Hound uses RuboCop (v0.54.0 as default) to review Ruby code with the default RuboCop config.

To change the way RuboCop is configured simply add a .rubocop.yml  file to your project and configure it according to your team's preferences. Take a look at the RuboCop documentation for more information.

Add the following to your .hound.yml to disable RuboCop's Ruby style checking.

Hound supports multiple versions of RuboCop, so if you need a specific version or the latest then specify the version in your .hound.yml.
