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:

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.

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 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"

}

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

Disallows multiple blank lines (no-multiple-empty-lines)

Some developers prefer to have multiple blank lines removed, while others feel that it helps improve readability. Whitespace is useful for separating logical sections of code, but excess whitespace takes up more of the screen.

Rule Details

This rule aims to reduce the scrolling required when reading through your code. It will warn when the maximum amount of empty lines has been exceeded.

Options

The second argument can be used to configure this rule:

• max sets the maximum number of consecutive blank lines.
• maxEOF can be used to set a different number for the end of file. The last blank lines will then be treated differently. If omitted, the max option is applied at the end of the file.
• maxBOF can be used to set a different number for the beginning of the file. If omitted, the 'max' option is applied at the beginning of the file.

max

In the following example, the error is the severity of the rule, and the max property is the maximum number of empty lines (2 in this example).

"no-multiple-empty-lines": ["error", {"max": 2}]

The following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint no-multiple-empty-lines: ["error", {max: 2}]*/


var foo = 5;



var bar = 3;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint no-multiple-empty-lines: ["error", {max: 2}]*/


var foo = 5;


var bar = 3;

var foo = 5;


var bar = 3;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

Operator Linebreak (operator-linebreak)

When a statement is too long to fit on a single line, line breaks are generally inserted next to the operators separating expressions. The first style coming to mind would be to place the operator at the end of the line, following the english punctuation rules.

var fullHeight = borderTop +
                 innerHeight +
                 borderBottom;

Some developers find that placing operators at the beginning of the line makes the code more readable.

var fullHeight = borderTop
               + innerHeight
               + borderBottom;

Rule Details

The operator-linebreak rule is aimed at enforcing a particular operator line break style. As such, it warns whenever it sees a binary operator or assignment that does not adhere to a particular style: either placing linebreaks after or before the operators.

Options

The rule takes two options, a string, which can be "after", "before" or "none" where the default is "after" and an object for more fine-grained configuration.

You can set the style in configuration like this:

"operator-linebreak": ["error", "before", { "overrides": { "?": "after" } }]

The default configuration is to enforce line breaks after the operator except for the ternary operator ? and : following that.

"after"

This is the default setting for this rule. This option requires the line break to be placed after the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "after"]*/

foo = 1
+
2;

foo = 1
    + 2;

foo
    = 5;

if (someCondition
    || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything
  ? 42
  : foo;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "after"]*/

foo = 1 + 2;

foo = 1 +
      2;

foo =
    5;

if (someCondition ||
    otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything ?
  42 :
  foo;

"before"

This option requires the line break to be placed before the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "before"]*/

foo = 1 +
      2;

foo =
    5;

if (someCondition ||
    otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything ?
  42 :
  foo;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "before"]*/

foo = 1 + 2;

foo = 1
    + 2;

foo
    = 5;

if (someCondition
    || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything
  ? 42
  : foo;

"none"

This option disallows line breaks on either side of the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "none"]*/

foo = 1 +
      2;

foo = 1
    + 2;

if (someCondition ||
    otherCondition) {
}

if (someCondition
    || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything
  ? 42
  : foo;

answer = everything ?
  42 :
  foo;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "none"]*/

foo = 1 + 2;

foo = 5;

if (someCondition || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything ? 42 : foo;

Fine-grained control

The rule allows you to have even finer-grained control over individual operators by specifying an overrides dictionary:

"operator-linebreak": ["error", "before", { "overrides": { "?": "after", "+=": "none" } }]

This would override the global setting for that specific operator.

"ignore" override

This option is only supported using overrides and ignores line breaks on either side of the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "after", { "overrides": { "?": "ignore", ":": "ignore"} }]*/

answer = everything ?
  42
  : foo;

answer = everything
  ?
  42
  :
  foo;

When Not To Use It

If your project will not be using a common operator line break style, turn this rule off.

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

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.

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/

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

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/

Operator Linebreak (operator-linebreak)

When a statement is too long to fit on a single line, line breaks are generally inserted next to the operators separating expressions. The first style coming to mind would be to place the operator at the end of the line, following the english punctuation rules.

var fullHeight = borderTop +
                 innerHeight +
                 borderBottom;

Some developers find that placing operators at the beginning of the line makes the code more readable.

var fullHeight = borderTop
               + innerHeight
               + borderBottom;

Rule Details

The operator-linebreak rule is aimed at enforcing a particular operator line break style. As such, it warns whenever it sees a binary operator or assignment that does not adhere to a particular style: either placing linebreaks after or before the operators.

Options

The rule takes two options, a string, which can be "after", "before" or "none" where the default is "after" and an object for more fine-grained configuration.

You can set the style in configuration like this:

"operator-linebreak": ["error", "before", { "overrides": { "?": "after" } }]

The default configuration is to enforce line breaks after the operator except for the ternary operator ? and : following that.

"after"

This is the default setting for this rule. This option requires the line break to be placed after the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "after"]*/

foo = 1
+
2;

foo = 1
    + 2;

foo
    = 5;

if (someCondition
    || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything
  ? 42
  : foo;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "after"]*/

foo = 1 + 2;

foo = 1 +
      2;

foo =
    5;

if (someCondition ||
    otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything ?
  42 :
  foo;

"before"

This option requires the line break to be placed before the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "before"]*/

foo = 1 +
      2;

foo =
    5;

if (someCondition ||
    otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything ?
  42 :
  foo;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "before"]*/

foo = 1 + 2;

foo = 1
    + 2;

foo
    = 5;

if (someCondition
    || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything
  ? 42
  : foo;

"none"

This option disallows line breaks on either side of the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "none"]*/

foo = 1 +
      2;

foo = 1
    + 2;

if (someCondition ||
    otherCondition) {
}

if (someCondition
    || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything
  ? 42
  : foo;

answer = everything ?
  42 :
  foo;

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "none"]*/

foo = 1 + 2;

foo = 5;

if (someCondition || otherCondition) {
}

answer = everything ? 42 : foo;

Fine-grained control

The rule allows you to have even finer-grained control over individual operators by specifying an overrides dictionary:

"operator-linebreak": ["error", "before", { "overrides": { "?": "after", "+=": "none" } }]

This would override the global setting for that specific operator.

"ignore" override

This option is only supported using overrides and ignores line breaks on either side of the operator.

While using this setting, the following patterns are not considered problems:

/*eslint operator-linebreak: ["error", "after", { "overrides": { "?": "ignore", ":": "ignore"} }]*/

answer = everything ?
  42
  : foo;

answer = everything
  ?
  42
  :
  foo;

When Not To Use It

If your project will not be using a common operator line break style, turn this rule off.
