RuboCop Rails

Gem Version CircleCI

A RuboCop extension focused on enforcing Rails best practices and coding conventions.

Note: This repository manages rubocop-rails gem (>= 2.0.0). rubocop-rails gem (<= 1.5.0) has been renamed to rubocop-rails_config gem.

Installation

Just install the rubocop-rails gem

$ gem install rubocop-rails

or if you use bundler put this in your Gemfile

gem 'rubocop-rails', require: false

Usage

You need to tell RuboCop to load the Rails extension. There are three ways to do this:

RuboCop configuration file

Put this into your .rubocop.yml.

require: rubocop-rails

Alternatively, use the following array notation when specifying multiple extensions.

require:
  - rubocop-other-extension
  - rubocop-rails

Now you can run rubocop and it will automatically load the RuboCop Rails cops together with the standard cops.

Command line

$ rubocop --require rubocop-rails

Note: --rails option is required while rubocop command supports --rails option.

Rake task

RuboCop::RakeTask.new do |task|
  task.requires << 'rubocop-rails'
end

Rails configuration tip

If you are using Rails 6.1 or newer, add the following config.generators.after_generate setting to your config/application.rb to apply RuboCop autocorrection to code generated by bin/rails g.

# config/application.rb
module YourCoolApp
  class Application < Rails::Application
    config.generators.after_generate do |files|
      parsable_files = files.filter { |file| file.end_with?('.rb') }
      system("bundle exec rubocop -A --fail-level=E #{parsable_files.shelljoin}", exception: true)
    end
  end
end

It uses rubocop -A to apply Style/FrozenStringLiteralComment and other unsafe autocorretion cops. rubocop -A is unsafe autocorrection, but code generated by default is simple and less likely to be incompatible with rubocop -A. If you have problems you can replace it with rubocop -a instead.

The Cops

All cops are located under lib/rubocop/cop/rails, and contain examples/documentation.

In your .rubocop.yml, you may treat the Rails cops just like any other cop. For example:

Rails/FindBy:
  Exclude:
    - lib/example.rb

Documentation

You can read a lot more about RuboCop Rails in its official docs.

Compatibility

Rails cops support the following versions:

  • Rails 4.2+
