Naming/RescuedExceptionsVariableName

Safe autocorrect: Yes
✅ The autocorrect a cop does is safe (equivalent) by design.

Description

Overview

Makes sure that rescued exceptions variables are named as
expected.

The PreferredName config option takes a String. It represents
the required name of the variable. Its default is e.

NOTE: This cop does not consider nested rescues because it cannot
guarantee that the variable from the outer rescue is not used within
the inner rescue (in which case, changing the inner variable would
shadow the outer variable).

Examples

PreferredName: e (default)

# bad
begin
  # do something
rescue MyException => exception
  # do something
end

# good
begin
  # do something
rescue MyException => e
  # do something
end

# good
begin
  # do something
rescue MyException => _e
  # do something
end

PreferredName: exception

# bad
begin
  # do something
rescue MyException => e
  # do something
end

# good
begin
  # do something
rescue MyException => exception
  # do something
end

# good
begin
  # do something
rescue MyException => _exception
  # do something
end
