RailsRouteChecker

A linting tool that helps you find any routes defined in your routes.rb file that don't have a corresponding controller action, and find any _path or _url calls that don't have a corresponding route in the routes.rb file.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rails-route-checker', require: false

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rails-route-checker

Usage

Run rails-route-checker from your command line while in the root folder of your Rails application.

You may also specify a custom config file using the -c or --config flag. By default, the config file is search for at .rails-route-checker.yml. More information on the config file can be found below.

rails-route-checker will scan controllers along with Haml and ERb view files.

bundle exec rails-route-checker

The following 1 routes are defined, but have no corresponding controller action.
If you have recently added a route to routes.rb, make sure a matching action exists in the controller.
If you have recently removed a controller action, also remove the route in routes.rb.
 - oauth_apps/authorizations#show


The following 1 url and path methods don't correspond to any route.
 - app/controllers/application_controller.rb:L707 - call to potential_url

Config file

By default, rails-route-checker will look for a config file .rails-route-checker.yml. However, you can override this by using the --config command line flag.

The following is an example config file:

# Any controllers you don't want to check
ignored_controllers:
  - oauth_apps/authorizations

# Any paths or url methods that you want to be globally ignored
# i.e. confirmation_url and confirmation_path will never be linted against
ignored_paths:
  - confirmation

# For specific files, ignore specific path or url calls
ignored_path_whitelist:
  app/controllers/application_controller.rb:
      - potential_url
  app/views/my_controller/my_view.haml:
    - paginate_url

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Contributing

Feel free to fork this repo and open a PR. Alongside your changes, please add a line to CHANGELOG.md.

Testing

To test this gem in different envrionments with different gem version (such as the haml gem), we are using Appraisal.

First, you need to generate the differents Gemfiles, only needed for the tests:

bundle exec appraisal install

Then, to run the tests, you have to use the following command:

bundle exec appraisal rake test
