The checks PipeChainStart and ABC-Size allow a parameter excluded_functions.
This does not seem to work.
I have this function credo does not like:
def hello do
Kernel.+(1, 1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
|> Kernel.+(1)
end
credo complains:
┃ [F] → Function is too complex (ABC size is 31, max is 30).
┃ lib/credo_check.ex:3:7 #(CredoCheck.hello)
┃ [F] → Pipe chain should start with a raw value.
┃ lib/credo_check.ex:5 #(CredoCheck.hello)
with this config:
{Credo.Check.Refactor.PipeChainStart, [excluded_functions: ["hello"]]},
{Credo.Check.Refactor.ABCSize, [excluded_functions: ["hello"]]},
I also tried
:hello"CredoCheck.hello""hello/0"~r/hello/

Looks like Pipe has similar functionality, for similar reasons:

Based on the tests for
PipeChainStart,excluded_functionsis a list of functions that are allowed to start a chain, not functions that are allowed to have a chain in them:https://github.com/rrrene/credo/blob/61a91b0abf3b085f60a41703d2fbcf361b5c1481/test/credo/check/refactor/pipe_chain_start_test.exs#L219-L229
You likely want inline config comments on

This may be an unwelcome tangent, but credo would not complain if you wrote this code in the more idiomatic way

The example is contrived. I don’t understand how people can’t see this. It’s meant to be silly..
Sometimes a function is only complex if you can’t read. Which is perfectly sane for a linter to catch. But the OP code isn’t complex.
