/yaml_declarative_source.py): Documented the entry point class and__init__()method with full parameter descriptions.Style changes:
:param:style to Google-styleArgs:/Returns:formatReview & Testing Checklist for Human
""", ends with period, blank line before Args if present)check_connection(),parse_response(), and state management methodsNotes
