[![Join the chat at https://gitter.im/rubocop-rspec/Lobby](https://badges.gitter.im/rubocop-rspec/Lobby.svg)](https://gitter.im/rubocop-rspec/Lobby)
[![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/rubocop-rspec.svg)](https://rubygems.org/gems/rubocop-rspec)
![CI](https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-rspec/workflows/CI/badge.svg)
[RSpec](https://rspec.info/)-specific analysis for your projects, as an extension to
[RuboCop](https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop).
## Installation
Just install the `rubocop-rspec` gem
```bash
gem install rubocop-rspec
```
or if you use bundler put this in your `Gemfile`
```ruby
gem 'rubocop-rspec', require: false
```
### Upgrading to RuboCop RSpec v2.x
Read all the details in our [Upgrade to Version 2.x](https://docs.rubocop.org/rubocop-rspec/2.0/upgrade_to_version_2.html) document.
## Usage
You need to tell RuboCop to load the RSpec extension. There are three
ways to do this:
### RuboCop configuration file
Put this into your `.rubocop.yml`.
```yaml
require: rubocop-rspec
```
Alternatively, use the following array notation when specifying multiple extensions.
```yaml
require:
- rubocop-other-extension
- rubocop-rspec
```
Now you can run `rubocop` and it will automatically load the RuboCop RSpec
cops together with the standard cops.
### Command line
```bash
rubocop --require rubocop-rspec
```
### Rake task
```ruby
RuboCop::RakeTask.new do |task|
task.requires << 'rubocop-rspec'
end
```
### Code Climate
rubocop-rspec is available on Code Climate as part of the rubocop engine. [Learn More](https://marketing.codeclimate.com/changelog/55a433bbe30ba00852000fac/).
## Documentation
You can read more about RuboCop RSpec in its [official manual](https://docs.rubocop.org/rubocop-rspec).
## The Cops
All cops are located under
[`lib/rubocop/cop/rspec`](lib/rubocop/cop/rspec), and contain
examples/documentation.
In your `.rubocop.yml`, you may treat the RSpec cops just like any other
cop. For example:
```yaml
RSpec/FilePath:
Exclude:
- spec/my_poorly_named_spec_file.rb
```
