The AlloyTeam ESLint config is not only a progressive ESLint config for your React/Vue/TypeScript projects but also the best reference for configuring your personalized ESLint rules.

Quick start

Please choose the following configuration based on the technology stack used by your project:

• Built-in
• React
• Vue
• TypeScript
• TypeScript React
• TypeScript Vue

Philosophy

• Let Prettier handle style-related rules
• Inherit ESLint's philosophy and help everyone build their own rules
• High degree of automation: advanced rules management, test as a document, as a website
• Keep up with the times, follow up the latest rules as soon as possible

Usage

Built-in

npm install --save-dev eslint @babel/core @babel/eslint-parser eslint-config-alloy

Create an .eslintrc.js in the root directory of your project, then copy the following content into it:

module.exports = {
  extends: [
    'alloy',
  ],
  env: {
    // Your environments (which contains several predefined global variables)
    //
    // browser: true,
    // node: true,
    // mocha: true,
    // jest: true,
    // jquery: true
  },
  globals: {
    // Your global variables (setting to false means it's not allowed to be reassigned)
    //
    // myGlobal: false
  },
  rules: {
    // Customize your rules
  },
};

React

npm install --save-dev eslint @babel/core @babel/eslint-parser @babel/preset-react@latest eslint-plugin-react eslint-config-alloy

Create an .eslintrc.js in the root directory of your project, then copy the following content into it:

module.exports = {
  extends: [
    'alloy',
    'alloy/react',
  ],
  env: {
    // Your environments (which contains several predefined global variables)
    //
    // browser: true,
    // node: true,
    // mocha: true,
    // jest: true,
    // jquery: true
  },
  globals: {

  },
  rules: {
    // Customize your rules
  },
};

Vue

npm install --save-dev eslint @babel/core @babel/eslint-parser vue-eslint-parser eslint-plugin-vue eslint-config-alloy

Create an .eslintrc.js in the root directory of your project, then copy the following content into it:

module.exports = {
  extends: [
    'alloy',
    'alloy/vue',
  ],
  env: {
    // Your environments (which contains several predefined global variables)
    //
    // browser: true,
    // node: true,
    // mocha: true,
    // jest: true,
    // jquery: true
  },
  globals: {
    // Your global variables (setting to false means it's not allowed to be reassigned)
    //
    // myGlobal: false
  },
  rules: {
    // Customize your rules
  },
};

TypeScript

npm install --save-dev eslint typescript @typescript-eslint/parser @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin eslint-config-alloy

Create an .eslintrc.js in the root directory of your project, then copy the following content into it:

module.exports = {
  extends: [
    'alloy',
    'alloy/typescript',
  ],
  env: {
    // Your environments (which contains several predefined global variables)
    //
    // browser: true,
    // node: true,
    // mocha: true,
    // jest: true,
    // jquery: true
  },
  globals: {
    // Your global variables (setting to false means it's not allowed to be reassigned)
    //
    // myGlobal: false
  },
  rules: {
    // Customize your rules
  },
};

TypeScript React

npm install --save-dev eslint typescript @typescript-eslint/parser @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin eslint-plugin-react eslint-config-alloy

Create an .eslintrc.js in the root directory of your project, then copy the following content into it:

module.exports = {
  extends: [
    'alloy',
    'alloy/react',
    'alloy/typescript',
  ],
  env: {
    // Your environments (which contains several predefined global variables)
    //
    // browser: true,
    // node: true,
    // mocha: true,
    // jest: true,
    // jquery: true
  },
  globals: {
    // Your global variables (setting to false means it's not allowed to be reassigned)
    //
    // myGlobal: false
  },
  rules: {
    // Customize your rules
  },
};

TypeScript Vue

It is recommended to use npm init vue@3 to create a project with Vue, TypeScript and ESLint integrated, and then refer to this example to adjust its ESLint configuration.

The conventional way is as follows:

npm install --save-dev @babel/core @babel/eslint-parser @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin @typescript-eslint/parser @vue/eslint-config-typescript eslint eslint-config-alloy eslint-plugin-vue vue-eslint-parser

Create an .eslintrc.js in the root directory of your project, then copy the following content into it:

module.exports = {
  extends: ['alloy', 'alloy/vue', 'alloy/typescript'],
  parser: 'vue-eslint-parser',
  parserOptions: {
    parser: {
      js: '@babel/eslint-parser',
      jsx: '@babel/eslint-parser',

      ts: '@typescript-eslint/parser',
      tsx: '@typescript-eslint/parser',

      // Leave the template parser unspecified, so that it could be determined by `<script lang="...">`
    },
  },
  env: {
    // Your environments (which contains several predefined global variables)
    //
    // browser: true,
    // node: true,
    // mocha: true,
    // jest: true,
    // jquery: true
  },
  globals: {
    // Your global variables (setting to false means it's not allowed to be reassigned)
    //
    // myGlobal: false
  },
  rules: {
    // Customize your rules
  },
};

Troubleshooting

With VSCode

Just install the ESLint extension in VSCode.

Refer to here to configure the extension.

Autofix ESLint errors on save

If you want to enable auto-fix-on-save, you need to set your .vscode/settings.json like this:

{
  "editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
    "source.fixAll.eslint": true
  },
}

With Prettier

eslint-config-alloy does not include any style-related rules in v3, so there is no need to install eslint-config-prettier. Just install prettier and related VSCode plugins.

AlloyTeam provides a set of Prettier configuration, you can create a .prettierrc to reuse it:

"eslint-config-alloy/.prettierrc.js"

A best practice for VSCode is to auto format code with Prettier and autofix errors with ESLint by setting .vscode/settings.json to this:

{
  "files.eol": "\n",
  "editor.tabSize": 2,
  "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode",
  "[jsonc]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
    "source.fixAll.eslint": true
  }
}

Scripts

# install dependencies
pnpm i
# build eslintrc like index.js, react.js, etc.
pnpm build
# run tests
pnpm test
# autofix prettier errors
pnpm prettier:fix
# check if all rules are covered
pnpm rulesCoverage
# publish new version
npm version <major|minor|patch>
git push --follow-tags
npm publish

Q & A

Why another ESLint config

Our team initially used Airbnb rules, but because it was too strict, some rules still needed to be personalized, which led to more and more changes in the future and finally decided to maintain a new set. After more than four years of maintaining, eslint-config-alloy is now very mature and progressive and has been welcomed by many teams inside and outside the company.

Why not standard

The standard specification believes that everyone should not waste time in personalized specifications, but the entire community should unify a specification. This statement makes some sense, but it runs against the ESLint's design philosophy. Don't you remember how ESLint defeated JSHint and became the most popular JS code inspection tool? It is because of the plugin and configuration that ESLint advocates, which meets the individual needs of different technology stacks of different teams.

Therefore, eslint-config-alloy also inherits the philosophy of ESLint. It will not force you to use our config. Instead, we help you to make your config by referencing our examples, tests, websites and so on.

Why not airbnb

1. eslint-config-alloy has officially maintained vue, typescript and react+typescript rules. In contrast, airbnb's vue and typescript are maintained by third parties.
2. Progressive to ensure that we can keep up with the times, as mentioned earlier
3. Convenient personalization, including explanations and website examples

Looks good, but I still choose airbnb

It's okay, eslint-config-alloy believes that different teams and projects can have different configurations from the design concept. Although you choose to use airbnb, you can still come to our website when you have personalized configuration needs.
