@redstoneminer27 eslint uses no config by default. also why do you have a global installation at all

Is it possible to use the ESLint API in the front-end?

Ilya Volodin

@ilyavolodin

Yes, it is, although it's not officially supported: https://eslint.org/demo

@mr21

Hi all :)
Is there a rule or a setting to prevent turning off rules with eslint-disable-line?
EDIT: I found it, it was "noInlineConfig": true, :)

Can you help me fix this error, it doens't want to commit/push because of it

Kevin Partington

@platinumazure

@markobenigar That doesn't look like an ESLint issue, so I'm not sure how to help

Has anyone ever wanted a smarter version of max-len?

For example, if I enable the option ignoreStrings, and I have a 200-character line with a single string consisting of a single character, the whole line gets ignored. But that seems unreasonable. There has to be a better way to do it.

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

i used to want that. but then i realized that max-len is a terrible rule, and rules should target patterns instead of spray-and-pray with a line length limit.

Jesse Jackson

@jsejcksn_gitlab

@ljharb Is there a better solution than prettier? When dealing with opinions, I prefer my own. prettier-eslint used to be supported, but is sadly not any more.

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

if you want to use prettier, only use it via eslint-plugin-prettier; iow, if you disagree with something prettier has nonconfigurable, you're SOL.

Jesse Jackson

@jsejcksn_gitlab

:confounded:

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

prettier is fast, and has better autoformatting than a small number of eslint rules, but otherwise i'm not a fan - eslint can do 99% of what prettier does, and imo theoretically better because of prettier's line-length-based algorithm

so what i'd prefer to do is pursue better autofixes in eslint rules so that prettier can become 100% unnecessary ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

prettier-eslint is a good hack, but as you said, it's not supported anymore anyways

Jesse Jackson

@jsejcksn_gitlab

I agree with all of this. Is there a project which exists to aid with formatting based on eslint rules? Like a shared config that duplicates the prettier functionality with as much coverage as possible?

There are just certain ESLint rules that can definitely auto-fix my code given some criteria, but I don't really know where to begin to write a plugin in order to make that happen. I'm happy with the way prettier-eslint did it.

Without the input preferences, ESLint can't auto-fix and I'm left with manually having to format my code.

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

@jsejcksn_gitlab i mean, https://npmjs.com/eslint-config-airbnb is the most used one by any metric

https://npmjs.com/eslint-config-airbnb-base if you don't use react

both are based off the same style guide, which reflects the most common conventions in the overall ecosystem.

or at least, almost entirely reflects :-)

Jesse Jackson

@jsejcksn_gitlab

@ljharb Thanks. Peripherally-related: Is there a "serial auto-fix" feature for ESLint? In VS Code, I often have to hit cmd-S multiple times to get to the end of the auto-fixes.

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

not that i know of. it just takes multiple passes sometimes.

Ilya Volodin

@ilyavolodin

@jsejcksn_gitlab I think that's vscode implementation issue. ESLint does multipass autofix (i.e. it will keep fixing issues until either none are left, or the number of errors doesn't decrease).

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

ah, gtk. best to file a vscode issue on that one (i've run into it too)

Ilya Volodin

@ilyavolodin

But that's done through CLI. And I think vscode plugin uses API, which doesn't do multipass by default

And in terms of prettier capabilities, ESLint doesn't accept autofixes that have potential of breaking user's code (or even potentially breaking code), but those are guidelines only for core rules, plugins can do whatever they want. So it would be entirely possible to create a plugin that will contain a set of rules that can be autofix to provide parity with prettier

The only one that might cause major trouble is line-wrapping

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

afaik prettier doesn't have that potential in any of its formatters

since the AST remains the same

Ilya Volodin

@ilyavolodin

Yeah, sorry, I don't know much about prettier, I find idea of somebody rewriting my code constantly unappealing

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

lol i mean, that's autofixing too

they're the same feature, it's just that eslint's autofixing is much slower since it's token-based, and prettier lacks a bunch of configurability

Ilya Volodin

@ilyavolodin

Yes, to a degree.

I mean I'm of the opinion that developers read code about 10x the amount of time they write it. So I never want to end up in a situation where I look at the code after I checked it in, and do not recognize it as mine at all. If I need to confirm to a specific style - that's fine, I'd rather learn how to write code in that style

I use autofix in ESLint when I'm migrating code. It's a one-time action that I'm expecting. I would never enable autofixing on save for any ESLint rule

Jordan Harband

@ljharb

yeah true, i'm similar

Jesse Jackson

@jsejcksn_gitlab

Here's an example of where I'd want an auto-fix for combinations of rules:

eslintrc

{
  "max-len": "warn",
  "object-curly-newline": ["error", {"multiline": true}],
  "object-property-newline": ["error", {"allowAllPropertiesOnSameLine": true}]
}

// 77 < 80: ok - no fix needed
const obj = {prop1: 'value', prop2: 'value', prop3: 'value', prop4: 'value'};

// 93 > 80: not ok - fix needed
const obj = {prop1: 'value', prop2: 'value', prop3: 'value', prop4: 'value', prop5: 'value'};

// auto-fixed
const obj = {
  prop1: 'value',
  prop2: 'value',
  prop3: 'value',
  prop4: 'value',
  prop5: 'value'
};

Perhaps in the future, there will be a way for rules to be aware of each other so that they can provide useful auto-fixes like this.

Hi
need some help with airbnb/base config !

Oops! Something went wrong! :(
ESLint: 6.1.0.

ESLint couldn't find the config "airbnb/base" to extend from. Please check that the name of the config is correct.

The config "airbnb/base" was referenced from the config file in "/home/user/projects/.eslintrc".

If you still have problems, please stop by https://gitter.im/eslint/eslint to chat with the team.

Henning Dieterichs

@hediet

Is there a way to enable autocomplete in .eslintrc files for rule configs?

it seems eslint already knows the schema for the rule, but this information is not forwarded to vscode or other editors.

Domvel

@Domvel

Howdy folks
Just a tiny question:

let hehe = 42;

I use ES3 settings for a very old JS-Engine. (No browser, no node). Whatever...
ESLINT says: Parsing error: Unexpected token hehe. The variable name is marked / underlined.
I expected something like: let is not supported in ES3. It's a ES6 feature. And mark the keyword let.
Or something like that. Why this behavior?

Ilya Volodin

@ilyavolodin

@Domvel This is just a guess, but in ES3, let was not a keyword as far as I remember, so when parser reads it, it assumes it's a variable name, so that's fine, and then it sees another one right after it, and crashes

PradheepGit

@PradheepGit

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 6.4.0.

ESLint couldn't find the plugin "eslint-plugin-myplugin".

(The package "eslint-plugin-myplugin" was not found when loaded as a Node module from the directory "/Users/pradheep-9009".)

It's likely that the plugin isn't installed correctly. Try reinstalling by running the following:

npm install eslint-plugin-myplugin@latest --save-dev

The plugin "eslint-plugin-myplugin" was referenced from the config file in ".eslintrc.js".
