Enforce or Disallow Semicolons (semi)

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

JavaScript is unique amongst the C-like languages in that it doesn't require semicolons at the end of each statement. In many cases, the JavaScript engine can determine that a semicolon should be in a certain spot and will automatically add it. This feature is known as automatic semicolon insertion (ASI) and is considered one of the more controversial features of JavaScript. For example, the following lines are both valid:

var name = "ESLint"
var website = "eslint.org";

On the first line, the JavaScript engine will automatically insert a semicolon, so this is not considered a syntax error. The JavaScript engine still knows how to interpret the line and knows that the line end indicates the end of the statement.

In the debate over ASI, there are generally two schools of thought. The first is that we should treat ASI as if it didn't exist and always include semicolons manually. The rationale is that it's easier to always include semicolons than to try to remember when they are or are not required, and thus decreases the possibility of introducing an error.

However, the ASI mechanism can sometimes be tricky to people who are using semicolons. For example, consider this code:

return
{
    name: "ESLint"
};

This may look like a return statement that returns an object literal, however, the JavaScript engine will interpret this code as:

return;
{
    name: "ESLint";
}

Effectively, a semicolon is inserted after the return statement, causing the code below it (a labeled literal inside a block) to be unreachable. This rule and the [no-unreachable](no-unreachable.md) rule will protect your code from such cases.

On the other side of the argument are those who says that since semicolons are inserted automatically, they are optional and do not need to be inserted manually. However, the ASI mechanism can also be tricky to people who don't use semicolons. For example, consider this code:

var globalCounter = { }

(function () {
    var n = 0
    globalCounter.increment = function () {
        return ++n
    }
})()

In this example, a semicolon will not be inserted after the first line, causing a run-time error (because an empty object is called as if it's a function). The [no-unexpected-multiline](no-unexpected-multiline.md) rule can protect your code from such cases.

Although ASI allows for more freedom over your coding style, it can also make your code behave in an unexpected way, whether you use semicolons or not. Therefore, it is best to know when ASI takes place and when it does not, and have ESLint protect your code from these potentially unexpected cases. In short, as once described by Isaac Schlueter, a \n character always ends a statement (just like a semicolon) unless one of the following is true:

1. The statement has an unclosed paren, array literal, or object literal or ends in some other way that is not a valid way to end a statement. (For instance, ending with . or ,.)
2. The line is -- or ++ (in which case it will decrement/increment the next token.)
3. It is a for(), while(), do, if(), or else, and there is no {
4. The next line starts with [, (, +, *, /, -, ,, ., or some other binary operator that can only be found between two tokens in a single expression.

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at ensuring consistent use of semicolons. You can decide whether or not to require semicolons at the end of statements.

Options

The rule takes one or two options. The first one is a string, which could be "always" or "never". The default is "always". The second one is an object for more fine-grained configuration when the first option is "always".

You can set the option in configuration like this:

"always"

By using the default option, semicolons must be used any place where they are valid.

semi: ["error", "always"]

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint semi: "error"*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint semi: "error"*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

Fine-grained control

When setting the first option as "always", an additional option can be added to omit the last semicolon in a one-line block, that is, a block in which its braces (and therefore the content of the block) are in the same line:

semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}]

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}] */

if (foo) {
    bar()
}

if (foo) { bar(); }

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}] */

if (foo) { bar() }

if (foo) { bar(); baz() }

"never"

If you want to enforce that semicolons are never used, switch the configuration to:

semi: [2, "never"]

Then, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

And the following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

Even in "never" mode, semicolons are still allowed to disambiguate statements beginning with [, (, /, +, or -:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

;(function() {
    // ...
})()

When Not To Use It

If you do not want to enforce semicolon usage (or omission) in any particular way, then you can turn this rule off.

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

Require JSDoc comment (require-jsdoc)

JSDoc is a JavaScript API documentation generator. It uses specially-formatted comments inside of code to generate API documentation automatically. For example, this is what a JSDoc comment looks like for a function:

/**
 * Adds two numbers together.
 * @param {int} num1 The first number.
 * @param {int} num2 The second number.
 * @returns {int} The sum of the two numbers.
 */
function sum(num1, num2) {
    return num1 + num2;
}

Some style guides require JSDoc comments for all functions as a way of explaining function behavior.

Rule Details

This rule generates warnings for nodes that do not have JSDoc comments when they should. Supported nodes:

• FunctionDeclaration
• ClassDeclaration
• MethodDefinition

Options

This rule accepts a require object with its properties as

• FunctionDeclaration (default: true)
• ClassDeclaration (default: false)
• MethodDefinition (default: false)

Default option settings are

{
    "require-jsdoc": ["error", {
        "require": {
            "FunctionDeclaration": true,
            "MethodDefinition": false,
            "ClassDeclaration": false
        }
    }]
}

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint "require-jsdoc": ["error", {
    "require": {
        "FunctionDeclaration": true,
        "MethodDefinition": true,
        "ClassDeclaration": true
    }
}]*/

function foo() {
    return 10;
}

class Test{
    getDate(){}
}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint "require-jsdoc": ["error", {
    "require": {
        "FunctionDeclaration": true,
        "MethodDefinition": true,
        "ClassDeclaration": true
    }
}]*/

/**
* It returns 10
*/
function foo() {
    return 10;
}

/**
* It returns 10
*/
var foo = function() {
    return 10;
}

var array = [1,2,3];
array.filter(function(item) {
    return item > 2;
});

/**
* It returns 10
*/
class Test{
    /**
    * returns the date
    */
    getDate(){}
}

When Not To Use It

If you do not require JSDoc for your functions, then you can leave this rule off.

Sometimes in the course of editing files, you can end up with extra whitespace at the end of lines. These whitespace differences can be picked up by source control systems and flagged as diffs, causing frustration for developers. While this extra whitespace causes no functional issues, many code conventions require that trailing spaces be removed before checkin.

Rule Details

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint no-trailing-spaces: "error"*/

// spaces, tabs and unicode whitespaces

Options

There is one option for this rule, skipBlankLines. When set to true, the rule will not flag any lines that are made up purely of whitespace. In short, if a line is zero-length after being trimmed of whitespace, then the rule will not flag that line when skipBlankLines is enabled.

Enforce or Disallow Semicolons (semi)

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

JavaScript is unique amongst the C-like languages in that it doesn't require semicolons at the end of each statement. In many cases, the JavaScript engine can determine that a semicolon should be in a certain spot and will automatically add it. This feature is known as automatic semicolon insertion (ASI) and is considered one of the more controversial features of JavaScript. For example, the following lines are both valid:

var name = "ESLint"
var website = "eslint.org";

On the first line, the JavaScript engine will automatically insert a semicolon, so this is not considered a syntax error. The JavaScript engine still knows how to interpret the line and knows that the line end indicates the end of the statement.

In the debate over ASI, there are generally two schools of thought. The first is that we should treat ASI as if it didn't exist and always include semicolons manually. The rationale is that it's easier to always include semicolons than to try to remember when they are or are not required, and thus decreases the possibility of introducing an error.

However, the ASI mechanism can sometimes be tricky to people who are using semicolons. For example, consider this code:

return
{
    name: "ESLint"
};

This may look like a return statement that returns an object literal, however, the JavaScript engine will interpret this code as:

return;
{
    name: "ESLint";
}

Effectively, a semicolon is inserted after the return statement, causing the code below it (a labeled literal inside a block) to be unreachable. This rule and the [no-unreachable](no-unreachable.md) rule will protect your code from such cases.

On the other side of the argument are those who says that since semicolons are inserted automatically, they are optional and do not need to be inserted manually. However, the ASI mechanism can also be tricky to people who don't use semicolons. For example, consider this code:

var globalCounter = { }

(function () {
    var n = 0
    globalCounter.increment = function () {
        return ++n
    }
})()

In this example, a semicolon will not be inserted after the first line, causing a run-time error (because an empty object is called as if it's a function). The [no-unexpected-multiline](no-unexpected-multiline.md) rule can protect your code from such cases.

Although ASI allows for more freedom over your coding style, it can also make your code behave in an unexpected way, whether you use semicolons or not. Therefore, it is best to know when ASI takes place and when it does not, and have ESLint protect your code from these potentially unexpected cases. In short, as once described by Isaac Schlueter, a \n character always ends a statement (just like a semicolon) unless one of the following is true:

1. The statement has an unclosed paren, array literal, or object literal or ends in some other way that is not a valid way to end a statement. (For instance, ending with . or ,.)
2. The line is -- or ++ (in which case it will decrement/increment the next token.)
3. It is a for(), while(), do, if(), or else, and there is no {
4. The next line starts with [, (, +, *, /, -, ,, ., or some other binary operator that can only be found between two tokens in a single expression.

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at ensuring consistent use of semicolons. You can decide whether or not to require semicolons at the end of statements.

Options

The rule takes one or two options. The first one is a string, which could be "always" or "never". The default is "always". The second one is an object for more fine-grained configuration when the first option is "always".

You can set the option in configuration like this:

"always"

By using the default option, semicolons must be used any place where they are valid.

semi: ["error", "always"]

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint semi: "error"*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint semi: "error"*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

Fine-grained control

When setting the first option as "always", an additional option can be added to omit the last semicolon in a one-line block, that is, a block in which its braces (and therefore the content of the block) are in the same line:

semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}]

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}] */

if (foo) {
    bar()
}

if (foo) { bar(); }

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}] */

if (foo) { bar() }

if (foo) { bar(); baz() }

"never"

If you want to enforce that semicolons are never used, switch the configuration to:

semi: [2, "never"]

Then, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

And the following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

Even in "never" mode, semicolons are still allowed to disambiguate statements beginning with [, (, /, +, or -:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

;(function() {
    // ...
})()

When Not To Use It

If you do not want to enforce semicolon usage (or omission) in any particular way, then you can turn this rule off.

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

Disallow trailing spaces at the end of lines (no-trailing-spaces)

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

Sometimes in the course of editing files, you can end up with extra whitespace at the end of lines. These whitespace differences can be picked up by source control systems and flagged as diffs, causing frustration for developers. While this extra whitespace causes no functional issues, many code conventions require that trailing spaces be removed before checkin.

Rule Details

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint no-trailing-spaces: "error"*/

// spaces, tabs and unicode whitespaces
// are not allowed at the end of lines
var foo = 0;//•••••
var baz = 5;//••

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint no-trailing-spaces: "error"*/

var foo = 0;

var baz = 5;

Options

There is one option for this rule, skipBlankLines. When set to true, the rule will not flag any lines that are made up purely of whitespace. In short, if a line is zero-length after being trimmed of whitespace, then the rule will not flag that line when skipBlankLines is enabled.

You can enable this option in your config like this:

{
    "no-trailing-spaces": ["error", { "skipBlankLines": true }]
}

With this option enabled, The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint no-trailing-spaces: ["error", { "skipBlankLines": true }]*/

var foo = 0;
//••••
var baz = 5;

Disallow use of negated expressions in conditions (no-negated-condition)

Checks against the use of a negated expression in an if condition when the else branch is not empty or in a ternary operator. Negated conditions are more difficult to understand. Code can be made more readable by inverting the condition instead.

For example:

if (!a) {
    doSomething();
}
else {
    doSomethingElse();
}

should instead be written as:

if (a) {
    doSomethingElse();
}
else {
    doSomething();
}

Rule Details

The rule is aimed at preventing the use of a negated expression in a condition.

The following patterns are considered warnings:

/*eslint no-negated-condition: "error"*/

if (!a) {
    doSomething();
} else {
    doSomethingElse();
}

if (a != b) {
    doSomething();
} else {
    doSomethingElse();
}

if (a !== b) {
    doSomething();
} else {
    doSomethingElse();
}


!a ? b : c

The following patterns are not warnings:

/*eslint no-negated-condition: "error"*/

if (!a) {
    doSomething();
}

if (!a) {
    doSomething();
} else if (b) {
    doSomething();
}

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.

tab

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "tab" option:

/*eslint indent: ["error", "tab"]*/

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

 }
}

Examples of correct code for this rule with the "tab" option:

/*eslint indent: ["error", "tab"]*/

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

Disallow whitespace before properties (no-whitespace-before-property)

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

JavaScript allows whitespace between objects and their properties. However, inconsistent spacing can make code harder to read and can lead to errors.

foo. bar .baz . quz

Rule Details

This rule alerts for whitespace around the dot or before the opening bracket before properties of objects if they are on the same line. It does not alert for whitespace when the object and property are on separate lines, as it is common to add newlines to longer chains of properties:

foo
  .bar()
  .baz()
  .qux()

The following patterns are considered problems when this rule is turned on:

/*eslint no-whitespace-before-property: "error"*/

foo [bar]

foo. bar

foo .bar

foo. bar. baz

foo. bar()
  .baz()

foo
  .bar(). baz()

And the following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint no-whitespace-before-property: "error"*/

foo.bar

foo[bar]

foo[ bar ]

foo.bar.baz

foo
  .bar().baz()

foo
  .bar()
  .baz()

foo.
  bar().
  baz()

When Not To Use It

Turn this rule off if you do not care about allowing whitespace around the dot or before the opening bracket before properties of objects if they are on the same line. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

Enforce Quote Style (quotes)

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

JavaScript allows you to define strings in one of three ways: double quotes, single quotes, and backticks (as of ECMAScript 6). For example:

/*eslint-env es6*/

var double = "double";
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `backtick`;    // ES6 only

Each of these lines creates a string and, in some cases, can be used interchangeably. The choice of how to define strings in a codebase is a stylistic one outside of template literals (which allow embedded of expressions to be interpreted).

Many codebases require strings to be defined in a consistent manner.

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at ensuring consistency of string quotes and as such will report a problem when an inconsistent style is found.

The rule configuration takes up to two options:

1. The first option is "double", "single" or "backtick" for double-quotes, single-quotes or backticks respectively. The default is "double".
2. The second option takes two options:
   1. "avoidEscape": When using "avoidEscape", this rule will not report a problem when a string is using single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise. For example, if you specify "double" and "avoidEscape", the string 'He said, "hi!"' is not considered a problem because using double quotes for that string would require escaping the double quotes inside of the string. This option is off by default.
   2. "allowTemplateLiterals": when using "allowTemplateLiterals", this rule will not report a problem when a string is using backticks and option one is either "double" or "single".

When using "single" or "double", template literals that don't contain a substitution, don't contain a line break and aren't tagged templates, are flagged as problems, even with the "avoidEscape" option. However they are not problems when "allowTemplateLiterals" is used.

Configuration looks like this:

[2, "single", {"avoidEscape": true, "allowTemplateLiterals": true}]

Deprecation notice: The avoid-escape option is a deprecated syntax and you should use the object form instead.

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double"]*/

var single = 'single';
var unescaped = 'a string containing "double" quotes';

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single"]*/

var double = "double";
var unescaped = "a string containing 'single' quotes";

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double", {"avoidEscape": true}]*/

var single = 'single';
var single = `single`;

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single", {"avoidEscape": true}]*/

var double = "double";
var double = `double`;

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick"]*/

var single = 'single';
var double = "double";
var unescaped = 'a string containing `backticks`';

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick", {"avoidEscape": true}]*/

var single = 'single';
var double = "double";

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var double = "double";
var backtick = `back\ntick`;  // backticks are allowed due to newline
var backtick = tag`backtick`; // backticks are allowed due to tag

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var single = 'single';
var backtick = `back${x}tick`; // backticks are allowed due to substitution

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double", {"avoidEscape": true}]*/

var single = 'a string containing "double" quotes';

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single", {"avoidEscape": true}]*/

var double = "a string containing 'single' quotes";

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double", {"allowTemplateLiterals": true}]*/

var single = 'single';
var single = `single`;

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single", {"allowTemplateLiterals": true}]*/

var double = "double";
var double = `double`;

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var backtick = `backtick`;

/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick", {"avoidEscape": true}]*/

var double = "a string containing `backtick` quotes"

When Not To Use It

If you do not need consistency in your string styles, you can safely disable this rule. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

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
