Diktatは、KTLINTの上に構築された抽象的構文ツリー(AST)訪問者として実装されたKotlinコードスタイルのルールのコレクションで構成されるKotlinの厳格なコーディング標準です。継続的な統合/継続的展開(CI/CD)プロセスでコードの臭いを検出し、自動的に修正する目的に役立ちます。サポートされているルールと検査の包括的なリストはこちらで見つけることができます。
Diktatは認識を獲得し、静的分析ツール、Kotlin-Awesome、Komparのリストに追加されました。このサポートには、コミュニティに感謝します!

detektやktlintなどの静的分析を実行するなど、他のツールがありますが、なぜDiktatが必要なのか疑問に思うかもしれません。主な理由は次のとおりです。
その他の検査: Diktatは、そのコードスタイルと密接に100を超える検査を誇っています。
ユニークな検査: diktatは、他のリナーにはないユニークな検査を導入します。
高度に構成可能:すべての検査は高度に構成可能であり、カスタマイズと抑制を可能にします。構成オプションと抑制を確認してください。
Strict Codestyle: Diktatは、プロジェクトに採用および適用できる詳細なコードスタイルを実施します。
Diktatを手動でダウンロード:こちら
またはcurlを使用します:
curl -sSLO https://github.com/saveourtool/diktat/releases/download/v2.0.0/diktat && chmod a+x diktatWindowsのみ。 diktat.cmdを手動でダウンロード:こちら
最後に、ktlint(diktatが注入された)を実行して、 'dir/your/dir'で '*.kt'ファイルを確認します。
$ ./diktat " dir/your/dir/**/*.kt "Windowsで
diktat.bat "dir/your/dir/**/*.kt"
すべてのコードスタイル違反をAutofixに、 --mode fixオプションを使用します。
あなたはそれが私たちの例でどのように構成されているかを見ることができます:
< plugin >
< groupId >com.saveourtool.diktat</ groupId >
< artifactId >diktat-maven-plugin</ artifactId >
< version >${diktat.version}</ version >
< executions >
< execution >
< id >diktat</ id >

< excludes >
< exclude >${project.basedir}/src/test/kotlin/excluded</ exclude >
</ excludes >
</ configuration >
</ execution >
</ executions >
</ plugin > Check Modeでdiktatを実行するには、コマンド$ mvn diktat:check@diktat 。 AutoCorRectモードでDiktatを実行するには、コマンド$ mvn diktat:fix@diktat 。
これらの場合には、コマンドライン(上記の例では後続のdiktat )で特定のMaven executionId要求することが不可欠です。
pom.xmlでは、異なる構成で複数の実行があります(例:複数のルールセット):
< executions >
< execution >
< id >diktat-basic</ id >
< configuration >
< diktatConfigFile >diktat-analysis.yml</ diktatConfigFile >
</ configuration >
</ execution >
< execution >
< id >diktat-advanced</ id >
< configuration >
< diktatConfigFile >diktat-analysis-advanced.yml</ diktatConfigFile >
</ configuration >
</ execution >
</ executions >diktatルールを備えたyamlファイルには、非デフォルト名があり、非デフォルトの場所に存在します。
< executions >
< execution >
< id >diktat</ id >
< configuration >
< diktatConfigFile >/non/default/rule-set-file.yml</ diktatConfigFile >
</ configuration >
</ execution >
</ executions >diktatConfigFileを省略するか、存在しないファイルを指している場合は、diktatがデフォルトの構成で実行されます。 executionIdを省略した場合:
$ mvn diktat:check - プラグインは、デフォルトの構成を使用し、プロジェクトディレクトリのdiktat-analysis.ymlファイルを検索します(YAMLファイルを編集してルールセットをカスタマイズできます)。
7.0を超えないGradleバージョンが必要です
私たちの例でプラグインがどのように構成されているかを見ることができます:
plugins {
id( " com.saveourtool.diktat " ) version " 2.0.0 "
}プラグインをマルチモジュールプロジェクトに適用する場合は注意してください」
import com.saveourtool.diktat.plugin.gradle.DiktatGradlePlugin plugins { id( " com.saveourtool.diktat " ) version " 2.0.0 " apply false } allprojects { apply< DiktatGradlePlugin >() }
その後、 diktat拡張子を使用してdiktatを構成できます。
diktat {
inputs {
include( " src/**/*.kt " ) // path matching this pattern (per PatternFilterable) that will be checked by diktat
exclude( " src/test/kotlin/excluded/** " ) // path matching this pattern will not be checked by diktat
}
debug = true // turn on debug logging
}また、 diktat拡張では、異なるレポーターとその出力を構成できます。 json 、 html 、 sarif 、 plain (デフォルト)を指定できます。 outputが設定されている場合、ファイルパスである必要があります。設定されていない場合、結果はstdoutに印刷されます。複数の記者を指定できます。レポーターが指定されていない場合、 stdoutでplain出力として使用されます。
diktat {
reporters {
plain()
json()
html {
output = file( " someFile.html " )
}
// checkstyle()
// sarif()
// gitHubActions()
}
} Task ./gradlew diktatCheckを使用してDiktatチェックを実行し、タスク./gradlew diktatFixでエラーを自動的に修正できます。
Spotlessは、リナーアグリゲーターです。
Diktatは、バージョン5.10.0以降、Spotles-Gradle-Pluginを介して実行できます
plugins {
id( " com.diffplug.spotless " ) version " 5.10.0 "
}
spotless {
kotlin {

}
kotlinGradle {

}
}spotless {
kotlin {
diktat( " 2.0.0 " ).configFile( " full/path/to/diktat-analysis.yml " )
}
}Diktatは、バージョン2.8.0以降、Spotless-Maven-Pluginを介して実行できます
< plugin >

大規模な既存のプロジェクトでコードスタイル分析をセットアップする場合、多くの場合、すべての調査結果を一度に修正する機能がありません。段階的な採用を可能にするために、DiktatとKTLINTはベースラインモードをサポートします。アクティブなベースラインで初めてKTLINTを実行すると、ベースラインファイルが生成されます。これは、ツールによる調査結果の完全なリストを備えたXMLファイルです。その後の呼び出しでは、ベースラインファイルにない結果のみが報告されます。ベースラインは、CLIフラグでアクティブにできます。
./diktat --baseline=diktat-baseline.xml ** / * .ktまたは、MavenまたはGradleプラグインの対応する構成オプションを使用します。ベースラインレポートはVCSに追加することを目的としていますが、必要に応じて後で削除して再生することができます。

このドキュメントの目的は、ソフトウェア開発者が一貫した、読みやすく、高品質のコードを記述する能力を高めるために参照できるようにすることができるようにすることです。このような仕様は、最終的にソフトウェア開発の効率と製品の競争力を向上させます。コードを高品質と見なすには、次の特性を伴う必要があります。
他の最新のプログラミング言語と同様に、Kotlinは次の一般原則に準拠する高度なプログラミング言語です。
また、Kotlinでプログラミングするときは、次の要因を考慮する必要があります。
クリーンでシンプルなコトリンコードを書く
Kotlinは、機能とオブジェクト指向の2つの主要なプログラミングパラダイムを組み合わせています。これらのパラダイムはどちらも信頼され、有名なソフトウェアエンジニアリングの実践です。若いプログラミング言語として、KotlinはJava、C ++、C#、Scalaなどの十分に確立された言語の上に構築されています。これにより、Kotlinは、開発者がよりクリーナー、より読みやすいコードを作成しながら、複雑なコード構造の数を減らすのに役立つ多くの機能を導入できます。たとえば、タイプとヌルの安全性、拡張機能、INFIX構文、不変性、VAL/VARの分化、式指向の機能、「ステートメント」、コレクションのはるかに簡単な作業、タイプ自動変換、およびその他の構文砂糖。
コトリンイディオムに続きます
Kotlinの著者であるAndrey Breslavは、Kotlinは実用的で実用的であるが、学術的ではないと述べました。その実用的な機能により、アイデアを実際の作業ソフトウェアに簡単に変えることができます。 Kotlinは前任者よりも自然言語に近づいており、次の設計原則を実装しています:読みやすさ、再利用可能性、相互運用性、セキュリティ、ツールフレンドリー(https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2018/10/10/kotlinconf-2018-Announcements/)。
Kotlinを効率的に使用します
いくつかのKotlin機能は、リッチコルーチンライブラリ、シーケンス、インライン関数/クラス、基本的なタイプの配列、Tailrec、および契約コールインを含む、より高いパフォーマンスコードを作成するのに役立ちます。
ルール- プログラミング時に従うべき規則。
推奨事項- プログラミング時に考慮すべき規則。
説明- ルールと推奨事項の必要な説明。
有効な例- ルールと推奨事項の推奨例。
無効な例- ルールと推奨事項の推奨される例。
特に明記しない限り、この仕様はバージョン1.3以降のKotlinに適用されます。
例外が存在する場合がありますが、ルールと推奨事項が必要な理由を理解することが不可欠です。プロジェクトの状況や個人の習慣に応じて、いくつかのルールを破ることができます。ただし、1つの例外が多くの人につながり、最終的にコードの一貫性を破壊する可能性があることを忘れないでください。そのため、例外はほとんどないはずです。オープンソースコードまたはサードパーティコードを変更する場合、このオープンソースプロジェクトのコードスタイルを(既存の仕様を使用する代わりに)使用して、一貫性を維持することを選択できます。 Androidフレームワークなど、Androidネイティブオペレーティングシステムインターフェイスに直接基づいたソフトウェアは、Androidスタイルと一致しています。
プログラミングでは、変数、関数、クラスなどに意味的かつ適切に名前を付けることは必ずしも容易ではありません。意味のある名前を使用すると、コードの主なアイデアと機能性を明確に表現し、誤解、不必要なコーディングとデコード、「魔法」数、不適切な略語を避けることができます。
注:ソースファイルエンコード形式(コメントを含む)は、UTF-8のみである必要があります。 ASCIIの水平スペース文字(0x20、つまりスペース)は、許可されている唯一の白文字です。インデントにはタブを使用しないでください。
このセクションでは、識別子を命名するための一般的なルールについて説明します。
識別子には、次の命名規則を使用します。
すべての識別子はASCII文字または数字のみを使用する必要があり、名前は正規式w{2,64}に一致する必要があります。説明:各有効な識別子名は、正規式w{2,64}と一致する必要があります。 {2,64} 、名前の長さが2〜64文字であり、変数名の長さはその寿命、機能、責任に比例する必要があることを意味します。通常、31文字未満の名前の長さをお勧めします。ただし、これはプロジェクトに依存します。それ以外の場合、スーパークラスからのジェネリックまたは継承とのクラス宣言は、ライン破壊を引き起こす可能性があります。名前に特別なプレフィックスまたはサフィックスを使用する必要はありません。次の例には、name_、mname、s_name、およびnameの不適切な名前があります。
コンテンツを記述するファイル名を選択します。 Camel Case(Pascalcase)および.kt拡張機能を使用します。
命名の典型的な例:
| 意味 | 正しい | 正しくない |
|---|---|---|
| 「XML HTTPリクエスト」 | xmlhttprequest | xmlhttprequest |
| 「新しい顧客ID」 | newcustomerid | newcustomerid |
| 「インナーストップウォッチ」 | InnerStopWatch | InnerStopWatch |
| 「iOSでIPv6をサポート」 | supportsipv6onios | supportsipv6onios |
| 「YouTube輸入業者」 | YouTubeImporter | YouTubeImporter |
val `my dummy name - with - minus` = " value "唯一の例外は、 Unit tests.
@Test fun `my test` () { /* ... */ }| 期待される | 混乱した名前 | 提案された名前 |
|---|---|---|
| 0(ゼロ) | o、d | obj、dgt |
| 1(1) | I、L | それ、ln、line |
| 2(2) | z | N1、N2 |
| 5(5) | s | XS、str |
| 6(6) | e | 元、エルム |
| 8(8) | b | BT、NXT |
| n、h | H、n | NR、ヘッド、高さ |
| RN、m | M、RN | MBR、アイテム |
例外:
e変数は、キャッチブロックで例外をキャッチするために使用できます: catch (e: Exception) {}| タイプ | 命名スタイル |
|---|---|
| インターフェイス、クラス、注釈、列挙型、およびオブジェクトタイプ名 | キャメルケース、キャピタルレターから始まります。テストクラスにはテストサフィックスがあります。ファイル名は「topclassname'.ktです。 |
| クラスフィールド、ローカル変数、メソッド、およびメソッドパラメーター | 低ケースレターで始まるラクダケース。テスト方法は、「_」で下線を引くことができます。唯一の例外は、バッキングプロパティです。 |
| 静的定数と列挙された値 | 「_」で下された大文字のみ |
| 汎用型変数 | 単一の大文字。たとえば、 E, T, U, X, T2数字が続くことができます。 |
| 例外 | クラス名と同じですが、 AccessException NullPointerException例外を使用します。 |
パッケージ名は小文字で、ドットで区切られています。会社内で開発されたコードはyour.company.domain.数字はパッケージ名で許可されています。各ファイルにはpackage指令が必要です。パッケージ名はすべて小文字で書かれており、連続した単語は一緒に連結されています(アンダースコアはありません)。パッケージ名には、他のチームとの競合を防ぐために、製品名またはモジュール名と部門(またはチーム)の両方の名前を含める必要があります。数字は許可されていません。例: org.apache.commons.lang3 、 xxx.yyy.v2 。
例外:
your.company.domain.com.example._123name 。org.example.hyphenated_name 、 int_.exampleなど、パッケージ名に予約されたJava/Kotlinキーワードが含まれている場合、アンダースコアが許可されることがあります。有効な例:
package your.company.domain.mobilecontrol.viewsこのセクションでは、命名クラス、列挙、およびインターフェイスの一般的なルールについて説明します。
クラス、列挙、およびインターフェイス名は、 UpperCamelCase命名法を使用します。以下の命名規則に従ってください。
クラス名は、通常、アッペルカメルケースなどのキャメルケースの命名法を使用して示される名詞(または名詞句)です。例: CharacterまたはImmutableList 。インターフェイス名は、名詞または名詞句( Listなど)または形容詞または形容詞の句( Readableなど)でもあります。動詞はクラスの名前に使用されないことに注意してください。ただし、名詞( Customer 、 WikiPage 、 Accountなど)を使用できます。 ManagerやProcessなどのあいまいな単語の使用を避けるようにしてください。
テストクラスは、テストしているクラスの名前から始まり、「テスト」で終わります。たとえば、 HashTestまたはHashIntegrationTest 。
無効な例:
class marcoPolo {}
class XMLService {}
interface TAPromotion {}
class info {}有効な例:
class MarcoPolo {}
class XmlService {}
interface TaPromotion {}
class Order {}このセクションでは、命名関数の一般的なルールについて説明します。
関数名は、 lowerCamelCase命名法を使用する必要があります。以下の命名規則に従ってください。
lowerCamelCase )で示される動詞または動詞フレーズです。例: sendMessage 、 stopProcess 、またはcalculateValue 。関数に名前を付けるには、次のフォーマットルールを使用します。a)特定の値を取得、変更、または計算するには: +ブール以外のフィールド()を取得します。 Kotlinコンパイラは、一部のクラスのGettersを自動的に生成し、「Get」フィールドに優先される特別な構文を適用します。 Kotlin Private Valフィールド:String get(){}。
private val field : String
get() {
}注:Calling Property Access構文は、Getterを直接呼び出すよりも推奨されます。この場合、Kotlinコンパイラは対応するゲッターを自動的に呼び出します。
b) is + boolean変数名()
c) +フィールド/属性名() set 。ただし、Kotlinの構文とコード生成は、ポイントaのゲッターについて説明したものと完全に同じであることに注意してください。
d) + noun / adumsive() has
e)動詞()注:注:動詞は主にdocument.print ()などのアクションオブジェクトに使用されます。
f)Verb + noun()
g)コールバック関数は、 onCreate() 、 onDestroy() 、 toString()など、前置詞 +動詞形式を使用する名前を許可します。
無効な例:
fun type (): String
fun Finished (): Boolean
fun visible (boolean)
fun DRAW ()
fun KeyListener ( Listener )有効な例:
fun getType (): String
fun isFinished (): Boolean
fun setVisible (boolean)
fun draw ()
fun addKeyListener ( Listener )_ )はJunitテスト機能名に含めることができ、セパレーターとして使用する必要があります。たとえば、各論理パーツは、アンダースコアを使用する典型的なパターン: pop_emptyStack 、 lowerCamelCaseで示されます。このセクションでは、制約の命名に関する一般的なルールについて説明します。
一定の名前は、アンダースコアで区切られた言葉で、言葉で隔たる必要があります。一般的な定数命名規則を以下に示します。
constキーワードまたはトップレベル/ valローカル変数を使用して作成された属性です。ほとんどの場合、定数は、 object / companion object /ファイルトップレベルのconst valプロパティとして識別できます。これらの変数には、通常、プログラマーによって変更されるべきではない固定定数値が含まれています。これには、基本的なタイプ、文字列、不変のタイプ、不変のタイプの不変のコレクションが含まれます。この状態を変更できるオブジェクトの値は一定ではありません。val変数が定数ではないことに注意してください。LoggerやLockなどの不変のコンテンツを持つオブジェクトは、定数として大文字であるか、通常の変数としてキャメルケースを持つことができます。magic numbers代わりに意味のある定数を使用します。 SQLまたはロギング文字列は、魔法の数字として扱われたり、文字列定数として定義する必要もありません。 NUM_FIVE = 5やNUM_5 = 5などの魔法の定数は、定数として扱われないでください。これは、ミスがNUM_5 = 50または55に変更された場合に簡単に行われるためです。これらの定数は通常、アルゴリズムの測定、容量、範囲、場所、税率、プロモーション割引、電力基盤の倍数などのビジネスロジック値を表します。次の方法で魔法の数字の使用を避けることができます。size == 0をチェックする代わりに、 isEmpty()関数を使用します。 timeとともに作業するには、 java.time APIのビルドインを使用します。無効な例:
var int MAXUSERNUM = 200 ;
val String sL = " Launcher " ;有効な例:
const val int MAX_USER_NUM = 200 ;
const val String APPLICATION_NAME = " Launcher " ;このセクションでは、命名変数の一般的なルールについて説明します。
制限的でないフィールド名は、キャメルケースを使用して、小文字から始めてください。ローカル変数は、最終的で不変であっても、一定として扱うことはできません。したがって、前のルールを使用しないでください。コレクションタイプの変数(セット、リストなど)の名前には複数名詞が含まれている必要があります。例: var namesList: List<String>
非定常変数の名前は、 lowerCamelCaseを使用する必要があります。 Singletonオブジェクトの保存に使用される最終的な不変のフィールドの名前は、同じラクダのケース表記を使用できます。
無効な例:
customername : String
user : List < String > = listof()有効な例:
var customerName : String
val users : List < String > = listOf ();
val mutableCollection : MutableSet < String > = HashSet ()否定的な意味でブール変数名を使用しないでください。否定的な意味を持つ論理演算子と名前を使用する場合、コードを理解するのが難しい場合があります。これは「ダブルネガ」と呼ばれます。たとえば、!isnoterrorの意味を理解することは容易ではありません。 Javabeans仕様は、ブールクラスの属性のISXXX()ゲッターを自動的に生成します。ただし、ブールタイプを返すすべてのメソッドにこの表記法があるわけではありません。ブールのローカル変数またはメソッドの場合、IS(一般的にJavabeansが使用する)、Can、Should、Mustを含む、意味のないプレフィックスを追加することを強くお勧めします。 Intellijなどの最新の統合開発環境(IDE)は、JavaでGettersを生成するときにすでにこれを行うことができます。 Kotlinの場合、このプロセスは、すべてがフードの下でバイトコードレベルにあるため、さらに簡単です。
無効な例:
val isNoError : Boolean
val isNotFound : Boolean
fun empty ()
fun next ();有効な例:
val isError : Boolean
val isFound : Boolean
val hasLicense : Boolean
val canEvaluate : Boolean
val shouldAbort : Boolean
fun isEmpty ()
fun hasNext ()ベストプラクティスは、コードを概要で開始することです。これは1つの文である可能性があります。コードの各行のコメントをまったく書くことと明白な解説ステートメントのバランスをとるようにしてください。クラス、インターフェイス、またはメソッドの名前を繰り返すことなく、コメントを正確かつ明確に表現する必要があります。コメントは、間違ったコードの解決策ではありません。代わりに、問題に気付いたらすぐに修正するか、それを修正する計画を立てる必要があります(JIRA番号を含むTODOコメントを入力することで)。コメントは、コードの設計アイデアとロジックを正確に反映し、そのビジネスロジックをさらに説明する必要があります。その結果、他のプログラマーは、コードを理解しようとするときに時間を節約できます。将来、コードの背後にある元のアイデアを理解するのに役立つコメントを書いていると想像してください。
KDOCは、Javadocのブロックタグ構文(Kotlinの特定の構造をサポートするために拡張)とMarkdownのインラインマークアップの組み合わせです。 KDOCの基本形式は、次の例に示されています。
/* *
* There are multiple lines of KDoc text,
* Other ...
*/
fun method ( arg : String ) {
// ...
}また、次のシングルライン形式にも表示されます。
/* * Short form of KDoc. */KDOCブロック全体を1行に保存するときは、シングルラインフォームを使用します(KDOC Mark @xxxはありません)。 KDOCの使用方法に関する詳細な手順については、公式文書を参照してください。
少なくとも、KDOCは、すべての一般、保護、または内部の装飾されたクラス、インターフェイス、列挙、方法、およびメンバーフィールド(プロパティ)に使用する必要があります。他のコードブロックには、必要に応じてKDOCを持つこともできます。クラスのプライマリコンストラクターのプロパティの前にコメントまたはKDOCを使用する代わりに、クラスのKDOCで@propertyタグを使用します。プライマリコンストラクターのすべてのプロパティは、 @propertyタグを備えたKDOCに文書化する必要があります。
間違った例:
/* *
* Class description
*/
class Example (
/* *
* property description
*/
val foo : Foo ,
// another property description
val bar : Bar
)正しい例:
/* *
* Class description
* @property foo property description
* @property bar another property description
*/
class Example (
val foo : Foo ,
val bar : Bar
)間違った例:
class Example {
fun doGood () {
/* *
* wrong place for kdoc
*/
1 + 2
}
}正しい例:
class Example {
fun doGood () {
/*
* right place for block comment
*/
1 + 2
}
}例外:
プロパティのセッター/ゲッターの場合、明らかなコメント( this getter returns fieldなど)はオプションです。 Kotlinは、フードの下に単純なget/setメソッドを生成することに注意してください。
以下の例に示すように、簡単なワンラインメソッドにコメントを追加することはオプションです。
val isEmpty : Boolean
get() = this .size == 0または
fun isEmptyList ( list : List < String >) = list.size == 0注: SuperClassメソッドとほぼ同じ場合は、メソッドのオーバーライドについてKDOCをスキップできます。
メソッドに引数、返品値、または例外をスローできるような詳細がある場合、KDOCブロック(@param、@return、 @throwsなど)で説明する必要があります。
有効な例:
/* *
* This is the short overview comment for the example interface.
* / * Add a blank line between the comment text and each KDoc tag underneath * /
* @since 1.6
*/
protected abstract class Sample {
/* *
* This is a long comment with whitespace that should be split in
* comments on multiple lines if the line comment formatting is enabled.
* / * Add a blank line between the comment text and each KDoc tag underneath * /
* @param fox A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
* @return battle between fox and dog
*/
protected abstract fun foo ( Fox fox)
/* *
* These possibilities include: Formatting of header comments
* / * Add a blank line between the comment text and each KDoc tag underneath * /
* @return battle between fox and dog
* @throws ProblemException if lazy dog wins
*/
protected fun bar () throws ProblemException {
// Some comments / * No need to add a blank line here * /
var aVar = .. .
// Some comments / * Add a blank line before the comment * /
fun doSome ()
}
}KDOCタグとコンテンツの間にスペースが1つしかないはずです。タグは次の順序で配置されます:@param、@return、および @throws。
したがって、KDOCには次のものを含める必要があります。
implSpec 、 apiNote 、およびimplNote )には、それらの後の空の行が必要です。@implSpec :API実装に関連する仕様であり、実装者がそれをオーバーライドするかどうかを決定できるようにする必要があります。@apiNote :NULLを許可するかどうか、メソッドがスレッドセーフであるかどうか、アルゴリズムの複雑さ、入力、出力範囲、例外などを含むAPIの予防策を説明します。@implNote :API実装に関連するメモ。実装者は留意する必要があります。@param 、 @return 、 @throws 、およびその他のコメントが続きます。@param 、 @return 、 @throws順序で配置されています。 kdocを含めるべきではありません。*/シンボル)の間に空の線はないはずです。@authorタグ。 git blameや選択したVCを使用して、変更の履歴を調べることができる場合、誰がクラスを作成したかは関係ありません。重要なメモ:@deprecatedタグをサポートしていません。代わりに、 @Deprecated Annotationを使用します。@sinceタグは、バージョンのみに使用する必要があります。 @sinceタグで日付を使用しないでください。混乱していて、正確ではありません。タグブロックを1つの行に記述できない場合は、 @位置から4つのスペースで新しい線のコンテンツをインデントして、アライメントを実現します( @ + 3つのスペースとして@カウント)。
例外:
When the descriptive text in a tag block is too long to wrap, you can indent the alignment with the descriptive text in the last line. The descriptive text of multiple tags does not need to be aligned. See 3.8 Horizontal space.
In Kotlin, compared to Java, you can put several classes inside one file, so each class should have a Kdoc formatted comment (as stated in rule 2.1). This comment should contain @since tag. The right style is to write the application version when its functionality is released. It should be entered after the @since tag.
例:
/* *
* Description of functionality
*
* @since 1.6
*/Other KDoc tags (such as @param type parameters and @see.) can be added as follows:
/* *
* Description of functionality
*
* @apiNote: Important information about API
*
* @since 1.6
*/This section describes the general rules of adding comments on the file header.
Comments on the file header should be placed before the package name and imports. If you need to add more content to the comment, subsequently add it in the same format.
Comments on the file header must include copyright information, without the creation date and author's name (use VCS for history management). Also, describe the content inside files that contain multiple or no classes.
The following examples for Huawei describe the format of the copyright license :
Chinese version:版权所有 (c) 华为技术有限公司 2012-2020
English version: Copyright (c) Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 2012-2020. All rights reserved. 2012 and 2020 are the years the file was first created and the current year, respectively.
Do not place release notes in header, use VCS to keep track of changes in file. Notable changes can be marked in individual KDocs using @since tag with version.
Invalid example:
/* *
* Release notes:
* 2019-10-11: added class Foo
*/
class FooValid example:
/* *
* @since 2.4.0
*/
class Foo The copyright statement can use your company's subsidiaries, as shown in the below examples:
Chinese version:版权所有 (c) 海思半导体 2012-2020
English version: Copyright (c) Hisilicon Technologies Co., Ltd. 2012-2020. All rights reserved.
The copyright information should not be written in KDoc style or use single-line comments. It must start from the beginning of the file. The following example is a copyright statement for Huawei, without other functional comments:

*/The following factors should be considered when writing the file header or comments for top-level classes:
*/ symbol. If it is a comment for a top-level class, the class declaration should start immediately without using a newline.@apiNote , the entire tag block should be deleted.Comments on the function header are placed above function declarations or definitions. A newline should not exist between a function declaration and its Kdoc. Use the preceding <<c2.1,KDoc>> style rules.
As stated in Chapter 1, the function name should reflect its functionality as much as possible. Therefore, in the Kdoc, try to describe the functionality that is not mentioned in the function name. Avoid unnecessary comments on dummy coding.
The function header comment's content is optional, but not limited to function description, return value, performance constraints, usage, memory conventions, algorithm implementation, reentrant requirements, etc.
This section describes the general rules of adding code comments.
It is a good practice to add a blank line between the body of the comment and Kdoc tag-blocks. Also, consider the following rules:
Valid Examples:
/* *
* This is the short overview comment for the example interface.
*
* @since 1.6
*/
public interface Example {
// Some comments /* Since it is the first member definition in this code block, there is no need to add a blank line here */
val aField : String = .. .
/* Add a blank line above the comment */
// Some comments
val bField : String = .. .
/* Add a blank line above the comment */
/* *
* This is a long comment with whitespace that should be split in
* multiple line comments in case the line comment formatting is enabled.
* /* blank line between description and Kdoc tag */
* @param fox A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
* @return the rounds of battle of fox and dog
*/
fun foo ( Fox fox)
/* Add a blank line above the comment */
/* *
* These possibilities include: Formatting of header comments
*
* @return the rounds of battle of fox and dog
* @throws ProblemException if lazy dog wins
*/
fun bar () throws ProblemException {
// Some comments /* Since it is the first member definition in this range, there is no need to add a blank line here */
var aVar = .. .
// Some comments /* Add a blank line above the comment */
fun doSome ()
}
}if-else-if scenario, put the comments inside the else-if branch or in the conditional block, but not before the else-if . This makes the code more understandable. When the if-block is used with curly braces, the comment should be placed on the next line after opening the curly braces. Compared to Java, the if statement in Kotlin statements returns a value. For this reason, a comment block can describe a whole if-statement .Valid examples:
val foo = 100 // right-side comment
val bar = 200 /* right-side comment */
// general comment for the value and whole if-else condition
val someVal = if (nr % 15 == 0 ) {
// when nr is a multiple of both 3 and 5
println ( " fizzbuzz " )
} else if (nr % 3 == 0 ) {
// when nr is a multiple of 3, but not 5
// We print "fizz", only.
println ( " fizz " )
} else if (nr % 5 == 0 ) {
// when nr is a multiple of 5, but not 3
// we print "buzz" only.
println ( " buzz " )
} else {
// otherwise, we print the number.
println (x)
}// , /* , /** and * )Valid example:
val x = 0 // this is a comment Do not comment on unused code blocks, including imports. Delete these code blocks immediately. A code is not used to store history. Git, svn, or other VCS tools should be used for this purpose. Unused imports increase the coupling of the code and are not conducive to maintenance. The commented out code cannot be appropriately maintained. In an attempt to reuse the code, there is a high probability that you will introduce defects that are easily missed. The correct approach is to delete the unnecessary code directly and immediately when it is not used anymore. If you need the code again, consider porting or rewriting it as changes could have occurred since you first commented on the code.
The code officially delivered to the client typically should not contain TODO/FIXME comments. TODO comments are typically used to describe modification points that need to be improved and added. For example, refactoring FIXME comments are typically used to describe known defects and bugs that will be subsequently fixed and are not critical for an application. They should all have a unified style to facilitate unified text search processing.
例:
// TODO(<author-name>): Jira-XXX - support new json format
// FIXME: Jira-XXX - fix NPE in this code blockAt a version development stage, these annotations can be used to highlight the issues in the code, but all of them should be fixed before a new product version is released.
This section describes the rules related to using files in your code.
If the file is too long and complicated, it should be split into smaller files, functions, or modules. Files should not exceed 2000 lines (non-empty and non-commented lines). It is recommended to horizontally or vertically split the file according to responsibilities or hierarchy of its parts. The only exception to this rule is code generation - the auto-generated files that are not manually modified can be longer.
A source file contains code blocks in the following order: copyright, package name, imports, and top-level classes. They should be separated by one blank line.
a) Code blocks should be in the following order:
@file annotationb) Each of the preceding code blocks should be separated by a blank line.
c) Import statements are alphabetically arranged, without using line breaks and wildcards ( wildcard imports - * ).
d) Recommendation : One .kt source file should contain only one class declaration, and its name should match the filename
e) Avoid empty files that do not contain the code or contain only imports/comments/package name
f) Unused imports should be removed
From top to bottom, the order is the following:
Each category should be alphabetically arranged. Each group should be separated by a blank line. This style is compatible with Android import order.
Valid example :
import android.* // android
import androidx.* // android
import com.android.* // android
import com.your.company.* // your company's libs
import your.company.* // your company's libs
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper // other third-party dependencies
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions
import java.io.IOException // java core packages
import java.net.URL
import kotlin.system.exitProcess // kotlin standard library
import kotlinx.coroutines.* // official kotlin extension library The declaration parts of class-like code structures (class, interface, etc.) should be in the following order: compile-time constants (for objects), class properties, late-init class properties, init-blocks, constructors, public methods, internal methods, protected methods, private methods, and companion object. Blank lines should separate their declaration.注:
const val ) in companion objects should be alphabetically arranged.The declaration part of a class or interface should be in the following order:
Exception: All variants of a private val logger should be placed at the beginning of the class ( private val log , LOG , logger , etc.).
Kotlin allows several top-level declaration types: classes, objects, interfaces, properties and functions. When declaring more than one class or zero classes (eg only functions), as per rule 2.2.1, you should document the whole file in the header KDoc. When declaring top-level structures, keep the following order:
const val , val , lateinit var , var )Note : Extension functions shouldn't have receivers declared in the same file according to rule 6.2.3
Valid example:
package com.saveourtool.diktat.example
const val CONSTANT = 42
val topLevelProperty = " String constant "
internal typealias ExamplesHandler = ( IExample ) -> Unit
interface IExample
class Example : IExample
private class Internal
fun Other. asExample (): Example { /* ... */ }
private fun Other. asInternal (): Internal { /* ... */ }
fun doStuff () { /* ... */ } Note : kotlin scripts (.kts) allow arbitrary code to be placed on the top level. When writing kotlin scripts, you should first declare all properties, classes and functions. Only then you should execute functions on top level. It is still recommended wrapping logic inside functions and avoid using top-level statements for function calls or wrapping blocks of code in top-level scope functions like run .
例:
/* class declarations */
/* function declarations */
run {
// call functions here
}This section describes the general rules of using braces in your code.
Braces should always be used in if , else , for , do , and while statements, even if the program body is empty or contains only one statement. In special Kotlin when statements, you do not need to use braces for single-line statements.
Valid example:
when (node.elementType) {
FILE -> {
checkTopLevelDoc(node)
checkSomething()
}
CLASS -> checkClassElements(node)
} Exception: The only exception is ternary operator in Kotlin (a single line if () <> else <> )
Invalid example:
val value = if (string.isEmpty()) // WRONG!
0
else
1Valid example :
val value = if (string.isEmpty()) 0 else 1 // Okay if (condition) {
println ( " test " )
} else {
println ( 0 )
}For non-empty blocks and block structures, the opening brace is placed at the end of the line. Follow the K&R style (1TBS or OTBS) for non-empty code blocks with braces:
else , finally , and while (from do-while statement), or catch keywords. These keywords should not be split from the closing brace by a newline character.Exception cases :
-> ) (see point 5 of Rule 3.6.2). arg.map { value ->
foo(value)
}else / catch / finally / while (from do-while statement) keywords closing brace should stay on the same line: do {
if ( true ) {
x ++
} else {
x --
}
} while (x > 0 )Valid example:
return arg.map { value ->
while (condition()) {
method()
}
value
}
return MyClass () {
@Override
fun method () {
if (condition()) {
try {
something()
} catch (e : ProblemException ) {
recover()
}
} else if (otherCondition()) {
somethingElse()
} else {
lastThing()
}
}
} Only spaces are permitted for indentation, and each indentation should equal four spaces (tabs are not permitted). If you prefer using tabs, simply configure them to change to spaces in your IDE automatically. These code blocks should be indented if they are placed on the new line, and the following conditions are met:
+ / - / && / = /etc.)someObject
.map()
.filter()arg.map { value ->
foo(value)
}Exceptions :
Argument lists:
a) Eight spaces are used to indent argument lists (both in declarations and at call sites).
b) Arguments in argument lists can be aligned if they are on different lines.
Eight spaces are used if there is a newline after any binary operator.
Eight spaces are used for functional-like styles when the newline is placed before the dot.
Supertype lists:
a) Four spaces are used if the colon before the supertype list is on a new line.
b) Four spaces are used before each supertype, and eight spaces are used if the colon is on a new line.
Note: there should be an indentation after all statements such as if , for , etc. However, according to this code style, such statements require braces.
if (condition)
foo()Exceptions :
8 spaces . A parameter that was moved to a new line can be on the same level as the previous argument: fun visit (
node : ASTNode ,
autoCorrect : Boolean ,
params : KtLint . ExperimentalParams ,
emit : (offset: Int , errorMessage: String , canBeAutoCorrected: Boolean ) -> Unit
) {
}+ / - / * can be indented with 8 spaces : val abcdef = " my splitted " +
" string "lintMethod(
"""
|val q = 1
|
""" .trimMargin()
)4 spaces if they are on different lines or with 8 spaces if the leading colon is also on a separate line class A :
B ()
class A
:
B () Avoid empty blocks, and ensure braces start on a new line. An empty code block can be closed immediately on the same line and the next line. However, a newline is recommended between opening and closing braces {} (see the examples below.)
Generally, empty code blocks are prohibited; using them is considered a bad practice (especially for catch block). They are appropriate for overridden functions, when the base class's functionality is not needed in the class-inheritor, for lambdas used as a function and for empty function in implementation of functional interface.
override fun foo () {
}Valid examples (note once again that generally empty blocks are prohibited):
fun doNothing () {}
fun doNothingElse () {
}
fun foo ( bar : () -> Unit = {})Invalid examples:
try {
doSomething()
} catch (e : Some ) {}Use the following valid code instead:
try {
doSomething()
} catch (e : Some ) {
}Line length should be less than 120 symbols. Otherwise, it should be split.
If complex property initializing is too long, It should be split into priorities:
Invalid example:
val complexProperty = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4Valid example:
val complexProperty = 1 + 2 +
3 + 4Invalid example:
val complexProperty = ( 1 + 2 + 3 > 0 ) && ( 23 * 4 > 10 * 6 )Valid example:
val complexProperty = ( 1 + 2 + 3 > 0 ) &&
( 23 * 4 > 10 * 6 ) If long line should be split in Elvis Operator (?:), it`s done like this
Invalid example:
val value = first ? : secondValid example:
val value = first
? : second If long line in Dot Qualified Expression or Safe Access Expression , it`s done like this:
Invalid example:
val value = This . Is . Very . Long . Dot . Qualified . ExpressionValid example:
val value = This . Is . Very . Long
. Dot . Qualified . ExpressionInvalid example:
val value = This . Is ?. Very ?. Long? . Safe ?. Access ?. ExpressionValid example:
val value = This . Is ?. Very ?. Long
?. Safe ?. Access ?. Expression if value arguments list is too long, it also should be split:
Invalid example:
val result1 = ManyParamInFunction (firstArgument, secondArgument, thirdArgument, fourthArgument, fifthArguments)Valid example:
val result1 = ManyParamInFunction (firstArgument,
secondArgument, thirdArgument, fourthArgument,
fifthArguments) If annotation is too long, it also should be split:
Invalid example:
@Query(value = " select * from table where age = 10 " , nativeQuery = true )
fun foo () {}Valid example:
@Query(
value = " select * from table where age = 10 " ,
nativeQuery = true )
fun foo () {} Long one line function should be split:
Invalid example:
fun foo () = goo().write( " TooLong " )Valid example:
fun foo () =
goo().write( " TooLong " ) Long binary expression should be split into priorities:
Invalid example:
if (( x > 100 ) || y < 100 && ! isFoo()) {}Valid example:
if (( x > 100 ) ||
y < 100 && ! isFoo()) {} String template also can be split in white space in string text
Invalid example:
val nameString = " This is very long string template "Valid example:
val nameString = " This is very long " +
" string template " Long Lambda argument should be split:
Invalid example:
val variable = a?.filter { it.elementType == true } ? : nullValid example:
val variable = a?.filter {
it.elementType == true
} ? : null Long one line When Entry should be split:
Invalid example:
when (elem) {
true -> long.argument.whenEntry
}Valid example:
when (elem) {
true -> {
long.argument.whenEntry
}
} If the examples above do not fit, but the line needs to be split and this in property , this is fixed like thisЖ
Invalid example:
val element = veryLongNameFunction(firstParam)Valid example:
val element =
varyLongNameFunction(firstParam) Eol comment also can be split, but it depends on comment location. If this comment is on the same line with code it should be on line before:
Invalid example:
fun foo () {
val name = " Nick " // this comment is too long
}Valid example:
fun foo () {
// this comment is too long
val name = " Nick "
}But if this comment is on new line - it should be split to several lines:
Invalid example:
// This comment is too long. It should be on two lines.
fun foo () {}Valid example:
// This comment is too long.
// It should be on two lines.
fun foo () {} The international code style prohibits non-Latin ( non-ASCII ) symbols. (See Identifiers) However, if you still intend on using them, follow the following convention:
One wide character occupies the width of two narrow characters. The "wide" and "narrow" parts of a character are defined by its east Asian width Unicode attribute. Typically, narrow characters are also called "half-width" characters. All characters in the ASCII character set include letters (such as a, A ), numbers (such as 0, 3 ), and punctuation spaces (such as , , { ), all of which are narrow characters. Wide characters are also called "full-width" characters. Chinese characters (such as中, 文), Chinese punctuation ( , , ; ), full-width letters and numbers (such as A、3 ) are "full-width" characters. Each one of these characters represents two narrow characters.
Any line that exceeds this limit ( 120 narrow symbols ) should be wrapped, as described in the Newline section.
Exceptions:
package and import statements.This section contains the rules and recommendations on using line breaks.
Each line can have a maximum of one code statement. This recommendation prohibits the use of code with ; because it decreases code visibility.
Invalid example:
val a = " " ; val b = " "Valid example:
val a = " "
val b = " " ; ) after each statement separated by a newline character. There should be no redundant semicolon at the end of the lines. When a newline character is needed to split the line, it should be placed after such operators as && / || / + /etc. and all infix functions (for example, xor ). However, the newline character should be placed before operators such as . , ?. 、 ?: 、 そして:: 。
Note that all comparison operators, such as == , > , < , should not be split.
Invalid example :
if (node !=
null && test != null ) {}Valid example :
if (node != null &&
test != null ) {
} Note: You need to follow the functional style, meaning each function call in a chain with . should start at a new line if the chain of functions contains more than one call:
val value = otherValue !!
.map { x -> x }
.filter {
val a = true
true
}
.size Note: The parser prohibits the separation of the !! operator from the value it is checking.
Exception : If a functional chain is used inside the branches of a ternary operator, it does not need to be split with newlines.
Valid example :
if (condition) list.map { foo(it) }.filter { bar(it) } else list.drop( 1 )Note: If dot qualified expression is inside condition or passed as an argument - it should be replaced with new variable.
Invalid example :
if (node.treeParent.treeParent?.treeParent.findChildByType( IDENTIFIER ) != null ) {}Valid example :
val grandIdentifier = node
.treeParent
.treeParent
?.treeParent
.findChildByType( IDENTIFIER )
if (grandIdentifier != null ) {}Second valid example :
val grandIdentifier = node.treeParent
.treeParent
?.treeParent
.findChildByType( IDENTIFIER )
if (grandIdentifier != null ) {}= ).( . A brace should be placed immediately after the name without any spaces in declarations or at call sites., ).it ), the newline character should be placed after the opening brace ( { ). The following examples illustrate this rule:Invalid example:
value.map { name -> foo()
bar()
}Valid example:
value.map { name ->
foo()
bar()
}
val someValue = { node : String -> node }の代わりに:
override fun toString (): String { return " hi " }使用:
override fun toString () = " hi "Valid example:
class Foo ( val a : String ,
b : String ,
val c : String ) {
}
fun foo (
a : String ,
b : String ,
c : String
) {
}If and only if the first parameter is on the same line as an opening parenthesis, all parameters can be horizontally aligned by the first parameter. Otherwise, there should be a line break after an opening parenthesis.
Kotlin 1.4 introduced a trailing comma as an optional feature, so it is generally recommended to place all parameters on a separate line and append trailing comma. It makes the resolving of merge conflicts easier.
Valid example:
fun foo (
a : String ,
b : String ,
) {
}same should be done for function calls/constructor arguments/etc
Kotlin supports trailing commas in the following cases:
Enumerations Value arguments Class properties and parameters Function value parameters Parameters with optional type (including setters) Indexing suffix Lambda parameters when entry Collection literals (in annotations) Type arguments Type parameters Destructuring declarations
Valid example:
class MyFavouriteVeryLongClassHolder :
MyLongHolder < MyFavouriteVeryLongClass >(),
SomeOtherInterface ,
AndAnotherOne { }Reduce unnecessary blank lines and maintain a compact code size. By reducing unnecessary blank lines, you can display more code on one screen, which improves code readability.
init blocks, and objects (see 3.1.2).Valid example:
fun baz () {
doSomething() // No need to add blank lines at the beginning and end of the code block
// ...
}This section describes general rules and recommendations for using spaces in the code.
Follow the recommendations below for using space to separate keywords:
Note: These recommendations are for cases where symbols are located on the same line. However, in some cases, a line break could be used instead of a space.
Separate keywords (such as if , when , for ) from the opening parenthesis with single whitespace. The only exception is the constructor keyword, which should not be separated from the opening parenthesis.
Separate keywords like else or try from the opening brace ( { ) with single whitespace. If else is used in a ternary-style statement without braces, there should be a single space between else and the statement after: if (condition) foo() else bar()
Use a single whitespace before all opening braces ( { ). The only exception is the passing of a lambda as a parameter inside parentheses:
private fun foo ( a : ( Int ) -> Int , b : Int ) {}
foo({x : Int -> x}, 5 ) // no space before '{'where keyword: where T : Type(str: String) -> str.length()Exceptions:
:: ) are written without spaces:Object::toString. ) that stays on the same line with an object name:object.toString()?.そして!! that stay on the same line with an object name:object?.toString().. for creating ranges:1..100 Use spaces after ( , ), ( : ), and ( ; ), except when the symbol is at the end of the line. However, note that this code style prohibits the use of ( ; ) in the middle of a line (see 3.3.2). There should be no whitespaces at the end of a line. The only scenario where there should be no space after a colon is when the colon is used in the annotation to specify a use-site target (for example, @param:JsonProperty ). There should be no spaces before , , : and ; 。
Exceptions for spaces and colons:
: is used to separate a type and a supertype, including an anonymous object (after object keyword)Valid example:
abstract class Foo < out T : Any > : IFoo { }
class FooImpl : Foo () {
constructor (x : String ) : this (x) { /* ... */ }
val x = object : IFoo { /* ... */ }
} There should be only one space between the identifier and its type: list: List<String> If the type is nullable, there should be no space before ? 。
When using [] operator ( get/set ) there should be no spaces between identifier and [ : someList[0] .
There should be no space between a method or constructor name (both at declaration and at call site) and a parenthesis: foo() {} . Note that this sub-rule is related only to spaces; the rules for whitespaces are described in see 3.6.2. This rule does not prohibit, for example, the following code:
fun foo
(
a : String
) Never put a space after ( , [ , < (when used as a bracket in templates) or before ) , ] , > (when used as a bracket in templates).
There should be no spaces between a prefix/postfix operator (like !! or ++ ) and its operand.
Horizontal alignment refers to aligning code blocks by adding space to the code. Horizontal alignment should not be used because:
Recommendation: Alignment only looks suitable for enum class , where it can be used in table format to improve code readability:
enum class Warnings ( private val id : Int , private val canBeAutoCorrected : Boolean , private val warn : String ) : Rule {
PACKAGE_NAME_MISSING ( 1 , true , " no package name declared in a file " ),
PACKAGE_NAME_INCORRECT_CASE ( 2 , true , " package name should be completely in a lower case " ),
PACKAGE_NAME_INCORRECT_PREFIX ( 3 , false , " package name should start from the company's domain " )
;
}Valid example:
private val nr : Int // no alignment, but looks fine
private var color : Color // no alignmentInvalid example :
private val nr : Int // aligned comment with extra spaces
private val color : Color // alignment for a comment and alignment for identifier nameEnum values are separated by a comma and line break, with ';' placed on the new line.
; on the new line: enum class Warnings {
A ,
B ,
C ,
;
}This will help to resolve conflicts and reduce the number of conflicts during merging pull requests. Also, use trailing comma.
enum class Suit { CLUBS , HEARTS , SPADES , DIAMONDS } val isCelsius = true
val isFahrenheit = falseuse enum class:
enum class TemperatureScale { CELSIUS , FAHRENHEIT }-1, 0, and 1 ; use enums instead. enum class ComparisonResult {
ORDERED_ASCENDING ,
ORDERED_SAME ,
ORDERED_DESCENDING ,
;
}This section describes rules for the declaration of variables.
Each property or variable must be declared on a separate line.
Invalid example :
val n1 : Int ; val n2 : Int Declare local variables close to the point where they are first used to minimize their scope. This will also increase the readability of the code. Local variables are usually initialized during their declaration or immediately after. The member fields of the class should be declared collectively (see Rule 3.1.2 for details on the class structure).
The when statement must have an 'else' branch unless the condition variable is enumerated or a sealed type. Each when statement should contain an else statement group, even if it does not contain any code.
Exception: If 'when' statement of the enum or sealed type contains all enum values, there is no need to have an "else" branch. The compiler can issue a warning when it is missing.
Each annotation applied to a class, method or constructor should be placed on its own line. Consider the following examples:
Valid example :
@MustBeDocumented
@CustomAnnotation
fun getNameIfPresent () { /* ... */ }Valid example :
@CustomAnnotation class Foo {}Valid example :
@MustBeDocumented @CustomAnnotation val loader : DataLoaderBlock comments should be placed at the same indentation level as the surrounding code. See examples below.
Valid example :
class SomeClass {
/*
* This is
* okay
*/
fun foo () {}
} Note : Use /*...*/ block comments to enable automatic formatting by IDEs.
This section contains recommendations regarding modifiers and constant values.
If a declaration has multiple modifiers, always follow the proper sequence. Valid sequence:
public / internal / protected / private
expect / actual
final / open / abstract / sealed / const
external
override
lateinit
tailrec
crossinline
vararg
suspend
inner
out
enum / annotation
companion
inline / noinline
reified
infix
operator
dataAn underscore character should separate long numerical values. Note: Using underscores simplifies reading and helps to find errors in numeric constants.
val oneMillion = 1_000_000
val creditCardNumber = 1234_5678_9012_3456L
val socialSecurityNumber = 999_99_9999L
val hexBytes = 0xFF_EC_DE_5E
val bytes = 0b11010010_01101001_10010100_10010010 Prefer defining constants with clear names describing what the magic number means. Valid example :
class Person () {
fun isAdult ( age : Int ): Boolean = age >= majority
companion object {
private const val majority = 18
}
}Invalid example :
class Person () {
fun isAdult ( age : Int ): Boolean = age >= 18
}This section describes the general rules of using strings.
String concatenation is prohibited if the string can fit on one line. Use raw strings and string templates instead. Kotlin has significantly improved the use of Strings: String templates, Raw strings. Therefore, compared to using explicit concatenation, code looks much better when proper Kotlin strings are used for short lines, and you do not need to split them with newline characters.
Invalid example :
val myStr = " Super string "
val value = myStr + " concatenated "Valid example :
val myStr = " Super string "
val value = " $myStr concatenated " Redundant curly braces in string templates
If there is only one variable in a string template, there is no need to use such a template. Use this variable directly. Invalid example :
val someString = " ${myArgument} ${myArgument.foo()} "Valid example :
val someString = " $myArgument ${myArgument.foo()} "Redundant string template
In case a string template contains only one variable - there is no need to use the string template. Use this variable directly.
Invalid example :
val someString = " $myArgument "Valid example :
val someString = myArgumentThis section describes the general rules related to the сonditional statements.
The nested if-statements, when possible, should be collapsed into a single one by concatenating their conditions with the infix operator &&.
This improves the readability by reducing the number of the nested language constructs.
Invalid example :
if (cond1) {
if (cond2) {
doSomething()
}
}Valid example :
if (cond1 && cond2) {
doSomething()
}Invalid example :
if (cond1) {
if (cond2 || cond3) {
doSomething()
}
}Valid example :
if (cond1 && (cond2 || cond3)) {
doSomething()
}Too complex conditions should be simplified according to boolean algebra rules, if it is possible. The following rules are considered when simplifying an expression:
foo() || false -> foo() )!(!a) -> a )a && b && a -> a && b )a || (a && b) -> a )a && (a || b) -> a )!(a || b) -> !a && !b )Valid example
if (condition1 && condition2) {
foo()
}Invalid example
if (condition1 && condition2 && condition1) {
foo()
}This section is dedicated to the rules and recommendations for using variables and types in your code.
The rules of using variables are explained in the below topics.
Floating-point numbers provide a good approximation over a wide range of values, but they cannot produce accurate results in some cases. Binary floating-point numbers are unsuitable for precise calculations because it is impossible to represent 0.1 or any other negative power of 10 in a binary representation with a finite length.
The following code example seems to be obvious:
val myValue = 2.0 - 1.1
println (myValue) However, it will print the following value: 0.8999999999999999
Therefore, for precise calculations (for example, in finance or exact sciences), using such types as Int , Long , BigDecimal are recommended. The BigDecimal type should serve as a good choice.
Invalid example : Float values containing more than six or seven decimal numbers will be rounded.
val eFloat = 2.7182818284f // Float, will be rounded to 2.7182817Valid example : (when precise calculations are needed):
val income = BigDecimal ( " 2.0 " )
val expense = BigDecimal ( " 1.1 " )
println (income.subtract(expense)) // you will obtain 0.9 here Numeric float type values should not be directly compared with the equality operator (==) or other methods, such as compareTo() and equals() . Since floating-point numbers involve precision problems in computer representation, it is better to use BigDecimal as recommended in Rule 4.1.1 to make accurate computations and comparisons. The following code describes these problems.
Invalid example :
val f1 = 1.0f - 0.9f
val f2 = 0.9f - 0.8f
if (f1 == f2) {
println ( " Expected to enter here " )
} else {
println ( " But this block will be reached " )
}
val flt1 = f1;
val flt2 = f2;
if (flt1.equals(flt2)) {
println ( " Expected to enter here " )
} else {
println ( " But this block will be reached " )
}Valid example :
val foo = 1.03f
val bar = 0.42f
if (abs(foo - bar) > 1e - 6f ) {
println ( " Ok " )
} else {
println ( " Not " )
} Variables with the val modifier are immutable (read-only). Using val variables instead of var variables increases code robustness and readability. This is because var variables can be reassigned several times in the business logic. However, in some scenarios with loops or accumulators, only var s are permitted.
This section provides recommendations for using types.
The Kotlin compiler has introduced Smart Casts that help reduce the size of code.
Invalid example :
if (x is String ) {
print ((x as String ).length) // x was already automatically cast to String - no need to use 'as' keyword here
}Valid example :
if (x is String ) {
print (x.length) // x was already automatically cast to String - no need to use 'as' keyword here
} Also, Kotlin 1.3 introduced Contracts that provide enhanced logic for smart-cast. Contracts are used and are very stable in stdlib , for example:
fun bar ( x : String? ) {
if ( ! x.isNullOrEmpty()) {
println ( " length of ' $x ' is ${x.length} " ) // smartcasted to not-null
}
}Smart cast and contracts are a better choice because they reduce boilerplate code and features forced type conversion.
Invalid example :
fun String?. isNotNull (): Boolean = this != null
fun foo ( s : String? ) {
if (s.isNotNull()) s !! .length // No smartcast here and !! operator is used
}Valid example :
fun foo ( s : String? ) {
if (s.isNotNull()) s.length // We have used a method with contract from stdlib that helped compiler to execute smart cast
} Type aliases provide alternative names for existing types. If the type name is too long, you can replace it with a shorter name, which helps to shorten long generic types. For example, code looks much more readable if you introduce a typealias instead of a long chain of nested generic types. We recommend using a typealias if the type contains more than two nested generic types and is longer than 25 chars .
Invalid example :
val b : MutableMap < String , MutableList < String >>Valid example :
typealias FileTable = MutableMap < String , MutableList < String >>
val b : FileTableYou can also provide additional aliases for function (lambda-like) types:
typealias MyHandler = ( Int , String , Any ) -> Unit
typealias Predicate < T > = ( T ) -> BooleanKotlin is declared as a null-safe programming language. However, to achieve compatibility with Java, it still supports nullable types.
To avoid NullPointerException and help the compiler prevent Null Pointer Exceptions, avoid using nullable types (with ? symbol).
Invalid example :
val a : Int? = 0Valid example :
val a : Int = 0 Nevertheless, when using Java libraries extensively, you have to use nullable types and enrich the code with !!そして? symbols. Avoid using nullable types for Kotlin stdlib (declared in official documentation). Try to use initializers for empty collections. For example, if you want to initialize a list instead of null , use emptyList() .
Invalid example :
val a : List < Int > ? = nullValid example :
val a : List < Int > = emptyList()Like in Java, classes in Kotlin may have type parameters. To create an instance of such a class, we typically need to provide type arguments:
val myVariable : Map < Int , String > = emptyMap< Int , String >()However, the compiler can inherit type parameters from the r-value (value assigned to a variable). Therefore, it will not force users to declare the type explicitly. These declarations are not recommended because programmers would need to find the return value and understand the variable type by looking at the method.
Invalid example :
val myVariable = emptyMap< Int , String >()Valid example :
val myVariable : Map < Int , String > = emptyMap() Try to avoid explicit null checks (explicit comparison with null ) Kotlin is declared as Null-safe language. However, Kotlin architects wanted Kotlin to be fully compatible with Java; that's why the null keyword was also introduced in Kotlin.
There are several code-structures that can be used in Kotlin to avoid null-checks. For example: ?: , .let {} , .also {} , etc
Invalid example:
// example 1
var myVar : Int? = null
if (myVar == null ) {
println ( " null " )
return
}
// example 2
if (myVar != null ) {
println ( " not null " )
return
}
// example 3
val anotherVal = if (myVar != null ) {
println ( " not null " )
1
} else {
2
}
// example 4
if (myVar == null ) {
println ( " null " )
} else {
println ( " not null " )
}Valid example:
// example 1
var myVar : Int? = null
myVar ? : run {
println ( " null " )
return
}
// example 2
myVar?. let {
println ( " not null " )
return
}
// example 3
val anotherVal = myVar?. also {
println ( " not null " )
1
} ? : 2
// example 4
myVar?. let {
println ( " not null " )
} ? : run { println ( " null " ) }Exceptions:
In the case of complex expressions, such as multiple else-if structures or long conditional statements, there is common sense to use explicit comparison with null .
Valid examples:
if (myVar != null ) {
println ( " not null " )
} else if (anotherCondition) {
println ( " Other condition " )
} if (myVar == null || otherValue == 5 && isValid) {} Please also note, that instead of using require(a != null) with a not null check - you should use a special Kotlin function called requireNotNull(a) .
This section describes the rules of using functions in your code.
Developers can write clean code by gaining knowledge of how to build design patterns and avoid code smells. You should utilize this approach, along with functional style, when writing Kotlin code. The concepts behind functional style are as follows: Functions are the smallest unit of combinable and reusable code. They should have clean logic, high cohesion , and low coupling to organize the code effectively. The code in functions should be simple and not conceal the author's original intentions.
Additionally, it should have a clean abstraction, and control statements should be used straightforwardly. The side effects (code that does not affect a function's return value but affects global/object instance variables) should not be used for state changes of an object. The only exceptions to this are state machines.
Kotlin is designed to support and encourage functional programming, featuring the corresponding built-in mechanisms. Also, it supports standard collections and sequences feature methods that enable functional programming (for example, apply , with , let , and run ), Kotlin Higher-Order functions, function types, lambdas, and default function arguments. As previously discussed, Kotlin supports and encourages the use of immutable types, which in turn motivates programmers to write pure functions that avoid side effects and have a corresponding output for specific input. The pipeline data flow for the pure function comprises a functional paradigm. It is easy to implement concurrent programming when you have chains of function calls, where each step features the following characteristics:
There can be only one side effect in this data stream, which can be placed only at the end of the execution queue.
The function should be displayable on one screen and only implement one certain logic. If a function is too long, it often means complex and could be split or simplified. Functions should consist of 30 lines (non-empty and non-comment) in total.
Exception: Some functions that implement complex algorithms may exceed 30 lines due to aggregation and comprehensiveness. Linter warnings for such functions can be suppressed .
Even if a long function works well, new problems or bugs may appear due to the function's complex logic once it is modified by someone else. Therefore, it is recommended to split such functions into several separate and shorter functions that are easier to manage. This approach will enable other programmers to read and modify the code properly.
The nesting depth of a function's code block is the depth of mutual inclusion between the code control blocks in the function (for example: if, for, while, and when). Each nesting level will increase the amount of effort needed to read the code because you need to remember the current "stack" (for example, entering conditional statements and loops). Exception: The nesting levels of the lambda expressions, local classes, and anonymous classes in functions are calculated based on the innermost function. The nesting levels of enclosing methods are not accumulated. Functional decomposition should be implemented to avoid confusion for the developer who reads the code. This will help the reader switch between contexts.
Nested functions create a more complex function context, thereby confusing readers. With nested functions, the visibility context may not be evident to the code reader.
Invalid example :
fun foo () {
fun nested (): String {
return " String from nested function "
}
println ( " Nested Output: ${nested()} " )
}Don't use negated function calls if it can be replaced with negated version of this function
Invalid example :
fun foo () {
val list = listOf ( 1 , 2 , 3 )
if ( ! list.isEmpty()) {
// Some cool logic
}
}Valid example :
fun foo () {
val list = listOf ( 1 , 2 , 3 )
if (list.isNotEmpty()) {
// Some cool logic
}
}The rules for using function arguments are described in the below topics.
With such notation, it is easier to use curly brackets, leading to better code readability.
Valid example :
// declaration
fun myFoo ( someArg : Int , myLambda : () -> Unit ) {
// ...
}
// usage
myFoo( 1 ) {
println ( " hey " )
}A long argument list is a code smell that leads to less reliable code. It is recommended to reduce the number of parameters. Having more than five parameters leads to difficulties in maintenance and conflicts merging. If parameter groups appear in different functions multiple times, these parameters are closely related and can be encapsulated into a single Data Class. It is recommended that you use Data Classes and Maps to unify these function arguments.
In Java, default values for function arguments are prohibited. That is why the function should be overloaded when you need to create a function with fewer arguments. In Kotlin, you can use default arguments instead.
Invalid example :
private fun foo ( arg : Int ) {
// ...
}
private fun foo () {
// ...
}Valid example :
private fun foo ( arg : Int = 0) {
// ...
} Try to avoid using runBlocking in asynchronous code
Invalid example :
GlobalScope .async {
runBlocking {
count ++
}
}The lambda without parameters shouldn't be too long. If a lambda is too long, it can confuse the user. Lambda without parameters should consist of 10 lines (non-empty and non-comment) in total.
Expressions with unnecessary, custom labels generally increase complexity and worsen the maintainability of the code.
Invalid example :
run lab@ {
list.forEach {
return @lab
}
}Valid example :
list.forEachIndexed { index, i ->
return @forEachIndexed
}
lab@ for (i : Int in q) {
for (j : Int in q) {
println (i)
break @lab
}
}This section describes the rules of denoting classes in your code.
When a class has a single constructor, it should be defined as a primary constructor in the declaration of the class. If the class contains only one explicit constructor, it should be converted to a primary constructor.
Invalid example :
class Test {
var a : Int
constructor (a : Int ) {
this .a = a
}
}Valid example :
class Test ( var a : Int ) {
// ...
}
// in case of any annotations or modifiers used on a constructor:
class Test private constructor( var a : Int ) {
// ...
} Some people say that the data class is a code smell. However, if you need to use it (which makes your code more simple), you can utilize the Kotlin data class . The main purpose of this class is to hold data, but also data class will automatically generate several useful methods:
Therefore, instead of using normal classes:
class Test {
var a : Int = 0
get() = field
set(value : Int ) { field = value}
}
class Test {
var a : Int = 0
var b : Int = 0
constructor (a : Int , b : Int ) {
this .a = a
this .b = b
}
}
// or
class Test ( var a : Int = 0 , var b : Int = 0 )
// or
class Test () {
var a : Int = 0
var b : Int = 0
}prefer data classes:
data class Test1 ( var a : Int = 0 , var b : Int = 0 )Exception 1 : Note that data classes cannot be abstract, open, sealed, or inner; that is why these types of classes cannot be changed to a data class.
Exception 2 : No need to convert a class to a data class if this class extends some other class or implements an interface.
The primary constructor is a part of the class header; it is placed after the class name and type parameters (optional) but can be omitted if it is not used.
Invalid example :
// simple case that does not need a primary constructor
class Test () {
var a : Int = 0
var b : Int = 0
}
// empty primary constructor is not needed here
// it can be replaced with a primary contructor with one argument or removed
class Test () {
var a = " Property "
init {
println ( " some init " )
}
constructor (a : String ) : this () {
this .a = a
}
}Valid example :
// the good example here is a data class; this example also shows that you should get rid of braces for the primary constructor
class Test {
var a : Int = 0
var b : Int = 0
} Several init blocks are redundant and generally should not be used in your class. The primary constructor cannot contain any code. That is why Kotlin has introduced init blocks. These blocks store the code to be run during the class initialization. Kotlin allows writing multiple initialization blocks executed in the same order as they appear in the class body. Even when you follow (rule 3.2)[#r3.2], this makes your code less readable as the programmer needs to keep in mind all init blocks and trace the execution of the code. Therefore, you should try to use a single init block to reduce the code's complexity. If you need to do some logging or make some calculations before the class property assignment, you can use powerful functional programming. This will reduce the possibility of the error if your init blocks' order is accidentally changed and make the code logic more coupled. It is always enough to use one init block to implement your idea in Kotlin.
Invalid example :
class YourClass ( var name : String ) {
init {
println ( " First initializer block that prints ${name} " )
}
val property = " Property: ${name.length} " . also (::println)
init {
println ( " Second initializer block that prints ${name.length} " )
}
}Valid example :
class YourClass ( var name : String ) {
init {
println ( " First initializer block that prints ${name} " )
}
val property = " Property: ${name.length} " . also { prop ->
println (prop)
println ( " Second initializer block that prints ${name.length} " )
}
} The init block was not added to Kotlin to help you initialize your properties; it is needed for more complex tasks. Therefore if the init block contains only assignments of variables - move it directly to properties to be correctly initialized near the declaration. In some cases, this rule can be in clash with 6.1.1, but that should not stop you.
Invalid example :
class A ( baseUrl : String ) {
private val customUrl : String
init {
customUrl = " $baseUrl /myUrl "
}
}Valid example :
class A ( baseUrl : String ) {
private val customUrl = " $baseUrl /myUrl "
}The explicit supertype qualification should not be used if there is no clash between called methods. This rule is applicable to both interfaces and classes.
Invalid example :
open class Rectangle {
open fun draw () { /* ... */ }
}
class Square () : Rectangle() {
override fun draw () {
super < Rectangle >.draw() // no need in super<Rectangle> here
}
} Abstract classes are used to force a developer to implement some of its parts in their inheritors. When the abstract class has no abstract methods, it was set abstract incorrectly and can be converted to a regular class.
Invalid example :
abstract class NotAbstract {
fun foo () {}
fun test () {}
}Valid example :
abstract class NotAbstract {
abstract fun foo ()
fun test () {}
}
// OR
class NotAbstract {
fun foo () {}
fun test () {}
}Kotlin has a mechanism of backing properties. In some cases, implicit backing is not enough and it should be done explicitly:
private var _table : Map < String , Int > ? = null
val table : Map < String , Int >
get() {
if ( _table == null ) {
_table = HashMap () // Type parameters are inferred
}
return _table ? : throw AssertionError ( " Set to null by another thread " )
} In this case, the name of the backing property ( _table ) should be the same as the name of the real property ( table ) but should have an underscore ( _ ) prefix. It is one of the exceptions from the identifier names rule
Kotlin has a perfect mechanism of properties. Kotlin compiler automatically generates get and set methods for properties and can override them.
Invalid example:
class A {
var size : Int = 0
set(value) {
println ( " Side effect " )
field = value
}
// user of this class does not expect calling A.size receive size * 2
get() = field * 2
} From the callee code, these methods look like access to this property: A().isEmpty = true for setter and A().isEmpty for getter.
However, when get and set are overridden, it isn't very clear for a developer who uses this particular class. The developer expects to get the property value but receives some unknown value and some extra side-effect hidden by the custom getter/setter. Use extra functions instead to avoid confusion.
Valid example :
class A {
var size : Int = 0
fun initSize ( value : Int ) {
// some custom logic
}
// this will not confuse developer and he will get exactly what he expects
fun goodNameThatDescribesThisGetter () = this .size * 2
} Exception: Private setters are only exceptions that are not prohibited by this rule.
If you ignored recommendation 6.1.8, be careful with using the name of the property in your custom getter/setter as it can accidentally cause a recursive call and a StackOverflow Error . Use the field keyword instead.
Invalid example (very bad) :
var isEmpty : Boolean
set(value) {
println ( " Side effect " )
isEmpty = value
}
get() = isEmptyIn Java, trivial getters - are the getters that are just returning the field value. Trivial setters - are merely setting the field with a value without any transformation. However, in Kotlin, trivial getters/setters are generated by default. There is no need to use it explicitly for all types of data structures in Kotlin.
Invalid example :
class A {
var a : Int = 0
get() = field
set(value : Int ) { field = value }
//
}Valid example :
class A {
var a : Int = 0
get() = field
set(value : Int ) { field = value }
//
} In Java, before functional programming became popular, many classes from common libraries used the configuration paradigm. To use these classes, you had to create an object with the constructor with 0-2 arguments and set the fields needed to run the object. In Kotlin, to reduce the number of dummy code line and to group objects apply extension was added:
Invalid example :
class HttpClient ( var name : String ) {
var url : String = " "
var port : String = " "
var timeout = 0
fun doRequest () {}
}
fun main () {
val httpClient = HttpClient ( " myConnection " )
httpClient.url = " http://example.com "
httpClient.port = " 8080 "
httpClient.timeout = 100
httpCLient.doRequest()
}
Valid example :
class HttpClient ( var name : String ) {
var url : String = " "
var port : String = " "
var timeout = 0
fun doRequest () {}
}
fun main () {
val httpClient = HttpClient ( " myConnection " )
. apply {
url = " http://example.com "
port = " 8080 "
timeout = 100
}
httpClient.doRequest()
}If a class has only one immutable property, then it can be converted to the inline class.
Sometimes it is necessary for business logic to create a wrapper around some type. However, it introduces runtime overhead due to additional heap allocations. Moreover, if the wrapped type is primitive, the performance hit is terrible, because primitive types are usually heavily optimized by the runtime, while their wrappers don't get any special treatment.
Invalid example :
class Password {
val value : String
}Valid example :
inline class Password ( val value : String )This section describes the rules of using extension functions in your code.
Extension functions is a killer-feature in Kotlin. It gives you a chance to extend classes that were already implemented in external libraries and helps you to make classes less heavy. Extension functions are resolved statically.
It is recommended that for classes, the non-tightly coupled functions, which are rarely used in the class, should be implemented as extension functions where possible. They should be implemented in the same class/file where they are used. This is a non-deterministic rule, so the code cannot be checked or fixed automatically by a static analyzer.
You should avoid declaring extension functions with the same name and signature if their receivers are base and inheritor classes (possible_bug), as extension functions are resolved statically. There could be a situation when a developer implements two extension functions: one is for the base class and another for the inheritor. This can lead to an issue when an incorrect method is used.
Invalid example :
open class A
class B : A ()
// two extension functions with the same signature
fun A. foo () = " A "
fun B. foo () = " B "
fun printClassName ( s : A ) { println (s.foo()) }
// this call will run foo() method from the base class A, but
// programmer can expect to run foo() from the class inheritor B
fun main () { printClassName( B ()) }You should not use extension functions for the class in the same file, where it is defined.
Invalid example :
class SomeClass {
}
fun SomeClass. deleteAllSpaces () {
}You should not use property length with operation - 1, you can change this to lastIndex
Invalid example :
val A = " name "
val B = A .length - 1
val C = A [ A .length - 1 ]Valid example :
val A = " name "
val B = A .lastIndex
val C = A [ A .lastIndex] An Interface in Kotlin can contain declarations of abstract methods, as well as method implementations. What makes them different from abstract classes is that interfaces cannot store state. They can have properties, but these need to be abstract or to provide accessor implementations.
Kotlin's interfaces can define attributes and functions. In Kotlin and Java, the interface is the main presentation means of application programming interface (API) design and should take precedence over the use of (abstract) classes.
This section describes the rules of using objects in code.
Avoid using utility classes/objects; use extensions instead. As described in 6.2 Extension functions, using extension functions is a powerful method. This enables you to avoid unnecessary complexity and class/object wrapping and use top-level functions instead.
Invalid example :
object StringUtil {
fun stringInfo ( myString : String ): Int {
return myString.count{ " something " .contains(it) }
}
}
StringUtil .stringInfo( " myStr " )Valid example :
fun String. stringInfo (): Int {
return this .count{ " something " .contains(it) }
}
" myStr " .stringInfo()Kotlin's objects are extremely useful when you need to implement some interface from an external library that does not have any state. There is no need to use classes for such structures.
Valid example :
interface I {
fun foo()
}
object O: I {
override fun foo() {}
}
This section describes general rules for .kts files
It is still recommended wrapping logic inside functions and avoid using top-level statements for function calls or wrapping blocks of code in top-level scope functions like run .
Valid example :
run {
// some code
}
fun foo() {
}
