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

Examples of correct code for this rule:

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.

Suggest using arrow functions as callbacks. (prefer-arrow-callback)
Arrow functions are suited to callbacks, because:
-
this
keywords in arrow functions bind to the upper scope's. - The notation of the arrow function is shorter than function expression's.
Rule Details
This rule is aimed to flag usage of function expressions in an argument list.
The following patterns are considered problems:
/*eslint prefer-arrow-callback: "error"*/
foo(function(a) { return a; });
foo(function() { return this.a; }.bind(this));
The following patterns are not considered problems:
/*eslint prefer-arrow-callback: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
foo(a => a);
foo(function*() { yield; });
// this is not a callback.
var foo = function foo(a) { return a; };
// using `this` without `.bind(this)`.
foo(function() { return this.a; });
// recursively.
foo(function bar(n) { return n && n + bar(n - 1); });
Options
This rule takes one optional argument, an object which is an options object.
allowNamedFunctions
This is a boolean
option and it is false
by default. When set to true
, the rule doesn't warn on named functions used as callbacks.
Examples of correct code for the { "allowNamedFunctions": true }
option:
/*eslint prefer-arrow-callback: ["error", { "allowNamedFunctions": true }]*/
foo(function bar() {});
allowUnboundThis
This is a boolean
option and it is true
by default. When set to false
, this option allows the use of this
without restriction and checks for dynamically assigned this
values such as when using Array.prototype.map
with a context
argument. Normally, the rule will flag the use of this
whenever a function does not use bind()
to specify the value of this
constantly.
Examples of incorrect code for the { "allowUnboundThis": false }
option:
/*eslint prefer-arrow-callback: ["error", { "allowUnboundThis": false }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
foo(function() { this.a; });
foo(function() { (() => this); });
someArray.map(function (itm) { return this.doSomething(itm); }, someObject);
When Not To Use It
This rule should not be used in ES3/5 environments.
In ES2015 (ES6) or later, if you don't want to be notified about function expressions in an argument list, you can safely disable this rule. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

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.

- Read upRead up

Require parens in arrow function arguments (arrow-parens)
Arrow functions can omit parentheses when they have exactly one parameter. In all other cases the parameter(s) must be wrapped in parentheses. This rule enforces the consistent use of parentheses in arrow functions.
Rule Details
This rule enforces parentheses around arrow function parameters regardless of arity. For example:
/*eslint-env es6*/
// Bad
a => {}
// Good
(a) => {}
Following this style will help you find arrow functions (=>
) which may be mistakenly included in a condition
when a comparison such as >=
was the intent.
/*eslint-env es6*/
// Bad
if (a => 2) {
}
// Good
if (a >= 2) {
}
The rule can also be configured to discourage the use of parens when they are not required:
/*eslint-env es6*/
// Bad
(a) => {}
// Good
a => {}
Options
This rule has a string option and an object one.
String options are:
-
"always"
(default) requires parens around arguments in all cases. -
"as-needed"
allows omitting parens when there is only one argument.
Object properties for variants of the "as-needed"
option:
-
"requireForBlockBody": true
modifies the as-needed rule in order to require parens if the function body is in an instructions block (surrounded by braces).
always
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "always"
option:
/*eslint arrow-parens: ["error", "always"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
a => {};
a => a;
a => {'\n'};
a.then(foo => {});
a.then(foo => a);
a(foo => { if (true) {} });
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "always"
option:
/*eslint arrow-parens: ["error", "always"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
() => {};
(a) => {};
(a) => a;
(a) => {'\n'}
a.then((foo) => {});
a.then((foo) => { if (true) {} });
If Statements
One of benefits of this option is that it prevents the incorrect use of arrow functions in conditionals:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var a = 1;
var b = 2;
// ...
if (a => b) {
console.log('bigger');
} else {
console.log('smaller');
}
// outputs 'bigger', not smaller as expected
The contents of the if
statement is an arrow function, not a comparison.
If the arrow function is intentional, it should be wrapped in parens to remove ambiguity.
/*eslint-env es6*/
var a = 1;
var b = 0;
// ...
if ((a) => b) {
console.log('truthy value returned');
} else {
console.log('falsey value returned');
}
// outputs 'truthy value returned'
The following is another example of this behavior:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, d = 4;
var f = a => b ? c: d;
// f = ?
f
is an arrow function which takes a
as an argument and returns the result of b ? c: d
.
This should be rewritten like so:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, d = 4;
var f = (a) => b ? c: d;
as-needed
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "as-needed"
option:
/*eslint arrow-parens: ["error", "as-needed"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
(a) => {};
(a) => a;
(a) => {'\n'};
a.then((foo) => {});
a.then((foo) => a);
a((foo) => { if (true) {} });
Examples of correct code for this rule with the "as-needed"
option:
/*eslint arrow-parens: ["error", "as-needed"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
() => {};
a => {};
a => a;
a => {'\n'};
a.then(foo => {});
a.then(foo => { if (true) {} });
(a, b, c) => a;
(a = 10) => a;
([a, b]) => a;
({a, b}) => a;
requireForBlockBody
Examples of incorrect code for the { "requireForBlockBody": true }
option:
/*eslint arrow-parens: [2, "as-needed", { "requireForBlockBody": true }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
(a) => a;
a => {};
a => {'\n'};
a.map((x) => x * x);
a.map(x => {
return x * x;
});
a.then(foo => {});
Examples of correct code for the { "requireForBlockBody": true }
option:
/*eslint arrow-parens: [2, "as-needed", { "requireForBlockBody": true }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
(a) => {};
(a) => {'\n'};
a => ({});
() => {};
a => a;
a.then((foo) => {});
a.then((foo) => { if (true) {} });
a((foo) => { if (true) {} });
(a, b, c) => a;
(a = 10) => a;
([a, b]) => a;
({a, b}) => a;

Missing trailing comma. Open
' from ' + chalk.cyan(host) + ' to ' + chalk.cyan(proxy) + '.'
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
require or disallow trailing commas (comma-dangle)
Trailing commas in object literals are valid according to the ECMAScript 5 (and ECMAScript 3!) spec. However, IE8 (when not in IE8 document mode) and below will throw an error when it encounters trailing commas in JavaScript.
var foo = {
bar: "baz",
qux: "quux",
};
Trailing commas simplify adding and removing items to objects and arrays, since only the lines you are modifying must be touched. Another argument in favor of trailing commas is that it improves the clarity of diffs when an item is added or removed from an object or array:
Less clear:
var foo = {
- bar: "baz",
- qux: "quux"
+ bar: "baz"
};
More clear:
var foo = {
bar: "baz",
- qux: "quux",
};
Rule Details
This rule enforces consistent use of trailing commas in object and array literals.
Options
This rule has a string option or an object option:
{
"comma-dangle": ["error", "never"],
// or
"comma-dangle": ["error", {
"arrays": "never",
"objects": "never",
"imports": "never",
"exports": "never",
"functions": "ignore",
}]
}
-
"never"
(default) disallows trailing commas -
"always"
requires trailing commas -
"always-multiline"
requires trailing commas when the last element or property is in a different line than the closing]
or}
and disallows trailing commas when the last element or property is on the same line as the closing]
or}
-
"only-multiline"
allows (but does not require) trailing commas when the last element or property is in a different line than the closing]
or}
and disallows trailing commas when the last element or property is on the same line as the closing]
or}
Trailing commas in function declarations and function calls are valid syntax since ECMAScript 2017; however, the string option does not check these situations for backwards compatibility.
You can also use an object option to configure this rule for each type of syntax.
Each of the following options can be set to "never"
, "always"
, "always-multiline"
, "only-multiline"
, or "ignore"
.
The default for each option is "never"
unless otherwise specified.
-
arrays
is for array literals and array patterns of destructuring. (e.g.let [a,] = [1,];
) -
objects
is for object literals and object patterns of destructuring. (e.g.let {a,} = {a: 1};
) -
imports
is for import declarations of ES Modules. (e.g.import {a,} from "foo";
) -
exports
is for export declarations of ES Modules. (e.g.export {a,};
) -
functions
is for function declarations and function calls. (e.g.(function(a,){ })(b,);
)
functions
is set to"ignore"
by default for consistency with the string option.

Suggest using template literals instead of string concatenation. (prefer-template)
In ES2015 (ES6), we can use template literals instead of string concatenation.
var str = "Hello, " + name + "!";
/*eslint-env es6*/
var str = `Hello, ${name}!`;
Rule Details
This rule is aimed to flag usage of +
operators with strings.
Examples
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint prefer-template: "error"*/
var str = "Hello, " + name + "!";
var str = "Time: " + (12 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint prefer-template: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var str = "Hello World!";
var str = `Hello, ${name}!`;
var str = `Time: ${12 * 60 * 60 * 1000}`;
// This is reported by `no-useless-concat`.
var str = "Hello, " + "World!";
When Not To Use It
This rule should not be used in ES3/5 environments.
In ES2015 (ES6) or later, if you don't want to be notified about string concatenation, you can safely disable this rule.

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.

Require Object Literal Shorthand Syntax (object-shorthand)
EcmaScript 6 provides a concise form for defining object literal methods and properties. This syntax can make defining complex object literals much cleaner.
Here are a few common examples using the ES5 syntax:
// properties
var foo = {
x: x,
y: y,
z: z,
};
// methods
var foo = {
a: function() {},
b: function() {}
};
Now here are ES6 equivalents:
/*eslint-env es6*/
// properties
var foo = {x, y, z};
// methods
var foo = {
a() {},
b() {}
};
Rule Details
This rule enforces the use of the shorthand syntax. This applies to all methods (including generators) defined in object literals and any properties defined where the key name matches name of the assigned variable.
Each of the following properties would warn:
/*eslint object-shorthand: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
w: function() {},
x: function *() {},
[y]: function() {},
z: z
};
In that case the expected syntax would have been:
/*eslint object-shorthand: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
w() {},
*x() {},
[y]() {},
z
};
This rule does not flag arrow functions inside of object literals. The following will not warn:
/*eslint object-shorthand: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
x: (y) => y
};
Options
The rule takes an option which specifies when it should be applied. It can be set to one of the following values:
-
"always"
(default) expects that the shorthand will be used whenever possible. -
"methods"
ensures the method shorthand is used (also applies to generators). -
"properties"
ensures the property shorthand is used (where the key and variable name match). -
"never"
ensures that no property or method shorthand is used in any object literal. -
"consistent"
ensures that either all shorthand or all longform will be used in an object literal. -
"consistent-as-needed"
ensures that either all shorthand or all longform will be used in an object literal, but ensures all shorthand whenever possible.
You can set the option in configuration like this:
{
"object-shorthand": ["error", "always"]
}
Additionally, the rule takes an optional object configuration:
-
"avoidQuotes": true
indicates that longform syntax is preferred whenever the object key is a string literal (default:false
). Note that this option can only be enabled when the string option is set to"always"
,"methods"
, or"properties"
. -
"ignoreConstructors": true
can be used to prevent the rule from reporting errors for constructor functions. (By default, the rule treats constructors the same way as other functions.) Note that this option can only be enabled when the string option is set to"always"
or"methods"
. -
"avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true
indicates that methods are preferred over explicit-return arrow functions for function properties. (By default, the rule allows either of these.) Note that this option can only be enabled when the string option is set to"always"
or"methods"
.

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

};

/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
foo: (bar, baz) => {
return bar + baz;
},
qux: (foobar) => {
return foobar * 2;
}
};
Example of correct code for this rule with the "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true }
option:
/*eslint object-shorthand: ["error", "always", { "avoidExplicitReturnArrows": true }]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
foo(bar, baz) {
return bar + baz;
},
qux: foobar => foobar * 2
};
Example of incorrect code for this rule with the "consistent"
option:
/*eslint object-shorthand: [2, "consistent"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
a,
b: "foo",
};
Examples of correct code for this rule with the "consistent"
option:
/*eslint object-shorthand: [2, "consistent"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
a: a,
b: "foo"
};
var bar = {
a,
b,
};
Example of incorrect code with the "consistent-as-needed"
option, which is very similar to "consistent"
:
/*eslint object-shorthand: [2, "consistent-as-needed"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var foo = {
a: a,
b: b,
};
When Not To Use It
Anyone not yet in an ES6 environment would not want to apply this rule. Others may find the terseness of the shorthand syntax harder to read and may not want to encourage it with this rule.

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() {};
(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.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "as-needed"
option:
/*eslint func-names: ["error", "as-needed"]*/
Foo.prototype.bar = function() {};
(function() {
// ...
}())
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "as-needed"
option:
/*eslint func-names: ["error", "as-needed"]*/
var bar = function() {};
(function bar() {
// ...
}())

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "never"
option:
/*eslint func-names: ["error", "never"]*/
Foo.prototype.bar = function bar() {};
(function bar() {
// ...
}())
