ESLintESLint 0.23.0 released
We just pushed ESLint 0.23.0, which is a minor release upgrade. This release includes new features and bug fixes.
Highlights
This is a summary of the major changes you need to know about for this version of ESLint.
Configuration Validation
The biggest feature of this release is addition of rules configuration validation. Now if you accidentally included a non-existing option in a rule configuration you will be notified about it when you run ESLint. This also works for inline configuration inside JavaScript files and for configuration passed on command line.
Note that prior to this release, invalid rule options meant the rule would use its default options. This would happen without any warning, so improperly configured rules weren’t working as intended in previous releases. If you start getting warned about invalid rule configuration, be sure to consult the rule documentation to determine how to fix it.
New Rules
Three new rules were added in this release
computed-property-spacing- require or disallow padding inside computed properties (off by default)prefer-const- suggest using ofconstdeclaration for variables that are never modified after declared (off by default)spaced-comment- require or disallow a space immediately following the//or/*in a comment (off by default)
