disallow dangling underscores in identifiers (no-underscore-dangle)

As far as naming conventions for identifiers go, dangling underscores may be the most polarizing in JavaScript. Dangling underscores are underscores at either the beginning or end of an identifier, such as:

var _foo;

There is actually a long history of using dangling underscores to indicate "private" members of objects in JavaScript (though JavaScript doesn't have truly private members, this convention served as a warning). This began with SpiderMonkey adding nonstandard methods such as __defineGetter__(). The intent with the underscores was to make it obvious that this method was special in some way. Since that time, using a single underscore prefix has become popular as a way to indicate "private" members of objects.

Whether or not you choose to allow dangling underscores in identifiers is purely a convention and has no effect on performance, readability, or complexity. It's purely a preference.

Rule Details

This rule disallows dangling underscores in identifiers.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-underscore-dangle: "error"*/

var foo_;
var __proto__ = {};
foo._bar();

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint no-underscore-dangle: "error"*/

var _ = require('underscore');
var obj = _.contains(items, item);
obj.__proto__ = {};
var file = __filename;

Options

This rule has an object option:

• "allow" allows specified identifiers to have dangling underscores
• "allowAfterThis": false (default) disallows dangling underscores in members of the this object
• "allowAfterSuper": false (default) disallows dangling underscores in members of the super object

allow

Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the { "allow": ["foo_", "_bar"] } option:

/*eslint no-underscore-dangle: ["error", { "allow": ["foo_", "_bar"] }]*/

var foo_;
foo._bar();

allowAfterThis

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

/*eslint no-underscore-dangle: ["error", { "allowAfterThis": true }]*/

var a = this.foo_;
this._bar();

allowAfterSuper

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

/*eslint no-underscore-dangle: ["error", { "allowAfterSuper": true }]*/

var a = super.foo_;
super._bar();

When Not To Use It

If you want to allow dangling underscores in identifiers, then you can safely turn this rule off. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

enforce consistent spacing between keys and values in object literal properties (key-spacing)

This rule enforces spacing around the colon in object literal properties. It can verify each property individually, or it can ensure horizontal alignment of adjacent properties in an object literal.

Rule Details

This rule enforces consistent spacing between keys and values in object literal properties. In the case of long lines, it is acceptable to add a new line wherever whitespace is allowed.

Options

This rule has an object option:

• "beforeColon": false (default) disallows spaces between the key and the colon in object literals.
• "beforeColon": true requires at least one space between the key and the colon in object literals.
• "afterColon": true (default) requires at least one space between the colon and the value in object literals.
• "afterColon": false disallows spaces between the colon and the value in object literals.
• "mode": "strict" (default) enforces exactly one space before or after colons in object literals.
• "mode": "minimum" enforces one or more spaces before or after colons in object literals.
• "align": "value" enforces horizontal alignment of values in object literals.
• "align": "colon" enforces horizontal alignment of both colons and values in object literals.
• "align" with an object value allows for fine-grained spacing when values are being aligned in object literals.
• "singleLine" specifies a spacing style for single-line object literals.
• "multiLine" specifies a spacing style for multi-line object literals.

Please note that you can either use the top-level options or the grouped options (singleLine and multiLine) but not both.

});

align

The align option can take additional configuration through the beforeColon, afterColon, mode, and on options.

If align is defined as an object, but not all of the parameters are provided, undefined parameters will default to the following:

// Defaults
align: {
    "beforeColon": false,
    "afterColon": true,
    "on": "colon",
    "mode": "strict"
}

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample { "align": { } } options:

var obj = {
    "one":  1,
    "seven":7
}

align and multiLine

The multiLine and align options can differ, which allows for fine-tuned control over the key-spacing of your files. align will not inherit from multiLine if align is configured as an object.

multiLine is used any time an object literal spans multiple lines. The align configuration is used when there is a group of properties in the same object. For example:

var myObj = {
  key1: 1, // uses multiLine

  key2: 2, // uses align (when defined)
  key3: 3, // uses align (when defined)

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample { "align": { }, "multiLine": { } } options:

/*eslint key-spacing: ["error", {
    "multiLine": {
        "beforeColon": false,

    },
    "align": {
        "beforeColon": true,
        "afterColon": true,
        "on": "colon"
    }

var obj = {
    "myObjectFunction": function() {
        // Do something
        //
    }, // These are two separate groups, so no alignment between `myObjectFuction` and `one`
    "one"   : 1,
    "seven" : 7 // `one` and `seven` are in their own group, and therefore aligned
}

singleLine and multiLine

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample { "singleLine": { }, "multiLine": { } } options:

/*eslint "key-spacing": [2, {

enforce variables to be declared either together or separately in functions (one-var)

Variables can be declared at any point in JavaScript code using var, let, or const. There are many styles and preferences related to the declaration of variables, and one of those is deciding on how many variable declarations should be allowed in a single function.

There are two schools of thought in this regard:

1. There should be just one variable declaration for all variables in the function. That declaration typically appears at the top of the function.
2. You should use one variable declaration for each variable you want to define.

For instance:

// one variable declaration per function
function foo() {
    var bar, baz;
}

// multiple variable declarations per function
function foo() {
    var bar;
    var baz;
}

The single-declaration school of thought is based in pre-ECMAScript 6 behaviors, where there was no such thing as block scope, only function scope. Since all var statements are hoisted to the top of the function anyway, some believe that declaring all variables in a single declaration at the top of the function removes confusion around scoping rules.

Rule Details

This rule enforces variables to be declared either together or separately per function ( for var) or block (for let and const) scope.

Options

This rule has one option, which can be a string option or an object option.

String option:

• "always" (default) requires one variable declaration per scope
• "never" requires multiple variable declarations per scope

Object option:

• "var": "always" requires one var declaration per function
• "var": "never" requires multiple var declarations per function
• "let": "always" requires one let declaration per block
• "let": "never" requires multiple let declarations per block
• "const": "always" requires one const declaration per block
• "const": "never" requires multiple const declarations per block

Alternate object option:

• "initialized": "always" requires one variable declaration for initialized variables per scope
• "initialized": "never" requires multiple variable declarations for initialized variables per scope
• "uninitialized": "always" requires one variable declaration for uninitialized variables per scope
• "uninitialized": "never" requires multiple variable declarations for uninitialized variables per scope

always

Disallow multiple spaces (no-multi-spaces)

Multiple spaces in a row that are not used for indentation are typically mistakes. For example:

if(foo  === "bar") {}

It's hard to tell, but there are two spaces between foo and ===. Multiple spaces such as this are generally frowned upon in favor of single spaces:

if(foo === "bar") {}

Rule Details

This rule aims to disallow multiple whitespace around logical expressions, conditional expressions, declarations, array elements, object properties, sequences and function parameters.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

var a =  1;

if(foo   === "bar") {}

a <<  b

var arr = [1,  2];

a ?  b: c

Examples of correct code for this rule:

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

var a = 1;

if(foo === "bar") {}

a << b

var arr = [1, 2];

a ? b: c

Options

To avoid contradictions if some other rules require multiple spaces, this rule has an option to ignore certain node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code.

exceptions

The exceptions object expects property names to be AST node types as defined by ESTree. The easiest way to determine the node types for exceptions is to use the online demo.

Only the Property node type is ignored by default, because for the [key-spacing](key-spacing.md) rule some alignment options require multiple spaces in properties of object literals.

Examples of correct code for the default "exceptions": { "Property": true } option:

/*eslint no-multi-spaces: "error"*/
/*eslint key-spacing: ["error", { align: "value" }]*/

var obj = {
    first:  "first",
    second: "second"
};

Examples of incorrect code for the "exceptions": { "Property": false } option:

/*eslint no-multi-spaces: ["error", { exceptions: { "Property": false } }]*/
/*eslint key-spacing: ["error", { align: "value" }]*/

var obj = {
    first:  "first",
    second: "second"
};

Examples of correct code for the "exceptions": { "BinaryExpression": true } option:

/*eslint no-multi-spaces: ["error", { exceptions: { "BinaryExpression": true } }]*/

var a = 1  *  2;

Examples of correct code for the "exceptions": { "VariableDeclarator": true } option:

/*eslint no-multi-spaces: ["error", { exceptions: { "VariableDeclarator": true } }]*/

var someVar      = 'foo';
var someOtherVar = 'barBaz';

Examples of correct code for the "exceptions": { "ImportDeclaration": true } option:

/*eslint no-multi-spaces: ["error", { exceptions: { "ImportDeclaration": true } }]*/

import mod          from 'mod';
import someOtherMod from 'some-other-mod';

When Not To Use It

If you don't want to check and disallow multiple spaces, then you should turn this rule off.

require let or const instead of var (no-var)

ECMAScript 6 allows programmers to create variables with block scope instead of function scope using the let and const keywords. Block scope is common in many other programming languages and helps programmers avoid mistakes such as:

var count = people.length;
var enoughFood = count > sandwiches.length;

if (enoughFood) {
    var count = sandwiches.length; // accidentally overriding the count variable
    console.log("We have " + count + " sandwiches for everyone. Plenty for all!");
}

// our count variable is no longer accurate
console.log("We have " + count + " people and " + sandwiches.length + " sandwiches!");

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at discouraging the use of var and encouraging the use of const or let instead.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

const CONFIG = {};

When Not To Use It

In addition to non-ES6 environments, existing JavaScript projects that are beginning to introduce ES6 into their codebase may not want to apply this rule if the cost of migrating from var to let is too costly. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

Require Object Literal Shorthand Syntax (object-shorthand)

EcmaScript 6 provides a concise form for defining object literal methods and properties. This syntax can make defining complex object literals much cleaner.

Here are a few common examples using the ES5 syntax:

// properties
var foo = {
    x: x,
    y: y,
    z: z,
};

// methods
var foo = {
    a: function() {},
    b: function() {}
};

Now here are ES6 equivalents:

/*eslint-env es6*/

// properties
var foo = {x, y, z};

// methods
var foo = {
    a() {},
    b() {}
};

Rule Details

This rule enforces the use of the shorthand syntax. This applies to all methods (including generators) defined in object literals and any properties defined where the key name matches name of the assigned variable.

Each of the following properties would warn:

/*eslint object-shorthand: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
    w: function() {},
    x: function *() {},
    [y]: function() {},
    z: z
};

In that case the expected syntax would have been:

/*eslint object-shorthand: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
    w() {},
    *x() {},
    [y]() {},
    z
};

This rule does not flag arrow functions inside of object literals. The following will not warn:

/*eslint object-shorthand: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
    x: (y) => y
};

Options

The rule takes an option which specifies when it should be applied. It can be set to one of the following values:

• "always" (default) expects that the shorthand will be used whenever possible.
• "methods" ensures the method shorthand is used (also applies to generators).
• "properties" ensures the property shorthand is used (where the key and variable name match).
• "never" ensures that no property or method shorthand is used in any object literal.
• "consistent" ensures that either all shorthand or all longform will be used in an object literal.
• "consistent-as-needed" ensures that either all shorthand or all longform will be used in an object literal, but ensures all shorthand whenever possible.

You can set the option in configuration like this:

{
    "object-shorthand": ["error", "always"]
}

Additionally, the rule takes an optional object configuration:

• "avoidQuotes": true indicates that longform syntax is preferred whenever the object key is a string literal (default: false). Note that this option can only be enabled when the string option is set to "always", "methods", or "properties".
• "ignoreConstructors": true can be used to prevent the rule from reporting errors for constructor functions. (By default, the rule treats constructors the same way as other functions.) Note that this option can only be enabled when the string option is set to "always" or "methods".
• "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true indicates that methods are preferred over explicit-return arrow functions for function properties. (By default, the rule allows either of these.) Note that this option can only be enabled when the string option is set to "always" or "methods".

    "object-shorthand": ["error", "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true }]
}

Example of incorrect code for this rule with the "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true } option:

/*eslint object-shorthand: ["error", "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
  foo: (bar, baz) => {
    return bar + baz;
  },

  qux: (foobar) => {
    return foobar * 2;
  }
};

Example of correct code for this rule with the "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true } option:

/*eslint object-shorthand: ["error", "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
  foo(bar, baz) {
    return bar + baz;
  },

  qux: foobar => foobar * 2
};

Example of incorrect code for this rule with the "consistent" option:

/*eslint object-shorthand: [2, "consistent"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
    a,
    b: "foo",
};

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

/*eslint object-shorthand: [2, "consistent"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
    a: a,
    b: "foo"
};

var bar = {
    a,
    b,
};

Example of incorrect code with the "consistent-as-needed" option, which is very similar to "consistent":

/*eslint object-shorthand: [2, "consistent-as-needed"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var foo = {
    a: a,
    b: b,
};

When Not To Use It

Anyone not yet in an ES6 environment would not want to apply this rule. Others may find the terseness of the shorthand syntax harder to read and may not want to encourage it with this rule.

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.

Disallow Early Use (no-use-before-define)

In JavaScript, prior to ES6, variable and function declarations are hoisted to the top of a scope, so it's possible to use identifiers before their formal declarations in code. This can be confusing and some believe it is best to always declare variables and functions before using them.

In ES6, block-level bindings (let and const) introduce a "temporal dead zone" where a ReferenceError will be thrown with any attempt to access the variable before its declaration.

Rule Details

This rule will warn when it encounters a reference to an identifier that has not yet been declared.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-use-before-define: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

alert(a);
var a = 10;

f();
function f() {}

function g() {
    return b;
}
var b = 1;

// With blockBindings: true
{
    alert(c);
    let c = 1;
}

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint no-use-before-define: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var a;
a = 10;
alert(a);

function f() {}
f(1);

var b = 1;
function g() {
    return b;
}

// With blockBindings: true
{
    let C;
    c++;
}

Options

{
    "no-use-before-define": ["error", { "functions": true, "classes": true }]
}

• functions (boolean) - The flag which shows whether or not this rule checks function declarations. If this is true, this rule warns every reference to a function before the function declaration. Otherwise, ignores those references. Function declarations are hoisted, so it's safe. Default is true.
• classes (boolean) - The flag which shows whether or not this rule checks class declarations of upper scopes. If this is true, this rule warns every reference to a class before the class declaration. Otherwise, ignores those references if the declaration is in upper function scopes. Class declarations are not hoisted, so it might be danger. Default is true.
• variables (boolean) - This flag determines whether or not the rule checks variable declarations in upper scopes. If this is true, the rule warns every reference to a variable before the variable declaration. Otherwise, the rule ignores a reference if the declaration is in an upper scope, while still reporting the reference if it's in the same scope as the declaration. Default is true.

This rule accepts "nofunc" string as an option. "nofunc" is the same as { "functions": false, "classes": true }.

functions

disallow variable declarations from shadowing variables declared in the outer scope (no-shadow)

Shadowing is the process by which a local variable shares the same name as a variable in its containing scope. For example:

var a = 3;
function b() {
    var a = 10;
}

In this case, the variable a inside of b() is shadowing the variable a in the global scope. This can cause confusion while reading the code and it's impossible to access the global variable.

Rule Details

This rule aims to eliminate shadowed variable declarations.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-shadow: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

var a = 3;
function b() {
    var a = 10;
}

var b = function () {
    var a = 10;
}

function b(a) {
    a = 10;
}
b(a);

if (true) {
    let a = 5;
}

Options

This rule takes one option, an object, with properties "builtinGlobals", "hoist" and "allow".

{
    "no-shadow": ["error", { "builtinGlobals": false, "hoist": "functions", "allow": [] }]
}

builtinGlobals

The builtinGlobals option is false by default. If it is true, the rule prevents shadowing of built-in global variables: Object, Array, Number, and so on.

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

/*eslint no-shadow: ["error", { "builtinGlobals": true }]*/

function foo() {
    var Object = 0;
}

hoist

The hoist option has three settings:

• functions (by default) - reports shadowing before the outer functions are defined.
• all - reports all shadowing before the outer variables/functions are defined.
• never - never report shadowing before the outer variables/functions are defined.

hoist: functions

Examples of incorrect code for the default { "hoist": "functions" } option:

/*eslint no-shadow: ["error", { "hoist": "functions" }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

if (true) {
    let b = 6;
}

function b() {}

Although let b in the if statement is before the function declaration in the outer scope, it is incorrect.

Examples of correct code for the default { "hoist": "functions" } option:

/*eslint no-shadow: ["error", { "hoist": "functions" }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

if (true) {
    let a = 3;
}

let a = 5;

Because let a in the if statement is before the variable declaration in the outer scope, it is correct.

hoist: all

Examples of incorrect code for the { "hoist": "all" } option:

/*eslint no-shadow: ["error", { "hoist": "all" }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

if (true) {
    let a = 3;
    let b = 6;
}

let a = 5;
function b() {}

hoist: never

Examples of correct code for the { "hoist": "never" } option:

/*eslint no-shadow: ["error", { "hoist": "never" }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

if (true) {
    let a = 3;
    let b = 6;
}

let a = 5;
function b() {}

Because let a and let b in the if statement are before the declarations in the outer scope, they are correct.

allow

The allow option is an array of identifier names for which shadowing is allowed. For example, "resolve", "reject", "done", "cb".

Examples of correct code for the { "allow": ["done"] } option:

/*eslint no-shadow: ["error", { "allow": ["done"] }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

import async from 'async';

function foo(done) {
  async.map([1, 2], function (e, done) {
    done(null, e * 2)
  }, done);
}

foo(function (err, result) {
  console.log({ err, result });
});

enforce the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes (quotes)

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 enforces the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes.

Options

This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.

String option:

• "double" (default) requires the use of double quotes wherever possible
• "single" requires the use of single quotes wherever possible
• "backtick" requires the use of backticks wherever possible

Object option:

• "avoidEscape": true allows strings to use single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise
• "allowTemplateLiterals": true allows strings to use backticks

Deprecated: The object property avoid-escape is deprecated; please use the object property avoidEscape instead.

double

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

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

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

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

/*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

single

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

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

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

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

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

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

backticks

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

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

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

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

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

var backtick = `backtick`;

avoidEscape

Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "double", { "avoidEscape": true } options:

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

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

Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "single", { "avoidEscape": true } options:

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

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

Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "backtick", { "avoidEscape": true } options:

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

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

allowTemplateLiterals

Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "double", { "allowTemplateLiterals": true } options:

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

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

Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "single", { "allowTemplateLiterals": true } options:

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

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

Require Variable Declarations to be at the top of their scope (vars-on-top)

The vars-on-top rule generates warnings when variable declarations are not used serially at the top of a function scope or the top of a program. By default variable declarations are always moved (“hoisted”) invisibly to the top of their containing scope by the JavaScript interpreter. This rule forces the programmer to represent that behaviour by manually moving the variable declaration to the top of its containing scope.

Rule Details

This rule aims to keep all variable declarations in the leading series of statements. Allowing multiple declarations helps promote maintainability and is thus allowed.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/

// Variable declarations in a block:
function doSomething() {
    var first;
    if (true) {
        first = true;
    }
    var second;
}

// Variable declaration in for initializer:
function doSomething() {
    for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {}
}

/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/

// Variables after other statements:
f();
var a;

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/

function doSomething() {
    var first;
    var second; //multiple declarations are allowed at the top
    if (true) {
        first = true;
    }
}

function doSomething() {
    var i;
    for (i=0; i<10; i++) {}
}

/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/

var a;
f();

/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/

// Directives may precede variable declarations.
"use strict";
var a;
f();

// Comments can describe variables.
function doSomething() {
    // this is the first var.
    var first;
    // this is the second var.
    var second
}

require let or const instead of var (no-var)

ECMAScript 6 allows programmers to create variables with block scope instead of function scope using the let and const keywords. Block scope is common in many other programming languages and helps programmers avoid mistakes such as:

var count = people.length;
var enoughFood = count > sandwiches.length;

if (enoughFood) {
    var count = sandwiches.length; // accidentally overriding the count variable
    console.log("We have " + count + " sandwiches for everyone. Plenty for all!");
}

// our count variable is no longer accurate
console.log("We have " + count + " people and " + sandwiches.length + " sandwiches!");

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at discouraging the use of var and encouraging the use of const or let instead.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

When Not To Use It

Require Following Curly Brace Conventions (curly)

JavaScript allows the omission of curly braces when a block contains only one statement. However, it is considered by many to be best practice to never omit curly braces around blocks, even when they are optional, because it can lead to bugs and reduces code clarity. So the following:

if (foo) foo++;

Can be rewritten as:

if (foo) {
    foo++;
}

There are, however, some who prefer to only use braces when there is more than one statement to be executed.

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at preventing bugs and increasing code clarity by ensuring that block statements are wrapped in curly braces. It will warn when it encounters blocks that omit curly braces.

Options

all

Examples of incorrect code for the default "all" option:

/*eslint curly: "error"*/

if (foo) foo++;

while (bar)
    baz();

if (foo) {
    baz();
} else qux();

Examples of correct code for the default "all" option:

/*eslint curly: "error"*/

if (foo) {
    foo++;
}

while (bar) {
    baz();
}

if (foo) {
    baz();
} else {
    qux();
}

multi

By default, this rule warns whenever if, else, for, while, or do are used without block statements as their body. However, you can specify that block statements should be used only when there are multiple statements in the block and warn when there is only one statement in the block.

Examples of incorrect code for the "multi" option:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi"]*/

if (foo) {
    foo++;
}

if (foo) bar();
else {
    foo++;
}

while (true) {
    doSomething();
}

for (var i=0; i < items.length; i++) {
    doSomething();
}

Examples of correct code for the "multi" option:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi"]*/

if (foo) foo++;

else foo();

while (true) {
    doSomething();
    doSomethingElse();
}

multi-line

Alternatively, you can relax the rule to allow brace-less single-line if, else if, else, for, while, or do, while still enforcing the use of curly braces for other instances.

Examples of incorrect code for the "multi-line" option:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi-line"]*/

if (foo)
  doSomething();
else
  doSomethingElse();

if (foo) foo(
  bar,
  baz);

Examples of correct code for the "multi-line" option:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi-line"]*/

if (foo) foo++; else doSomething();

if (foo) foo++;
else if (bar) baz()
else doSomething();

do something();
while (foo);

while (foo
  && bar) baz();

if (foo) {
    foo++;
}

if (foo) { foo++; }

while (true) {
    doSomething();
    doSomethingElse();
}

multi-or-nest

You can use another configuration that forces brace-less if, else if, else, for, while, or do if their body contains only one single-line statement. And forces braces in all other cases.

Examples of incorrect code for the "multi-or-nest" option:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi-or-nest"]*/

if (!foo)
    foo = {
        bar: baz,
        qux: foo
    };

while (true)
  if(foo)
      doSomething();
  else
      doSomethingElse();

if (foo) {
    foo++;
}

while (true) {
    doSomething();
}

for (var i = 0; foo; i++) {
    doSomething();
}

if (foo)
    // some comment
    bar();

Examples of correct code for the "multi-or-nest" option:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi-or-nest"]*/

if (!foo) {
    foo = {
        bar: baz,
        qux: foo
    };
}

while (true) {
  if(foo)
      doSomething();
  else
      doSomethingElse();
}

if (foo)
    foo++;

while (true)
    doSomething();

for (var i = 0; foo; i++)
    doSomething();

if (foo) {
    // some comment
    bar();
}

consistent

When using any of the multi* options, you can add an option to enforce all bodies of a if, else if and else chain to be with or without braces.

Examples of incorrect code for the "multi", "consistent" options:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi", "consistent"]*/

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

if (foo)
    bar();
else if (faa)
    bor();
else {
    other();
    things();
}

if (true)
    foo();
else {
    baz();
}

if (foo) {
    foo++;
}

Examples of correct code for the "multi", "consistent" options:

/*eslint curly: ["error", "multi", "consistent"]*/

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

if (foo) {
    bar();
} else if (faa) {
    bor();
} else {
    other();
    things();
}

if (true)
    foo();
else
    baz();

if (foo)
    foo++;

When Not To Use It

If you have no strict conventions about when to use block statements and when not to, you can safely disable this rule. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

disallow the unary operators ++ and -- (no-plusplus)

Because the unary ++ and -- operators are subject to automatic semicolon insertion, differences in whitespace can change semantics of source code.

var i = 10;
var j = 20;

i ++
j
// i = 11, j = 20

var i = 10;
var j = 20;

i
++
j
// i = 10, j = 21

Rule Details

This rule disallows the unary operators ++ and --.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

var foo = 0;
foo++;

var bar = 42;
bar--;

for (i = 0; i < l; i++) {
    return;
}

Examples of correct code for this rule:

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

var foo = 0;
foo += 1;

var bar = 42;
bar -= 1;

for (i = 0; i < l; i += 1) {
    return;
}

Options

This rule has an object option.

• "allowForLoopAfterthoughts": true allows unary operators ++ and -- in the afterthought (final expression) of a for loop.

Disallow Early Use (no-use-before-define)

In JavaScript, prior to ES6, variable and function declarations are hoisted to the top of a scope, so it's possible to use identifiers before their formal declarations in code. This can be confusing and some believe it is best to always declare variables and functions before using them.

In ES6, block-level bindings (let and const) introduce a "temporal dead zone" where a ReferenceError will be thrown with any attempt to access the variable before its declaration.

Rule Details

This rule will warn when it encounters a reference to an identifier that has not yet been declared.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-use-before-define: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

alert(a);
var a = 10;

f();
function f() {}

function g() {
    return b;
}
var b = 1;

// With blockBindings: true
{
    alert(c);
    let c = 1;
}

a = 10;

    c++;
}

• functions (boolean) - The flag which shows whether or not this rule checks function declarations. If this is true, this rule warns every reference to a function before the function declaration. Otherwise, ignores those references. Function declarations are hoisted, so it's safe. Default is true.
• classes (boolean) - The flag which shows whether or not this rule checks class declarations of upper scopes. If this is true, this rule warns every reference to a class before the class declaration. Otherwise, ignores those references if the declaration is in upper function scopes. Class declarations are not hoisted, so it might be danger. Default is true.
• variables (boolean) - This flag determines whether or not the rule checks variable declarations in upper scopes. If this is true, the rule warns every reference to a variable before the variable declaration. Otherwise, the rule ignores a reference if the declaration is in an upper scope, while still reporting the reference if it's in the same scope as the declaration. Default is true.

require let or const instead of var (no-var)

ECMAScript 6 allows programmers to create variables with block scope instead of function scope using the let and const keywords. Block scope is common in many other programming languages and helps programmers avoid mistakes such as:

var count = people.length;
var enoughFood = count > sandwiches.length;

if (enoughFood) {
    var count = sandwiches.length; // accidentally overriding the count variable
    console.log("We have " + count + " sandwiches for everyone. Plenty for all!");
}

// our count variable is no longer accurate
console.log("We have " + count + " people and " + sandwiches.length + " sandwiches!");

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at discouraging the use of var and encouraging the use of const or let instead.

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

var x = "y";
var CONFIG = {};

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint no-var: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

let x = "y";
const CONFIG = {};

When Not To Use It

In addition to non-ES6 environments, existing JavaScript projects that are beginning to introduce ES6 into their codebase may not want to apply this rule if the cost of migrating from var to let is too costly. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/
