RubyCritic is a gem that wraps around static analysis gems such as [Reek][1], [Flay][2] and [Flog][3] to provide a quality report of your Ruby code.

Table of Contents

Overview

This gem provides features such as:

  1. An overview of your project:

  1. An index of the project files with their respective number of smells:

  1. An index of the smells detected:

  1. When analysing code like the following:
class Dirty
  def awful(x, y)
    if y
      @screen = widgets.map {|w| w.each {|key| key += 3}}
    end
  end
end

It basically turns something like this:

Into something like this:

  1. It uses your source control system (only Git, Mercurial and Perforce are currently supported) to compare your currently uncommitted changes with your last commit.

Warning: If your code is not as you expect it to be after running RubyCritic, please check your source control system stash.

Checkout the /docs if you want to read more about our core metrics.

Getting Started

RubyCritic can be installed with the following command:

$ gem install rubycritic

If you'd rather install RubyCritic using Bundler, add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "rubycritic", :require => false

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

Running rubycritic with no arguments will analyse all the Ruby files in the current directory:

$ rubycritic

Alternatively you can pass rubycritic a list of files and directories to check:

$ rubycritic app lib/foo.rb

For a full list of the command-line options run:

$ rubycritic --help
Command flag Description
-v / --version Displays the current version and exits
-p / --path Set path where report will be saved (tmp/rubycritic by default)
-f / --format Report smells in the given format: html (default; will open in a browser), json, console.
-s / --minimum-score Set a minimum score
--mode-ci Use CI mode (faster, but only analyses last commit)
--deduplicate-symlinks De-duplicate symlinks based on their final target
--suppress-ratings Suppress letter ratings
--no-browser Do not open html report with browser

Analyzer Configuration

  • Reek: RubyCritic utilizes Reek's default configuration loading mechanism. This means that if you have an existing Reek configuration file, you can just put this into your project root and RubyCritic will respect this configuration.
  • flay: We use flay's default configuration.
  • flog: We use flog's default configuration with a couple of smaller tweaks:
    • all: Forces flog to report scores on all classes and methods. Without this option flog will only give results up to a certain threshold.
    • continue: Makes it so that flog does not abort when a ruby file cannot be parsed.
    • methods: Configures flog to skip code outside of methods. It prevents flog from reporting on the "methods" private and protected. It also prevents flog from reporting on Rails methods like before_action and has_many.

Alternative Usage Methods

If you're fond of Guard you might like guard-rubycritic. It automatically analyses your Ruby files as they are modified.

For continuous integration, you can give Jenkins CI a spin. With it, you can easily build your own (poor-man's) Code Climate!

Rake Task

You can use RubyCritic as Rake command in its most simple form like this:

require "rubycritic/rake_task"

RubyCritic::RakeTask.new

A more sophisticated Rake task that would make use of all available configuration options could look like this:

RubyCritic::RakeTask.new do |task|
  # Name of RubyCritic task. Defaults to :rubycritic.
  task.name    = 'something_special'

  # Glob pattern to match source files. Defaults to FileList['.'].
  task.paths   = FileList['vendor/**/*.rb']

  # You can pass all the options here in that are shown by "rubycritic -h" except for
  # "-p / --path" since that is set separately. Defaults to ''.
  task.options = '--mode-ci --format json'

  # Defaults to false
  task.verbose = true
end

RubyCritic will try to open the generated report with a browser by default. If you don't want this you can prevent this behaviour by setting the options correspondingly:

RubyCritic::RakeTask.new do |task|
  task.options = '--no-browser'
end

Compatibility

RubyCritic is supporting:

  • 2.1
  • 2.2
  • 2.3

Improving RubyCritic

RubyCritic doesn't have to remain a second choice to other code quality analysis services. Together, we can improve it and continue to build on the great code metric tools that are available in the Ruby ecosystem.

Arguably, the better_errors gem only got popular after receiving a (pretty awesome) Pull Request that changed its page design.

Similarly, Pull Requests that improve the look and feel of the gem, that tweak the calculation of ratings or that fix existing issues will be most welcome. Just commenting on an issue and giving some insight into how something should work will be appreciated. No contribution is too small.
