require let
or const
instead of var
(no-var)
ECMAScript 6 allows programmers to create variables with block scope instead of function scope using the let
and const
keywords. Block scope is common in many other programming languages and helps programmers avoid mistakes
such as:
var count = people.length;
var enoughFood = count > sandwiches.length;
if (enoughFood) {
var count = sandwiches.length; // accidentally overriding the count variable
console.log("We have " + count + " sandwiches for everyone. Plenty for all!");
}
// our count variable is no longer accurate
console.log("We have " + count + " people and " + sandwiches.length + " sandwiches!");
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at discouraging the use of var
and encouraging the use of const
or let
instead.
Examples

When Not To Use It
In addition to non-ES6 environments, existing JavaScript projects that are beginning to introduce ES6 into their
codebase may not want to apply this rule if the cost of migrating from var
to let
is too costly.

Require Variable Declarations to be at the top of their scope (vars-on-top)
The vars-on-top
rule generates warnings when variable declarations are not used serially at the top of a function scope or the top of a program.

This rule forces the programmer to represent that behaviour by manually moving the variable declaration to the top of its containing scope.
Rule Details

Require or disallow named function
expressions (func-names)
A pattern that's becoming more common is to give function expressions names to aid in debugging. For example:
Foo.prototype.bar = function bar() {};
Adding the second bar
in the above example is optional. If you leave off the function name then when the function throws an exception you are likely to get something similar to anonymous function
in the stack trace. If you provide the optional name for a function expression then you will get the name of the function expression in the stack trace.
Rule Details
This rule can enforce or disallow the use of named function expressions.
Options
This rule has a string option:
-
"always"
(default) requires function expressions to have a name -
"as-needed"
requires function expressions to have a name, if the name cannot be assigned automatically in an ES6 environment -
"never"
disallows named function expressions, except in recursive functions, where a name is needed
always
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "always"
option:
/*eslint func-names: ["error", "always"]*/
Foo.prototype.bar = function() {};

// ...
}())
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "always"
option:
/*eslint func-names: ["error", "always"]*/
Foo.prototype.bar = function bar() {};
(function bar() {
// ...
}())
as-needed
ECMAScript 6 introduced a name
property on all functions. The value of name
is determined by evaluating the code around the function to see if a name can be inferred. For example, a function assigned to a variable will automatically have a name
property equal to the name of the variable. The value of name
is then used in stack traces for easier debugging.

option:
/*eslint func-names: ["error", "as-needed"]*/

Missing space before function parentheses. Open

Require or disallow a space before function parenthesis (space-before-function-paren)
When formatting a function, whitespace is allowed between the function name or function
keyword and the opening paren. Named functions also require a space between the function
keyword and the function name, but anonymous functions require no whitespace. For example:
function withoutSpace(x) {
// ...
}
function withSpace (x) {
// ...
}
var anonymousWithoutSpace = function() {};
var anonymousWithSpace = function () {};
Style guides may require a space after the function
keyword for anonymous functions, while others specify no whitespace. Similarly, the space after a function name may or may not be required.
Rule Details
This rule aims to enforce consistent spacing before function parentheses and as such, will warn whenever whitespace doesn't match the preferences specified.
Options
This rule has a string option or an object option:
{
"space-before-function-paren": ["error", "always"],
// or
"space-before-function-paren": ["error", {
"anonymous": "always",
"named": "always",
"asyncArrow": "ignore"
}],
}
-
always
(default) requires a space followed by the(
of arguments. -
never
disallows any space followed by the(
of arguments.
The string option does not check async arrow function expressions for backward compatibility.
You can also use a separate option for each type of function.
Each of the following options can be set to "always"
, "never"
, or "ignore"
.
Default is "always"
basically.
-
anonymous
is for anonymous function expressions (e.g.function () {}
). -
named
is for named function expressions (e.g.function foo () {}
). -
asyncArrow
is for async arrow function expressions (e.g.async () => {}
).asyncArrow
is set to"ignore"
by default for backwards compatibility.

disallow the use of console
(no-console)
In JavaScript that is designed to be executed in the browser, it's considered a best practice to avoid using methods on console
. Such messages are considered to be for debugging purposes and therefore not suitable to ship to the client. In general, calls using console
should be stripped before being pushed to production.
console.log("Made it here.");
console.error("That shouldn't have happened.");
Rule Details
This rule disallows calls to methods of the console
object.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-console: "error"*/
console.log("Log a debug level message.");
console.warn("Log a warn level message.");
console.error("Log an error level message.");
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint no-console: "error"*/
// custom console
Console.log("Hello world!");
Options
This rule has an object option for exceptions:
-
"allow"
has an array of strings which are allowed methods of theconsole
object
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with a sample { "allow": ["warn", "error"] }
option:
/*eslint no-console: ["error", { allow: ["warn", "error"] }] */
console.warn("Log a warn level message.");
console.error("Log an error level message.");
When Not To Use It
If you're using Node.js, however, console
is used to output information to the user and so is not strictly used for debugging purposes. If you are developing for Node.js then you most likely do not want this rule enabled.

Require Variable Declarations to be at the top of their scope (vars-on-top)
The vars-on-top
rule generates warnings when variable declarations are not used serially at the top of a function scope or the top of a program.
By default variable declarations are always moved (“hoisted”) invisibly to the top of their containing scope by the JavaScript interpreter.
This rule forces the programmer to represent that behaviour by manually moving the variable declaration to the top of its containing scope.
Rule Details
This rule aims to keep all variable declarations in the leading series of statements. Allowing multiple declarations helps promote maintainability and is thus allowed.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
// Variable declarations in a block:
function doSomething() {
var first;
if (true) {
first = true;
}
var second;
}
// Variable declaration in for initializer:
function doSomething() {
for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {}
}
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
// Variables after other statements:

var a;

Rule Details
This rule is aimed at discouraging the use of var
and encouraging the use of const
or let
instead.
Examples
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-var: "error"*/
var x = "y";
var CONFIG = {};
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint no-var: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
let x = "y";
const CONFIG = {};
When Not To Use It
In addition to non-ES6 environments, existing JavaScript projects that are beginning to introduce ES6 into their
codebase may not want to apply this rule if the cost of migrating from var
to let
is too costly.

Require Variable Declarations to be at the top of their scope (vars-on-top)
The vars-on-top
rule generates warnings when variable declarations are not used serially at the top of a function scope or the top of a program.
By default variable declarations are always moved (“hoisted”) invisibly to the top of their containing scope by the JavaScript interpreter.
This rule forces the programmer to represent that behaviour by manually moving the variable declaration to the top of its containing scope.
Rule Details
This rule aims to keep all variable declarations in the leading series of statements. Allowing multiple declarations helps promote maintainability and is thus allowed.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
// Variable declarations in a block:
function doSomething() {
var first;
if (true) {
first = true;
}
var second;
}
// Variable declaration in for initializer:
function doSomething() {
for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {}
}
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
// Variables after other statements:
f();
var a;
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
function doSomething() {
var first;
var second; //multiple declarations are allowed at the top
if (true) {
first = true;
}
}
function doSomething() {
var i;
for (i=0; i<10; i++) {}
}
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
var a;
f();
/*eslint vars-on-top: "error"*/
// Directives may precede variable declarations.
"use strict";
var a;
f();
// Comments can describe variables.
function doSomething() {
// this is the first var.
var first;
// this is the second var.
var second
}
