enforce a maximum line length (max-len)

Very long lines of code in any language can be difficult to read. In order to aid in readability and maintainability many coders have developed a convention to limit lines of code to X number of characters (traditionally 80 characters).

var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }, "difficult": "to read" }; // very long

Rule Details

This rule enforces a maximum line length to increase code readability and maintainability. The length of a line is defined as the number of Unicode characters in the line.

Options

This rule has a number or object option:

• "code" (default 80) enforces a maximum line length
• "tabWidth" (default 4) specifies the character width for tab characters
• "comments" enforces a maximum line length for comments; defaults to value of code
• "ignorePattern" ignores lines matching a regular expression; can only match a single line and need to be double escaped when written in YAML or JSON
• "ignoreComments": true ignores all trailing comments and comments on their own line
• "ignoreTrailingComments": true ignores only trailing comments
• "ignoreUrls": true ignores lines that contain a URL
• "ignoreStrings": true ignores lines that contain a double-quoted or single-quoted string
• "ignoreTemplateLiterals": true ignores lines that contain a template literal
• "ignoreRegExpLiterals": true ignores lines that contain a RegExp literal

code

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default { "code": 80 } option:

/*eslint max-len: ["error", 80]*/

var foo = { "bar": "This is a bar.", "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" }, "difficult": "to read" };

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default { "code": 80 } option:

var foo = {
  "bar": "This is a bar.",
  "baz": { "qux": "This is a qux" },
  "easier": "to read"
};

tabWidth

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"

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

This rule has an object option:

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

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

call({
    foobar: 42,
    bat   : 2 * 2
});

align

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

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

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

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

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

align and multiLine

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

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

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

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

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

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

/*eslint key-spacing: ["error", {
    "multiLine": {
        "beforeColon": false,
        "afterColon":true
    },
    "align": {
        "beforeColon": true,
        "afterColon": true,
        "on": "colon"
    }
}]*/

var obj = {
    "myObjectFunction": function() {
        // Do something
    },
    "one"             : 1,
    "seven"           : 7

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

    }

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

singleLine and multiLine

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

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

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

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

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

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

Examples of correct code for this rule:

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

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

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

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

var a;
f();

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

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

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint-env es6*/

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

When Not To Use It

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

require or disallow semicolons instead of ASI (semi)

JavaScript is unique amongst the C-like languages in that it doesn't require semicolons at the end of each statement. In many cases, the JavaScript engine can determine that a semicolon should be in a certain spot and will automatically add it. This feature is known as automatic semicolon insertion (ASI) and is considered one of the more controversial features of JavaScript. For example, the following lines are both valid:

var name = "ESLint"
var website = "eslint.org";

On the first line, the JavaScript engine will automatically insert a semicolon, so this is not considered a syntax error. The JavaScript engine still knows how to interpret the line and knows that the line end indicates the end of the statement.

In the debate over ASI, there are generally two schools of thought. The first is that we should treat ASI as if it didn't exist and always include semicolons manually. The rationale is that it's easier to always include semicolons than to try to remember when they are or are not required, and thus decreases the possibility of introducing an error.

However, the ASI mechanism can sometimes be tricky to people who are using semicolons. For example, consider this code:

return
{
    name: "ESLint"
};

This may look like a return statement that returns an object literal, however, the JavaScript engine will interpret this code as:

return;
{
    name: "ESLint";
}

Effectively, a semicolon is inserted after the return statement, causing the code below it (a labeled literal inside a block) to be unreachable. This rule and the [no-unreachable](no-unreachable.md) rule will protect your code from such cases.

On the other side of the argument are those who says that since semicolons are inserted automatically, they are optional and do not need to be inserted manually. However, the ASI mechanism can also be tricky to people who don't use semicolons. For example, consider this code:

var globalCounter = { }

(function () {
    var n = 0
    globalCounter.increment = function () {
        return ++n
    }
})()

In this example, a semicolon will not be inserted after the first line, causing a run-time error (because an empty object is called as if it's a function). The [no-unexpected-multiline](no-unexpected-multiline.md) rule can protect your code from such cases.

Although ASI allows for more freedom over your coding style, it can also make your code behave in an unexpected way, whether you use semicolons or not. Therefore, it is best to know when ASI takes place and when it does not, and have ESLint protect your code from these potentially unexpected cases. In short, as once described by Isaac Schlueter, a \n character always ends a statement (just like a semicolon) unless one of the following is true:

1. 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 ,.)
2. The line is -- or ++ (in which case it will decrement/increment the next token.)
3. It is a for(), while(), do, if(), or else, and there is no {
4. The next line starts with [, (, +, *, /, -, ,, ., or some other binary operator that can only be found between two tokens in a single expression.

Rule Details

This rule enforces consistent use of semicolons.

Options

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

String option:

• "always" (default) requires semicolons at the end of statements
• "never" disallows semicolons as the end of statements (except to disambiguate statements beginning with [, (, /, +, or -)

Object option:

• "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true ignores the last semicolon in a block in which its braces (and therefore the content of the block) are in the same line

always

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

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

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

/*eslint semi: "error"*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

never

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "never" option:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

Examples of correct code for this rule with the "never" option:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

var name = "ESLint"

;(function() {
    // ...
})()

omitLastInOneLineBlock

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

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}] */

if (foo) { bar() }

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

When Not To Use It

If you do not want to enforce semicolon usage (or omission) in any particular way, then you can turn this rule off.

• "align" with an object value allows for fine-grained spacing when values are being aligned in object literals.
• "singleLine" specifies a spacing style for single-line object literals.
• "multiLine" specifies a spacing style for multi-line object literals.

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

align and multiLine

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

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

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

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

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

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

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

There are two schools of thought in this regard:

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

For instance:

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

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

String option:

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

Object option:

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

Alternate object option:

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

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

last

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1
,
bar = 2;

var foo = 1
  , bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
           , "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

first

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1
    ,bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
          ,"oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},
    a = [];

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

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.

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.

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

This rule has an object option:

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

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

});

align

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

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

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

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

    }
}]*/

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

align and multiLine

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

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

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

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

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

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

/*eslint key-spacing: ["error", {
    "multiLine": {
        "beforeColon": false,
        "afterColon":true
    },
    "align": {
        "beforeColon": true,
        "afterColon": true,
        "on": "colon"
    }
}]*/

var obj = {
    "myObjectFunction": function() {
        // Do something
    },
    "one"             : 1,
    "seven"           : 7

    },
    "align": {
        "beforeColon": true,
        "afterColon": true,
        "on": "colon"
    }
}]*/

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

singleLine and multiLine

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

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

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

last

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1
,
bar = 2;

var foo = 1
  , bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
           , "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

first

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1
    ,bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
          ,"oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},
    a = [];

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

require or disallow semicolons instead of ASI (semi)

JavaScript is unique amongst the C-like languages in that it doesn't require semicolons at the end of each statement. In many cases, the JavaScript engine can determine that a semicolon should be in a certain spot and will automatically add it. This feature is known as automatic semicolon insertion (ASI) and is considered one of the more controversial features of JavaScript. For example, the following lines are both valid:

var name = "ESLint"
var website = "eslint.org";

On the first line, the JavaScript engine will automatically insert a semicolon, so this is not considered a syntax error. The JavaScript engine still knows how to interpret the line and knows that the line end indicates the end of the statement.

In the debate over ASI, there are generally two schools of thought. The first is that we should treat ASI as if it didn't exist and always include semicolons manually. The rationale is that it's easier to always include semicolons than to try to remember when they are or are not required, and thus decreases the possibility of introducing an error.

However, the ASI mechanism can sometimes be tricky to people who are using semicolons. For example, consider this code:

return
{
    name: "ESLint"
};

This may look like a return statement that returns an object literal, however, the JavaScript engine will interpret this code as:

return;
{
    name: "ESLint";
}

Effectively, a semicolon is inserted after the return statement, causing the code below it (a labeled literal inside a block) to be unreachable. This rule and the [no-unreachable](no-unreachable.md) rule will protect your code from such cases.

On the other side of the argument are those who says that since semicolons are inserted automatically, they are optional and do not need to be inserted manually. However, the ASI mechanism can also be tricky to people who don't use semicolons. For example, consider this code:

var globalCounter = { }

(function () {
    var n = 0
    globalCounter.increment = function () {
        return ++n
    }
})()

In this example, a semicolon will not be inserted after the first line, causing a run-time error (because an empty object is called as if it's a function). The [no-unexpected-multiline](no-unexpected-multiline.md) rule can protect your code from such cases.

Although ASI allows for more freedom over your coding style, it can also make your code behave in an unexpected way, whether you use semicolons or not. Therefore, it is best to know when ASI takes place and when it does not, and have ESLint protect your code from these potentially unexpected cases. In short, as once described by Isaac Schlueter, a \n character always ends a statement (just like a semicolon) unless one of the following is true:

1. 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 ,.)
2. The line is -- or ++ (in which case it will decrement/increment the next token.)
3. It is a for(), while(), do, if(), or else, and there is no {
4. The next line starts with [, (, +, *, /, -, ,, ., or some other binary operator that can only be found between two tokens in a single expression.

Rule Details

This rule enforces consistent use of semicolons.

Options

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

String option:

• "always" (default) requires semicolons at the end of statements
• "never" disallows semicolons as the end of statements (except to disambiguate statements beginning with [, (, /, +, or -)

Object option:

• "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true ignores the last semicolon in a block in which its braces (and therefore the content of the block) are in the same line

always

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

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

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

/*eslint semi: "error"*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

never

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "never" option:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint";

object.method = function() {
    // ...
};

Examples of correct code for this rule with the "never" option:

/*eslint semi: ["error", "never"]*/

var name = "ESLint"

object.method = function() {
    // ...
}

var name = "ESLint"

;(function() {
    // ...
})()

omitLastInOneLineBlock

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

/*eslint semi: ["error", "always", { "omitLastInOneLineBlock": true}] */

if (foo) { bar() }

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.

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

last

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

  , bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
           , "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {

        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1
    ,bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
          ,"oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},
    a = [];

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

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

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

There are two schools of thought in this regard:

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

For instance:

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

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

String option:

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

Object option:

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

Alternate object option:

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

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},
    a = [];

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

This rule has an object option:

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

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

align

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

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

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

align and multiLine

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

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

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

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

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

Disallow mixes of different operators (no-mixed-operators)

Enclosing complex expressions by parentheses clarifies the developer's intention, which makes the code more readable. This rule warns when different operators are used consecutively without parentheses in an expression.

var foo = a && b || c || d;    /*BAD: Unexpected mix of '&&' and '||'.*/
var foo = (a && b) || c || d;  /*GOOD*/
var foo = a && (b || c || d);  /*GOOD*/

Rule Details

This rule checks BinaryExpression and LogicalExpression.

This rule may conflict with [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule. If you use both this and [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule together, you need to use the nestedBinaryExpressions option of [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: "error"*/

var foo = a && b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a + b * c;

Examples of correct code for this rule:

This rule has 2 options.

• groups (string[][]) - specifies groups to compare operators. When this rule compares two operators, if both operators are included in a same group, this rule checks it. Otherwise, this rule ignores it. This value is a list of groups. The group is a list of binary operators. Default is the groups for each kind of operators.
• allowSamePrecedence (boolean) - specifies to allow mix of 2 operators if those have the same precedence. Default is true.

groups

The following operators can be used in groups option:

• Arithmetic Operators: "+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "**"
• Bitwise Operators: "&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"
• Comparison Operators: "==", "!=", "===", "!==", ">", ">=", "<", "<="
• Logical Operators: "&&", "||"
• Relational Operators: "in", "instanceof"

Now, considers about {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} configure. This configure has 2 groups: bitwise operators and logical operators. This rule checks only if both operators are included in a same group. So, in this case, this rule comes to check between bitwise operators and between logical operators. This rule ignores other operators.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} option:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]}]*/

var foo = a && b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a & b | c;

var foo = (a & b) | c;
var foo = a & (b | c);
var foo = a + b * c;
var foo = a + (b * c);
var foo = (a + b) * c;

allowSamePrecedence

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

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"allowSamePrecedence": true}]*/

// + and - have the same precedence.
var foo = a + b - c;

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with {"allowSamePrecedence": false} option:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"allowSamePrecedence": false}]*/

// + and - have the same precedence.

Require Dot Notation (dot-notation)

In JavaScript, one can access properties using the dot notation (foo.bar) or square-bracket notation (foo["bar"]). However, the dot notation is often preferred because it is easier to read, less verbose, and works better with aggressive JavaScript minimizers.

foo["bar"];

Rule Details

This rule is aimed at maintaining code consistency and improving code readability by encouraging use of the dot notation style whenever possible. As such, it will warn when it encounters an unnecessary use of square-bracket notation.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint dot-notation: "error"*/

var x = foo["bar"];

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint dot-notation: "error"*/

var x = foo.bar;

var x = foo[bar];    // Property name is a variable, square-bracket notation required

Options

This rule accepts a single options argument:

• Set the allowKeywords option to false (default is true) to follow ECMAScript version 3 compatible style, avoiding dot notation for reserved word properties.
• Set the allowPattern option to a regular expression string to allow bracket notation for property names that match a pattern (by default, no pattern is tested).

allowKeywords

Examples of correct code for the { "allowKeywords": false } option:

/*eslint dot-notation: ["error", { "allowKeywords": false }]*/

var foo = { "class": "CS 101" }
var x = foo["class"]; // Property name is a reserved word, square-bracket notation required

allowPattern

For example, when preparing data to be sent to an external API, it is often required to use property names that include underscores. If the camelcase rule is in effect, these snake case properties would not be allowed. By providing an allowPattern to the dot-notation rule, these snake case properties can be accessed with bracket notation.

Examples of correct code for the sample { "allowPattern": "^[a-z]+(_[a-z]+)+$" } option:

/*eslint camelcase: "error"*/
/*eslint dot-notation: ["error", { "allowPattern": "^[a-z]+(_[a-z]+)+$" }]*/

var data = {};
data.foo_bar = 42;

var data = {};
data["fooBar"] = 42;

var data = {};
data["foo_bar"] = 42; // no warning

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

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 mixes of different operators (no-mixed-operators)

Enclosing complex expressions by parentheses clarifies the developer's intention, which makes the code more readable. This rule warns when different operators are used consecutively without parentheses in an expression.

var foo = a && b || c || d;    /*BAD: Unexpected mix of '&&' and '||'.*/
var foo = (a && b) || c || d;  /*GOOD*/
var foo = a && (b || c || d);  /*GOOD*/

This rule checks BinaryExpression and LogicalExpression.

This rule may conflict with [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule. If you use both this and [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule together, you need to use the nestedBinaryExpressions option of [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule.

}

This rule has 2 options.

• groups (string[][]) - specifies groups to compare operators. When this rule compares two operators, if both operators are included in a same group, this rule checks it. Otherwise, this rule ignores it. This value is a list of groups. The group is a list of binary operators. Default is the groups for each kind of operators.
• allowSamePrecedence (boolean) - specifies to allow mix of 2 operators if those have the same precedence. Default is true.

groups

The following operators can be used in groups option:

• Arithmetic Operators: "+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "**"
• Bitwise Operators: "&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"
• Comparison Operators: "==", "!=", "===", "!==", ">", ">=", "<", "<="
• Logical Operators: "&&", "||"
• Relational Operators: "in", "instanceof"

Now, considers about {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} configure. This configure has 2 groups: bitwise operators and logical operators. This rule checks only if both operators are included in a same group. So, in this case, this rule comes to check between bitwise operators and between logical operators. This rule ignores other operators.

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

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

There are two schools of thought in this regard:

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

For instance:

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

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

String option:

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

Object option:

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

Alternate object option:

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

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.

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) {

require quotes around object literal property names (quote-props)

Object literal property names can be defined in two ways: using literals or using strings. For example, these two objects are equivalent:

var object1 = {
    property: true
};

var object2 = {
    "property": true
};

In many cases, it doesn't matter if you choose to use an identifier instead of a string or vice-versa. Even so, you might decide to enforce a consistent style in your code.

There are, however, some occasions when you must use quotes:

1. If you are using an ECMAScript 3 JavaScript engine (such as IE8) and you want to use a keyword (such as if) as a property name. This restriction was removed in ECMAScript 5.
2. You want to use a non-identifier character in your property name, such as having a property with a space like "one two".

Another example where quotes do matter is when using numeric literals as property keys:

var object = {
    1e2: 1,
    100: 2
};

This may look alright at first sight, but this code in fact throws a syntax error in ECMAScript 5 strict mode. This happens because 1e2 and 100 are coerced into strings before getting used as the property name. Both String(1e2) and String(100) happen to be equal to "100", which causes the "Duplicate data property in object literal not allowed in strict mode" error. Issues like that can be tricky to debug, so some prefer to require quotes around all property names.

Rule Details

This rule requires quotes around object literal property names.

Options

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

String option:

• "always" (default) requires quotes around all object literal property names
• "as-needed" disallows quotes around object literal property names that are not strictly required
• "consistent" enforces a consistent quote style requires quotes around object literal property names
• "consistent-as-needed" requires quotes around all object literal property names if any name strictly requires quotes, otherwise disallows quotes around object property names

Object option:

• "keywords": true requires quotes around language keywords used as object property names (only applies when using as-needed or consistent-as-needed)
• "unnecessary": true (default) disallows quotes around object literal property names that are not strictly required (only applies when using as-needed)
• "unnecessary": false allows quotes around object literal property names that are not strictly required (only applies when using as-needed)
• "numbers": true requires quotes around numbers used as object property names (only applies when using as-needed)

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

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.

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

Disallow mixes of different operators (no-mixed-operators)

Enclosing complex expressions by parentheses clarifies the developer's intention, which makes the code more readable. This rule warns when different operators are used consecutively without parentheses in an expression.

var foo = a && b || c || d;    /*BAD: Unexpected mix of '&&' and '||'.*/
var foo = (a && b) || c || d;  /*GOOD*/
var foo = a && (b || c || d);  /*GOOD*/

Rule Details

This rule checks BinaryExpression and LogicalExpression.

This rule may conflict with [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule. If you use both this and [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule together, you need to use the nestedBinaryExpressions option of [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: "error"*/

var foo = a && b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a + b * c;

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: "error"*/

var foo = a || b || c;
var foo = a && b && c;
var foo = (a && b < 0) || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a && (b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0);
var foo = a + (b * c);
var foo = (a + b) * c;

Options

{
    "no-mixed-operators": [
        "error",
        {
            "groups": [
                ["+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "**"],
                ["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"],
                ["==", "!=", "===", "!==", ">", ">=", "<", "<="],

                ["in", "instanceof"]
            ],
            "allowSamePrecedence": true
        }
    ]
}

This rule has 2 options.

• groups (string[][]) - specifies groups to compare operators. When this rule compares two operators, if both operators are included in a same group, this rule checks it. Otherwise, this rule ignores it. This value is a list of groups. The group is a list of binary operators. Default is the groups for each kind of operators.
• allowSamePrecedence (boolean) - specifies to allow mix of 2 operators if those have the same precedence. Default is true.

groups

The following operators can be used in groups option:

• Arithmetic Operators: "+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "**"
• Bitwise Operators: "&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"
• Comparison Operators: "==", "!=", "===", "!==", ">", ">=", "<", "<="
• Logical Operators: "&&", "||"
• Relational Operators: "in", "instanceof"

Now, considers about {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} configure. This configure has 2 groups: bitwise operators and logical operators. This rule checks only if both operators are included in a same group. So, in this case, this rule comes to check between bitwise operators and between logical operators. This rule ignores other operators.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} option:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]}]*/

var foo = a && b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a & b | c;

var foo = a || b > 0 || c + 1 === 0;
var foo = a && b > 0 && c + 1 === 0;
var foo = (a && b < 0) || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a && (b < 0 ||  c > 0 || d + 1 === 0);
var foo = (a & b) | c;
var foo = a & (b | c);
var foo = a + b * c;
var foo = a + (b * c);
var foo = (a + b) * c;

allowSamePrecedence

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

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"allowSamePrecedence": true}]*/

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with {"allowSamePrecedence": false} option:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"allowSamePrecedence": false}]*/

// + and - have the same precedence.
var foo = a + b - c;

When Not To Use It

If you don't want to be notified about mixed operators, then it's safe to disable this rule.

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 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.

}

• 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.

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

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

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

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

Examples of correct code for this rule:

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

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

When Not To Use It

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

enforce consistent indentation (indent)

There are several common guidelines which require specific indentation of nested blocks and statements, like:

function hello(indentSize, type) {
    if (indentSize === 4 && type !== 'tab') {
        console.log('Each next indentation will increase on 4 spaces');
    }
}

These are the most common scenarios recommended in different style guides:

• Two spaces, not longer and no tabs: Google, npm, Node.js, Idiomatic, Felix
• Tabs: jQuery
• Four spaces: Crockford

Rule Details

This rule enforces a consistent indentation style. The default style is 4 spaces.

Options

This rule has a mixed option:

For example, for 2-space indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", 2]
}

Or for tabbed indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", "tab"]
}

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
  b=c;
  function foo(d) {
    e=f;
  }
}

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
    b=c;
    function foo(d) {
        e=f;
    }
}

This rule has an object option:

• "SwitchCase" (default: 0) enforces indentation level for case clauses in switch statements
• "VariableDeclarator" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for var declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules for var, let and const declarations.
• "outerIIFEBody" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for file-level IIFEs.
• "MemberExpression" (off by default) enforces indentation level for multi-line property chains (except in variable declarations and assignments)
• "FunctionDeclaration" takes an object to define rules for function declarations.
  • parameters (off by default) enforces indentation level for parameters in a function declaration. This can either be a number indicating indentation level, or the string "first" indicating that all parameters of the declaration must be aligned with the first parameter.
  • body (default: 1) enforces indentation level for the body of a function declaration.
• "FunctionExpression" takes an object to define rules for function expressions.
  • parameters (off by default) enforces indentation level for parameters in a function expression. This can either be a number indicating indentation level, or the string "first" indicating that all parameters of the expression must be aligned with the first parameter.
  • body (default: 1) enforces indentation level for the body of a function expression.
• "CallExpression" takes an object to define rules for function call expressions.
  • arguments (off by default) enforces indentation level for arguments in a call expression. This can either be a number indicating indentation level, or the string "first" indicating that all arguments of the expression must be aligned with the first argument.
• "ArrayExpression" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for elements in arrays. It can also be set to the string "first", indicating that all the elements in the array should be aligned with the first element.
• "ObjectExpression" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for properties in objects. It can be set to the string "first", indicating that all properties in the object should be aligned with the first property.

Level of indentation denotes the multiple of the indent specified. Example:

• Indent of 4 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 8 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to {"var": 2, "let": 2, "const": 3} will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces for var and let, 6 spaces for const statements.
• Indent of tab with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 2 tabs.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 0 will not indent case clauses with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 1 will indent case clauses with 2 spaces with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 4 spaces with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of tab with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 2 tabs with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with MemberExpression set to 0 will indent the multi-line property chains with 0 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with MemberExpression set to 1 will indent the multi-line property chains with 2 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with MemberExpression set to 2 will indent the multi-line property chains with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 4 spaces with MemberExpression set to 0 will indent the multi-line property chains with 0 spaces.
• Indent of 4 spaces with MemberExpression set to 1 will indent the multi-line property chains with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 4 spaces with MemberExpression set to 2 will indent the multi-line property chains with 8 spaces.

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

last

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1
,
bar = 2;

var foo = 1
  , bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
           , "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

first

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1
    ,bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
          ,"oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},
    a = [];

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

This rule has an object option:

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

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

});

align

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

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

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

    }
}]*/

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

align and multiLine

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

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

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

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

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

Suggest using template literals instead of string concatenation. (prefer-template)

In ES2015 (ES6), we can use template literals instead of string concatenation.

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.

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

last

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1
,
bar = 2;

var foo = 1
  , bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
           , "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "last"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

first

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1,
    bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples",
           "oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1,
        "b:": 2
    };
}

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

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first"]*/

var foo = 1, bar = 2;

var foo = 1
    ,bar = 2;

var foo = ["apples"
          ,"oranges"];

function bar() {
    return {
        "a": 1
        ,"b:": 2
    };
}

exceptions

An example use case is to enforce comma style only in var statements.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {},
    a = [];

Examples of correct code for this rule with sample "first", { "exceptions": { … } } options:

/*eslint comma-style: ["error", "first", { "exceptions": { "ArrayExpression": true, "ObjectExpression": true } }]*/

var o = {fst:1,
         snd: [1,
               2]}
  , a = [];

When Not To Use It

This rule can safely be turned off if your project does not care about enforcing a consistent comma style.

enforce consistent indentation (indent)

There are several common guidelines which require specific indentation of nested blocks and statements, like:

function hello(indentSize, type) {
    if (indentSize === 4 && type !== 'tab') {
        console.log('Each next indentation will increase on 4 spaces');
    }
}

These are the most common scenarios recommended in different style guides:

• Two spaces, not longer and no tabs: Google, npm, Node.js, Idiomatic, Felix
• Tabs: jQuery
• Four spaces: Crockford

Rule Details

This rule enforces a consistent indentation style. The default style is 4 spaces.

Options

This rule has a mixed option:

For example, for 2-space indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", 2]
}

Or for tabbed indentation:

{
    "indent": ["error", "tab"]
}

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
  b=c;
  function foo(d) {
    e=f;
  }
}

Examples of correct code for this rule with the default options:

/*eslint indent: "error"*/

if (a) {
    b=c;
    function foo(d) {
        e=f;
    }
}

This rule has an object option:

• "SwitchCase" (default: 0) enforces indentation level for case clauses in switch statements
• "VariableDeclarator" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for var declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules for var, let and const declarations.
• "outerIIFEBody" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for file-level IIFEs.
• "MemberExpression" (off by default) enforces indentation level for multi-line property chains (except in variable declarations and assignments)
• "FunctionDeclaration" takes an object to define rules for function declarations.
  • parameters (off by default) enforces indentation level for parameters in a function declaration. This can either be a number indicating indentation level, or the string "first" indicating that all parameters of the declaration must be aligned with the first parameter.
  • body (default: 1) enforces indentation level for the body of a function declaration.
• "FunctionExpression" takes an object to define rules for function expressions.
  • parameters (off by default) enforces indentation level for parameters in a function expression. This can either be a number indicating indentation level, or the string "first" indicating that all parameters of the expression must be aligned with the first parameter.
  • body (default: 1) enforces indentation level for the body of a function expression.
• "CallExpression" takes an object to define rules for function call expressions.
  • arguments (off by default) enforces indentation level for arguments in a call expression. This can either be a number indicating indentation level, or the string "first" indicating that all arguments of the expression must be aligned with the first argument.
• "ArrayExpression" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for elements in arrays. It can also be set to the string "first", indicating that all the elements in the array should be aligned with the first element.
• "ObjectExpression" (default: 1) enforces indentation level for properties in objects. It can be set to the string "first", indicating that all properties in the object should be aligned with the first property.

Level of indentation denotes the multiple of the indent specified. Example:

• Indent of 4 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 8 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with VariableDeclarator set to {"var": 2, "let": 2, "const": 3} will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 4 spaces for var and let, 6 spaces for const statements.
• Indent of tab with VariableDeclarator set to 2 will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 2 tabs.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 0 will not indent case clauses with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 1 will indent case clauses with 2 spaces with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 4 spaces with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of tab with SwitchCase set to 2 will indent case clauses with 2 tabs with respect to switch statements.
• Indent of 2 spaces with MemberExpression set to 0 will indent the multi-line property chains with 0 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with MemberExpression set to 1 will indent the multi-line property chains with 2 spaces.
• Indent of 2 spaces with MemberExpression set to 2 will indent the multi-line property chains with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 4 spaces with MemberExpression set to 0 will indent the multi-line property chains with 0 spaces.
• Indent of 4 spaces with MemberExpression set to 1 will indent the multi-line property chains with 4 spaces.
• Indent of 4 spaces with MemberExpression set to 2 will indent the multi-line property chains with 8 spaces.

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.

"always"

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

/*eslint space-before-function-paren: "error"*/

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

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

Rule Details

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

Options

This rule has an object option:

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

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

});

align

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

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

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

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

    "align": {
        "beforeColon": true,
        "afterColon": true,

        "on": "value"
    }
}]*/

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

align and multiLine

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

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

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

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

  key4: 4 // uses multiLine
}

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

/*eslint key-spacing: ["error", {
    "multiLine": {
        "beforeColon": false,
        "afterColon":true
    },
    "align": {
        "beforeColon": true,
        "afterColon": true,
        "on": "colon"
    }
}]*/

var obj = {
    "myObjectFunction": function() {
        // Do something
    },
    "one"             : 1,
    "seven"           : 7
}

    },
    "align": {

    }

    "one"   : 1,
    "seven" : 7 // `one` and `seven` are in their own group, and therefore aligned
}

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

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

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

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

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

Rule Details

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

Examples

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

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

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

Examples of correct code for this rule:

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

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

When Not To Use It

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

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.

"always"

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

/*eslint space-before-function-paren: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/

function foo() {
    // ...

var bar = function() {
    // ...
};

var bar = function foo() {
    // ...

class Foo {
    constructor() {
        // ...

}

var foo = {
    bar() {

Comma style (comma-style)

The Comma Style rule enforces styles for comma-separated lists. There are two comma styles primarily used in JavaScript:

• The standard style, in which commas are placed at the end of the current line
• Comma First style, in which commas are placed at the start of the next line

One of the justifications for using Comma First style is that it can help track missing and trailing commas. These are problematic because missing commas in variable declarations can lead to the leakage of global variables and trailing commas can lead to errors in older versions of IE.

Rule Details

This rule enforce consistent comma style in array literals, object literals, and variable declarations.

This rule does not apply in either of the following cases:

• comma preceded and followed by linebreak (lone comma)
• single-line array literals, object literals, and variable declarations

Options

This rule has a string option:

• "last" (default) requires a comma after and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration
• "first" requires a comma before and on the same line as an array element, object property, or variable declaration

This rule also accepts an additional exceptions object:

• "exceptions" has properties whose names correspond to node types in the abstract syntax tree (AST) of JavaScript code:

  • "ArrayExpression": true ignores comma style in array literals
  • "ArrayPattern": true ignores comma style in array patterns of destructuring
  • "ArrowFunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of arrow function expressions
  • "CallExpression": true ignores comma style in the arguments of function calls
  • "FunctionDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function declarations
  • "FunctionExpression": true ignores comma style in the parameters of function expressions
  • "ImportDeclaration": true ignores comma style in the specifiers of import declarations
  • "ObjectExpression": true ignores comma style in object literals
  • "ObjectPattern": true ignores comma style in object patterns of destructuring
  • "VariableDeclaration": true ignores comma style in variable declarations

A way to determine the node types as defined by ESTree is to use the online demo.

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.

"always"

/*eslint space-before-function-paren: "error"*/

function foo() {

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.

Disallow mixes of different operators (no-mixed-operators)

Enclosing complex expressions by parentheses clarifies the developer's intention, which makes the code more readable. This rule warns when different operators are used consecutively without parentheses in an expression.

var foo = a && b || c || d;    /*BAD: Unexpected mix of '&&' and '||'.*/
var foo = (a && b) || c || d;  /*GOOD*/
var foo = a && (b || c || d);  /*GOOD*/

Rule Details

This rule checks BinaryExpression and LogicalExpression.

This rule may conflict with [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule. If you use both this and [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule together, you need to use the nestedBinaryExpressions option of [no-extra-parens](no-extra-parens.md) rule.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: "error"*/

var foo = a && b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a + b * c;

Examples of correct code for this rule:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: "error"*/

var foo = a || b || c;
var foo = a && b && c;
var foo = (a && b < 0) || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;
var foo = a && (b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0);
var foo = a + (b * c);
var foo = (a + b) * c;

        }
    ]
}

This rule has 2 options.

• groups (string[][]) - specifies groups to compare operators. When this rule compares two operators, if both operators are included in a same group, this rule checks it. Otherwise, this rule ignores it. This value is a list of groups. The group is a list of binary operators. Default is the groups for each kind of operators.
• allowSamePrecedence (boolean) - specifies to allow mix of 2 operators if those have the same precedence. Default is true.

groups

The following operators can be used in groups option:

• Arithmetic Operators: "+", "-", "*", "/", "%", "**"
• Bitwise Operators: "&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"
• Comparison Operators: "==", "!=", "===", "!==", ">", ">=", "<", "<="
• Logical Operators: "&&", "||"
• Relational Operators: "in", "instanceof"

Now, considers about {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} configure. This configure has 2 groups: bitwise operators and logical operators. This rule checks only if both operators are included in a same group. So, in this case, this rule comes to check between bitwise operators and between logical operators. This rule ignores other operators.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]} option:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"groups": [["&", "|", "^", "~", "<<", ">>", ">>>"], ["&&", "||"]]}]*/

var foo = a && b < 0 || c > 0 || d + 1 === 0;

var foo = (a & b) | c;
var foo = a & (b | c);
var foo = a + b * c;
var foo = a + (b * c);
var foo = (a + b) * c;

allowSamePrecedence

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

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"allowSamePrecedence": true}]*/

// + and - have the same precedence.
var foo = a + b - c;

Examples of incorrect code for this rule with {"allowSamePrecedence": false} option:

/*eslint no-mixed-operators: ["error", {"allowSamePrecedence": false}]*/

// + and - have the same precedence.
var foo = a + b - c;

When Not To Use It

If you don't want to be notified about mixed operators, then it's safe to disable this rule.
