Simplify Anonymous Functions

Anonymous functions that simply call a named function (with the same arguments in the same order) should be avoided; they can be more concisely expressed using the function reference syntax.

Avoid

fun(Pattern) -> is_match_node(Pattern) end.

Prefer

fun is_match_node/1

Rationale

The fun F/A syntax is clearer and more concise when the anonymous function does nothing more than call another function. It reduces noise and makes the code easier to read and maintain by removing unnecessary bindings and boilerplate.

Options

• None.

Example configuration

{elvis_style, simplify_anonymous_functions, #{}}
