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"

Duplicated Code

Duplicated code can lead to software that is hard to understand and difficult to change. The Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle states:

Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.

When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).

Tuning

This issue has a mass of 91.

We set useful threshold defaults for the languages we support but you may want to adjust these settings based on your project guidelines.

The threshold configuration represents the minimum mass a code block must have to be analyzed for duplication. The lower the threshold, the more fine-grained the comparison.

If the engine is too easily reporting duplication, try raising the threshold. If you suspect that the engine isn't catching enough duplication, try lowering the threshold. The best setting tends to differ from language to language.

See codeclimate-duplication's documentation for more information about tuning the mass threshold in your .codeclimate.yml.

Rule: comment-format

Enforces formatting rules for single-line comments.

Rationale

Helps maintain a consistent, readable style in your codebase.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

Four arguments may be optionally provided:

• "check-space" requires that all single-line comments must begin with a space, as in // comment
  • note that for comments starting with multiple slashes, e.g. ///, leading slashes are ignored
  • TypeScript reference comments are ignored completely
• "check-lowercase" requires that the first non-whitespace character of a comment must be lowercase, if applicable.
• "check-uppercase" requires that the first non-whitespace character of a comment must be uppercase, if applicable.
• "allow-trailing-lowercase" allows that only the first comment of a series of comments needs to be uppercase.
  • requires "check-uppercase"
  • comments must start at the same position

Exceptions to "check-lowercase" or "check-uppercase" can be managed with object that may be passed as last argument.

One of two options can be provided in this object:

• "ignore-words" - array of strings - words that will be ignored at the beginning of the comment.
• "ignore-pattern" - string - RegExp pattern that will be ignored at the beginning of the comment.

Rule: no-var-keyword

Disallows usage of the var keyword.

Use let or const instead.

Rationale

Declaring variables using var has several edge case behaviors that make var unsuitable for modern code. Variables declared by var have their parent function block as their scope, ignoring other control flow statements. vars have declaration "hoisting" (similar to functions) and can appear to be used before declaration.

Variables declared by const and let instead have as their scope the block in which they are defined, and are not allowed to used before declaration or be re-declared with another const or let.

Rule: no-shadowed-variable

Disallows shadowing variable declarations.

Rationale

When a variable in a local scope and a variable in the containing scope have the same name, shadowing occurs. Shadowing makes it impossible to access the variable in the containing scope and obscures to what value an identifier actually refers. Compare the following snippets:

const a = 'no shadow';
function print() {
    console.log(a);
}
print(); // logs 'no shadow'.

const a = 'no shadow';
function print() {
    const a = 'shadow'; // TSLint will complain here.
    console.log(a);
}
print(); // logs 'shadow'.

ESLint has an equivalent rule. For more background information, refer to this MDN closure doc.

Config

You can optionally pass an object to disable checking for certain kinds of declarations. Possible keys are "class", "enum", "function", "import", "interface", "namespace", "typeAlias" and "typeParameter". You can also pass "underscore" to ignore variable names that begin with _. Just set the value to false for the check you want to disable. All checks default to true, i.e. are enabled by default. Note that you cannot disable variables and parameters.

The option "temporalDeadZone" defaults to true which shows errors when shadowing block scoped declarations in their temporal dead zone. When set to false parameters, classes, enums and variables declared with let or const are not considered shadowed if the shadowing occurs within their temporal dead zone.

The following example shows how the "temporalDeadZone" option changes the linting result:

function fn(value) {
    if (value) {

Rule: no-var-keyword

Disallows usage of the var keyword.

Use let or const instead.

Rationale

Declaring variables using var has several edge case behaviors that make var unsuitable for modern code. Variables declared by var have their parent function block as their scope, ignoring other control flow statements. vars have declaration "hoisting" (similar to functions) and can appear to be used before declaration.

Variables declared by const and let instead have as their scope the block in which they are defined, and are not allowed to used before declaration or be re-declared with another const or let.

Rule: only-arrow-functions

Disallows traditional (non-arrow) function expressions.

Note that non-arrow functions are allowed if 'this' appears somewhere in its body (as such functions cannot be converted to arrow functions).

Rationale

Traditional functions don't bind lexical scope, which can lead to unexpected behavior when accessing 'this'.

Config

Two arguments may be optionally provided:

• "allow-declarations" allows standalone function declarations.
• "allow-named-functions" allows the expression function foo() {} but not function() {}.

Rule: no-this-assignment

Disallows unnecessary references to this.

Rationale

Assigning a variable to this instead of properly using arrow lambdas may be a symptom of pre-ES6 practices or not managing scope well.

Instead of storing a reference to this and using it inside a function () {:

const self = this;

setTimeout(function () {
    self.doWork();
});

Use () => arrow lambdas, as they preserve this scope for you:

setTimeout(() => {
    this.doWork();
});

Config

Two options may be provided on an object:

• allow-destructuring allows using destructuring to access members of this (e.g. { foo, bar } = this;).
• allowed-names may be specified as a list of regular expressions to match allowed variable names.

Examples

"no-this-assignment": true

"no-this-assignment": true,[object Object]

Rule: comment-format

Enforces formatting rules for single-line comments.

Rationale

Helps maintain a consistent, readable style in your codebase.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

Four arguments may be optionally provided:

• "check-space" requires that all single-line comments must begin with a space, as in // comment
  • note that for comments starting with multiple slashes, e.g. ///, leading slashes are ignored
  • TypeScript reference comments are ignored completely
• "check-lowercase" requires that the first non-whitespace character of a comment must be lowercase, if applicable.
• "check-uppercase" requires that the first non-whitespace character of a comment must be uppercase, if applicable.
• "allow-trailing-lowercase" allows that only the first comment of a series of comments needs to be uppercase.
  • requires "check-uppercase"
  • comments must start at the same position

Exceptions to "check-lowercase" or "check-uppercase" can be managed with object that may be passed as last argument.

One of two options can be provided in this object:

• "ignore-words" - array of strings - words that will be ignored at the beginning of the comment.
• "ignore-pattern" - string - RegExp pattern that will be ignored at the beginning of the comment.

Rule: no-var-keyword

Disallows usage of the var keyword.

Use let or const instead.

Rationale

Declaring variables using var has several edge case behaviors that make var unsuitable for modern code. Variables declared by var have their parent function block as their scope, ignoring other control flow statements. vars have declaration "hoisting" (similar to functions) and can appear to be used before declaration.

Variables declared by const and let instead have as their scope the block in which they are defined, and are not allowed to used before declaration or be re-declared with another const or let.

Rule: only-arrow-functions

Disallows traditional (non-arrow) function expressions.

Note that non-arrow functions are allowed if 'this' appears somewhere in its body (as such functions cannot be converted to arrow functions).

Rationale

Traditional functions don't bind lexical scope, which can lead to unexpected behavior when accessing 'this'.

Rule: prefer-const

Requires that variable declarations use const instead of let and var if possible.

If a variable is only assigned to once when it is declared, it should be declared using 'const'

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

An optional object containing the property "destructuring" with two possible values:

• "any" (default) - If any variable in destructuring can be const, this rule warns for those variables.
• "all" - Only warns if all variables in destructuring can be const.

Examples

"prefer-const": true

"prefer-const": true,[object Object]

Schema

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "destructuring": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "all",
        "any"
      ]
    }
  }
}

For more information see this page.

Rule: no-this-assignment

Disallows unnecessary references to this.

Rationale

Assigning a variable to this instead of properly using arrow lambdas may be a symptom of pre-ES6 practices or not managing scope well.

Instead of storing a reference to this and using it inside a function () {:

const self = this;

setTimeout(function () {
    self.doWork();
});

Use () => arrow lambdas, as they preserve this scope for you:

setTimeout(() => {
    this.doWork();
});

Config

Two options may be provided on an object:

• allow-destructuring allows using destructuring to access members of this (e.g. { foo, bar } = this;).
• allowed-names may be specified as a list of regular expressions to match allowed variable names.

Examples

"no-this-assignment": true

"no-this-assignment": true,[object Object]

Schema

{
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "properties": {
    "allow-destructuring": {
      "type": "boolean"

    "allowed-names": {
      "listType": "string",

Rule: quotemark

Enforces quote character for string literals.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

Five arguments may be optionally provided:

• "single" enforces single quotes.
• "double" enforces double quotes.
• "backtick" enforces backticks.
• "jsx-single" enforces single quotes for JSX attributes.
• "jsx-double" enforces double quotes for JSX attributes.
• "avoid-template" forbids single-line untagged template strings that do not contain string interpolations. Note that backticks may still be used if "avoid-escape" is enabled and both single and double quotes are present in the string (the latter option takes precedence).
• "avoid-escape" allows you to use the "other" quotemark in cases where escaping would normally be required. For example, [true, "double", "avoid-escape"] would not report a failure on the string literal 'Hello "World"'.

Examples

"quotemark": true,single,avoid-escape,avoid-template

Rule: comment-format

Enforces formatting rules for single-line comments.

Rationale

Helps maintain a consistent, readable style in your codebase.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

Four arguments may be optionally provided:

• "check-space" requires that all single-line comments must begin with a space, as in // comment
  • note that for comments starting with multiple slashes, e.g. ///, leading slashes are ignored
  • TypeScript reference comments are ignored completely
• "check-lowercase" requires that the first non-whitespace character of a comment must be lowercase, if applicable.
• "check-uppercase" requires that the first non-whitespace character of a comment must be uppercase, if applicable.
• "allow-trailing-lowercase" allows that only the first comment of a series of comments needs to be uppercase.
  • requires "check-uppercase"
  • comments must start at the same position

Exceptions to "check-lowercase" or "check-uppercase" can be managed with object that may be passed as last argument.

One of two options can be provided in this object:

• "ignore-words" - array of strings - words that will be ignored at the beginning of the comment.
• "ignore-pattern" - string - RegExp pattern that will be ignored at the beginning of the comment.

Examples

"comment-format": true,check-space,check-uppercase,allow-trailing-lowercase

Rule: no-var-keyword

Disallows usage of the var keyword.

Use let or const instead.

Rationale

Declaring variables using var has several edge case behaviors that make var unsuitable for modern code. Variables declared by var have their parent function block as their scope, ignoring other control flow statements. vars have declaration "hoisting" (similar to functions) and can appear to be used before declaration.

Variables declared by const and let instead have as their scope the block in which they are defined, and are not allowed to used before declaration or be re-declared with another const or let.

Rule: object-literal-shorthand

Enforces/disallows use of ES6 object literal shorthand.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

"always" assumed to be default option, thus with no options provided the rule enforces object literal methods and properties shorthands. With "never" option provided, any shorthand object literal syntax causes an error.

The rule can be configured in a more granular way. With {"property": "never"} provided (which is equivalent to {"property": "never", "method": "always"}), the rule only flags property shorthand assignments, and respectively with {"method": "never"} (equivalent to {"property": "always", "method": "never"}), the rule fails only on method shorthands.

Rule: quotemark

Enforces quote character for string literals.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

Five arguments may be optionally provided:

• "single" enforces single quotes.
• "double" enforces double quotes.
• "backtick" enforces backticks.
• "jsx-single" enforces single quotes for JSX attributes.
• "jsx-double" enforces double quotes for JSX attributes.
• "avoid-template" forbids single-line untagged template strings that do not contain string interpolations. Note that backticks may still be used if "avoid-escape" is enabled and both single and double quotes are present in the string (the latter option takes precedence).
• "avoid-escape" allows you to use the "other" quotemark in cases where escaping would normally be required. For example, [true, "double", "avoid-escape"] would not report a failure on the string literal 'Hello "World"'.

Rule: no-var-keyword

Disallows usage of the var keyword.

Use let or const instead.

Rationale

Declaring variables using var has several edge case behaviors that make var unsuitable for modern code. Variables declared by var have their parent function block as their scope, ignoring other control flow statements. vars have declaration "hoisting" (similar to functions) and can appear to be used before declaration.

Variables declared by const and let instead have as their scope the block in which they are defined, and are not allowed to used before declaration or be re-declared with another const or let.

Rule: only-arrow-functions

Disallows traditional (non-arrow) function expressions.

Note that non-arrow functions are allowed if 'this' appears somewhere in its body (as such functions cannot be converted to arrow functions).

Rationale

Traditional functions don't bind lexical scope, which can lead to unexpected behavior when accessing 'this'.

Config

Two arguments may be optionally provided:

• "allow-declarations" allows standalone function declarations.
• "allow-named-functions" allows the expression function foo() {} but not function() {}.

If a variable is only assigned to once when it is declared, it should be declared using 'const'

Notes

Config

An optional object containing the property "destructuring" with two possible values:

Rule: unnecessary-bind

Prevents unnecessary and/or misleading scope bindings on functions.
