[Groovy] Class GrailsPublicControllerMethodRule

java.lang.Object
  org.codenarc.rule.AbstractAstVisitorRule
      groovy.org.codenarc.rule.grails.GrailsPublicControllerMethodRule

class GrailsPublicControllerMethodRule
extends AbstractAstVisitorRule

Rule that checks for public methods on Grails controller classes. Static methods are ignored.

Grails controller actions and interceptors are defined as properties on the controller class. Public methods on a controller class are unnecessary. They break encapsulation and can be confusing.

The ignoreMethodNames property optionally specifies one or more (comma-separated) method names that should be ignored (i.e., that should not cause a rule violation). The name(s) may optionally include wildcard characters ('*' or '?').

This rule sets the default value of applyToFilesMatching to only match files under the 'grails-app/controllers' folder. You can override this with a different regular expression value if appropriate.

This rule also sets the default value of applyToClassNames to only match class names ending in 'Controller'. You can override this with a different class name pattern (String) if appropriate.
