💎 Appraisal2::Rubocop
if ci_badges.map(&:color).detect { it != "green"} ☝️ let me know, as I may have missed the discord notification.
if ci_badges.map(&:color).all? { it == "green"} 👇️ send money so I can do more of this. FLOSS maintenance is now my full-time job.
👣 How will this project approach the September 2025 hostile takeover of RubyGems? 🚑️
I've summarized my thoughts in [this blog post](https://dev.to/galtzo/hostile-takeover-of-rubygems-my-thoughts-5hlo).🌻 Synopsis

Runs RuboCop against Appraisal2-generated gemfiles via Appraisal2 lifecycle hooks.
This plugin is intended for modern Ruby style-maintenance environments. It does not match Appraisal2's legacy runtime floor.
Load it as an Appraisal2 generator plugin, and make its RuboCop toolchain available only to the generator bundle.

Compatibility
Compatible with MRI Ruby 3.1.0+, and concordant releases of JRuby, and TruffleRuby.
CI workflows and Appraisals are generated for MRI Ruby 3.1.0+.
This test floor is configured by ruby.test_minimum in .kettle-jem.yml and
may be higher than the gem's runtime compatibility floor when legacy Rubies are
not practical for the current toolchain.

✨ Installation
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
bundle add appraisal2-rubocop
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
gem install appraisal2-rubocop
⚙️ Configuration
APPRAISAL2_RUBOCOP=falsedisables the hook.APPRAISAL2_RUBOCOP_COMMANDoverrides the executable.APPRAISAL2_RUBOCOP_FLAGSoverrides the default--autocorrectflag list.
🔧 Basic Usage
Add the plugin to the style toolchain used by the Appraisal root bundle:
# gemfiles/modular/style.gemfile
gem "appraisal2-rubocop", "~> 0.1", ">= 0.1.0", require: false
Expose that style toolchain only to the Appraisal generator bundle:
# Appraisal.root.gemfile
if Gem::Version.new(RUBY_VERSION) >= Gem::Version.new("3.2")
if respond_to?(:generator_only)
generator_only do
eval_gemfile "gemfiles/modular/style.gemfile"
end
else
eval_gemfile "gemfiles/modular/style.gemfile"
end
end
The respond_to?(:generator_only) split is for the two DSLs that read this
file: Appraisal2 uses the generator_only block when building generated
appraisal gemfiles, while Bundler evaluates the same file to install the
generator bundle.
Load the plugin from Appraisals:
plugin "appraisal2-rubocop", require: "appraisal2/rubocop", optional: true
By default each generated gemfile is processed in memory with:
rubocop --stdin path/to/generated.gemfile --autocorrect --stderr --format quiet

🦷 FLOSS Funding
While appraisal-rb tools are free software and will always be, the project would benefit immensely from some funding. Raising a monthly budget of... "dollars" would make the project more sustainable.
We welcome both individual and corporate sponsors! We also offer a wide array of funding channels to account for your preferences. Currently, Open Collective is our preferred funding platform.
If you're working in a company that's making significant use of appraisal-rb tools we'd appreciate it if you suggest to your company to become a appraisal-rb sponsor.
You can support the development of appraisal-rb tools via GitHub Sponsors, Liberapay, PayPal, Open Collective and Tidelift.
| 📍 NOTE |
|---|
| If doing a sponsorship in the form of donation is problematic for your company from an accounting standpoint, we'd recommend the use of Tidelift, where you can get a support-like subscription instead. |

Another way to support open-source
I’m driven by a passion to foster a thriving open-source community – a space where people can tackle complex problems, no matter how small. Revitalizing libraries that have fallen into disrepair, and building new libraries focused on solving real-world challenges, are my passions. I was recently affected by layoffs, and the tech jobs market is unwelcoming. I’m reaching out here because your support would significantly aid my efforts to provide for my family, and my farm (11 🐔 chickens, 2 🐶 dogs, 3 🐰 rabbits, 8 🐈 cats).
If you work at a company that uses my work, please encourage them to support me as a corporate sponsor. My work on gems you use might show up in bundle fund.
I’m developing a new library, floss_funding, designed to empower open-source developers like myself to get paid for the work we do, in a sustainable way. Please give it a look.

📌 Versioning
This library follows for its public API where practical.
For most applications, prefer the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.
For example:
spec.add_dependency("appraisal2-rubocop", "~> 0.0")
📌 Is "Platform Support" part of the public API? More details inside.
Dropping support for a platform can be a breaking change for affected users. If a release changes supported platforms, it should be called out clearly in the changelog and versioned with that impact in mind. To get a better understanding of how SemVer is intended to work over a project's lifetime, read this article from the creator of SemVer: - ["Major Version Numbers are Not Sacred"][📌major-versions-not-sacred]See CHANGELOG.md for a list of releases.

Maintainers have teeth and need to pay their dentists. After getting laid off in an RIF in March, and encountering difficulty finding a new one, I began spending most of my time building open source tools. I'm hoping to be able to pay for my kids' health insurance this month, so if you value the work I am doing, I need your support. Please consider sponsoring me or the project.
