Fix typos and improve documentation across various files #8230

riderx · 2025-11-11T20:19:03Z

Corrected multiple typos and enhanced clarity in documentation throughout the codebase, ensuring consistency in variable names and comments.

I used typos-cli command to fix them and double checked by hands all was done properly

- Fixed typo in CHANGELOG.md for Android and CLI regarding Typescript upgrade commit hash. - Corrected variable name from 'statememt' to 'statement' in MockCordovaWebViewImpl.java. - Updated comments and documentation in multiple files to fix spelling errors and improve clarity. - Changed 'overridenUserAgentString' to 'overriddenUserAgentString' in various iOS files for consistency. - Fixed minor typos in HttpRequestHandler.swift and WebViewDelegationHandler.swift. - Corrected test method names in BridgedTypesTests.swift and ConfigurationTests.swift for accuracy.

This is kinda neat - let me look into it. some issues.

We shouldn't point to crate-ci/typos@master
- I swore there was a workflow in here? Is that another PR I lost track of?
This checker seems to change github SHAs in markdown, which is not ok.
Also, the docs changes are no brainers, but the spelling corrections on public methods may be breaking changes. I don't actually think they are in most cases, but I need to check

android/CHANGELOG.md

cli/CHANGELOG.md

core/CHANGELOG.md

ios/CHANGELOG.md

CHANGELOG.md

SHA changes need a revert to start.

@markemer i will revert and add .typo.toml to ensure it doesn't do this

Hey @markemer we should be all good now do you want i merge the github action check in this one as well ?

That one is a bigger deal - but this one should be an easy sell.

The GitHub workflow was made only in the doc repo as PR ionic-team/capacitor-docs#481
I made it here as separate PR as well, added at lint stage #8232

.typos.toml

+  "ios/Capacitor/Capacitor.xcodeproj/xcshareddata/xcschemes/*.xcscheme",
+  "ios-pods-template/**/*.storyboard",
+  "ios-spm-template/**/*.storyboard",
+  "ios/Capacitor/TestsHostApp/**/*.storyboard",


We should exclude CHANGELOG.md so we don't modify any historical context, even if it has typos, IMO.

I went back and forth on that. Probably ok, but yeah, we should probably exempt them, also would save us the SHA headache.

i wasn't sure i will update PR

Yep - I found that one too.

cli/src/sysconfig.ts:31

The doc comment is still grammatically incorrect: "Whether the user choose to signup" should be something like "Whether the user chooses to sign up" (or "chose to sign up"). Since this is documentation, it’s a good opportunity to fully correct it.

  /**
   * Whether the user choose to signup or not.
   *
   * If undefined, the prompt has not been shown.
   */
  readonly signup?: boolean;

.typos.toml

+[default.extend-words]
+# Add any custom words that should not be corrected
+# Format: incorrectword = "incorrectword"
+thn = "thn"


thn is added to the custom dictionary but doesn’t appear to exist anywhere in the repository (and looks like a typo of "then"). Consider removing it until there is a concrete false-positive to suppress, to avoid masking real typos.

Suggested change

thn = "thn"

ios/Capacitor/Capacitor/Codable/JSValueEncoder.swift

    public init(
        optionalEncodingStrategy: OptionalEncodingStrategy = .undefined,
        dateEncodingStrategy: DateEncodingStrategy = .deferredToDate,
        dataEncodingStrategy: DataEncodingStrategy = .deferredToData,
-        nonConformingFloatEncodingStategy: NonConformingFloatEncodingStrategy = .deferred
+        nonConformingFloatEncodingStrategy: NonConformingFloatEncodingStrategy = .deferred
    ) {
        self.options = .init(
            optionalStrategy: optionalEncodingStrategy,
            dateStrategy: dateEncodingStrategy,
            dataStrategy: dataEncodingStrategy,
-            nonConformingFloatStrategy: nonConformingFloatEncodingStategy
+            nonConformingFloatStrategy: nonConformingFloatEncodingStrategy


Renaming the public initializer argument label from nonConformingFloatEncodingStategy to nonConformingFloatEncodingStrategy is a source-breaking API change for Swift callers. Consider keeping a deprecated overload with the old label (forwarding to the new init) or deferring this rename to a major version bump.
