Implements checks for some of the Ruby style guide items.
This tool is meant to be use as a pre-commit hook for git, to ensure the code is properly formatted. Run the following
cd .git/hooks
ln -s /path/to/bin/rstyle
and you’ll have to be compliant with the rstyle checks to be able to commit code to the repository.
It can also be used to check one or more ruby files in standalone mode:
rstyle /path/to/rubyfile.rb
The style checker looks for the following:
- line longer than 80 characters
- empty line contains whitespace
- line contains tab(s)
- line ends with whitespace
- no space after ,
- space after ( and [ or before ) and ]
- methods should be in snake_case
- use two spaces before statement modifiers
It will also issue warnings for the following:
- don’t use
for/code> unless you know what you are doing
