Method initialize
has 5 arguments (exceeds 4 allowed). Consider refactoring. Open
def initialize(name, type = nil, description = nil, **kwargs, &block)
Redundant self
detected. Open
self.instance_eval &block if block_given?
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for redundant uses of self
.
The usage of self
is only needed when:
Sending a message to same object with zero arguments in presence of a method name clash with an argument or a local variable.
Calling an attribute writer to prevent an local variable assignment.
Note, with using explicit self you can only send messages with public or protected scope, you cannot send private messages this way.
Note we allow uses of self
with operators because it would be awkward
otherwise.
Example:
# bad
def foo(bar)
self.baz
end
# good
def foo(bar)
self.bar # Resolves name clash with the argument.
end
def foo
bar = 1
self.bar # Resolves name clash with the local variable.
end
def foo
%w[x y z].select do |bar|
self.bar == bar # Resolves name clash with argument of the block.
end
end
Ambiguous block operator. Parenthesize the method arguments if it's surely a block operator, or add a whitespace to the right of the &
if it should be a binary AND. Open
self.instance_eval &block if block_given?
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for ambiguous operators in the first argument of a method invocation without parentheses.
Example:
# bad
# The `*` is interpreted as a splat operator but it could possibly be
# a `*` method invocation (i.e. `do_something.*(some_array)`).
do_something *some_array
Example:
# good
# With parentheses, there's no ambiguity.
do_something(*some_array)
Redundant curly braces around a hash parameter. Open
Attribute.new({
name: @_name,
type: @_type,
description: @_description,
options: @_options,
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for braces around the last parameter in a method call
if the last parameter is a hash.
It supports braces
, no_braces
and context_dependent
styles.
Example: EnforcedStyle: braces
# The `braces` style enforces braces around all method
# parameters that are hashes.
# bad
some_method(x, y, a: 1, b: 2)
# good
some_method(x, y, {a: 1, b: 2})
Example: EnforcedStyle: no_braces (default)
# The `no_braces` style checks that the last parameter doesn't
# have braces around it.
# bad
some_method(x, y, {a: 1, b: 2})
# good
some_method(x, y, a: 1, b: 2)
Example: EnforcedStyle: context_dependent
# The `context_dependent` style checks that the last parameter
# doesn't have braces around it, but requires braces if the
# second to last parameter is also a hash literal.
# bad
some_method(x, y, {a: 1, b: 2})
some_method(x, y, {a: 1, b: 2}, a: 1, b: 2)
# good
some_method(x, y, a: 1, b: 2)
some_method(x, y, {a: 1, b: 2}, {a: 1, b: 2})
