Limit Cyclomatic Complexity (complexity)
Cyclomatic complexity measures the number of linearly independent paths through a program's source code. This rule allows setting a cyclomatic complexity threshold.
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x; // 1st path
} else if (false) {
return x+1; // 2nd path
} else {
return 4; // 3rd path
}
}
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at reducing code complexity by capping the amount of cyclomatic complexity allowed in a program. As such, it will warn when the cyclomatic complexity crosses the configured threshold (default is 20
).
Examples of incorrect code for a maximum of 2:
/*eslint complexity: ["error", 2]*/
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x;
} else if (false) {
return x+1;
} else {
return 4; // 3rd path
}
}
Examples of correct code for a maximum of 2:
/*eslint complexity: ["error", 2]*/
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x;
} else {
return 4;
}
}
Options
Optionally, you may specify a max
object property:
"complexity": ["error", 2]
is equivalent to
"complexity": ["error", { "max": 2 }]
Deprecated: the object property maximum
is deprecated. Please use the property max
instead.
When Not To Use It
If you can't determine an appropriate complexity limit for your code, then it's best to disable this rule.

Limit Cyclomatic Complexity (complexity)
Cyclomatic complexity measures the number of linearly independent paths through a program's source code. This rule allows setting a cyclomatic complexity threshold.
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x; // 1st path
} else if (false) {
return x+1; // 2nd path
} else {
return 4; // 3rd path
}
}
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at reducing code complexity by capping the amount of cyclomatic complexity allowed in a program. As such, it will warn when the cyclomatic complexity crosses the configured threshold (default is 20
).
Examples of incorrect code for a maximum of 2:
/*eslint complexity: ["error", 2]*/
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x;
} else if (false) {
return x+1;
} else {
return 4; // 3rd path
}
}
Examples of correct code for a maximum of 2:
/*eslint complexity: ["error", 2]*/
function a(x) {
if (true) {
return x;
} else {
return 4;
}
}
Options
Optionally, you may specify a max
object property:
"complexity": ["error", 2]
is equivalent to
"complexity": ["error", { "max": 2 }]
Deprecated: the object property maximum
is deprecated. Please use the property max
instead.
When Not To Use It
If you can't determine an appropriate complexity limit for your code, then it's best to disable this rule.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
allow-null
Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Enforce Return After Callback (callback-return)
The callback pattern is at the heart of most I/O and event-driven programming in JavaScript.
function doSomething(err, callback) {
if (err) {
return callback(err);
}
callback();
}
To prevent calling the callback multiple times it is important to return
anytime the callback is triggered outside
of the main function body. Neglecting this technique often leads to issues where you do something more than once.
For example, in the case of an HTTP request, you may try to send HTTP headers more than once leading Node.js to throw
a Can't render headers after they are sent to the client.
error.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at ensuring that callbacks used outside of the main function block are always part-of or immediately
preceding a return
statement. This rule decides what is a callback based on the name of the function being called.
Options
The rule takes a single option - an array of possible callback names - which may include object methods. The default callback names are callback
, cb
, next
.
Default callback names
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default ["callback", "cb", "next"]
option:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
callback(err);
}
callback();
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default ["callback", "cb", "next"]
option:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
return callback(err);
}
callback();
}
Supplied callback names
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the option ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]
:
/*eslint callback-return: ["error", ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]]*/
function foo(err, done) {
if (err) {
done(err);
}
done();
}
function bar(err, send) {
if (err) {
send.error(err);
}
send.success();
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the option ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]
:
/*eslint callback-return: ["error", ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]]*/
function foo(err, done) {
if (err) {
return done(err);
}
done();
}
function bar(err, send) {
if (err) {
return send.error(err);
}
send.success();
}
Known Limitations
Because it is difficult to understand the meaning of a program through static analysis, this rule has limitations:
- false negatives when this rule reports correct code, but the program calls the callback more than one time (which is incorrect behavior)
- false positives when this rule reports incorrect code, but the program calls the callback only one time (which is correct behavior)
Passing the callback by reference
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback if it is an argument of a function (for example, setTimeout
).
Example of a false negative when this rule reports correct code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
setTimeout(callback, 0); // this is bad, but WILL NOT warn
}
callback();
}
Triggering the callback within a nested function
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback from within a nested function or an immediately-invoked function expression (IIFE).
Example of a false negative when this rule reports correct code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
process.nextTick(function() {
return callback(); // this is bad, but WILL NOT warn
});
}
callback();
}
If/else statements
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback only one time in each branch of an if
statement.
Example of a false positive when this rule reports incorrect code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
callback(err); // this is fine, but WILL warn
} else {
callback(); // this is fine, but WILL warn
}
}
When Not To Use It
There are some cases where you might want to call a callback function more than once. In those cases this rule may lead to incorrect behavior. In those cases you may want to reserve a special name for those callbacks and not include that in the list of callbacks that trigger warnings.

This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
allow-null
Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.

Enforce Return After Callback (callback-return)
The callback pattern is at the heart of most I/O and event-driven programming in JavaScript.
function doSomething(err, callback) {
if (err) {
return callback(err);
}
callback();
}
To prevent calling the callback multiple times it is important to return
anytime the callback is triggered outside
of the main function body. Neglecting this technique often leads to issues where you do something more than once.
For example, in the case of an HTTP request, you may try to send HTTP headers more than once leading Node.js to throw
a Can't render headers after they are sent to the client.
error.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at ensuring that callbacks used outside of the main function block are always part-of or immediately
preceding a return
statement. This rule decides what is a callback based on the name of the function being called.
Options
The rule takes a single option - an array of possible callback names - which may include object methods. The default callback names are callback
, cb
, next
.
Default callback names
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default ["callback", "cb", "next"]
option:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
callback(err);
}
callback();
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default ["callback", "cb", "next"]
option:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
return callback(err);
}
callback();
}
Supplied callback names
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the option ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]
:
/*eslint callback-return: ["error", ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]]*/
function foo(err, done) {
if (err) {
done(err);
}
done();
}
function bar(err, send) {
if (err) {
send.error(err);
}
send.success();
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the option ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]
:
/*eslint callback-return: ["error", ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]]*/
function foo(err, done) {
if (err) {
return done(err);
}
done();
}
function bar(err, send) {
if (err) {
return send.error(err);
}
send.success();
}
Known Limitations
Because it is difficult to understand the meaning of a program through static analysis, this rule has limitations:
- false negatives when this rule reports correct code, but the program calls the callback more than one time (which is incorrect behavior)
- false positives when this rule reports incorrect code, but the program calls the callback only one time (which is correct behavior)
Passing the callback by reference
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback if it is an argument of a function (for example, setTimeout
).
Example of a false negative when this rule reports correct code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
setTimeout(callback, 0); // this is bad, but WILL NOT warn
}
callback();
}
Triggering the callback within a nested function
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback from within a nested function or an immediately-invoked function expression (IIFE).
Example of a false negative when this rule reports correct code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
process.nextTick(function() {
return callback(); // this is bad, but WILL NOT warn
});
}
callback();
}
If/else statements
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback only one time in each branch of an if
statement.
Example of a false positive when this rule reports incorrect code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
callback(err); // this is fine, but WILL warn
} else {
callback(); // this is fine, but WILL warn
}
}
When Not To Use It
There are some cases where you might want to call a callback function more than once. In those cases this rule may lead to incorrect behavior. In those cases you may want to reserve a special name for those callbacks and not include that in the list of callbacks that trigger warnings.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).
Examples of incorrect code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/

f(0), {}
a && b()
a, b()
c = a, b;
a() && function namedFunctionInExpressionContext () {f();}
(function anIncompleteIIFE () {});
injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

"use asm"

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/

This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:

The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===

except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===

instead of their regular counterparts ==

The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }

option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options

The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:

a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/

Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0

literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -

smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/

c = a, b;
a() && function namedFunctionInExpressionContext () {f();}
(function anIncompleteIIFE () {});
injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).
Examples of incorrect code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:

injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

disallow confusing multiline expressions (no-unexpected-multiline)
Semicolons are usually optional in JavaScript, because of automatic semicolon insertion (ASI). You can require or disallow semicolons with the [semi](./semi.md) rule.
The rules for ASI are relatively straightforward: As once described by Isaac Schlueter, a newline character always ends a statement, just like a semicolon, except where one of the following is true:
- 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,
.) - The line is
--
or++
(in which case it will decrement/increment the next token.) - It is a
for()
,while()
,do
,if()
, orelse
, and there is no{
- The next line starts with
[
,(
,+
,*
,/
,-
,,
,.
, or some other binary operator that can only be found between two tokens in a single expression.
In the exceptions where a newline does not end a statement, a typing mistake to omit a semicolon causes two unrelated consecutive lines to be interpreted as one expression. Especially for a coding style without semicolons, readers might overlook the mistake. Although syntactically correct, the code might throw exceptions when it is executed.
Rule Details
This rule disallows confusing multiline expressions where a newline looks like it is ending a statement, but is not.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-unexpected-multiline: "error"*/
var foo = bar
(1 || 2).baz();
var hello = 'world'
[1, 2, 3].forEach(addNumber);
let x = function() {}
`hello`
let x = function() {}
x
`hello`
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint no-unexpected-multiline: "error"*/
var foo = bar;
(1 || 2).baz();
var foo = bar
;(1 || 2).baz()
var hello = 'world';
[1, 2, 3].forEach(addNumber);
var hello = 'world'
void [1, 2, 3].forEach(addNumber);
let x = function() {};
`hello`
let tag = function() {}
tag `hello`
When Not To Use It
You can turn this rule off if you are confident that you will not accidentally introduce code like this.
Note that the patterns considered problems are not flagged by the [semi](semi.md) rule.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/

bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'

Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:

foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-

: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -

-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:

do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
allow-null
Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.

This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/

This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).
Examples of incorrect code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/

f(0), {}
a && b()
a, b()
c = a, b;
a() && function namedFunctionInExpressionContext () {f();}
(function anIncompleteIIFE () {});
injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.

Disallow Null Comparisons (no-eq-null)
Comparing to null
without a type-checking operator (==
or !=
), can have unintended results as the comparison will evaluate to true when comparing to not just a null
, but also an undefined
value.
if (foo == null) {
bar();
}
Rule Details
The no-eq-null
rule aims reduce potential bug and unwanted behavior by ensuring that comparisons to null
only match null
, and not also undefined
. As such it will flag comparisons to null when using ==
and !=
.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-eq-null: "error"*/
if (foo == null) {
bar();
}
while (qux != null) {

This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
allow-null
Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options

The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===

in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"

Expected return with your callback function. Open

- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Enforce Return After Callback (callback-return)
The callback pattern is at the heart of most I/O and event-driven programming in JavaScript.
function doSomething(err, callback) {
if (err) {
return callback(err);
}
callback();
}
To prevent calling the callback multiple times it is important to return
anytime the callback is triggered outside
of the main function body. Neglecting this technique often leads to issues where you do something more than once.
For example, in the case of an HTTP request, you may try to send HTTP headers more than once leading Node.js to throw
a Can't render headers after they are sent to the client.
error.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at ensuring that callbacks used outside of the main function block are always part-of or immediately
preceding a return
statement. This rule decides what is a callback based on the name of the function being called.
Options
The rule takes a single option - an array of possible callback names - which may include object methods. The default callback names are callback
, cb
, next
.
Default callback names
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default ["callback", "cb", "next"]
option:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
callback(err);
}
callback();
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default ["callback", "cb", "next"]
option:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
return callback(err);
}
callback();
}
Supplied callback names
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the option ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]
:
/*eslint callback-return: ["error", ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]]*/
function foo(err, done) {
if (err) {
done(err);
}
done();
}
function bar(err, send) {
if (err) {
send.error(err);
}
send.success();
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the option ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]
:
/*eslint callback-return: ["error", ["done", "send.error", "send.success"]]*/
function foo(err, done) {
if (err) {
return done(err);
}
done();
}
function bar(err, send) {
if (err) {
return send.error(err);
}
send.success();
}
Known Limitations
Because it is difficult to understand the meaning of a program through static analysis, this rule has limitations:
- false negatives when this rule reports correct code, but the program calls the callback more than one time (which is incorrect behavior)
- false positives when this rule reports incorrect code, but the program calls the callback only one time (which is correct behavior)
Passing the callback by reference
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback if it is an argument of a function (for example, setTimeout
).
Example of a false negative when this rule reports correct code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
setTimeout(callback, 0); // this is bad, but WILL NOT warn
}
callback();
}
Triggering the callback within a nested function
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback from within a nested function or an immediately-invoked function expression (IIFE).
Example of a false negative when this rule reports correct code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
process.nextTick(function() {
return callback(); // this is bad, but WILL NOT warn
});
}
callback();
}
If/else statements
The static analysis of this rule does not detect that the program calls the callback only one time in each branch of an if
statement.
Example of a false positive when this rule reports incorrect code:
/*eslint callback-return: "error"*/
function foo(err, callback) {
if (err) {
callback(err); // this is fine, but WILL warn
} else {
callback(); // this is fine, but WILL warn
}
}
When Not To Use It
There are some cases where you might want to call a callback function more than once. In those cases this rule may lead to incorrect behavior. In those cases you may want to reserve a special name for those callbacks and not include that in the list of callbacks that trigger warnings.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/

if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options

Disallow Null Comparisons (no-eq-null)
Comparing to null
without a type-checking operator (==
or !=
), can have unintended results as the comparison will evaluate to true when comparing to not just a null
, but also an undefined
value.
if (foo == null) {
bar();
}
Rule Details
The no-eq-null
rule aims reduce potential bug and unwanted behavior by ensuring that comparisons to null
only match null
, and not also undefined
. As such it will flag comparisons to null when using ==
and !=
.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).
Examples of incorrect code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/

c = a, b;
a() && function namedFunctionInExpressionContext () {f();}
(function anIncompleteIIFE () {});
injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.

/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null

Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===

For instance, the following statements are all considered true

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).
Examples of incorrect code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/
0
if(0) 0

f(0), {}
a && b()
a, b()
c = a, b;
a() && function namedFunctionInExpressionContext () {f();}
(function anIncompleteIIFE () {});
injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.
"use strict";
"use asm"
"use stricter";
"use babel"
"any other strings like this in the prologue";

Disallow Null Comparisons (no-eq-null)
Comparing to null
without a type-checking operator (==
or !=
), can have unintended results as the comparison will evaluate to true when comparing to not just a null
, but also an undefined
value.
if (foo == null) {
bar();
}
Rule Details
The no-eq-null
rule aims reduce potential bug and unwanted behavior by ensuring that comparisons to null
only match null
, and not also undefined
. As such it will flag comparisons to null when using ==
and !=
.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-eq-null: "error"*/
if (foo == null) {
bar();
}
while (qux != null) {

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==

.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
allow-null
Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

Disallow Unused Expressions (no-unused-expressions)
An unused expression which has no effect on the state of the program indicates a logic error.
For example, n + 1;
is not a syntax error, but it might be a typing mistake where a programmer meant an assignment statement n += 1;
instead.
Rule Details
This rule aims to eliminate unused expressions which have no effect on the state of the program.
This rule does not apply to function calls or constructor calls with the new
operator, because they could have side effects on the state of the program.
var i = 0;
function increment() { i += 1; }
increment(); // return value is unused, but i changed as a side effect
var nThings = 0;
function Thing() { nThings += 1; }
new Thing(); // constructed object is unused, but nThings changed as a side effect
This rule does not apply to directives (which are in the form of literal string expressions such as "use strict";
at the beginning of a script, module, or function).
Sequence expressions (those using a comma, such as a = 1, b = 2
) are always considered unused unless their return value is assigned or used in a condition evaluation, or a function call is made with the sequence expression value.
Options
This rule, in its default state, does not require any arguments. If you would like to enable one or more of the following you may pass an object with the options set as follows:
-
allowShortCircuit
set totrue
will allow you to use short circuit evaluations in your expressions (Default:false
). -
allowTernary
set totrue
will enable you to use ternary operators in your expressions similarly to short circuit evaluations (Default:false
). -
allowTaggedTemplates
set totrue
will enable you to use tagged template literals in your expressions (Default:false
).
These options allow unused expressions only if all of the code paths either directly change the state (for example, assignment statement) or could have side effects (for example, function call).
Examples of incorrect code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/
0
if(0) 0
{0}
f(0), {}
a && b()
a, b()
c = a, b;
a() && function namedFunctionInExpressionContext () {f();}
(function anIncompleteIIFE () {});
injectGlobal`body{ color: red; }`
Note that one or more string expression statements (with or without semi-colons) will only be considered as unused if they are not in the beginning of a script, module, or function (alone and uninterrupted by other statements). Otherwise, they will be treated as part of a "directive prologue", a section potentially usable by JavaScript engines. This includes "strict mode" directives.
"use strict";
"use asm"
"use stricter";
"use babel"
"any other strings like this in the prologue";
Examples of correct code for the default { "allowShortCircuit": false, "allowTernary": false }
options:
/*eslint no-unused-expressions: "error"*/
{} // In this context, this is a block statement, not an object literal
{myLabel: someVar} // In this context, this is a block statement with a label and expression, not an object literal

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.

Require === and !== (eqeqeq)
It is considered good practice to use the type-safe equality operators ===
and !==
instead of their regular counterparts ==
and !=
.
The reason for this is that ==
and !=
do type coercion which follows the rather obscure Abstract Equality Comparison Algorithm.
For instance, the following statements are all considered true
:
[] == false
[] == ![]
3 == "03"
If one of those occurs in an innocent-looking statement such as a == b
the actual problem is very difficult to spot.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at eliminating the type-unsafe equality operators.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint eqeqeq: "error"*/
if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }
The --fix
option on the command line automatically fixes some problems reported by this rule. A problem is only fixed if one of the operands is a typeof
expression, or if both operands are literals with the same type.
Options
always
The "always"
option (default) enforces the use of ===
and !==
in every situation (except when you opt-in to more specific handling of null
[see below]).
Examples of incorrect code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
Examples of correct code for the "always"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "always"]*/
a === b
foo === true
bananas !== 1
value === undefined
typeof foo === 'undefined'
'hello' !== 'world'
0 === 0
true === true
foo === null
This rule optionally takes a second argument, which should be an object with the following supported properties:
-
"null"
: Customize how this rule treatsnull
literals. Possible values:-
always
(default) - Always use === or !==. -
never
- Never use === or !== withnull
. -
ignore
- Do not apply this rule tonull
.
-
smart
The "smart"
option enforces the use of ===
and !==
except for these cases:
- Comparing two literal values
- Evaluating the value of
typeof
- Comparing against
null
Examples of incorrect code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
// comparing two variables requires ===
a == b
// only one side is a literal
foo == true
bananas != 1
// comparing to undefined requires ===
value == undefined
Examples of correct code for the "smart"
option:
/*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/
typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true
foo == null
allow-null
Deprecated: Instead of using this option use "always" and pass a "null" option property with value "ignore". This will tell eslint to always enforce strict equality except when comparing with the null
literal.

When Not To Use It
If you don't want to enforce a style for using equality operators, then it's safe to disable this rule. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/
Use ‘===’ to compare with ‘null’. Open

- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
Disallow Null Comparisons (no-eq-null)
Comparing to null
without a type-checking operator (==
or !=
), can have unintended results as the comparison will evaluate to true when comparing to not just a null
, but also an undefined
value.
if (foo == null) {
bar();
}
Rule Details
The no-eq-null
rule aims reduce potential bug and unwanted behavior by ensuring that comparisons to null
only match null
, and not also undefined
. As such it will flag comparisons to null when using ==
and !=
.

/*eslint no-eq-null: "error"*/
if (foo == null) {

Require IIFEs to be Wrapped (wrap-iife)
You can immediately invoke function expressions, but not function declarations. A common technique to create an immediately-invoked function expression (IIFE) is to wrap a function declaration in parentheses. The opening parentheses causes the contained function to be parsed as an expression, rather than a declaration.
// function expression could be unwrapped
var x = function () { return { y: 1 };}();
// function declaration must be wrapped
function () { /* side effects */ }(); // SyntaxError
Rule Details

Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-

. -
"inside"

"any"
enforces always wrapping, but allows either style.
Object option:
-

Require IIFEs to be Wrapped (wrap-iife)
You can immediately invoke function expressions, but not function declarations. A common technique to create an immediately-invoked function expression (IIFE) is to wrap a function declaration in parentheses. The opening parentheses causes the contained function to be parsed as an expression, rather than a declaration.
// function expression could be unwrapped
var x = function () { return { y: 1 };}();
// function declaration must be wrapped
function () { /* side effects */ }(); // SyntaxError
Rule Details
This rule requires all immediately-invoked function expressions to be wrapped in parentheses.
Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-
"outside"
enforces always wrapping the call expression. The default is"outside"
. -
"inside"
enforces always wrapping the function expression. -
"any"
enforces always wrapping, but allows either style.
Object option:
-
"functionPrototypeMethods": true
additionally enforces wrapping function expressions invoked using.call
and.apply
. The default isfalse
.

Duplicated Code
Duplicated code can lead to software that is hard to understand and difficult to change. The Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle states:
Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.
When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).

We set useful threshold defaults for the languages we support but you may want to adjust these settings based on your project guidelines.
The threshold configuration represents the minimum mass a code block must have to be analyzed for duplication. The lower the threshold, the more fine-grained the comparison.
If the engine is too easily reporting duplication, try raising the threshold. If you suspect that the engine isn't catching enough duplication, try lowering the threshold. The best setting tends to differ from language to language.

Duplicated Code
Duplicated code can lead to software that is hard to understand and difficult to change. The Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle states:
Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.
When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).

When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).
Tuning
This issue has a mass of 49.
We set useful threshold defaults for the languages we support but you may want to adjust these settings based on your project guidelines.
The threshold configuration represents the minimum mass a code block must have to be analyzed for duplication. The lower the threshold, the more fine-grained the comparison.
If the engine is too easily reporting duplication, try raising the threshold. If you suspect that the engine isn't catching enough duplication, try lowering the threshold. The best setting tends to differ from language to language.
