This cop checks if the length of a method exceeds some maximum value. Comment lines can optionally be ignored. The maximum allowed length is configurable.
Cyclomatic complexity for path_to is too high. [8/6] Open

case page_name

- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks that the cyclomatic complexity of methods is not higher than the configured maximum. The cyclomatic complexity is the number of linearly independent paths through a method. The algorithm counts decision points and adds one.
An if statement (or unless or ?:) increases the complexity by one. An else branch does not, since it doesn't add a decision point. The && operator (or keyword and) can be converted to a nested if statement, and ||/or is shorthand for a sequence of ifs, so they also add one. Loops can be said to have an exit condition, so they add one.
Assignment Branch Condition size for path_to is too high. [16.58/15] Open

This cop checks that the ABC size of methods is not higher than the configured maximum. The ABC size is based on assignments, branches (method calls), and conditions. See http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?AbcMetric
Redundant self
detected. Open
self.send(path_components.push('path').join('_').to_sym)
- 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

Unused method argument - user
. If it's necessary, use _
or _user
as an argument name to indicate that it won't be used. Open
def path_to(page_name, user = nil)
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for unused method arguments.
Example:
# bad
def some_method(used, unused, _unused_but_allowed)
puts used
end
Example:
# good
def some_method(used, _unused, _unused_but_allowed)
puts used
end
Use \
instead of +
or <<
to concatenate those strings. Open
raise "Can't find mapping from \"#{page_name}\" to a path.\n" +

This cop checks for string literal concatenation at the end of a line.
Example:
# bad
some_str = 'ala' +
'bala'
some_str = 'ala' <<
'bala'
# good
some_str = 'ala' \
'bala'
