This gem encapsulates linter rules for rubocop that can be applied to any Ruby application or service within AngelList stack. It comes with a multiple config files which deactivate some of RuboCop’s features. It is meant as a less restrictive foundation that you can use directly or base your style discussions on.

The gems' ruleset also loads the relaxed ruby style guide version 2.5, saved into a local file .rubocop_relaxed.yml .

The debate is over: automatic formatters and linters have won, period. You can argue with a bus or a mountain, but you won’t win that argument. Same here.
Please use rubocop to auto-correct your PRs.

It’s good for you,

It’s good for other developers who will be reading your code,

It’s good for the business, and
-
It’s good for the tests.
There are many scenarios where you may disagree with a given rule, either in general, or in a specific context.
Here are your choices:
-
For in-place overrides that only happen once or twice, use in-line comments to disable and immediately re-enable the rule:
# lib/path/to-my-file.rb # rubocop: disable Metrics/MethodLength def very_long_method # very long body [snip] end # rubocop: enable Metrics/MethodLength
-
For per-file or folder rule overrides, add them to your local
.rubocop.yml
:# .rubocop.yml Metrics/MethodLength: Exclude: - lib/path/to-my-file.rb
-
Add an entire rule overide into your local
.rubocop.yml
file:# .rubocop.yml Metrics/MethodLength: Exclude: - lib/path/to-my-file.rb
-
Finally, if you want to propose a global change with one or more rules, dependencies, or exclusions, add your change to the appropriate file under
config/
, submit a pull request, and then announce your proposal and the PR in the appropriate Slack channel (you might want to create a poll). Once you are done receiving the feedback — move forward appropriately.
This gem is released as a public ruby gem (available at rubygems) for ease of deployment.
Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:
gem 'angellist-style'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Alternatively, run:
$ gem install angellist-style -N
To use the styles contained in this gem, add this to your .rubocop.yml
:
inherit_gem:
angellist-style:
- .rubocop.yml
# Local overrides.
Namespace/Rule1:
Enabled: false
Namespace/Rule2:
Enabled: false
# ... etc ....
While not recommended, you can load the rule overrides only for certain Rubocop top-level categories, which are all grouped in YAML files under the config/
folder.
If you inspect the file .rubocop_angellist.yml
, you’ll see the full list of rule files that is being included.
Here we show a version you’d specify in your project’s .rubocop.yml
. If you prefer not to apply some of the categories, just delete the corresponding line that you do not want to include:
inherit_gem:
angellist-style:
- .rubocop_relaxed.yml
- config/require.yml
- config/all_cops.yml
- config/layout.yml
- config/lint.yml
- config/metrics.yml
- config/naming.yml
- config/rails.yml
- config/rspec.yml
- config/security.yml
- config/style.yml
Rubocop can generate a local "TODO" file, which you can check-in — this alllows you to run rubocop on CI and have it pass all the legacy code, but fail any new code that does not satisfy the linter.
$ bundle exec rubocop --auto-gen-config
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
Gem management is provided by Rake tasks:
-
To install this gem onto your local machine, run
bundle exec rake install
. -
If you have not yet authenticated with rubygems.org, make sure to create an account, and protect it with the MFA. Then
-
To release a new version, update the version number in
version.rb
, and then runbundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the.gem
file to rubygems.org.
