Overview

This cop looks for belongs_to associations where we control whether the association is required via the deprecated ‘required` option instead.

Since Rails 5, belongs_to associations are required by default and this can be controlled through the use of ‘optional: true`.

From the release notes:

belongs_to will now trigger a validation error by default if the
association is not present. You can turn this off on a
per-association basis with optional: true. Also deprecate required
option in favor of optional for belongs_to. (Pull Request)

In the case that the developer is doing ‘required: false`, we definitely want to autocorrect to `optional: true`.

However, without knowing whether they’ve set overridden the default value of ‘config.active_record.belongs_to_required_by_default`, we can’t say whether it’s safe to remove ‘required: true` or whether we should replace it with `optional: false` (or, similarly, remove a superfluous `optional: false`). Therefore, in the cases we’re using ‘required: true`, we’ll simply invert it to ‘optional: false` and the user can remove depending on their defaults.

Examples:

# bad
class Post < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :blog, required: false
end

# good
class Post < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :blog, optional: true
end

# bad
class Post < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :blog, required: true
end

# good
class Post < ApplicationRecord
  belongs_to :blog, optional: false
end
