AuthenticateUserCommand has no descriptive comment Open
class AuthenticateUserCommand < BaseCommand

- Exclude checks
Classes and modules are the units of reuse and release. It is therefore considered good practice to annotate every class and module with a brief comment outlining its responsibilities.
Example
Given
class Dummy
# Do things...
end
Reek would emit the following warning:
test.rb -- 1 warning:
[1]:Dummy has no descriptive comment (IrresponsibleModule)
Fixing this is simple - just an explaining comment:
# The Dummy class is responsible for ...
class Dummy
# Do things...
end
Use safe navigation (&.
) instead of checking if an object exists before calling the method. Open
user && user.authenticate(password)
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop transforms usages of a method call safeguarded by a non nil
check for the variable whose method is being called to
safe navigation (&.
).
Configuration option: ConvertCodeThatCanStartToReturnNil
The default for this is false
. When configured to true
, this will
check for code in the format !foo.nil? && foo.bar
. As it is written,
the return of this code is limited to false
and whatever the return
of the method is. If this is converted to safe navigation,
foo&.bar
can start returning nil
as well as what the method
returns.
Example:
# bad
foo.bar if foo
foo.bar(param1, param2) if foo
foo.bar { |e| e.something } if foo
foo.bar(param) { |e| e.something } if foo
foo.bar if !foo.nil?
foo.bar unless !foo
foo.bar unless foo.nil?
foo && foo.bar
foo && foo.bar(param1, param2)
foo && foo.bar { |e| e.something }
foo && foo.bar(param) { |e| e.something }
# good
foo&.bar
foo&.bar(param1, param2)
foo&.bar { |e| e.something }
foo&.bar(param) { |e| e.something }
foo.nil? || foo.bar
!foo || foo.bar
# Methods that `nil` will `respond_to?` should not be converted to
# use safe navigation
foo.to_i if foo
