Limit Cyclomatic Complexity (complexity)
Cyclomatic complexity measures the number of linearly independent paths through a program's source code. This rule allows setting a cyclomatic complexity threshold.
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x; // 1st path
} else if (false) {
return x+1; // 2nd path
} else {
return 4; // 3rd path
}
}
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at reducing code complexity by capping the amount of cyclomatic complexity allowed in a program. As such, it will warn when the cyclomatic complexity crosses the configured threshold (default is 20
).
Examples of incorrect code for a maximum of 2:
/*eslint complexity: ["error", 2]*/
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x;
} else if (false) {
return x+1;
} else {
return 4; // 3rd path
}
}
Examples of correct code for a maximum of 2:
/*eslint complexity: ["error", 2]*/
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x;
} else {
return 4;
}
}
Options
Optionally, you may specify a max
object property:
"complexity": ["error", 2]
is equivalent to
"complexity": ["error", { "max": 2 }]
Deprecated: the object property maximum
is deprecated. Please use the property max
instead.
When Not To Use It
If you can't determine an appropriate complexity limit for your code, then it's best to disable this rule.

Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

disallow assignment operators in conditional statements (no-cond-assign)
In conditional statements, it is very easy to mistype a comparison operator (such as ==
) as an assignment operator (such as =
). For example:
// Check the user's job title
if (user.jobTitle = "manager") {
// user.jobTitle is now incorrect
}
There are valid reasons to use assignment operators in conditional statements. However, it can be difficult to tell whether a specific assignment was intentional.
Rule Details
This rule disallows ambiguous assignment operators in test conditions of if
, for
, while
, and do...while
statements.
Options
This rule has a string option:
-
"except-parens"
(default) allows assignments in test conditions only if they are enclosed in parentheses (for example, to allow reassigning a variable in the test of awhile
ordo...while
loop) -
"always"
disallows all assignments in test conditions
except-parens
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "except-parens"
option:
/*eslint no-cond-assign: "error"*/
// Unintentional assignment
var x;
if (x = 0) {
var b = 1;
}
// Practical example that is similar to an error
function setHeight(someNode) {
"use strict";
do {
someNode.height = "100px";
} while (someNode = someNode.parentNode);
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "except-parens"
option:
/*eslint no-cond-assign: "error"*/
// Assignment replaced by comparison
var x;
if (x === 0) {
var b = 1;
}
// Practical example that wraps the assignment in parentheses
function setHeight(someNode) {
"use strict";
do {
someNode.height = "100px";
} while ((someNode = someNode.parentNode));
}
// Practical example that wraps the assignment and tests for 'null'
function setHeight(someNode) {
"use strict";
do {
someNode.height = "100px";
} while ((someNode = someNode.parentNode) !== null);
}
always
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "always"
option:
/*eslint no-cond-assign: ["error", "always"]*/
// Unintentional assignment
var x;
if (x = 0) {
var b = 1;
}
// Practical example that is similar to an error
function setHeight(someNode) {
"use strict";
do {
someNode.height = "100px";
} while (someNode = someNode.parentNode);
}
// Practical example that wraps the assignment in parentheses
function setHeight(someNode) {
"use strict";

someNode.height = "100px";
} while ((someNode = someNode.parentNode));
}
// Practical example that wraps the assignment and tests for 'null'

"use strict";
do {
someNode.height = "100px";
} while ((someNode = someNode.parentNode) !== null);
}
