Hi maintainers,
I’m Niktia Pandey, a B.tech CSE AIML 2nd-year student.
I’m following up on PR #59 . Here’s the link:
main ← Nikitaa104:add-line-number-support
opened 04:12PM - 15 Nov 25 UTC
# Summary
This PR introduces approximate line-number detection in the Explain E… rror plugin.
It enhances the extracted error logs by prefixing each matched line with its corresponding line number.
# Why?
This aligns with the first improvement idea suggested by @trimarchimichael:
"Investigate if it is possible to add the line numbers, approx where the build fails in the explanation."
# What’s Added?
- Line numbers appended during log extraction
- Cleaner and more informative error context
- Can assist users in identifying failing parts of pipeline logs faster
### Checklist
- [x] Tested locally
- [x] Line numbers visible in error log extraction
- [x] No breaking changes introduced
“Add line number extraction capability for error explanation.”
I believe I’ve addressed the previous comments, and it should be ready for another review.
Could someone please take a look when possible? I’m eager to iterate if needed.
Thanks in advance!

I suggest continuing in your PR instead of here.

Thankyou for your suggestion. But I think PR 59 is not related to that project which I have chosen.
Can you please suggest me what should I do to make my first contribution merged.
I would be really very grateful to you.
Regards,
Nikita.
