This cop checks if the length a module exceeds some maximum value. Comment lines can optionally be ignored. The maximum allowed length is configurable.

You can set literals you want to fold with CountAsOne. Available are: 'array', 'hash', and 'heredoc'. Each literal will be counted as one line regardless of its actual size.

Example: CountAsOne: ['array', 'heredoc']

module M
  ARRAY = [         # +1
    1,
    2
  ]

  HASH = {          # +3
    key: 'value'

  MSG = <<~HEREDOC  # +1
    Heredoc
    content.
  HEREDOC

Cognitive Complexity

Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.

A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:

• Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
• Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
• Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

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 and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_Software_Metric.

Interpreting ABC size:

• <= 17 satisfactory
• 18..30 unsatisfactory
• > 30 dangerous

You can have repeated "attributes" calls count as a single "branch". For this purpose, attributes are any method with no argument; no attempt is meant to distinguish actual attr_reader from other methods.

Example: CountRepeatedAttributes: false (default is true)

# `model` and `current_user`, refenced 3 times each,
 # are each counted as only 1 branch each if
 # `CountRepeatedAttributes` is set to 'false'

 def search
   @posts = model.active.visible_by(current_user)
             .search(params[:q])
   @posts = model.some_process(@posts, current_user)
   @posts = model.another_process(@posts, current_user)

   render 'pages/search/page'
 end

This cop also takes into account IgnoredMethods (defaults to [])

This cop checks the length of lines in the source code. The maximum length is configurable. The tab size is configured in the IndentationWidth of the Layout/IndentationStyle cop. It also ignores a shebang line by default.

This cop has some autocorrection capabilities. It can programmatically shorten certain long lines by inserting line breaks into expressions that can be safely split across lines. These include arrays, hashes, and method calls with argument lists.

If autocorrection is enabled, the following Layout cops are recommended to further format the broken lines. (Many of these are enabled by default.)

• ArgumentAlignment
• BlockAlignment
• BlockDelimiters
• BlockEndNewline
• ClosingParenthesisIndentation
• FirstArgumentIndentation
• FirstArrayElementIndentation
• FirstHashElementIndentation
• FirstParameterIndentation
• HashAlignment
• IndentationWidth
• MultilineArrayLineBreaks
• MultilineBlockLayout
• MultilineHashBraceLayout
• MultilineHashKeyLineBreaks
• MultilineMethodArgumentLineBreaks
• ParameterAlignment

Together, these cops will pretty print hashes, arrays, method calls, etc. For example, let's say the max columns is 25:

Example:

# bad
{foo: "0000000000", bar: "0000000000", baz: "0000000000"}

# good
{foo: "0000000000",
bar: "0000000000", baz: "0000000000"}

# good (with recommended cops enabled)
{
  foo: "0000000000",
  bar: "0000000000",
  baz: "0000000000",

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, constant definitions or constant visibility declarations.

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

module Math
end

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

# allowed
  # Class without body
  class Person
  end

  # Namespace - A namespace can be a class or a module
  # Containing a class
  module Namespace
    # Description/Explanation of Person class
    class Person
      # ...
    end
  end

  # Containing constant visibility declaration
  module Namespace
    class Private
    end

    Public = Class.new
  end

This cop checks the alignment of else keywords. Normally they should be aligned with an if/unless/while/until/begin/def/rescue keyword, but there are special cases when they should follow the same rules as the alignment of end.

Example:

# bad

  code
 else
  code
end

# bad
if something
  code
 elsif something
  code
end

# good
if something
  code
else
  code
end

Checks for if and unless statements that would fit on one line if written as modifier if/unless. The cop also checks for modifier if/unless lines that exceed the maximum line length.

The maximum line length is configured in the Layout/LineLength cop. The tab size is configured in the IndentationWidth of the Layout/IndentationStyle cop.

Example:

# bad
if condition
  do_stuff(bar)
end

unless qux.empty?
  Foo.do_something
end

do_something_with_a_long_name(arg) if long_condition_that_prevents_code_fit_on_single_line

This cop checks for numeric comparisons that can be replaced by a predicate method, such as receiver.length == 0, receiver.length > 0, receiver.length != 0, receiver.length < 1 and receiver.size == 0 that can be replaced by receiver.empty? and !receiver.empty?.

Safety:

This cop is unsafe because it cannot be guaranteed that the receiver has an empty? method that is defined in terms of length. If there is a non-standard class that redefines length or empty?, the cop may register a false positive.

Example:

# bad
[1, 2, 3].length == 0
0 == "foobar".length
array.length < 1
{a: 1, b: 2}.length != 0
string.length > 0
hash.size > 0

# good
[1, 2, 3].empty?
"foobar".empty?
array.empty?
!{a: 1, b: 2}.empty?
!string.empty?
!hash.empty?

This cop checks for parentheses around the arguments in method definitions. Both instance and class/singleton methods are checked.

This cop does not consider endless methods, since parentheses are always required for them.

Example: EnforcedStyle: require_parentheses (default)

# The `require_parentheses` style requires method definitions
# to always use parentheses

# bad
def bar num1, num2
  num1 + num2
end

def foo descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name
  do_something
end

# good
def bar(num1, num2)
  num1 + num2
end

def foo(descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name)
  do_something
end

Example: EnforcedStyle: requirenoparentheses

# The `require_no_parentheses` style requires method definitions
# to never use parentheses

# bad
def bar(num1, num2)
  num1 + num2
end

def foo(descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,

end

def foo descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name
  do_something
end

Example: EnforcedStyle: requirenoparenthesesexceptmultiline

# The `require_no_parentheses_except_multiline` style prefers no
# parentheses when method definition arguments fit on single line,
# but prefers parentheses when arguments span multiple lines.

# bad
def bar(num1, num2)

end

def foo descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,

Use next to skip iteration instead of a condition at the end.

Example: EnforcedStyle: skipmodifierifs (default)

# bad
[1, 2].each do |a|
  if a == 1
    puts a
  end
end

# good
[1, 2].each do |a|
  next unless a == 1
  puts a
end

# good
[1, 2].each do |a|
  puts a if a == 1
end

Example: EnforcedStyle: always

# With `always` all conditions at the end of an iteration needs to be
# replaced by next - with `skip_modifier_ifs` the modifier if like
# this one are ignored: `[1, 2].each { |a| puts a if a == 1 }`

# bad
[1, 2].each do |a|
  puts a if a == 1
end

# bad
[1, 2].each do |a|
  if a == 1
    puts a
  end
end

This cop checks whether the end keywords are aligned properly.

Three modes are supported through the EnforcedStyleAlignWith configuration parameter:

If it's set to keyword (which is the default), the end shall be aligned with the start of the keyword (if, class, etc.).

If it's set to variable the end shall be aligned with the left-hand-side of the variable assignment, if there is one.

If it's set to start_of_line, the end shall be aligned with the start of the line where the matching keyword appears.

This Layout/EndAlignment cop aligns with keywords (e.g. if, while, case) by default. On the other hand, Layout/BeginEndAlignment cop aligns with EnforcedStyleAlignWith: start_of_line by default due to ||= begin tends to align with the start of the line. These style can be configured by each cop.

Example: EnforcedStyleAlignWith: keyword (default)

# bad

variable = if true
    end

# good

variable = if true
           end

variable =
  if true
  end

Example: EnforcedStyleAlignWith: variable

# bad

variable = if true
    end

# good

variable = if true
end

variable =
  if true
  end

Example: EnforcedStyleAlignWith: startofline

# bad

variable = if true
    end

puts(if true
     end)

# good

variable = if true
end

puts(if true
end)

variable =
  if true
  end

This cop checks for parentheses around the arguments in method definitions. Both instance and class/singleton methods are checked.

This cop checks for usage of comparison operators (==, >, <) to test numbers as zero, positive, or negative. These can be replaced by their respective predicate methods. The cop can also be configured to do the reverse.

The cop disregards #nonzero? as its value is truthy or falsey, but not true and false, and thus not always interchangeable with != 0.

The cop ignores comparisons to global variables, since they are often populated with objects which can be compared with integers, but are not themselves Integer polymorphic.

Safety:

This cop is unsafe because it cannot be guaranteed that the receiver defines the predicates or can be compared to a number, which may lead to a false positive for non-standard classes.

Example: EnforcedStyle: predicate (default)

# bad

foo == 0
0 > foo
bar.baz > 0

# good

foo.zero?
foo.negative?
bar.baz.positive?

Example: EnforcedStyle: comparison

# bad

foo.zero?
foo.negative?
bar.baz.positive?

# good

foo == 0
0 > foo
bar.baz > 0

This cop checks for places where string concatenation can be replaced with string interpolation.

The cop can autocorrect simple cases but will skip autocorrecting more complex cases where the resulting code would be harder to read. In those cases, it might be useful to extract statements to local variables or methods which you can then interpolate in a string.

NOTE: When concatenation between two strings is broken over multiple lines, this cop does not register an offense; instead, Style/LineEndConcatenation will pick up the offense if enabled.

Two modes are supported: 1. aggressive style checks and corrects all occurrences of + where either the left or right side of + is a string literal. 2. conservative style on the other hand, checks and corrects only if left side (receiver of + method call) is a string literal. This is useful when the receiver is some expression that returns string like Pathname instead of a string literal.

Safety:

This cop is unsafe in aggressive mode, as it cannot be guaranteed that the receiver is actually a string, which can result in a false positive.

Example: Mode: aggressive (default)

# bad
email_with_name = user.name + ' <' + user.email + '>'
Pathname.new('/') + 'test'

# good
email_with_name = "#{user.name} <#{user.email}>"
email_with_name = format('%s <%s>', user.name, user.email)
"#{Pathname.new('/')}test"

# accepted, line-end concatenation
name = 'First' +
  'Last'

Example: Mode: conservative

# bad
'Hello' + user.name

# good
"Hello #{user.name}"
user.name + '!!'
Pathname.new('/') + 'test'

Example: EnforcedStyle: single_quotes (default)

# bad
"No special symbols"
"No string interpolation"
"Just text"

# good
'No special symbols'
'No string interpolation'
'Just text'
"Wait! What's #{this}!"

Example: EnforcedStyle: double_quotes

# bad
'Just some text'
'No special chars or interpolation'

# good
"Just some text"

This cop checks for parentheses around the arguments in method definitions. Both instance and class/singleton methods are checked.

This cop does not consider endless methods, since parentheses are always required for them.

Example: EnforcedStyle: require_parentheses (default)

# The `require_parentheses` style requires method definitions
# to always use parentheses

# bad
def bar num1, num2
  num1 + num2
end

def foo descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name
  do_something
end

# good
def bar(num1, num2)
  num1 + num2
end

def foo(descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name)
  do_something
end

Example: EnforcedStyle: requirenoparentheses

# The `require_no_parentheses` style requires method definitions
# to never use parentheses

# bad
def bar(num1, num2)
  num1 + num2
end

def foo(descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name)
  do_something
end

# good
def bar num1, num2
  num1 + num2
end

def foo descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name
  do_something
end

Example: EnforcedStyle: requirenoparenthesesexceptmultiline

# The `require_no_parentheses_except_multiline` style prefers no
# parentheses when method definition arguments fit on single line,
# but prefers parentheses when arguments span multiple lines.

# bad
def bar(num1, num2)
  num1 + num2
end

def foo descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name
  do_something
end

# good
def bar num1, num2
  num1 + num2
end

def foo(descriptive_var_name,
        another_descriptive_var_name,
        last_descriptive_var_name)
