Rule: no-empty

Disallows empty blocks.

Blocks with a comment inside are not considered empty.

Rationale

Empty blocks are often indicators of missing code.

Config

If allow-empty-catch is specified, then catch blocks are allowed to be empty. If allow-empty-functions is specified, then function definitions are allowed to be empty.

Examples

"no-empty": true

"no-empty": true,allow-empty-catch

"no-empty": true,allow-empty-functions

"no-empty": true,allow-empty-catch,allow-empty-functions

Schema

{
  "type": "array",
  "items": {
    "anyOf": [
      {
        "type": "string",
        "enum": [
          "allow-empty-catch"
        ]
      },
      {
        "type": "string",
        "enum": [
          "allow-empty-functions"
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Rule: prefer-const

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

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

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

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

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

Examples

"prefer-const": true

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

Schema

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

Rule: no-unused-expression

Disallows unused expression statements.

Unused expressions are expression statements which are not assignments or function calls (and thus usually no-ops).

Rationale

Detects potential errors where an assignment or function call was intended.

Config

Three arguments may be optionally provided:

• allow-fast-null-checks allows to use logical operators to perform fast null checks and perform method or function calls for side effects (e.g. e && e.preventDefault()).
• allow-new allows 'new' expressions for side effects (e.g. new ModifyGlobalState();.
• allow-tagged-template allows tagged templates for side effects (e.g. this.add\foo`;`.

Examples

"no-unused-expression": true

"no-unused-expression": true,allow-fast-null-checks

Schema

{
  "type": "array",
  "items": {
    "type": "string",
    "enum": [
      "allow-fast-null-checks",
      "allow-new",
      "allow-tagged-template"
    ]
  },
  "minLength": 0,
  "maxLength": 3
}

Rule: no-trailing-whitespace

Disallows trailing whitespace at the end of a line.

Rationale

Keeps version control diffs clean as it prevents accidental whitespace from being committed.

Notes

• Has Fix

Config

Possible settings are:

• "ignore-template-strings": Allows trailing whitespace in template strings.
• "ignore-comments": Allows trailing whitespace in comments.
• "ignore-jsdoc": Allows trailing whitespace only in JSDoc comments.
• "ignore-blank-lines": Allows trailing whitespace on empty lines.

Examples

"no-trailing-whitespace": true

"no-trailing-whitespace": true,ignore-comments

"no-trailing-whitespace": true,ignore-jsdoc

Schema

{
  "type": "array",
  "items": {
    "type": "string",
    "enum": [
      "ignore-comments",
      "ignore-jsdoc",
      "ignore-template-strings",
      "ignore-blank-lines"
    ]
  }
}
