Consider using Array() to ensure the type is that of an array (...read more)

The rule "Use Array() to ensure your variable is an array" is important for ensuring your code behaves as expected, regardless of the type of data it receives. It is common in Ruby to need to iterate through an array of items. However, if the variable is not an array, this can lead to unexpected behavior or errors.

The Array() method in Ruby is a Kernel method that converts its argument to an Array. If the argument is already an Array, it returns the argument. If the argument is nil, it returns an empty Array. This can be used to ensure that a variable is an array before trying to iterate over it, preventing potential errors or unexpected behavior.

By using Array(foos), you can ensure that foos is an array before you try to iterate over it with each. This prevents the need to check if foos is an array with foos.is_a?(Array) and makes your code cleaner and easier to understand.

Consider using the %W syntax instead (...read more)

The rule "Prefer %w to the literal array syntax" is a Ruby style guideline that encourages the use of %w notation instead of the traditional array syntax when defining arrays of strings. This rule is part of the Ruby community's efforts to promote readability and simplicity in Ruby code.

This rule is important because it helps to keep the code concise and easy to read. The %w notation allows you to define an array of strings without having to use quotes and commas. This can make the code cleaner and easier to understand, especially when dealing with large arrays.

To follow this rule, replace the traditional array syntax with the %w notation. For example, instead of writing ['foo', 'bar', 'baz'], you should write %w[foo bar baz]. This will create the same array, but in a more readable and concise way. By following this rule, you can help to make your Ruby code cleaner and easier to understand.

Consider using symbols instead of string hash keys (...read more)

In Ruby, it is a best practice to use symbols instead of strings as hash keys. This rule emphasizes that it's more efficient and idiomatic to use symbols for this purpose. Symbols are immutable and unique, which makes them ideal for identifying things, whereas strings are mutable and can create multiple objects for the same sequence of characters.

The importance of this rule lies in the performance and memory usage of your Ruby application. Using symbols as hash keys reduces memory usage because they are stored in memory only once during a Ruby process. This can make a significant difference in the efficiency of your application, especially when dealing with large data sets.

To ensure you're following good coding practices, always use symbols for hash keys unless there's a specific reason to use a string. A simple refactoring from values = { 'foo' => 42, 'bar' => 99, 'baz' => 123 } to values = { foo: 42, bar: 99, baz: 123 } will make your code compliant with this rule. This not only improves your code's performance but also makes it more readable and consistent with Ruby's conventions.
