Bare access modifiers (those not applying to specific methods) should be indented as deep as method definitions, or as deep as the class/module keyword, depending on configuration.

Examples

  def smooth; end
end

# good
class Plumbus

Three modes are supported through the EnforcedStyleAlignWith configuration parameter:

start_of_block : the end shall be aligned with the start of the line where the do appeared.

start_of_line : the end shall be aligned with the start of the line where the expression started.

either (which is the default) : the end is allowed to be in either location. The autofixer will default to start_of_line.

Examples

Checks if the code style follows the ExpectedOrder configuration:

Categories allows us to map macro names into a category.

Consider an example of code style that covers the following order:

  • Module inclusion (include, prepend, extend)

  • Constants

  • Associations (has_one, has_many)

  • Public attribute macros (attr_accessor, attr_writer, attr_reader)

  • Other macros (validates, validate)

  • Public class methods

  • Initializer

  • Public instance methods

  • Protected attribute macros (attr_accessor, attr_writer, attr_reader)

  • Protected instance methods

  • Private attribute macros (attr_accessor, attr_writer, attr_reader)

  • Private instance methods

You can configure the following order:

 Layout/ClassStructure:
   ExpectedOrder:
     - module_inclusion
     - constants
     - association
     - public_attribute_macros
     - public_delegate
     - macros
     - public_class_methods
     - initializer
     - public_methods
     - protected_attribute_macros
     - protected_methods
     - private_attribute_macros
     - private_delegate
     - private_methods

Instead of putting all literals in the expected order, is also possible to group categories of macros. Visibility levels are handled automatically.

 Layout/ClassStructure:
   Categories:
     association:
       - has_many
       - has_one
     attribute_macros:
       - attr_accessor
       - attr_reader
       - attr_writer
     macros:
       - validates
       - validate
     module_inclusion:
       - include
       - prepend
       - extend

Examples

# bad
# Expect extend be before constant
class Person < ApplicationRecord
  has_many :orders
  ANSWER = 42

  extend SomeModule
  include AnotherModule
end

# good
class Person
  # extend and include go first
  extend SomeModule
  include AnotherModule

  # inner classes
  CustomError = Class.new(StandardError)

  # constants are next
  SOME_CONSTANT = 20

  # afterwards we have public attribute macros
  attr_reader :name

  # followed by other macros (if any)
  validates :name

  # then we have public delegate macros
  delegate :to_s, to: :name

  # public class methods are next in line
  def self.some_method
  end

  # initialization goes between class methods and instance methods
  def initialize
  end

  # followed by other public instance methods
  def some_method
  end

  # protected attribute macros and methods go next
  protected

  attr_reader :protected_name

  def some_protected_method
  end

  # private attribute macros, delegate macros and methods
  # are grouped near the end
  private

  attr_reader :private_name

  delegate :some_private_delegate, to: :name

  def some_private_method

This cop checks the indentation of the first element in an array literal where the opening bracket and the first element are on separate lines. The other elements' indentations are handled by the ArrayAlignment cop.

By default, array literals that are arguments in a method call with parentheses, and where the opening square bracket of the array is on the same line as the opening parenthesis of the method call, shall have their first element indented one step (two spaces) more than the position inside the opening parenthesis.

Other array literals shall have their first element indented one step more than the start of the line where the opening square bracket is.

This default style is called 'special_inside_parentheses'. Alternative styles are 'consistent' and 'align_brackets'. Here are examples:

This cop checks the indentation of the first key in a hash literal where the opening brace and the first key are on separate lines. The other keys' indentations are handled by the HashAlignment cop.

By default, Hash literals that are arguments in a method call with parentheses, and where the opening curly brace of the hash is on the same line as the opening parenthesis of the method call, shall have their first key indented one step (two spaces) more than the position inside the opening parenthesis.

Other hash literals shall have their first key indented one step more than the start of the line where the opening curly brace is.

Check that the keys, separators, and values of a multi-line hash literal are aligned according to configuration. The configuration options are:

  • key (left align keys, one space before hash rockets and values)

  • separator (align hash rockets and colons, right align keys)

  • table (left align keys, hash rockets, and values)

The treatment of hashes passed as the last argument to a method call can also be configured. The options are:

  • always_inspect

  • always_ignore

  • ignore_implicit (without curly braces)

Alternatively you can specify multiple allowed styles. That’s done by passing a list of styles to EnforcedStyles.

This cop checks for inconsistent indentation.

The difference between indented_internal_methods and normal is that the indented_internal_methods style prescribes that in classes and modules the protected and private modifier keywords shall be indented the same as public methods and that protected and private members shall be indented one step more than the modifiers. Other than that, both styles mean that entities on the same logical depth shall have the same indentation.

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

  • 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:

Examples

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

This cop checks that the closing brace in an array literal is either on the same line as the last array element or on a new line.

When using the symmetrical (default) style:

If an array’s opening brace is on the same line as the first element of the array, then the closing brace should be on the same line as the last element of the array.

If an array’s opening brace is on the line above the first element of the array, then the closing brace should be on the line below the last element of the array.

When using the new_line style:

The closing brace of a multi-line array literal must be on the line after the last element of the array.

When using the same_line style:

The closing brace of a multi-line array literal must be on the same line as the last element of the array.

Putting block arguments on separate lines, because the whole line would otherwise be too long, is accepted.

# hash braces, with the exception that successive left
# braces or right braces are collapsed together in nested hashes.

# bad
h = { a: { b: 2 } }
foo = { { a: 1 } => { b: { c: 2 } } }

# good
h = { a: { b: 2 }}
foo = {{ a: 1 } => { b: { c: 2 }}}

EnforcedStyleForEmptyBraces: no_space (default)

# The `no_space` EnforcedStyleForEmptyBraces style enforces that
# empty hash braces do not contain spaces.

# bad
foo = { }
bar = {    }

# good
foo = {}
bar = {}

EnforcedStyleForEmptyBraces: space

# The `space` EnforcedStyleForEmptyBraces style enforces that
# empty hash braces contain space.

# bad
foo = {}

# good
foo = { }
foo = {  }
foo = {     }
