Rule

open class Rule(val config: Config, val description: String) : DetektVisitor

A rule defines how one specific code structure should look like. If code is found which does not meet this structure, it is considered as harmful regarding maintainability or readability.

A rule is implemented using the visitor pattern and should be started using the visit(KtFile) function. If calculations must be done before or after the visiting process, here are two predefined (preVisit/postVisit) functions which can be overridden to setup/teardown additional data.

fun visitFile(root: KtFile, bindingContext: BindingContext = BindingContext.EMPTY, compilerResources: CompilerResources): List<Finding>

Before starting visiting kotlin elements, a check is performed if this rule should be triggered. Pre- and post-visit-hooks are executed before/after the visiting process. BindingContext holds the result of the semantic analysis of the source code by the Kotlin compiler. Rules that rely on symbols and types being resolved can use the BindingContext for this analysis. Note that detekt must receive the correct compile classpath for the code being analyzed otherwise the default value BindingContext.EMPTY will be used and it will not be possible for detekt to resolve types or symbols.
