Bias Analysis

Detected 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 parsing, while the Bash example is more minimal. The mention of 'ConvertFrom-Json' (PowerShell) appears before the Bash 'jq' tool in the explanatory text, and the PowerShell example is given immediately after the Bash example, suggesting a slight Windows-first and PowerShell-heavy bias. There are no Linux-specific tools or patterns highlighted beyond the basic Bash/jq example.
Recommendations
  • Provide equally detailed Bash/Linux examples, including credential handling and error checking, to match the PowerShell example's depth.
  • Mention Linux/Bash tools (like jq) before or alongside Windows/PowerShell tools in explanatory text.
  • Add a note about installing jq on Linux if not present, similar to how PowerShell modules are referenced.
  • Consider including examples for other shells/environments (e.g., zsh, fish) or scripting languages (e.g., Python) to broaden platform parity.
