Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

disallow unnecessary semicolons (no-extra-semi)
Typing mistakes and misunderstandings about where semicolons are required can lead to semicolons that are unnecessary. While not technically an error, extra semicolons can cause confusion when reading code.
Rule Details
This rule disallows unnecessary semicolons.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-extra-semi: "error"*/
var x = 5;;
function foo() {
// code
};
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint no-extra-semi: "error"*/
var x = 5;
var foo = function() {
// code
};
When Not To Use It
If you intentionally use extra semicolons then you can disable this rule.

Unexpected alert. Open

Disallow Use of Alert (no-alert)
JavaScript's alert
, confirm
, and prompt
functions are widely considered to be obtrusive as UI elements and should be replaced by a more appropriate custom UI implementation. Furthermore, alert
is often used while debugging code, which should be removed before deployment to production.
alert("here!");
Rule Details
This rule is aimed at catching debugging code that should be removed and popup UI elements that should be replaced with less obtrusive, custom UIs. As such, it will warn when it encounters alert
, prompt
, and confirm
function calls which are not shadowed.
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-alert: "error"*/
alert("here!");
confirm("Are you sure?");
prompt("What's your name?", "John Doe");
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint no-alert: "error"*/
customAlert("Something happened!");
customConfirm("Are you sure?");
customPrompt("Who are you?");
function foo() {
var alert = myCustomLib.customAlert;
alert();

disallow empty block statements (no-empty)
Empty block statements, while not technically errors, usually occur due to refactoring that wasn't completed. They can cause confusion when reading code.
Rule Details
This rule disallows empty block statements. This rule ignores block statements which contain a comment (for example, in an empty catch
or finally
block of a try
statement to indicate that execution should continue regardless of errors).
Examples of incorrect code for this rule:
/*eslint no-empty: "error"*/
if (foo) {
}
while (foo) {
}
switch(foo) {
}
try {
doSomething();
} catch(ex) {
} finally {
}
Examples of correct code for this rule:
/*eslint no-empty: "error"*/
if (foo) {
// empty
}
while (foo) {
/* empty */
}
try {
doSomething();
} catch (ex) {
// continue regardless of error
}
try {
doSomething();
} finally {
/* continue regardless of error */
}
Options
This rule has an object option for exceptions:
-
"allowEmptyCatch": true
allows emptycatch
clauses (that is, which do not contain a comment)
allowEmptyCatch
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the { "allowEmptyCatch": true }
option:
/* eslint no-empty: ["error", { "allowEmptyCatch": true }] */
try {
doSomething();
} catch (ex) {}
try {
doSomething();
}
catch (ex) {}
finally {
/* continue regardless of error */
}
When Not To Use It
If you intentionally use empty block statements then you can disable this rule.

Wrap an immediate function invocation in parentheses. Open
AC.Core.Timeout = function() {
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
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
.
outside
Examples of incorrect code for the default "outside"
option:
/*eslint wrap-iife: ["error", "outside"]*/
var x = function () { return { y: 1 };}(); // unwrapped
var x = (function () { return { y: 1 };})(); // wrapped function expression
Examples of correct code for the default "outside"
option:
/*eslint wrap-iife: ["error", "outside"]*/
var x = (function () { return { y: 1 };}()); // wrapped call expression
inside
Examples of incorrect code for the "inside"
option:
/*eslint wrap-iife: ["error", "inside"]*/
var x = function () { return { y: 1 };}(); // unwrapped
var x = (function () { return { y: 1 };}()); // wrapped call expression
Examples of correct code for the "inside"
option:
/*eslint wrap-iife: ["error", "inside"]*/
var x = (function () { return { y: 1 };})(); // wrapped function expression
any
Examples of incorrect code for the "any"
option:
/*eslint wrap-iife: ["error", "any"]*/
var x = function () { return { y: 1 };}(); // unwrapped
Examples of correct code for the "any"
option:
/*eslint wrap-iife: ["error", "any"]*/
var x = (function () { return { y: 1 };}()); // wrapped call expression
var x = (function () { return { y: 1 };})(); // wrapped function expression
functionPrototypeMethods
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "inside", { "functionPrototypeMethods": true }
options:
/* eslint wrap-iife: [2, "inside", { functionPrototypeMethods: true }] */
var x = function(){ foo(); }()
var x = (function(){ foo(); }())
var x = function(){ foo(); }.call(bar)
var x = (function(){ foo(); }.call(bar))
Examples of correct code for this rule with the "inside", { "functionPrototypeMethods": true }
options:
/* eslint wrap-iife: [2, "inside", { functionPrototypeMethods: true }] */
var x = (function(){ foo(); })()
var x = (function(){ foo(); }).call(bar)
