Overview

Checks that the configured style (snake_case or camelCase) is used for all variable names. This includes local variables, instance variables, class variables, method arguments (positional, keyword, rest or block), and block arguments.

The cop can also be configured to forbid using specific names for variables, using ForbiddenIdentifiers or ForbiddenPatterns. In addition to the above, this applies to global variables as well.

Method definitions and method calls are not affected by this cop.

Examples:

EnforcedStyle: snake_case (default)

# bad
fooBar = 1

# good
foo_bar = 1

EnforcedStyle: camelCase

# bad
foo_bar = 1

# good
fooBar = 1

AllowedIdentifiers: ['fooBar']

# good (with EnforcedStyle: snake_case)
fooBar = 1

AllowedPatterns: ['_v\d+\z']

# good (with EnforcedStyle: camelCase)
release_v1 = true

ForbiddenIdentifiers: ['fooBar']

# bad (in all cases)
fooBar = 1
@fooBar = 1
@@fooBar = 1
$fooBar = 1

ForbiddenPatterns: ['_v\d+\z']

# bad (in all cases)
release_v1 = true
@release_v1 = true
@@release_v1 = true
$release_v1 = true

#check_name,

#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.
