An ESLint Shareable Config for Fullstack Education Group Students
Global installation is recommended for Fullstack Education Group students:
npm install -g eslint-config-fullstack
In your global ~/.eslintrc.json
file:
{
"extends": "fullstack"
}
Note that the eslint-config-
portion of the module name is assumed by ESLint.
A specific project can extend this definition by including eslint-config-fullstack
as a saved dependency, and a local .eslintrc.json
which { "extends": "fullstack" }
.
Any rules added to your global or local .eslintrc.json
files will override the rules defined by this package. For example:
{
"extends": "fullstack",
"rules": {
"semi": [1, "always"]
}
}
This turns on enforcing the use of semicolons, a rule which is silenced by default in the current version of the eslint-config-fullstack
package.
The ESLint linting system is a popular one for its support of ES6 syntax, pluggable rules, automatic rule names in warning messages, and shareable / extendable config files.
This npm package provides a thorough starting config file. It was developed at Fullstack Academy of Code / Grace Hopper Academy to use in an educational setting, helping students to avoid definite errors but also pick up best practices.
Because it defaults to supporting multiple environments (e.g. Node, browsers, Jasmine, Mocha, etc.) it is probably not suitable for general production, where one might want a finer-grained and more restrictive config. However it is easy to override and extend this base config with custom rules, as explained above and in the ESLint docs.
