@carp-dk/eslint-config

This is our ESLint config used across our frontend JavaScript and TypeScript projects, including our React web apps and API wrapper.

Installation

To install this package, run the following command:

bun i -D @carp-dk/eslint-config

Publishing package

We have a GitHub workflow for doing this. Bump the package.json to the desired version, then create a release on GitHub, which will trigger the workflow for you.

Note: the NPM token is set in the [https://github.com/cph-cachet/eslint-config/settings/secrets/actions](GitHub secrets section) and has an expiry date, after which a new token needs to be created and updated.

Usage

In your .eslintrc.js file, extend our config:

module.exports = {
 parserOptions: {
    project: './tsconfig.json',
    sourceType: 'module',
    ecmaFeatures: {
      jsx: true,
    },
    ecmaVersion: 2020,
    tsconfigRootDir: __dirname,
  },
  extends: '@carp-dk'
};

Make a .prettierrc.js file:

export default [{
  "trailingComma": "es5",
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "semi": true,
  "singleQuote": true,
  "plugins": [import.meta.resolve('prettier-plugin-organize-imports')]
}]

ESLint Rules Explanation

In our ESLint configuration, we use several plugins to enforce specific coding standards and practices. Here's a brief explanation of what each plugin does:

unused-imports: This plugin helps to identify any imports that are not being used in the code. It helps to keep the code clean and efficient by removing unnecessary imports.
prettier: This plugin integrates Prettier with ESLint. Prettier is an opinionated code formatter that enforces a consistent style by parsing your code and re-printing it with its own rules.
eslint-plugin-prefer-arrow: This plugin enforces the use of arrow functions over traditional function expressions where possible. Arrow functions provide a more concise syntax and lexically bind the this value.
react-refresh: This plugin is used for fast refresh functionality in React applications. It helps to preserve the React state between hot reloads.
eslint-plugin-react: This plugin provides specific linting rules for React and JSX syntax to enforce best practices.
eslint-plugin-react-hooks: This plugin enforces the rules of Hooks. Hooks are a new addition in React that lets you use state and other React features without writing a class.
eslint-plugin-react-refresh: This plugin is used for fast refresh functionality in React applications. It helps to preserve the React state between hot reloads.
eslint-plugin-unused-imports: This plugin helps to identify any imports that are not being used in the code. It helps to keep the code clean and efficient by removing unnecessary imports.
