👣 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 Galtzo FLOSS Logo by Aboling0, CC BY-SA 4.0 ruby-lang Logo, Yukihiro Matsumoto, Ruby Visual Identity Team, CC BY-SA 2.5

Extended standard (Standard Ruby) config shims for any and every version of Ruby, back to Ruby version 1.8. Enables Ruby projects to more confidently support even the most finely-aged Rubies. Part of the rubocop-lts gem family.

Use the rules standard gives you, and then add more, to increase your code's compatibility across multiple versions of Ruby.

Only reach as far back as you need to go.

The RuboCop LTS family of gems is the distillation of Ruby source-compatibility expertise into per-Ruby-version sets of configurations. It remains unsafe to upgrade RuboCop, or Standard, in a project that supports EOL Rubies.

Avoid bike-shedding, use rubocop-lts in every project, and let it manage your linting complexity.

Compatibility

Compatible with MRI Ruby 3.2.0+, and concordant releases of JRuby, and TruffleRuby. CI workflows and Appraisals are generated for MRI Ruby 3.2.0+. 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 standard-rubocop-lts

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

gem install standard-rubocop-lts

⚙️ Configuration

🔧 Basic Usage

Add to the top of your project's .rubocop.yml configuration file:

inherit_gem:
  # Replace {RUBY_MAJOR_VERSION} with the minimum major version of ruby you want to target.
  # Replace {RUBY_MINOR_VERSION} with the minimum minor version of ruby you want to target.
  standard-rubocop-lts: config/ruby-{RUBY_MAJOR_VERSION}.{RUBY_MINOR_VERSION}.yml
What will this do for me? Among other settings specific to your chosen minimum version of ruby, the above _effectively_ results in the following config (& more): ```yaml # We want the Exclude and Include directives from different # config files to get merged, not overwritten inherit_mode: merge: - Exclude - Include require: - standard-rubocop-lts - standard - standard-performance - standard-custom - rubocop-performance # Load basic rules for this version of Ruby from standard. # Rules are overridden in a LIFO stack. # If rubocop-performance is listed first, and standard-performance after it, # then rubocop-performance's rules will take precedence. # This is the opposite of what you might expect. # Below: standard's rules override rubocop-performance's (mostly disabling rules) inherit_gem: standard: config/ruby-1.8.yml standard-performance: config/ruby-1.8.yml standard-custom: config/base.yml rubocop-performance: config/default.yml AllCops: NewCops: enable # See: # https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-performance/issues/240 # https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-performance/pull/241 Performance/Casecmp: Enabled: false # See: https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-performance/issues/329#issuecomment-1375527811 Performance/BlockGivenWithExplicitBlock: Enabled: false # See: https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-performance/issues/329#issuecomment-1451511402 Performance/ArraySemiInfiniteRangeSlice: Enabled: false # See: https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-performance/issues/329#issuecomment-1451511402 Performance/BigDecimalWithNumericArgument: Enabled: false # See: https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-performance/issues/329#issuecomment-1451511402 Performance/IoReadlines: Enabled: false # Plus: Ruby-version-specific configs provided by "standard" family of gems # Plus+: Ruby-version-specific configs that standard does not have ```

What about TargetRubyVersion?

Instead of directly using this gem, standard-rubocop-lts, use rubocop-lts, which depends on this gem. Then you don't need to worry about it, as it will be configured for you by rubocop-lts.

# NOTE: Picking the right version of rubocop-lts automatically aligns:
#       - gemspec's required_ruby_version
#       - RuboCop's TargetRubyVersion
# e.g. v24 for Ruby >= 3.2.0
gem "rubocop-lts", "~> 24.0", require: false

🚀 Release Instructions

🦷 FLOSS Funding

While rubocop-lts 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 rubocop-lts tools we'd appreciate it if you suggest to your company to become a rubocop-lts sponsor.

You can support the development of rubocop-lts 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.

Open Collective for Individuals

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 Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 for its public API where practical. For most applications, prefer the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.

For example:

spec.add_dependency("standard-rubocop-lts", "~> 2.0")
📌 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]

🤑 A request for help

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.
