This cop enforces using // or %r around regular expressions.

Example: EnforcedStyle: slashes (default)

# bad
snake_case = %r{^[\dA-Z_]+$}

# bad
regex = %r{
  foo
  (bar)
  (baz)
}x

# good
snake_case = /^[\dA-Z_]+$/

# good
regex = /
  foo
  (bar)
  (baz)
/x

Example: EnforcedStyle: percent_r

# bad
snake_case = /^[\dA-Z_]+$/

# bad
regex = /
  foo
  (bar)
  (baz)
/x

# good
snake_case = %r{^[\dA-Z_]+$}

# good
regex = %r{
  foo
  (bar)
  (baz)
}x

Example: EnforcedStyle: mixed

# bad
snake_case = %r{^[\dA-Z_]+$}

# bad
regex = /
  foo
  (bar)
  (baz)
/x

# good
snake_case = /^[\dA-Z_]+$/

# good
regex = %r{
  foo
  (bar)
  (baz)
}x

Example: AllowInnerSlashes: false (default)

# If `false`, the cop will always recommend using `%r` if one or more
# slashes are found in the regexp string.

# bad
x =~ /home\//

# good
x =~ %r{home/}

Example: AllowInnerSlashes: true

# good
x =~ /home\//

This cop looks for uses of the for keyword, or each method. The preferred alternative is set in the EnforcedStyle configuration parameter. An each call with a block on a single line is always allowed, however.

This cop checks for private or protected access modifiers which are applied to a singleton method. These access modifiers do not make singleton methods private/protected. private_class_method can be used for that.

Example:

# bad

class C
  private

  def self.method
    puts 'hi'
  end
end

Example:

# good

class C
  def self.method
    puts 'hi'
  end

  private_class_method :method
end

Example:

# good

class C
  class << self
    private

    def method
      puts 'hi'
    end
  end
end

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 dynamic find_by_* methods. Use find_by instead of dynamic method. See. https://github.com/bbatsov/rails-style-guide#find_by

Example:

# bad
User.find_by_name(name)

# bad
User.find_by_name_and_email(name)

# bad
User.find_by_email!(name)

# good
User.find_by(name: name)

# good
User.find_by(name: name, email: email)

# good
User.find_by!(email: email)

This cop makes sure that predicates are named properly.

Example:

# bad
def is_even?(value)
end

# good
def even?(value)
end

# bad
def has_value?
end

# good
def value?
end

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

This cop checks for uses of DateTime that should be replaced by Date or Time.

Example:

# bad - uses `DateTime` for current time
DateTime.now

# good - uses `Time` for current time
Time.now

# bad - uses `DateTime` for modern date
DateTime.iso8601('2016-06-29')

# good - uses `Date` for modern date
Date.iso8601('2016-06-29')

# good - uses `DateTime` with start argument for historical date
DateTime.iso8601('1751-04-23', Date::ENGLAND)

This cop checks for uses of DateTime that should be replaced by Date or Time.

Example:

# bad - uses `DateTime` for current time
DateTime.now

# good - uses `Time` for current time
Time.now

# bad - uses `DateTime` for modern date
DateTime.iso8601('2016-06-29')

# good - uses `Date` for modern date
Date.iso8601('2016-06-29')

# good - uses `DateTime` with start argument for historical date
DateTime.iso8601('1751-04-23', Date::ENGLAND)

This cop looks for uses of the for keyword, or each method. The preferred alternative is set in the EnforcedStyle configuration parameter. An each call with a block on a single line is always allowed, however.

This cop checks for the use of methods which skip validations which are listed in http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_validations.html#skipping-validations

Example:

# bad
Article.first.decrement!(:view_count)
DiscussionBoard.decrement_counter(:post_count, 5)
Article.first.increment!(:view_count)
DiscussionBoard.increment_counter(:post_count, 5)
person.toggle :active
product.touch
Billing.update_all("category = 'authorized', author = 'David'")
user.update_attribute(website: 'example.com')
user.update_columns(last_request_at: Time.current)
Post.update_counters 5, comment_count: -1, action_count: 1

# good
user.update_attributes(website: 'example.com')
FileUtils.touch('file')

This cop checks for the use of Time methods without zone.

Built on top of Ruby on Rails style guide (https://github.com/bbatsov/rails-style-guide#time) and the article http://danilenko.org/2012/7/6/rails_timezones/ .

Two styles are supported for this cop. When EnforcedStyle is 'strict' then only use of Time.zone is allowed.

When EnforcedStyle is 'flexible' then it's also allowed to use Time.intimezone.

Example:

# always offense
Time.now
Time.parse('2015-03-02 19:05:37')

# no offense
Time.zone.now
Time.zone.parse('2015-03-02 19:05:37')

# no offense only if style is 'flexible'
Time.current
DateTime.strptime(str, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M %Z").in_time_zone
Time.at(timestamp).in_time_zone

This cop checks for uses of class variables. Offenses are signaled only on assignment to class variables to reduce the number of offenses that would be reported.

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
                        ]

This cop looks for uses of the for keyword, or each method. The preferred alternative is set in the EnforcedStyle configuration parameter. An each call with a block on a single line is always allowed, however.

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)

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
