Rubocop

[connorshea]

We should use Rubocop to maintain a standardized style for Ruby code across the project.

Check out these rules:

• SpaceBeforeBlockBraces
• SpaceAroundBlockParameters
• SpaceAroundEqualsInParameterDefault
• EmptyLineBetweenDefs

All rules are listed in rubocop's default.yml.

Add the following to the Gemfile (Source):

##
# A Ruby static code analyzer based on the community Ruby style guide.
# Config file: `.rubocop.yml`
# Run Rubocop with `rake rubocop`
# https://github.com/bbatsov/rubocop
gem 'rubocop', require: false

Add the following to the Rakefile to enable rake rubocop and rake rubocop:auto_correct (Source):

require 'rubocop/rake_task'

RuboCop::RakeTask.new

Here's a .rubycop.yml to start with:

AllCops:
  Exclude:
    - 'vendor/**/*'
    - 'spec/fixtures/**/*'

Rails:
  Enabled: true

Style/Encoding:
  Enabled: true

Style/IndentationWidth:
  Width: 2

Style/MethodName:
  EnforcedStyle: snake_case

Metrics/LineLength:
  Max: 80

Some custom cops we may want to look into:

• rubocop-rspec
