enforce the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes (quotes)
JavaScript allows you to define strings in one of three ways: double quotes, single quotes, and backticks (as of ECMAScript 6). For example:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var double = "double";
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `backtick`; // ES6 only
Each of these lines creates a string and, in some cases, can be used interchangeably. The choice of how to define strings in a codebase is a stylistic one outside of template literals (which allow embedded of expressions to be interpreted).
Many codebases require strings to be defined in a consistent manner.
Rule Details
This rule enforces the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes.
Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-
"double"
(default) requires the use of double quotes wherever possible -
"single"
requires the use of single quotes wherever possible -
"backtick"
requires the use of backticks wherever possible
Object option:
-
"avoidEscape": true
allows strings to use single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise -
"allowTemplateLiterals": true
allows strings to use backticks
Deprecated: The object property avoid-escape
is deprecated; please use the object property avoidEscape
instead.

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) {

}
}
This rule has an object option:
-
"SwitchCase"
(default: 0) enforces indentation level forcase
clauses inswitch
statements -
"VariableDeclarator"
(default: 1) enforces indentation level forvar
declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules forvar
,let
andconst
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

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) {

}
}
This rule has an object option:
-
"SwitchCase"
(default: 0) enforces indentation level forcase
clauses inswitch
statements -
"VariableDeclarator"
(default: 1) enforces indentation level forvar
declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules forvar
,let
andconst
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.-

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:
- The statement has an unclosed paren, array literal, or object literal or ends in some other way that is not a valid way to end a statement. (For instance, ending with
.
or,
.) - The line is
--
or++
(in which case it will decrement/increment the next token.) - It is a
for()
,while()
,do
,if()
, orelse
, and there is no{
- The next line starts with
[
,(
,+
,*
,/
,-
,,
,.
, or some other binary operator that can only be found between two tokens in a single expression.
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() {
// ...
}

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

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;
}
}

(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. -

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:

enforce the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes (quotes)
JavaScript allows you to define strings in one of three ways: double quotes, single quotes, and backticks (as of ECMAScript 6). For example:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var double = "double";
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `backtick`; // ES6 only
Each of these lines creates a string and, in some cases, can be used interchangeably. The choice of how to define strings in a codebase is a stylistic one outside of template literals (which allow embedded of expressions to be interpreted).
Many codebases require strings to be defined in a consistent manner.
Rule Details
This rule enforces the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes.
Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-
"double"
(default) requires the use of double quotes wherever possible -
"single"
requires the use of single quotes wherever possible -
"backtick"
requires the use of backticks wherever possible
Object option:
-
"avoidEscape": true
allows strings to use single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise -
"allowTemplateLiterals": true
allows strings to use backticks
Deprecated: The object property avoid-escape
is deprecated; please use the object property avoidEscape
instead.
double

Strings must use singlequote. Open

enforce the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes (quotes)
JavaScript allows you to define strings in one of three ways: double quotes, single quotes, and backticks (as of ECMAScript 6). For example:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var double = "double";
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `backtick`; // ES6 only
Each of these lines creates a string and, in some cases, can be used interchangeably. The choice of how to define strings in a codebase is a stylistic one outside of template literals (which allow embedded of expressions to be interpreted).
Many codebases require strings to be defined in a consistent manner.
Rule Details
This rule enforces the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes.
Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-
"double"
(default) requires the use of double quotes wherever possible -
"single"
requires the use of single quotes wherever possible -
"backtick"
requires the use of backticks wherever possible
Object option:
-
"avoidEscape": true
allows strings to use single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise -
"allowTemplateLiterals": true
allows strings to use backticks
Deprecated: The object property avoid-escape
is deprecated; please use the object property avoidEscape
instead.
double

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) {

}
}
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default options:
/*eslint indent: "error"*/
if (a) {

}
}
This rule has an object option:
-
"SwitchCase"
(default: 0) enforces indentation level forcase
clauses inswitch
statements -
"VariableDeclarator"
(default: 1) enforces indentation level forvar
declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules forvar
,let
andconst
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 to2
will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 8 spaces. - Indent of 2 spaces with
VariableDeclarator
set to2

enforce the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes (quotes)
JavaScript allows you to define strings in one of three ways: double quotes, single quotes, and backticks (as of ECMAScript 6). For example:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var double = "double";
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `backtick`; // ES6 only
Each of these lines creates a string and, in some cases, can be used interchangeably. The choice of how to define strings in a codebase is a stylistic one outside of template literals (which allow embedded of expressions to be interpreted).
Many codebases require strings to be defined in a consistent manner.
Rule Details
This rule enforces the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes.
Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-
"double"
(default) requires the use of double quotes wherever possible -
"single"
requires the use of single quotes wherever possible -
"backtick"
requires the use of backticks wherever possible
Object option:
-
"avoidEscape": true
allows strings to use single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise -
"allowTemplateLiterals": true
allows strings to use backticks
Deprecated: The object property avoid-escape
is deprecated; please use the object property avoidEscape
instead.
double
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "double"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double"]*/

var unescaped = 'a string containing "double" quotes';
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "double"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double"]*/

var backtick = `back\ntick`; // backticks are allowed due to newline
var backtick = tag`backtick`; // backticks are allowed due to tag
single

option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single"]*/

When Not To Use It
If you do not need consistency in your string styles, you can safely disable this rule. Source: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/

- Exclude checks
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 forcase
clauses inswitch
statements -
"VariableDeclarator"
(default: 1) enforces indentation level forvar
declarators; can also take an object to define separate rules forvar
,let
andconst
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 to2
will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 8 spaces. - Indent of 2 spaces with
VariableDeclarator
set to2
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 forvar
andlet
, 6 spaces forconst
statements. - Indent of tab with
VariableDeclarator
set to2
will indent the multi-line variable declarations with 2 tabs. - Indent of 2 spaces with
SwitchCase
set to0
will not indentcase
clauses with respect toswitch
statements. - Indent of 2 spaces with
SwitchCase
set to1
will indentcase
clauses with 2 spaces with respect toswitch
statements. - Indent of 2 spaces with
SwitchCase
set to2

Strings must use singlequote. Open

enforce the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes (quotes)
JavaScript allows you to define strings in one of three ways: double quotes, single quotes, and backticks (as of ECMAScript 6). For example:
/*eslint-env es6*/
var double = "double";
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `backtick`; // ES6 only
Each of these lines creates a string and, in some cases, can be used interchangeably. The choice of how to define strings in a codebase is a stylistic one outside of template literals (which allow embedded of expressions to be interpreted).
Many codebases require strings to be defined in a consistent manner.
Rule Details
This rule enforces the consistent use of either backticks, double, or single quotes.
Options
This rule has two options, a string option and an object option.
String option:
-
"double"
(default) requires the use of double quotes wherever possible -
"single"
requires the use of single quotes wherever possible -
"backtick"
requires the use of backticks wherever possible
Object option:
-
"avoidEscape": true
allows strings to use single-quotes or double-quotes so long as the string contains a quote that would have to be escaped otherwise -
"allowTemplateLiterals": true
allows strings to use backticks
Deprecated: The object property avoid-escape
is deprecated; please use the object property avoidEscape
instead.
double
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the default "double"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double"]*/
var single = 'single';
var unescaped = 'a string containing "double" quotes';
Examples of correct code for this rule with the default "double"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var double = "double";
var backtick = `back\ntick`; // backticks are allowed due to newline
var backtick = tag`backtick`; // backticks are allowed due to tag
single
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "single"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single"]*/
var double = "double";
var unescaped = "a string containing 'single' quotes";
Examples of correct code for this rule with the "single"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var single = 'single';
var backtick = `back${x}tick`; // backticks are allowed due to substitution
backticks
Examples of incorrect code for this rule with the "backtick"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick"]*/
var single = 'single';
var double = "double";
var unescaped = 'a string containing `backticks`';
Examples of correct code for this rule with the "backtick"
option:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick"]*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
var backtick = `backtick`;
avoidEscape
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "double", { "avoidEscape": true }
options:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double", { "avoidEscape": true }]*/
var single = 'a string containing "double" quotes';
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "single", { "avoidEscape": true }
options:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single", { "avoidEscape": true }]*/
var double = "a string containing 'single' quotes";
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "backtick", { "avoidEscape": true }
options:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "backtick", { "avoidEscape": true }]*/
var double = "a string containing `backtick` quotes"
allowTemplateLiterals
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "double", { "allowTemplateLiterals": true }
options:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "double", { "allowTemplateLiterals": true }]*/
var double = "double";
var double = `double`;
Examples of additional correct code for this rule with the "single", { "allowTemplateLiterals": true }
options:
/*eslint quotes: ["error", "single", { "allowTemplateLiterals": true }]*/
var single = 'single';
var single = `single`;
