airbnb/ruby

rubocop-airbnb is a Ruby gem that enforces Airbnb's coding standards by bundling a comprehensive suite of RuboCop cops for style, security, and Rails best practices. It integrates with RuboCop's modern plugin architecture to automatically load dependent extensions like rubocop-rails and rubocop-rspec, ensuring consistent linting across projects without manual configuration.

This release adds a comprehensive suite of RuboCop cops enforcing the Airbnb Ruby style guide. Key additions include checks for Rails autoloading compliance (ensuring classes, modules, constants, and methods are defined in files matching their names), factory bot best practices (requiring string class names and lazy attribute evaluation to speed up test runs), and RSpec hygiene (preventing namespace pollution in specs and unsafe environment modifications). The suite also enforces general Ruby style rules such as avoiding default positional arguments, restricting modifier conditionals, and banning unsafe YAML/Marshal methods that could lead to remote code execution.

The gem now uses RuboCop's native plugin system (supported in RuboCop 1.72+) instead of the legacy \require\ method, requiring users to update their \.rubocop.yml\ configuration to include \plugins: - rubocop-airbnb\. This release also bumps the minimum required versions for RuboCop and its related gems (rubocop-performance, rubocop-rails, rubocop-rspec) and adds explicit dependencies for rubocop-capybara and rubocop-factory\_bot. Additionally, it fixes warnings caused by the renaming of the \Naming/PredicateName\ cop to \Naming/PredicatePrefix\ in RuboCop v1.76.0.

The library has been refactored to integrate with RuboCop's plugin system via LintRoller, replacing the previous loading mechanism. This change introduces a dedicated plugin class that registers the default configuration and an inflections module for string handling, enabling users to load the Airbnb style guide as a standard RuboCop plugin rather than through legacy methods.

The RuboCop Airbnb gem now explicitly requires the rubocop-performance and rubocop-rails gems upon initialization. This ensures that users of the Airbnb configuration automatically get the rules and behaviors from these popular RuboCop extensions without needing to manually add them to their own project configurations.

Added comprehensive RSpec test suites for the Airbnb RuboCop gem, covering cops such as ClassOrModuleDeclaredInWrongFile, ConstAssignedInWrongFile, ContinuationSlash, DefaultScope, FactoryAttrReferencesClass, FactoryClassUseString, MassAssignmentAccessibleModifier, ModuleMethodInWrongFile, NoTimeout, OptArgParameters, PhraseBundleKeys, RiskyActiverecordInvocation, RspecDescribeOrContextUnderNamespace, RspecEnvironmentModification, SimpleModifierConditional, SimpleUnless, SpecConstantAssignment, and UnsafeYamlMarshal. The tests verify that these cops correctly flag violations related to Rails autoloading, factory syntax, code style, and security risks, and include a spec helper to load the cops and configure RSpec expectations.

The rubocop-airbnb gem is introduced as a standalone package for Airbnb's custom code style and linting rules. It requires Ruby 2.7 or higher and integrates with RuboCop 1.76 via the lint\_roller plugin system. The gem bundles several RuboCop extensions including rubocop-capybara, rubocop-factory\_bot, rubocop-performance, rubocop-rails, and rubocop-rspec to enforce consistent coding standards across projects.
