Trouble setting up rubocop with Sublime

Using Sublime Text 3, RVM and want to set up robocop?

Make sure you have installed rubocop in your default ruby version.

gem install rubocop

Open the command palette, press ctrl+shift+p (Win, Linux) or cmd+shift+p (OS X). Start by typing Package Controll: Install Package.

Now search for the rubocop package. Just select the package and hit enter.

Once installed you can see the package options in the tool bar

Open any ruby file and run ‘Rubocop Check Single File’

Troubleshoot

Sometimes after all the installation, you may see /bin/sh: 1: /home/al/.rvm/bin/rvm-auto-ruby: not found, sublime just cannot find your ruby path.

Lets find out the path first, go to console and run

al@al$ which rvm-auto-ruby
/usr/share/rvm/bin/rvm-auto-ruby

Open Preferences > Package Settings > Rubocop > Settings - User and add

{
  // The path to RVM's rvm-auto-ruby binary
  "rvm_auto_ruby_path":  "/usr/share/rvm/bin/rvm-auto-ruby"
}

Replace the path with the output of the which rvm-auto-ruby command.
