Overview

Checks for places where string concatenation can be replaced with string interpolation.

The cop can autocorrect simple cases but will skip autocorrecting more complex cases where the resulting code would be harder to read. In those cases, it might be useful to extract statements to local variables or methods which you can then interpolate in a string.

Note
 When concatenation between two strings is broken over multiple lines, this cop does not register an offense; instead, Style/LineEndConcatenation will pick up the offense if enabled.

Two modes are supported: 1. aggressive style checks and corrects all occurrences of {} where either the left or right side of {} is a string literal. 2. conservative style on the other hand, checks and corrects only if left side (receiver of + method call) is a string literal. This is useful when the receiver is some expression that returns string like Pathname instead of a string literal.

Examples:

Mode: aggressive (default)

# bad
email_with_name = user.name + ' <' + user.email + '>'
Pathname.new('/') + 'test'

# good
email_with_name = "#{user.name} <#{user.email}>"
email_with_name = format('%s <%s>', user.name, user.email)
"#{Pathname.new('/')}test"

# accepted, line-end concatenation
name = 'First' +
  'Last'

Mode: conservative

# bad
'Hello' + user.name

# good
"Hello #{user.name}"
user.name + '!!'
Pathname.new('/') + 'test'

Cop Safety Information:

  • This cop is unsafe in aggressive mode, as it cannot be guaranteed that the receiver is actually a string, which can result in a false positive.

::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.

#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.
