Overview

Use a guard clause instead of wrapping the code inside a conditional expression

A condition with an elsif or else branch is allowed unless one of return, break, next, raise, or fail is used in the body of the conditional expression.

Note
 Autocorrect works in most cases except with if-else statements that contain logical operators such as foo || raise('exception')

Examples:

# bad
def test
  if something
    work
  end
end

# good
def test
  return unless something

  work
end

# also good
def test
  work if something
end

# bad
if something
  raise 'exception'
else
  ok
end

# good
raise 'exception' if something
ok

# bad
if something
  foo || raise('exception')
else
  ok
end

# good
foo || raise('exception') if something
ok

# bad
define_method(:test) do
  if something
    work
  end
end

# good
define_method(:test) do
  return unless something

  work
end

# also good
define_method(:test) do
  work if something
end

AllowConsecutiveConditionals: false (default)

# bad
def test
  if foo?
    work
  end

  if bar?  # <- reports an offense
    work
  end
end

AllowConsecutiveConditionals: true

# good
def test
  if foo?
    work
  end

  if bar?
    work
  end
end

# bad
def test
  if foo?
    work
  end

  do_something

  if bar?  # <- reports an offense
    work
  end
end
