Overview

Checks for Hash creation with a mutable default value. Creating a Hash in such a way will share the default value across all keys, causing unexpected behavior when modifying it.

For example, when the Hash was created with an Array as the argument, calling hash[:foo] << 'bar' will also change the value of all other keys that have not been explicitly assigned to.

Examples:

# bad
Hash.new([])
Hash.new({})
Hash.new(Array.new)
Hash.new(Hash.new)

# okay -- In rare cases that intentionally have this behavior,
#   without disabling the cop, you can set the default explicitly.
h = Hash.new
h.default = []
h[:a] << 1
h[:b] << 2
h # => {:a => [1, 2], :b => [1, 2]}

# okay -- beware this will discard mutations and only remember assignments
Hash.new { Array.new }
Hash.new { Hash.new }
Hash.new { {} }
Hash.new { [] }

# good - frozen solution will raise an error when mutation attempted
Hash.new([].freeze)
Hash.new({}.freeze)

# good - using a proc will create a new object for each key
h = Hash.new
h.default_proc = ->(h, k) { [] }
h.default_proc = ->(h, k) { {} }

# good - using a block will create a new object for each key
Hash.new { |h, k| h[k] = [] }
Hash.new { |h, k| h[k] = {} }

Instance Attribute Summary

Instance Method Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::Base - Inherited

#add_global_offense

Adds an offense that has no particular location.

#add_offense

Adds an offense on the specified range (or node with an expression) Unless that offense is disabled for this range, a corrector will be yielded to provide the cop the opportunity to autocorrect the offense.

#begin_investigation

Called before any investigation.

#callbacks_needed,
#cop_config

Configuration Helpers.

#cop_name, #excluded_file?,
#external_dependency_checksum

This method should be overridden when a cop’s behavior depends on state that lives outside of these locations:

#inspect,
#message

Gets called if no message is specified when calling add_offense or add_global_offense Cops are discouraged to override this; instead pass your message directly.

#name

Alias for Base#cop_name.

#offenses,
#on_investigation_end

Called after all on_…​

#on_new_investigation

Called before all on_…​

#on_other_file

Called instead of all on_…​

#parse

There should be very limited reasons for a Cop to do it’s own parsing.

#parser_engine,
#ready

Called between investigations.

#relevant_file?,
#target_gem_version

Returns a gems locked versions (i.e.

#target_rails_version, #target_ruby_version, #annotate, #apply_correction, #attempt_correction,
#callback_argument

Reserved for Cop::Cop.

#complete_investigation

Called to complete an investigation.

#correct, #current_corrector,
#current_offense_locations

Reserved for Commissioner:

#current_offenses, #currently_disabled_lines, #custom_severity, #default_severity, #disable_uncorrectable, #enabled_line?, #file_name_matches_any?, #find_message, #find_severity, #range_for_original, #range_from_node_or_range,
#reset_investigation

Actually private methods.
