Any possibility of helping out

Hi - I love the idea for this cop. I know it's a looong time ago since you last looked at it, but have you got any ideas for following?

I got it working with recent rubocop and rubies (specs passing) but it's generating not generating any cop messages on my codebase. Also there's an issue with ApplicationRecord, which I haven't been able to replicate as a spec.

Very happy to contribute PRs, but I'm a bit at sea about knowing where to begin (haven't worked on rubocop cops before).

Any ideas welcome, but I appreciate you may have moved on from this code base now.

@timdiggins hello! my goodness i should really check my repos 😆 i don't get a ton of traffic so often completely miss things. well, I know its been almost a year since you opened this issue but... is this still something you are after? happy to get back into this and/or assist you doing so! let me know -- i'll keep an eye out here :)

@carolineartz er - I guess me too. I have now cleared up my notifications in github, so maybe I will see your next response sooner.

If I comment out all the code in app/models/application_record.rb then
Basically I've tried running this on my repo and I get no rubocop fails in my models (despite not being in order AFAICT) but I get an error on application_record.rb

An error occurred while Rails/OrderModelMacros cop was inspecting /Volumes/data/workspaces/repo/app/models/application_record.rb:3:0.

I can remove that error if I get rid of all the code in application_record, ie.

# frozen_string_literal: true

class ApplicationRecord < ActiveRecord::Base
  self.abstract_class = true
end

but as soon as I have anything in the body other than the abstract class, e.g.

# frozen_string_literal: true

class ApplicationRecord < ActiveRecord::Base
  self.abstract_class = true

  def whatevs
    "blah"
  end
end

And in any case I never get any cop failures about my models...

(I have started doing tiny changes to make specs run, and could continue with that: dataceton/rubocop-rails-order_model_macros@master...fieldnotescommunities:rubocop-rails-order_model_macros:modernize)

No clue how to debug the lack of failures really. Have done almost no coding within rubocop cops. Any advice welcome.
