enforce a maximum line length (max-len)

Very long lines of code in any language can be difficult to read. In order to aid in readability and maintainability many coders have developed a convention to limit lines of code to X number of characters (traditionally 80 characters).

var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }, "difficult": "to read" }; // very long

Rule Details

This rule enforces a maximum line length to increase code readability and maintainability.

Note: This rule calculates the length of a line via code points, not characters. That means if you use a double-byte character in your code, it will count as 2 code points instead of 1, and 2 will be used to calculate line length. This is a technical limitation of JavaScript that is made easier with ES2015, and we will look to update this when ES2015 is available in Node.js.

Options

This rule has a number or object option:

• "code" (default 80) enforces a maximum line length
• "tabWidth" (default 4) specifies the character width for tab characters
• "comments" enforces a maximum line length for comments; defaults to value of code
• "ignorePattern" ignores lines matching a regular expression; can only match a single line and need to be double escaped when written in YAML or JSON
• "ignoreComments": true ignores all trailing comments and comments on their own line
• "ignoreTrailingComments": true ignores only trailing comments
• "ignoreUrls": true ignores lines that contain a URL

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default { "code": 80 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80]*/

  "easier": "to read"
};

Quoting Style for Property Names (quote-props)

Object literal property names can be defined in two ways: using literals or using strings. For example, these two objects are equivalent:

var object1 = {
    property: true
};

var object2 = {
    "property": true
};

In many cases, it doesn't matter if you choose to use an identifier instead of a string or vice-versa. Even so, you might decide to enforce a consistent style in your code.

There are, however, some occasions when you must use quotes:

1. If you are using an ECMAScript 3 JavaScript engine (such as IE8) and you want to use a keyword (such as if) as a property name. This restriction was removed in ECMAScript 5.
2. You want to use a non-identifier character in your property name, such as having a property with a space like "one two".

Another example where quotes do matter is when using numeric literals as property keys:

var object = {
    1e2: 1,
    100: 2
};

This may look alright at first sight, but this code in fact throws a syntax error in ECMAScript 5 strict mode. This happens because 1e2 and 100 are coerced into strings before getting used as the property name. Both String(1e2) and String(100) happen to be equal to "100", which causes the "Duplicate data property in object literal not allowed in strict mode" error. Issues like that can be tricky to debug, so some prefer to require quotes around all property names.

Rule Details

This rule aims to enforce use of quotes in property names and as such will flag any properties that don't use quotes (default behavior).

Options

There are four behaviors for this rule: "always" (default), "as-needed", "consistent" and "consistent-as-needed". You can define these options in your configuration as:

{
    "quote-props": ["error", "as-needed"]
}

"always"

When configured with "always" as the first option (the default), quoting for all properties will be enforced. Some believe that ensuring property names in object literals are always wrapped in quotes is generally a good idea, since depending on the property name you may need to quote them anyway. Consider this example:

var object = {
    foo: "bar",
    baz: 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

Here, the properties foo and baz are not wrapped in quotes, but qux-lorem is, because it doesn’t work without the quotes. This is rather inconsistent. Instead, you may prefer to quote names of all properties:

var object = {
    "foo": "bar",
    "baz": 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

or, if you prefer single quotes:

var object = {
    'foo': 'bar',
    'baz': 42,
    'qux-lorem': true
};

When configured with "always" as the first option (the default), quoting for all properties will be enforced. The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "always"]*/

var object = {
    foo: "bar",
    baz: 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "always"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var object1 = {
    "foo": "bar",
    "baz": 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

var object2 = {
    'foo': 'bar',
    'baz': 42,
    'qux-lorem': true
};

var object3 = {
    foo() {
        return;
    }
};

"as-needed"

When configured with "as-needed" as the first option, quotes will be enforced when they are strictly required, and unnecessary quotes will cause warnings. The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "as-needed"]*/

var object = {
    "a": 0,
    "0": 0,
    "true": 0,
    "null": 0
};

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "as-needed"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var object1 = {
    "a-b": 0,
    "0x0": 0,
    "1e2": 0
};

var object2 = {
    foo: 'bar',
    baz: 42,
    true: 0,
    0: 0,
    'qux-lorem': true
};

var object3 = {
    foo() {
        return;
    }
};

When the "as-needed" mode is selected, an additional keywords option can be provided. This flag indicates whether language keywords should be quoted as properties. By default it is set to false.

{
    "quote-props": ["error", "as-needed", { "keywords": true }]
}

When keywords is set to true, the following patterns become problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "as-needed", { "keywords": true }]*/

var x = {
    while: 1,
    volatile: "foo"
};

Another modifier for this rule is the unnecessary option which defaults to true. Setting this to false will prevent the rule from complaining about unnecessarily quoted properties. This comes in handy when you only care about quoting keywords.

{
    "quote-props": ["error", "as-needed", { "keywords": true, "unnecessary": false }]
}

When unnecessary is set to false, the following patterns stop being problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "as-needed", { "keywords": true, "unnecessary": false }]*/

var x = {
    "while": 1,
    "foo": "bar"  // Would normally have caused a warning
};

A numbers flag, with default value false, can also be used as a modifier for the "as-needed" mode. When it is set to true, numeric literals should always be quoted.

{
    "quote-props": ["error", "as-needed", {"numbers": true}]
}

When numbers is set to true, the following patterns become problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "as-needed", { "numbers": true }]*/

var x = {
    100: 1
}

and the following patterns stop being problems:

var x = {
    "100": 1
}

"consistent"

When configured with "consistent", the patterns below are considered problems. Basically "consistent" means all or no properties are expected to be quoted, in other words quoting style can't be mixed within an object. Please note the latter situation (no quotation at all) isn't always possible as some property names require quoting.

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "consistent"]*/

var object1 = {
    foo: "bar",
    "baz": 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

var object2 = {
    'foo': 'bar',
    baz: 42
};

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "consistent"]*/

var object1 = {
    "foo": "bar",
    "baz": 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

var object2 = {
    'foo': 'bar',
    'baz': 42
};

var object3 = {
    foo: 'bar',
    baz: 42
};

"consistent-as-needed"

When configured with "consistent-as-needed", the behavior is similar to "consistent" with one difference. Namely, properties' quoting should be consistent (as in "consistent") but whenever all quotes are redundant a warning is raised. In other words if at least one property name has to be quoted (like qux-lorem) then all property names must be quoted, otherwise no properties can be quoted. The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "consistent-as-needed"]*/

var object1 = {
    foo: "bar",
    "baz": 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

var object2 = {
    'foo': 'bar',
    'baz': 42
};

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "consistent-as-needed"]*/

var object1 = {
    "foo": "bar",
    "baz": 42,
    "qux-lorem": true
};

var object2 = {
    foo: 'bar',
    baz: 42
};

When the "consistent-as-needed" mode is selected, an additional keywords option can be provided. This flag indicates whether language keywords can be used unquoted as properties. By default it is set to false.

{
    "quote-props": ["error", "consistent-as-needed", { "keywords": true }]
}

When keywords is set to true, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint quote-props: ["error", "consistent-as-needed", { "keywords": true }]*/

var x = {
    while: 1,
    volatile: "foo"
};

When Not To Use It

If you don't care if property names are consistently wrapped in quotes or not, and you don't target legacy ES3 environments, turn this rule off.

Disallow Undeclared Variables (no-undef)

This rule can help you locate potential ReferenceErrors resulting from misspellings of variable and parameter names, or accidental implicit globals (for example, from forgetting the var keyword in a for loop initializer).

Rule Details

Any reference to an undeclared variable causes a warning, unless the variable is explicitly mentioned in a /*global ...*/ comment.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

var a = someFunction();
b = 10;

Examples of correct code for this rule with global declaration:

/*global someFunction b:true*/
/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

var a = someFunction();
b = 10;

The b:true syntax in /*global */ indicates that assignment to b is correct.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with global declaration:

/*global b*/
/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

b = 10;

By default, variables declared in /*global */ are read-only, therefore assignment is incorrect.

Options

• typeof set to true will warn for variables used inside typeof check (Default false).

typeof

Examples of correct code for the default { "typeof": false } option:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

if (typeof UndefinedIdentifier === "undefined") {
    // do something ...
}

You can use this option if you want to prevent typeof check on a variable which has not been declared.

Examples of incorrect code for the { "typeof": true } option:

/*eslint no-undef: ["error", { "typeof": true }] */

if(typeof a === "string"){}

Examples of correct code for the { "typeof": true } option with global declaration:

/*global a*/
/*eslint no-undef: ["error", { "typeof": true }] */

if(typeof a === "string"){}

Environments

For convenience, ESLint provides shortcuts that pre-define global variables exposed by popular libraries and runtime environments. This rule supports these environments, as listed in Specifying Environments. A few examples are given below.

browser

Examples of correct code for this rule with browser environment:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/
/*eslint-env browser*/

Examples of correct code for this rule with node environment:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/
/*eslint-env node*/

var fs = require("fs");

};

When Not To Use It

If explicit declaration of global variables is not to your taste.

Compatibility

This rule provides compatibility with treatment of global variables in JSHint and JSLint.

Require Spaces Around Infix Operators (space-infix-ops)

(fixable) The --fix option on the [command line](../user-guide/command-line-interface#fix) automatically fixes problems reported by this rule.

While formatting preferences are very personal, a number of style guides require spaces around operators, such as:

var sum = 1 + 2;

The proponents of these extra spaces believe it make the code easier to read and can more easily highlight potential errors, such as:

var sum = i+++2;

While this is valid JavaScript syntax, it is hard to determine what the author intended.

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at ensuring there are spaces around infix operators.

Options

This rule accepts a single options argument with the following defaults:

"space-infix-ops": ["error", {"int32Hint": false}]

int32Hint

Set the int32Hint option to true (default is false) to allow write a|0 without space.

var foo = bar|0; // `foo` is forced to be signed 32 bit integer

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-infix-ops: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

a+b

a+ b

a +b

a?b:c

const a={b:1};

var {a=0}=bar;

function foo(a=0) { }

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-infix-ops: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

a ? b : c

const a = {b:1};

var {a = 0} = bar;

enforce a maximum line length (max-len)

Very long lines of code in any language can be difficult to read. In order to aid in readability and maintainability many coders have developed a convention to limit lines of code to X number of characters (traditionally 80 characters).

var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }, "difficult": "to read" }; // very long

Rule Details

This rule enforces a maximum line length to increase code readability and maintainability.

Note: This rule calculates the length of a line via code points, not characters. That means if you use a double-byte character in your code, it will count as 2 code points instead of 1, and 2 will be used to calculate line length. This is a technical limitation of JavaScript that is made easier with ES2015, and we will look to update this when ES2015 is available in Node.js.

Options

This rule has a number or object option:

• "code" (default 80) enforces a maximum line length
• "tabWidth" (default 4) specifies the character width for tab characters
• "comments" enforces a maximum line length for comments; defaults to value of code
• "ignorePattern" ignores lines matching a regular expression; can only match a single line and need to be double escaped when written in YAML or JSON
• "ignoreComments": true ignores all trailing comments and comments on their own line
• "ignoreTrailingComments": true ignores only trailing comments
• "ignoreUrls": true ignores lines that contain a URL

code

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default { "code": 80 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80]*/

Disallow or enforce spaces inside of parentheses (space-in-parens)

(fixable) The --fix option on the [command line](../user-guide/command-line-interface#fix) automatically fixes problems reported by this rule.

Some style guides require or disallow spaces inside of parentheses:

foo( 'bar' );
var x = ( 1 + 2 ) * 3;

foo('bar');
var x = (1 + 2) * 3;

Rule Details

This rule will enforce consistency of spacing directly inside of parentheses, by disallowing or requiring one or more spaces to the right of ( and to the left of ). In either case, () will still be allowed.

Options

There are two options for this rule:

• "always" enforces a space inside of parentheses
• "never" enforces zero spaces inside of parentheses (default)

Depending on your coding conventions, you can choose either option by specifying it in your configuration:

"space-in-parens": ["error", "always"]

"always"

When "always" is set, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always"]*/

foo( 'bar');
foo('bar' );
foo('bar');

var foo = (1 + 2) * 3;
(function () { return 'bar'; }());

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always"]*/

foo();

foo( 'bar' );

var foo = ( 1 + 2 ) * 3;
( function () { return 'bar'; }() );

"never"

When "never" is used, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never"]*/

foo( 'bar');
foo('bar' );
foo( 'bar' );

var foo = ( 1 + 2 ) * 3;
( function () { return 'bar'; }() );

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never"]*/

foo();

foo('bar');

var foo = (1 + 2) * 3;
(function () { return 'bar'; }());

Exceptions

An object literal may be used as a third array item to specify exceptions, with the key "exceptions" and an array as the value. These exceptions work in the context of the first option. That is, if "always" is set to enforce spacing, then any "exception" will disallow spacing. Conversely, if "never" is set to disallow spacing, then any "exception" will enforce spacing.

The following exceptions are available: ["{}", "[]", "()", "empty"].

For example, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["{}"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["{}"] }]*/

foo( {bar: 'baz'} );
foo( 1, {bar: 'baz'} );

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["{}"] }]*/

foo({bar: 'baz'});
foo( 1, {bar: 'baz'});

Or, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["{}"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["{}"] }]*/

foo({bar: 'baz'});
foo(1, {bar: 'baz'});

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["{}"] }]*/

foo( {bar: 'baz'} );
foo(1, {bar: 'baz'} );

Given "space-in-parens": ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["[]"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["[]"] }]*/

foo( [bar, baz] );
foo( [bar, baz], 1 );

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["[]"] }]*/

foo([bar, baz]);
foo([bar, baz], 1 );

Or, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["[]"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["[]"] }]*/

foo([bar, baz]);
foo([bar, baz], 1);

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["[]"] }]*/

foo( [bar, baz] );
foo( [bar, baz], 1);

Given "space-in-parens": ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["()"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["()"] }]*/

foo( ( 1 + 2 ) );
foo( ( 1 + 2 ), 1 );

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["()"] }]*/

foo(( 1 + 2 ));
foo(( 1 + 2 ), 1 );

Or, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["()"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["()"] }]*/

foo((1 + 2));
foo((1 + 2), 1);

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["()"] }]*/

foo( (1 + 2) );
foo( (1 + 2), 1);

The "empty" exception concerns empty parentheses, and works the same way as the other exceptions, inverting the first option.

For example, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["empty"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["empty"] }]*/

foo( );

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["empty"] }]*/

foo();

Or, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["empty"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["empty"] }]*/

foo();

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "never", { "exceptions": ["empty"] }]*/

foo( );

You can include multiple entries in the "exceptions" array. For example, given "space-in-parens": ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["{}", "[]"] }], the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["{}", "[]"] }]*/

bar( {bar:'baz'} );
baz( 1, [1,2] );
foo( {bar: 'baz'}, [1, 2] );

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint space-in-parens: ["error", "always", { "exceptions": ["{}", "[]"] }]*/

bar({bar:'baz'});
baz( 1, [1,2]);
foo({bar: 'baz'}, [1, 2]);

When Not To Use It

You can turn this rule off if you are not concerned with the consistency of spacing between parentheses.

Disallow Undeclared Variables (no-undef)

This rule can help you locate potential ReferenceErrors resulting from misspellings of variable and parameter names, or accidental implicit globals (for example, from forgetting the var keyword in a for loop initializer).

Rule Details

Any reference to an undeclared variable causes a warning, unless the variable is explicitly mentioned in a /*global ...*/ comment.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

var a = someFunction();
b = 10;

Examples of correct code for this rule with global declaration:

/*global someFunction b:true*/
/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

var a = someFunction();
b = 10;

The b:true syntax in /*global */ indicates that assignment to b is correct.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with global declaration:

/*global b*/
/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

b = 10;

By default, variables declared in /*global */ are read-only, therefore assignment is incorrect.

Options

• typeof set to true will warn for variables used inside typeof check (Default false).

typeof

Examples of correct code for the default { "typeof": false } option:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

if (typeof UndefinedIdentifier === "undefined") {
    // do something ...
}

You can use this option if you want to prevent typeof check on a variable which has not been declared.

Examples of incorrect code for the { "typeof": true } option:

/*eslint no-undef: ["error", { "typeof": true }] */

if(typeof a === "string"){}

Examples of correct code for the { "typeof": true } option with global declaration:

/*global a*/
/*eslint no-undef: ["error", { "typeof": true }] */

if(typeof a === "string"){}

Environments

For convenience, ESLint provides shortcuts that pre-define global variables exposed by popular libraries and runtime environments. This rule supports these environments, as listed in Specifying Environments. A few examples are given below.

browser

Examples of correct code for this rule with browser environment:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/
/*eslint-env browser*/

setTimeout(function() {
    alert("Hello");
});

node

Examples of correct code for this rule with node environment:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/
/*eslint-env node*/

var fs = require("fs");
module.exports = function() {
    console.log(fs);
};

When Not To Use It

If explicit declaration of global variables is not to your taste.

Compatibility

This rule provides compatibility with treatment of global variables in JSHint and JSLint.

enforce consistent indentation (indent)

(fixable) The --fix option on the [command line](../user-guide/command-line-interface#fix) automatically fixes problems reported by this rule.

There are several common guidelines which require specific indentation of nested blocks and statements, like:

function hello(indentSize, type) {
    if (indentSize === 4 && type !== 'tab') {
        console.log('Each next indentation will increase on 4 spaces');
    }
}

These are the most common scenarios recommended in different style guides:

• Two spaces, not longer and no tabs: Google, npm, Node.js, Idiomatic, Felix
• Tabs: jQuery
• Four spaces: Crockford

Rule Details

This rule enforces a consistent indentation style. The default style is 4 spaces.

Options

This rule has a mixed option:

For example, for 2-space indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", 2]
}

Or for tabbed indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", "tab"]
}

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
  b=c;
  function foo(d) {
    e=f;
  }

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
    b=c;
    function foo(d) {
        e=f;
    }
}

This rule has an object option:

• "SwitchCase" (default: 0) enforces indentation level for case clauses in switch statements
• "VariableDeclarator" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for var declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules for var, let and const declarations.

Level of indentation denotes the multiple of the indent specified. Example:

• Indent of 4 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 8 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to {"var": 2, "let": 2, "const": 3} will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces for var and let, 6 spaces for const statements.
• Indent of tab with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 2 tabs.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 0 will not indent case clauses with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 4 spaces with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of tabs with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 2 tabs with respect to switch statements.

Disallow Undeclared Variables (no-undef)

This rule can help you locate potential ReferenceErrors resulting from misspellings of variable and parameter names, or accidental implicit globals (for example, from forgetting the var keyword in a for loop initializer).

Rule Details

Any reference to an undeclared variable causes a warning, unless the variable is explicitly mentioned in a /*global ...*/ comment.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

var a = someFunction();
b = 10;

Examples of correct code for this rule with global declaration:

/*global someFunction b:true*/
/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

var a = someFunction();
b = 10;

The b:true syntax in /*global */ indicates that assignment to b is correct.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with global declaration:

/*global b*/
/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

b = 10;

By default, variables declared in /*global */ are read-only, therefore assignment is incorrect.

Options

• typeof set to true will warn for variables used inside typeof check (Default false).

typeof

Examples of correct code for the default { "typeof": false } option:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/

if (typeof UndefinedIdentifier === "undefined") {
    // do something ...
}

You can use this option if you want to prevent typeof check on a variable which has not been declared.

Examples of incorrect code for the { "typeof": true } option:

/*eslint no-undef: ["error", { "typeof": true }] */

if(typeof a === "string"){}

Examples of correct code for the { "typeof": true } option with global declaration:

/*global a*/
/*eslint no-undef: ["error", { "typeof": true }] */

if(typeof a === "string"){}

Environments

For convenience, ESLint provides shortcuts that pre-define global variables exposed by popular libraries and runtime environments. This rule supports these environments, as listed in Specifying Environments. A few examples are given below.

browser

Examples of correct code for this rule with browser environment:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/
/*eslint-env browser*/

setTimeout(function() {
    alert("Hello");
});

node

Examples of correct code for this rule with node environment:

/*eslint no-undef: "error"*/
/*eslint-env node*/

var fs = require("fs");
module.exports = function() {
    console.log(fs);
};

When Not To Use It

If explicit declaration of global variables is not to your taste.

Compatibility

This rule provides compatibility with treatment of global variables in JSHint and JSLint.

enforce a maximum line length (max-len)

Very long lines of code in any language can be difficult to read. In order to aid in readability and maintainability many coders have developed a convention to limit lines of code to X number of characters (traditionally 80 characters).

var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }, "difficult": "to read" }; // very long

Rule Details

This rule enforces a maximum line length to increase code readability and maintainability.

Note: This rule calculates the length of a line via code points, not characters. That means if you use a double-byte character in your code, it will count as 2 code points instead of 1, and 2 will be used to calculate line length. This is a technical limitation of JavaScript that is made easier with ES2015, and we will look to update this when ES2015 is available in Node.js.

Options

This rule has a number or object option:

• "code" (default 80) enforces a maximum line length
• "tabWidth" (default 4) specifies the character width for tab characters
• "comments" enforces a maximum line length for comments; defaults to value of code
• "ignorePattern" ignores lines matching a regular expression; can only match a single line and need to be double escaped when written in YAML or JSON
• "ignoreComments": true ignores all trailing comments and comments on their own line
• "ignoreTrailingComments": true ignores only trailing comments
• "ignoreUrls": true ignores lines that contain a URL

code

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default { "code": 80 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80]*/

var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }, "difficult": "to read" };

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default { "code": 80 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80]*/

var foo = {
  "bar": "This is a bar.",
  "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" },
  "easier": "to read"
};

tabWidth

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default { "tabWidth": 4 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80, 4]*/

\t  \t  var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" } };

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default { "tabWidth": 4 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80, 4]*/

\t  \t  var foo = {
\t  \t  \t  \t  "bar": "This is a bar.",
\t  \t  \t  \t  "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }
\t  \t  };

comments

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the { "comments": 65 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", { "comments": 65 }]*/

/**
 * This is a comment that violates the maximum line length we have specified
**/

ignoreComments

Examples of correct code for this rule with the { "ignoreComments": true } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", { "ignoreComments": true }]*/

/**
 * This is a really really really really really really really really really long comment
**/

ignoreTrailingComments

Examples of correct code for this rule with the { "ignoreTrailingComments": true } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", { "ignoreTrailingComments": true }]*/

var foo = 'bar'; // This is a really really really really really really really long comment

ignoreUrls

Examples of correct code for this rule with the { "ignoreUrls": true } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", { "ignoreUrls": true }]*/

var url = 'https://www.example.com/really/really/really/really/really/really/really/long';

ignorePattern

Examples of correct code for this rule with the { "ignorePattern": true } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", { "ignorePattern": "^\\s*var\\s.+=\\s*require\\s*\\(/" }]*/

enforce consistent indentation (indent)

(fixable) The --fix option on the [command line](../user-guide/command-line-interface#fix) automatically fixes problems reported by this rule.

There are several common guidelines which require specific indentation of nested blocks and statements, like:

function hello(indentSize, type) {
    if (indentSize === 4 && type !== 'tab') {
        console.log('Each next indentation will increase on 4 spaces');
    }
}

These are the most common scenarios recommended in different style guides:

• Two spaces, not longer and no tabs: Google, npm, Node.js, Idiomatic, Felix
• Tabs: jQuery
• Four spaces: Crockford

Rule Details

This rule enforces a consistent indentation style. The default style is 4 spaces.

Options

This rule has a mixed option:

For example, for 2-space indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", 2]
}

Or for tabbed indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", "tab"]
}

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
  b=c;
  function foo(d) {
    e=f;
  }
}

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
    b=c;
    function foo(d) {
        e=f;
    }
}

This rule has an object option:

• "SwitchCase" (default: 0) enforces indentation level for case clauses in switch statements
• "VariableDeclarator" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for var declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules for var, let and const declarations.

Level of indentation denotes the multiple of the indent specified. Example:

• Indent of 4 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 8 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to {"var": 2, "let": 2, "const": 3} will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces for var and let, 6 spaces for const statements.
• Indent of tab with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 2 tabs.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 0 will not indent case clauses with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 4 spaces with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of tabs with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 2 tabs with respect to switch statements.
