Description

The query field in EasyUIBasedAppGenerateEntity is currently typed as str | None with a default value of None. However, after reviewing all usages throughout the codebase, this field is always treated as a string and never explicitly checked for None.

This refactor changes the type hint from str | None = None to str = "" to better reflect the actual usage pattern and improve type safety.

Motivation

  1. Type Safety: The current optional type allows None values, but the codebase always treats this field as a string. This creates potential for type-related issues and confusion.

  2. Code Clarity: Making the field non-optional with an empty string default more accurately represents how the field is used in practice.

  3. Consistency: Using a non-None default value eliminates the need for None checks throughout the codebase, making the code cleaner and more maintainable.

  4. Better Developer Experience: With a proper non-optional type hint, IDEs and type checkers can provide better autocomplete and error detection.
