Too Many Methods is a special case of LargeClass.

Example

Given this configuration

TooManyMethods:
  max_methods: 3

and this code:

class TooManyMethods
  def one; end
  def two; end
  def three; end
  def four; end
end

Reek would emit the following warning:

test.rb -- 1 warning:
  [1]:TooManyMethods has at least 4 methods (TooManyMethods)

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

This cop looks for delegations that could have been created automatically with the delegate method.

Safe navigation &. is ignored because Rails' allow_nil option checks not just for nil but also delegates if nil responds to the delegated method.

The EnforceForPrefixed option (defaulted to true) means that using the target object as a prefix of the method name without using the delegate method will be a violation. When set to false, this case is legal.

Example:

# bad
def bar
  foo.bar
end

# good
delegate :bar, to: :foo

# good
def bar
  foo&.bar
end

# good
private
def bar
  foo.bar
end

# EnforceForPrefixed: true
# bad
def foo_bar
  foo.bar
end

# good
delegate :bar, to: :foo, prefix: true

# EnforceForPrefixed: false
# good
def foo_bar
  foo.bar
end

# good
delegate :bar, to: :foo, prefix: true

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

module Baz
  # ...
end

# good
module Baz
  # ...
end
