Duplicated Code

Duplicated code can lead to software that is hard to understand and difficult to change. The Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle states:

Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.

When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).

Tuning

This issue has a mass of 36.

We set useful threshold defaults for the languages we support but you may want to adjust these settings based on your project guidelines.

The threshold configuration represents the minimum mass a code block must have to be analyzed for duplication. The lower the threshold, the more fine-grained the comparison.

If the engine is too easily reporting duplication, try raising the threshold. If you suspect that the engine isn't catching enough duplication, try lowering the threshold. The best setting tends to differ from language to language.

See codeclimate-duplication's documentation for more information about tuning the mass threshold in your .codeclimate.yml.

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)

This cop checks the indentation of the first element in an array literal where the opening bracket and the first element are on separate lines. The other elements' indentations are handled by the AlignArray cop.

By default, array literals that are arguments in a method call with parentheses, and where the opening square bracket of the array is on the same line as the opening parenthesis of the method call, shall have their first element indented one step (two spaces) more than the position inside the opening parenthesis.

Other array literals shall have their first element indented one step more than the start of the line where the opening square bracket is.

This default style is called 'specialinsideparentheses'. Alternative styles are 'consistent' and 'align_brackets'. Here are examples:

Example: EnforcedStyle: specialinsideparentheses (default)

# The `special_inside_parentheses` style enforces that the first
# element in an array literal where the opening bracket and first
# element are on seprate lines is indented one step (two spaces) more
# than the position inside the opening parenthesis.

#bad
array = [
  :value
]
and_in_a_method_call([
  :no_difference
                     ])

#good
array = [
  :value
]
but_in_a_method_call([
                       :its_like_this
                     ])

Example: EnforcedStyle: consistent

# The `consistent` style enforces that the first element in an array
# literal where the opening bracket and the first element are on
# seprate lines is indented the same as an array literal which is not
# defined inside a method call.

#bad
# consistent
array = [
  :value
]
but_in_a_method_call([
                       :its_like_this
])

#good
array = [
  :value
]
and_in_a_method_call([
  :no_difference
])

Example: EnforcedStyle: align_brackets

# The `align_brackets` style enforces that the opening and closing
# brackets are indented to the same position.

#bad
# align_brackets
and_now_for_something = [
                          :completely_different
]

#good
# align_brackets
and_now_for_something = [
                          :completely_different
                        ]

If the else branch of a conditional consists solely of an if node, it can be combined with the else to become an elsif. This helps to keep the nesting level from getting too deep.

Example:

# bad
if condition_a
  action_a
else
  if condition_b
    action_b
  else
    action_c
  end
end

# good
if condition_a
  action_a
elsif condition_b
  action_b
else
  action_c
end

This cop checks for uses of the deprecated class method usages.

Example:

# bad

File.exists?(some_path)

Example:

# good

File.exist?(some_path)

This cop checks for uses of the keyword not instead of !.

Example:

# bad - parentheses are required because of op precedence
x = (not something)

# good
x = !something

This cop checks for every useless assignment to local variable in every scope. The basic idea for this cop was from the warning of ruby -cw:

assigned but unused variable - foo

Currently this cop has advanced logic that detects unreferenced reassignments and properly handles varied cases such as branch, loop, rescue, ensure, etc.

Example:

# bad

def some_method
  some_var = 1
  do_something
end

Example:

# good

def some_method
  some_var = 1
  do_something(some_var)
end

Checks that operators have space around them, except for ** which should not have surrounding space.

Example:

# bad
total = 3*4
"apple"+"juice"
my_number = 38/4
a ** b

# good
total = 3 * 4
"apple" + "juice"
my_number = 38 / 4
a**b

This cop makes sure that Ruby source files have snake_case names. Ruby scripts (i.e. source files with a shebang in the first line) are ignored.

Example:

# bad
lib/layoutManager.rb

anything/usingCamelCase

# good
lib/layout_manager.rb

anything/using_snake_case.rake

This cop can check for array literals made up of word-like strings, that are not using the %w() syntax.

Alternatively, it can check for uses of the %w() syntax, in projects which do not want to include that syntax.

Configuration option: MinSize If set, arrays with fewer elements than this value will not trigger the cop. For example, a MinSize of 3 will not enforce a style on an array of 2 or fewer elements.

Example: EnforcedStyle: percent (default)

# good
%w[foo bar baz]

# bad
['foo', 'bar', 'baz']

Example: EnforcedStyle: brackets

# good
['foo', 'bar', 'baz']

# bad
%w[foo bar baz]
