Useless private
access modifier. Open

This cop checks for redundant access modifiers, including those with no
code, those which are repeated, and leading public
modifiers in a
class or module body. Conditionally-defined methods are considered as
always being defined, and thus access modifiers guarding such methods
are not redundant.
Example:
class Foo
public # this is redundant (default access is public)
def method
end
private # this is not redundant (a method is defined)
def method2
end
private # this is redundant (no following methods are defined)
end
Example:
class Foo
# The following is not redundant (conditionally defined methods are
# considered as always defining a method)
private
if condition?
def method
end
end
protected # this is not redundant (method is defined)
define_method(:method2) do
end
protected # this is redundant (repeated from previous modifier)
[1,2,3].each do |i|
define_method("foo#{i}") do
end
end
# The following is redundant (methods defined on the class'
# singleton class are not affected by the public modifier)
public
def self.method3
end
end
Example:
# Lint/UselessAccessModifier:
# ContextCreatingMethods:
# - concerning
require 'active_support/concern'
class Foo
concerning :Bar do
def some_public_method
end
private
def some_private_method
end
end
# this is not redundant because `concerning` created its own context
private
def some_other_private_method
end
end
Example:
# Lint/UselessAccessModifier:
# MethodCreatingMethods:
# - delegate
require 'active_support/core_ext/module/delegation'
class Foo
# this is not redundant because `delegate` creates methods
private
delegate :method_a, to: :method_b

This cop checks hash literal syntax.
It can enforce either the use of the class hash rocket syntax or the use of the newer Ruby 1.9 syntax (when applicable).
A separate offense is registered for each problematic pair.
The supported styles are:
- ruby19 - forces use of the 1.9 syntax (e.g.
{a: 1}
) when hashes have all symbols for keys - hash_rockets - forces use of hash rockets for all hashes
- nomixedkeys - simply checks for hashes with mixed syntaxes
- ruby19nomixed_keys - forces use of ruby 1.9 syntax and forbids mixed syntax hashes
Example: EnforcedStyle: ruby19 (default)
# bad
{:a => 2}
{b: 1, :c => 2}
# good
{a: 2, b: 1}
{:c => 2, 'd' => 2} # acceptable since 'd' isn't a symbol
{d: 1, 'e' => 2} # technically not forbidden
Example: EnforcedStyle: hash_rockets
# bad
{a: 1, b: 2}
{c: 1, 'd' => 5}
# good
{:a => 1, :b => 2}
Example: EnforcedStyle: nomixedkeys
# bad
{:a => 1, b: 2}
{c: 1, 'd' => 2}
# good
{:a => 1, :b => 2}
{c: 1, d: 2}
Example: EnforcedStyle: ruby19nomixed_keys
# bad
{:a => 1, :b => 2}
{c: 2, 'd' => 3} # should just use hash rockets
# good
{a: 1, b: 2}
