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

Overview

Newcomers to ruby applications may write top-level methods, when ideally they should be organized in appropriate classes or modules. This cop looks for definitions of top-level methods and warns about them.

However for ruby scripts it is perfectly fine to use top-level methods. Hence this cop is disabled by default.

Examples:

# bad
def some_method
end

# bad
def self.some_method
end

# bad
define_method(:foo) { puts 1 }

# good
module Foo
  def some_method
  end
end

# good
class Foo
  def self.some_method
  end
end

# good
Struct.new do
  def some_method
  end
end

# good
class Foo
  define_method(:foo) { puts 1 }
end
