This cop identifies places where a case-insensitive string comparison can better be implemented using casecmp.

Example:

# bad
str.downcase == 'abc'
str.upcase.eql? 'ABC'
'abc' == str.downcase
'ABC'.eql? str.upcase
str.downcase == str.downcase

# good
str.casecmp('ABC').zero?
'abc'.casecmp(str).zero?

This cop checks if usage of %() or %Q() matches configuration.

Example: EnforcedStyle: bare_percent (default)

# bad
%Q(He said: "#{greeting}")
%q{She said: 'Hi'}

# good
%(He said: "#{greeting}")
%{She said: 'Hi'}

Example: EnforcedStyle: percent_q

# bad
%|He said: "#{greeting}"|
%/She said: 'Hi'/

# good
%Q|He said: "#{greeting}"|
%q/She said: 'Hi'/

This cop checks for missing top-level documentation of classes and modules. Classes with no body are exempt from the check and so are namespace modules - modules that have nothing in their bodies except classes, other modules, or constant definitions.

The documentation requirement is annulled if the class or module has a "#:nodoc:" comment next to it. Likewise, "#:nodoc: all" does the same for all its children.

Example:

# bad
class Person
  # ...
end

# good
# Description/Explanation of Person class
class Person
  # ...
end

This cop checks for whitespace within string interpolations.

Example: EnforcedStyle: no_space (default)

# bad
   var = "This is the #{ space } example"

# good
   var = "This is the #{no_space} example"

Example: EnforcedStyle: space

# bad
   var = "This is the #{no_space} example"

# good
   var = "This is the #{ space } example"

This cop enforces the consistent usage of %-literal delimiters.

Specify the 'default' key to set all preferred delimiters at once. You can continue to specify individual preferred delimiters to override the default.

Example:

# Style/PercentLiteralDelimiters:
#   PreferredDelimiters:
#     default: '[]'
#     '%i':    '()'

# good
%w[alpha beta] + %i(gamma delta)

# bad
%W(alpha #{beta})

# bad
%I(alpha beta)
