MD031 - Fenced code blocks should be surrounded by blank lines

Tags: code, blank_lines

Aliases: blanks-around-fences

This rule is triggered when fenced code blocks are either not preceded or not followed by a blank line:

Some text
```
Code block
```

```
Another code block
```
Some more text

To fix this, ensure that all fenced code blocks have a blank line both before and after (except where the block is at the beginning or end of the document):

Some text

```
Code block
```

```
Another code block
```

Some more text

Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including kramdown, will not parse fenced code blocks that don't have blank lines before and after them.

Checks the indentation of here document closings.

Example:

# bad
class Foo
  def bar
    <<~SQL
      'Hi'
  SQL
  end
end

# good
class Foo
  def bar
    <<~SQL
      'Hi'
    SQL
  end
end

# bad

# heredoc contents is before closing heredoc.
foo arg,
    <<~EOS
  Hi
    EOS

# good
foo arg,
    <<~EOS
  Hi
EOS

# good
foo arg,
    <<~EOS
      Hi
    EOS

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/Tab cop.

Here we check if the parameters on a multi-line method call or definition are aligned.

Example: EnforcedStyle: withfirstparameter (default)

# good

foo :bar,
    :baz

# bad

foo :bar,
  :baz

Example: EnforcedStyle: withfixedindentation

# good

foo :bar,
  :baz

# bad

foo :bar,
    :baz

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(website: 'example.com')
FileUtils.touch('file')
