Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

Use =~
in places where the MatchData
returned by #match
will not be used. Open
if k.match(/^client_data\./)
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop identifies the use of Regexp#match
or String#match
, which
returns #<MatchData>
/nil
. The return value of =~
is an integral
index/nil
and is more performant.
Example:
# bad
do_something if str.match(/regex/)
while regex.match('str')
do_something
end
# good
method(str =~ /regex/)
return value unless regex =~ 'str'

Use safe navigation (&.

This cop transforms usages of a method call safeguarded by a non nil
check for the variable whose method is being called to
safe navigation (&.
).
Configuration option: ConvertCodeThatCanStartToReturnNil
The default for this is false
. When configured to true
, this will
check for code in the format !foo.nil? && foo.bar
. As it is written,
the return of this code is limited to false
and whatever the return
of the method is. If this is converted to safe navigation,
foo&.bar
can start returning nil
as well as what the method
returns.
Example:
# bad
foo.bar if foo
foo.bar(param1, param2) if foo
foo.bar { |e| e.something } if foo
foo.bar(param) { |e| e.something } if foo
foo.bar if !foo.nil?
