Overview

Enforces the use of either #alias or #alias_method depending on configuration. It also flags uses of alias :symbol rather than alias bareword.

However, it will always enforce method_alias when used alias in an instance method definition and in a singleton method definition. If used in a block, always enforce alias_method unless it is an instance_eval block.

Examples:

EnforcedStyle: prefer_alias (default)

# bad
alias_method :bar, :foo
alias :bar :foo

# good
alias bar foo

EnforcedStyle: prefer_alias_method

# bad
alias :bar :foo
alias bar foo

# good
alias_method :bar, :foo

#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_…​

#parser_engine,
#ready

Called between investigations.

In this expression, will self be the same as the innermost enclosing
class or module block (:lexical)? Or will it be something else
(:dynamic)? If we’re in an instance_eval block, return that.
