Defined in: lib/rubocop/cop/style/class_equality_comparison.rb

Overview

Enforces the use of Object#instance_of? instead of class comparison for equality. ==, equal?, and eql? custom method definitions are allowed by default. These are customizable with ::RuboCop::Cop::AllowedMethods option.

Examples:

# bad
var.class == Date
var.class.equal?(Date)
var.class.eql?(Date)
var.class.name == 'Date'

# good
var.instance_of?(Date)

AllowedMethods: ['==', 'equal?', 'eql?'] (default)

# good
def ==(other)
  self.class == other.class && name == other.name
end

def equal?(other)
  self.class.equal?(other.class) && name.equal?(other.name)
end

def eql?(other)
  self.class.eql?(other.class) && name.eql?(other.name)
end

AllowedPatterns: [] (default)

# bad
def eq(other)
  self.class.eq(other.class) && name.eq(other.name)
end

AllowedPatterns: ['eq']

# good
def eq(other)
  self.class.eq(other.class) && name.eq(other.name)
end

Cop Safety Information:

  • This cop’s autocorrection is unsafe because there is no guarantee that the constant Foo exists when autocorrecting var.class.name == 'Foo' to var.instance_of?(Foo).

::RuboCop::Cop::AutoCorrector - Extended

support_autocorrect?

::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.

.badge

Naming.

.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.

::RuboCop::Cop::RangeHelp - Included

#add_range, #column_offset_between,
#contents_range

A range containing only the contents of a literal with delimiters (e.g.
#directions,
#effective_column

Returns the column attribute of the range, except if the range is on the first line and there’s a byte order mark at the beginning of that line, in which case 1 is subtracted from the column value.

#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.
