arithmetic-side-effects-allowed

Suppress checking of the passed type names in all types of operations.

If a specific operation is desired, consider using arithmetic_side_effects_allowed_binary or arithmetic_side_effects_allowed_unary instead.

Example

arithmetic-side-effects-allowed = ["SomeType", "AnotherType"]

Noteworthy

A type, say SomeType, listed in this configuration has the same behavior of ["SomeType" , "*"], ["*", "SomeType"] in arithmetic_side_effects_allowed_binary.

Default Value: {} (rustc_data_structures::fx::FxHashSet<String>)

arithmetic-side-effects-allowed-binary

Suppress checking of the passed type pair names in binary operations like addition or multiplication.

Supports the "*" wildcard to indicate that a certain type won't trigger the lint regardless of the involved counterpart. For example, ["SomeType", "*"] or ["*", "AnotherType"].

Pairs are asymmetric, which means that ["SomeType", "AnotherType"] is not the same as ["AnotherType", "SomeType"].

Example

arithmetic-side-effects-allowed-binary = [["SomeType" , "f32"], ["AnotherType", "*"]]

Default Value: [] (Vec<[String; 2]>)

arithmetic-side-effects-allowed-unary

Suppress checking of the passed type names in unary operations like "negation" (-).

Example

arithmetic-side-effects-allowed-unary = ["SomeType", "AnotherType"]

Default Value: {} (rustc_data_structures::fx::FxHashSet<String>)

avoid-breaking-exported-api

Suppress lints whenever the suggested change would cause breakage for other crates.

Default Value: true (bool)

msrv

The minimum rust version that the project supports

Default Value: None (Option<String>)

cognitive-complexity-threshold

The maximum cognitive complexity a function can have

Default Value: 25 (u64)

disallowed-names

The list of disallowed names to lint about. NB: bar is not here since it has legitimate uses. The value ".." can be used as part of the list to indicate, that the configured values should be appended to the default configuration of Clippy. By default, any configuration will replace the default value.

Default Value: ["foo", "baz", "quux"] (Vec<String>)

semicolon-inside-block-ignore-singleline

Whether to lint only if it's multiline.

Default Value: false (bool)

semicolon-outside-block-ignore-multiline

Whether to lint only if it's singleline.

Default Value: false (bool)

doc-valid-idents

The list of words this lint should not consider as identifiers needing ticks. The value ".." can be used as part of the list to indicate, that the configured values should be appended to the default configuration of Clippy. By default, any configuration will replace the default value. For example:

  • doc-valid-idents = ["ClipPy"] would replace the default list with ["ClipPy"].
  • doc-valid-idents = ["ClipPy", ".."] would append ClipPy to the default list.

Default list:

Default Value: ["KiB", "MiB", "GiB", "TiB", "PiB", "EiB", "DirectX", "ECMAScript", "GPLv2", "GPLv3", "GitHub", "GitLab", "IPv4", "IPv6", "ClojureScript", "CoffeeScript", "JavaScript", "PureScript", "TypeScript", "NaN", "NaNs", "OAuth", "GraphQL", "OCaml", "OpenGL", "OpenMP", "OpenSSH", "OpenSSL", "OpenStreetMap", "OpenDNS", "WebGL", "TensorFlow", "TrueType", "iOS", "macOS", "FreeBSD", "TeX", "LaTeX", "BibTeX", "BibLaTeX", "MinGW", "CamelCase"] (Vec<String>)

single-char-binding-names-threshold

The maximum number of single char bindings a scope may have

Default Value: 4 (u64)

too-large-for-stack

Default Value: 3 (u64)

literal-representation-threshold

The lower bound for linting decimal literals

Default Value: 16384 (u64)

trivial-copy-size-limit

The maximum size (in bytes) to consider a Copy type for passing by value instead of by reference.

Default Value: None (Option<u64>)

pass-by-value-size-limit

The minimum size (in bytes) to consider a type for passing by reference instead of by value.

Default Value: 256 (u64)

Default Value: 100 (u64)

array-size-threshold

The maximum allowed size for arrays on the stack

Default Value: 512000 (u64)

vec-box-size-threshold

The size of the boxed type in bytes, where boxing in a Vec is allowed

Default Value: 3 (u64)

max-fn-params-bools

The maximum number of bool parameters a function can have

Default Value: 3 (u64)

warn-on-all-wildcard-imports

Whether to allow certain wildcard imports (prelude, super in tests).

Default Value: false (bool)

disallowed-macros

The list of disallowed macros, written as fully qualified paths.

Default Value: [] (Vec<crate::utils::conf::DisallowedPath>)

disallowed-methods

The list of disallowed methods, written as fully qualified paths.

Default Value: [] (Vec<crate::utils::conf::DisallowedPath>)
