Classes and modules are the units of reuse and release. It is therefore considered good practice to annotate every class and module with a brief comment outlining its responsibilities.
Example
Given
class Dummy
# Do things...
end
Reek would emit the following warning:
test.rb -- 1 warning:
[1]:Dummy has no descriptive comment (IrresponsibleModule)
Fixing this is simple - just an explaining comment:
# The Dummy class is responsible for ...
class Dummy
# Do things...
end
RecurringTodosHelper#recurring_todo_tag_list calls 't.name' 3 times Open

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.

An Uncommunicative Variable Name
is a variable name that doesn't communicate its intent well enough.
Poor names make it hard for the reader to build a mental picture of what's going on in the code. They can also be mis-interpreted; and they hurt the flow of reading, because the reader must slow down to interpret the names.
Tagging a string as html safe may be a security risk. Open
return content_tag :span, tag_list.html_safe, :class => "tags"
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for the use of output safety calls like htmlsafe, raw, and safeconcat. These methods do not escape content. They simply return a SafeBuffer containing the content as is. Instead, use safe_join to join content and escape it and concat to concatenate content and escape it, ensuring its safety.
Example:
user_content = "hi"
# bad
"#{user_content}
".html_safe
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "hi
"
# good
content_tag(:p, user_content)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "<b>hi</b>
"
# bad
out = ""
out << "#{user_content} "
out << "#{user_content} "
out.html_safe
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "hi
hi "
# good
out = []
out << content_tag(:li, user_content)
out << content_tag(:li, user_content)
safe_join(out)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer
# "<b>hi</b>
<b>hi</b> "
# bad
out = "trusted content
".html_safe
out.safe_concat(user_content)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "trusted_content
hi"
# good
out = "trusted content
".html_safe
out.concat(user_content)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer
# "trusted_content
<b>hi</b>"
# safe, though maybe not good style
out = "trusted content"
result = out.concat(user_content)
# => String "trusted contenthi"
# because when rendered in ERB the String will be escaped:
# <%= result %>
# => trusted content<b>hi</b>
# bad
(user_content + " " + content_tag(:span, user_content)).html_safe
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "hi <span><b>hi</b></span>"
# good
safe_join([user_content, " ", content_tag(:span, user_content)])
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer
# "<b>hi</b> <span><b>hi</b></span>"

This cop is designed to help upgrade to Ruby 3.0. It will add the
comment # frozen_string_literal: true
to the top of files to
enable frozen string literals. Frozen string literals may be default
in Ruby 3.0. The comment will be added below a shebang and encoding
comment. The frozen string literal comment is only valid in Ruby 2.3+.
Example: EnforcedStyle: when_needed (default)
# The `when_needed` style will add the frozen string literal comment
# to files only when the `TargetRubyVersion` is set to 2.3+.
# bad
module Foo
# ...
end
# good
# frozen_string_literal: true
module Foo
# ...
end
Example: EnforcedStyle: always
# The `always` style will always add the frozen string literal comment
# to a file, regardless of the Ruby version or if `freeze` or `<<` are
# called on a string literal.
# bad
module Bar
# ...
end
# good
# frozen_string_literal: true
module Bar
# ...
end
Example: EnforcedStyle: never
# The `never` will enforce that the frozen string literal comment does
# not exist in a file.
# bad
# frozen_string_literal: true

Check that the keys, separators, and values of a multi-line hash literal are aligned according to configuration. The configuration options are:
- key (left align keys)
- separator (align hash rockets and colons, right align keys)
- table (left align keys, hash rockets, and values)
The treatment of hashes passed as the last argument to a method call can also be configured. The options are:
- always_inspect
- always_ignore
- ignore_implicit (without curly braces)
- ignore_explicit (with curly braces)
Example:
# EnforcedHashRocketStyle: key (default)
# EnforcedColonStyle: key (default)
# good
{
foo: bar,
ba: baz
}
{
:foo => bar,
:ba => baz
}
# bad
