Duplication occurs when two fragments of code look nearly identical, or when two fragments of code have nearly identical effects at some conceptual level.
Reek implements a check for Duplicate Method Call.
Example
Here's a very much simplified and contrived example. The following method will report a warning:
def double_thing()
@other.thing + @other.thing
end
One quick approach to silence Reek would be to refactor the code thus:
def double_thing()
thing = @other.thing
thing + thing
end
A slightly different approach would be to replace all calls of double_thing
by calls to @other.double_thing
:
class Other
def double_thing()
thing + thing
end
end
The approach you take will depend on balancing other factors in your code.

A class that publishes a setter for an instance variable invites client classes to become too intimate with its inner workings, and in particular with its representation of state.
The same holds to a lesser extent for getters, but Reek doesn't flag those.
Example
Given:
class Klass
attr_accessor :dummy
end
Reek would emit the following warning:
reek test.rb
test.rb -- 1 warning:
[2]:Klass declares the writable attribute dummy (Attribute)
Account::ProviderDomains#dedicated_domain performs a nil-check Open
if superdomain && !domain.nil? && domain.ends_with?(superdomain)

A NilCheck
is a type check. Failures of NilCheck
violate the "tell, don't ask" principle.
Additionally, type checks often mask bigger problems in your source code like not using OOP and / or polymorphism when you should.
Example
Given
class Klass
def nil_checker(argument)
if argument.nil?
puts "argument isn't nil!"
end
end
end
Reek would emit the following warning:
test.rb -- 1 warning:
[3]:Klass#nil_checker performs a nil-check. (NilCheck)
Account::ProviderDomains#superdomain doesn't depend on instance state (maybe move it to another class?) Open

A Utility Function is any instance method that has no dependency on the state of the instance.
