Large Class should not count added methods from validations / associations in Rails
Reported by David Balatero | April 7th, 2009 @ 09:51 PM
Given an ActiveRecord model with a number of validations and associations added, and no extra methods, the method count can balloon to larger than the max count really fast.
I believe this is because validates*of-type methods in Rails add methods to the class itself, so they don't get seen as separate modules / inherited methods.
Would there be a way to whitelist some of these generated methods?

There's no way to whitelist individual methods so they don't contribute to the class size. There's also no way to increase the size threshold on a per-class basis. But you can use a .reek file to whitelist the class against the LargeClass smell; see the wiki page at http://wiki.github.com/kevinruth... for hints.
