Extended by:

Includes:

Defined in:
lib/rubocop/cop/style/alias.rb

Overview

Enforces the use of either #alias or #alias_method depending on configuration. It also flags uses of alias :symbol rather than alias bareword.

However, it will always enforce method_alias when used alias in an instance method definition and in a singleton method definition. If used in a block, always enforce alias_method unless it is an instance_eval block.

Examples:

EnforcedStyle: prefer_alias (default)

# bad
alias_method :bar, :foo
alias :bar :foo

# good
alias bar foo

EnforcedStyle: prefer_alias_method

# bad
alias :bar :foo
alias bar foo

# good
alias_method :bar, :foo
