Overview

Avoid prefixing accessor method names with get_ or set_. Applies to both instance and class methods.

Note
Method names starting with get_ or set_ only register an offense when the methods match the expected arity for getters and setters respectively. Getters (get_attribute) must have no arguments to be registered, and setters (set_attribute(value)) must have exactly one.

When AllCops/UseProjectIndex is enabled and the rubydex gem is installed, methods that override a method defined by an ancestor elsewhere in the project are not reported, since renaming an override breaks the inherited contract.

Examples:

# bad
def set_attribute(value)
end

# good
def attribute=(value)
end

# bad
def get_attribute
end

# good
def attribute
end

# accepted, incorrect arity for getter
def get_value(attr)
end

# accepted, incorrect arity for setter
def set_value
end

Class Attribute Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::Base - Inherited

.gem_requirements, .lint?,
.support_autocorrect?

Returns if class supports autocorrect.

.support_multiple_source?

Override if your cop should be called repeatedly for multiple investigations Between calls to on_new_investigation and on_investigation_end, the result of processed_source will remain constant.

Class Method Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::Base - Inherited

.autocorrect_incompatible_with

List of cops that should not try to autocorrect at the same time as this cop.

.badge

Naming.

.callbacks_needed, .cop_name, .department,
.documentation_url

Returns a url to view this cops documentation online.

.exclude_from_registry

Call for abstract Cop classes.

.inherited,
.joining_forces

Override and return the Force class(es) you need to join.

.match?

Returns true if the cop name or the cop namespace matches any of the given names.

.new,
.requires_gem

Register a version requirement for the given gem name.

.restrict_on_send

Reserved for Commissioner.

::RuboCop::ExcludeLimit - Extended

exclude_limit

Sets up a configuration option to have an exclude limit tracked.

Instance Attribute Summary

Instance Method Summary

::RuboCop::Cop::ProjectIndexHelp - Included

#external_dependency_checksum, #compute_project_index_signature,
#definitions_in_other_files

Returns the definitions among definitions that live in a file other than the one being inspected, ordered by path and line.

#fully_resolved_index_ancestry?

Whether every link of the declaration’s ancestry is resolved in the index: no definition of any ancestor has an unresolved superclass or mixin reference.

#indexed_singleton_member

A namespace without any singleton method has no singleton-class declaration of its own, so the lookup starts from the first ancestor that has one; its find_member covers the rest of the chain.

#indexed_singleton_of

The declaration of `declaration’s singleton class, or nil when no singleton method is defined on it anywhere in the project.

#inherited_index_member?

Whether an ancestor of scope other than scope itself defines member_name.

#lexical_nesting_of

The lexical nesting the node’s constants resolve through, outermost first.

#prior_definition_in_other_file, #project_index_signature,
#resolve_constant_in_index

Resolves a constant node the way Ruby does: the first segment through the lexical nesting and every following segment inside the previous one.

#resolved_mixin_references?, #resolved_superclass_reference?, #same_file?

::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, #matches_absolute_include_pattern?, #range_for_original, #range_from_node_or_range,
#reset_investigation

Actually private methods.
