eslint-config-21st
This package provides 21st digital's ESLint Shareable Config with support for Prettier. It is based on JavaScript Standard Style.
Install
If you don't already have a
package.json
file, create one withnpm init
.Then we need to install everything needed by the config:
npx install-peerdeps --dev @21st-digital/eslint-config
You can see in your package.json there are now a big list of devDependencies.
Create a
.eslintrc
file in the root of your project's directory (it should live where package.json does). Your.eslintrc
file should look like this:
{
"extends": ["@21st-digital"]
}
Tip: You can alternatively put this object in your package.json
under the property "eslintConfig":
. This makes one less file in your project.
- You can add two scripts to your package.json to lint and/or fix:
"scripts": {
"lint": "eslint .",
"lint:fix": "eslint . --fix"
},
- Now you can manually lint your code by running
npm run lint
and fix all fixable issues withnpm run lint:fix
. You probably want your editor to do this though.
VS Code
You probably want your editor to lint and fix for you. Here are the instructions for VS Code:
- Install the ESLint package
- Now we need to setup some VS Code settings via
Code/File
→Preferences
→Settings
. It's easier to enter these settings while editing thesettings.json
file, so click the Open (Open Settings) icon in the top right corner:
// These are all my auto-save configs
"editor.formatOnSave": true,
// turn it off for JS and JSX, we will do this via eslint
"[javascript]": {
"editor.formatOnSave": false
},
"[javascriptreact]": {
"editor.formatOnSave": false
},
// show eslint icon at bottom toolbar
"eslint.alwaysShowStatus": true,
// tell the ESLint plugin to run on save
"editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
"source.fixAll": true
},
// Optional BUT IMPORTANT: If you have the prettier extension enabled for other languages like CSS and HTML, turn it off for JS since we are doing it through Eslint already
"prettier.disableLanguages": ["javascript", "javascriptreact"],
After attempting to lint your file for the first time, you may need to click on 'ESLint' in the bottom right and select 'Allow Everywhere' in the alert window.
Finally you'll usually need to restart VS code. They say you don't need to, but it's never worked for me until I restart.
