CheckSuperCalls

Script that checks if Swift and Objective C subclasses call specific superclass methods.

Missing super calls in subclasses create unusual and hard to debug issues. Having suffered in the past on a few projects, an automatic tool would help reduce above problems. It checks by regex if a file overrides speciffic methods. Then it checks with another regex that it calls it's parent class counterpart.

Only the following are implemented:

• viewDidLoad
• viewWillAppear
• viewDidAppear
• viewWillDisappear
• viewDidDisappear
• viewWillLayoutSubviews
• viewDidLayoutSubviews
• init(nibName..)

Feel free to reach out with suggestions.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'check_super_calls'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install check_super_calls

Usage

Run check-super-calls path/to/project/directory.

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.
