Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation provides both Bash (with jq) and PowerShell examples for retrieving host names via the Ambari REST API. However, the PowerShell example is more detailed, including credential prompts, and is presented immediately after the Bash example. There is a slight bias in that the PowerShell example uses Windows-specific cmdlets and patterns, and the Bash example does not include instructions for Windows users who may use WSL or Git Bash. The documentation does not mention Linux tools or environments explicitly, nor does it provide troubleshooting or installation guidance for jq on Linux.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that both Bash and PowerShell examples are equally detailed and cover authentication and output parsing.
- Explicitly mention that the Bash example works on Linux, macOS, and Windows (with WSL or Git Bash), and provide installation instructions for jq.
- Consider presenting the Bash (Linux/macOS) example first, or clarify that both are supported equally.
- Add troubleshooting tips for common issues on both Linux and Windows platforms.
- Where possible, provide parity in explanation and context for both operating systems, including any OS-specific caveats.
